Measurement of Neutrino - Proton and anti-neutrino - Proton Elastic Scattering

Ahrens, L.A. ; Aronson, S.H. ; Connolly, P.L. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.D 35 (1987) 785, 1987.
Inspire Record 18763 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.23350

Measurements of the semileptonic weak-neutral-current reactions νμp→νμp and ν¯μp→ν¯μp are presented. The experiment was performed using a 170-metric-ton high-resolution target detector in the BNL wide-band neutrino beam. High-statistics samples yield the absolute differential cross sections dσ(νμp)/dQ2 and dσ(ν¯μp)/dQ2. A measurement of the axial-vector form factor GA(Q2) is also presented. The results are in good agreement with the standard model SU(2)×U(1). The weak-neutral-current parameter sin2thetaW is determined to be sin2θW=0.220±0.016(stat)−0.031+0.023(syst).

Energy Dependence of Spin Effects in $p$ (Polarized) $p$ (Polarized) $\to p p$

Court, G.R. ; Crabb, D.G. ; Gialas, I. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.Lett. 57 (1986) 507, 1986.
Inspire Record 229812 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.20190

We measured the analyzing power A and the spin-spin correlation parameter Ann, in large-P⊥2 proton-proton elastic scattering, using a polarized-proton target and the polarized-proton beam at the Brookhaven Alternating-Gradient Synchrotron. We also used our polarimeter to measure A at small P⊥2 at 13 GeV with good precision and found some deviation from the expected 1Plab behavior. At 18.5 GeV/c we found Ann=(−2±16)% at P⊥2=4.7 (GeV/c)2. Comparison with lower-energy data from the Argonne Zero-Gradient Synchrotron shows a sharp and surprising energy dependence for Ann at large P⊥2.

Test of Charge Symmetry in Neutron - Proton Elastic Scattering at 477-{MeV}

Abegg, R. ; Bandyopadhyay, D. ; Birchall, J. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.Lett. 56 (1986) 2571, 1986.
Inspire Record 228239 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.20237

An experiment resulting in the first measurement of the isospin-mixing, charge-symmetry-violating component of the n−p interaction has been performed. The experiment determined the difference in the angles of the zero crossing of the neutron and proton analyzing powers An and Ap at 477 MeV. In terms of the laboratory scattering angle of the neutron, the measured difference is θ0n(An)−θ0n(Ap)=+0.13° ±0.06° (±0.03°), where the second error is a worst-case estimate of systematic error. The resulting difference in the analyzing powers at the zero-crossing angle is An−Ap=+0.0037 ±0.0017 (±0.0008).

Measurement of the Analyzing Power for $p p$ (Polarized) $\to p p$ at $p^-$transverse**2 = 6.5-{GeV}/$c^2$

Cameron, P.R. ; Crabb, D.G. ; DeMuth, G.E. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.D 32 (1985) 3070, 1985.
Inspire Record 216507 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.23543

The spin analyzing power A in 28-GeV/c proton-proton elastic scattering was measured at P⊥2=6.5 (GeV/c)2 using a polarized proton target and a high-intensity unpolarized proton beam at the Brookhaven National Laboratory Alternating Gradient Synchrotron. The result of (24±8)% confirms that the analyzing power is large and rising in the large-P⊥2 region.

Lifetimes, Cross-sections and Production Mechanisms of Charmed Particles Produced by 20-{GeV} Photons

The SLAC Hybrid Facility Photon collaboration Abe, K. ; Armenteros, R. ; Bacon, T.C. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.D 33 (1986) 1, 1986.
Inspire Record 214735 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.23544

Seventy-one events containing charmed-particle decays have been observed in an experiment using the SLAC Hybrid Facility exposed to a backward-scattered photon beam. Several improvements were made to the apparatus since the previous experiment on charm photoproduction. Results for the charmed-meson lifetimes are consistent with the published results from the previous experiment and the two data samples have been combined yielding a total sample of 136 charm events. After imposing rigorous cuts, 50 neutral, 48 charged, and 2 charged/neutral ambiguous decays remain. From these, the charmed-meson lifetimes are measured to be &=(8.6±1.3−0.3+0 .7)×10−13 sec, &=(6.1±0.9±0.3)×10 −13 sec, and their ratio &=1.4±0.3− 0.1+0.2. The total charm cross section at a photon energy of 20 GeV has been measured to be (62±8−10+15) nb. There is evidence for both DD¯X and D¯Λc+X production with σD¯Λc+X/σcharm=(71± 11±6)%.

Inclusive Photoproduction of Strange Baryons at 20-{GeV}

The SLAC Hybrid Facility Photon collaboration Abe, K. ; Armenteros, R. ; Bacon, T.C. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.D 32 (1985) 2869-2882, 1985.
Inspire Record 213727 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.23548

Cross sections are presented for the inclusive photoproduction of KS0, Λ, Λ¯, Ξ−, Ξ¯−, Σ0, and Σ*±(1385) at 20 GeV. An upper limit to Ω− production is also given. The data come from 284 000 hadronic events photoproduced in the SLAC 1-m hydrogen-bubble-chamber hybrid facility exposed to a nearly monochromatic, polarized 20-GeV backscattered photon beam. A comparison of the KS0, Λ, Λ¯, and Ξ− rates per inelastic event to π±p data show that γp rates are consistent with being higher than the π±p rates, providing evidence of an ss¯ component of the photon. The pair cross sections for KS0KS0, KS0Λ, KSoΛ¯, and ΛΛ¯ are presented. The xF distributions of the Λ, Λ¯, and Ξ− are compared to a quark-diquark fusion model, giving information on strange-baryon photoproduction mechanisms.

Search for narrow structure in proton‐antiproton annihilation cross sections from 1900 to 1960 MeV

Lowenstein, D.I. ; Pealsee, D.C. ; Miller, R.J. ; et al.
Phys.Lett.B 158 (1985) 505-510, 1985.
Inspire Record 221435 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.30389

The p̄p annihilation cross section has been measured with good resolution (∼2 MeV rms) in the mass range 1900–1960 MeV. No narrow structures are seen, the 90% confidence level upper limit being 8–12 mb‐MeV for the integrated area of a resonance in this mass range. However, we do not rule out a very narrow bump‐dip structure seen in an earlier experiment in the 1935–1941 MeV mass interval. The data also do not support the existence of a broad structure previously reported at 1937 MeV.

Fit of form A + B/D gives A = 8.5 +- 2.5mb and B = 40.7 +- 1.3mb in the mass range 1900 to 1960 MeV.


MEASUREMENT OF P (POLARIZED) P (POLARIZED) ---> P P WITH A 16.5-GEV/C POLARIZED PROTON BEAM

Brown, K.A. ; Bruni, R.J. ; Cameron, P.R. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.D 31 (1985) 3017-3020, 1985.
Inspire Record 220234 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.23579

Using the new Brookhaven Alternating Gradient Synchrotron polarized proton beam and our polarized proton target, we measured the spin-spin correlation parameter Ann in 16.5-GeV/c proton-proton elastic scattering. We found an Ann of (6.1±3.0)% at P⊥2=2.2 (GeV/c)2. We also measured the analyzing power A in two independent ways, providing a good test of possible experimental errors. Comparing our new data with 12-GeV Argonne Zero Gradient Synchrotron data shows no evidence for strong energy dependence in Ann in this medium-P⊥2 region.
