Total cross sections of π+ and π− mesons on protons and deuterons have been measured in a transmission experiment to relative accuracies of ±0.2% over the laboratory momentum range 0.46-2.67 GeV/c. The systematic error is estimated to be about ±0.5% over most of the range, increasing to about ±2% near both ends. Data have been obtained at momentum intervals of 25-50 MeV/c with a momentum resolution of ±0.6%. No new structure is observed in the π±p total cross sections, but results differ in several details from previous experiments. From 1-2 GeV/c, where systematic erros are the smallest, the total cross section of π− mesons on deuterons is found to be consistently higher than that of π+ mesons by (1.3±0.3)%; about half of this difference may be understood in terms of Coulomb-barrier effects. The πd and πN total cross sections are used to check the validity of the Glauber theory. Substantial disagreements (up to 2 mb) are observed, and the conclusion is drawn that the Glauber theory is inadequate in this momentum range.

Two Particle Correlations in Inclusive and Semiinclusive pi- p Reactions at 200-GeV/c

Biswas, N.N. ; Bishop, J.M. ; Cason, N.M. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.Lett. 35 (1975) 1059, 1975.
Inspire Record 2906 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.3351

Significant two-particle correlations of dynamical origin are observed in 200 GeV/c π−p inclusive interactions. This is demonstrated by comparison with kinematic correlations calculated from an independent-particle-emission model. Two distinct correlation types are observed: (a) unlike-particle correlations with correlation length ∼ 1.3 rapidity units independent of azimuthal separation, and (b) like-particle correlations with correlation length ∼ 0.4 rapidity units which are observed only for small azimuthal separations.

We have measured the production cross section for K s 0 in e + e − annihilation from 3.6 to 5.0 GeV center of mass energy. A substantial increase of the K s 0 yield is observed around 4 GeV in qualitative agreement with the charm hypothesis.

Inclusive J/psi Production in e+ e- Annihilation in the Energy Range from 4.0-GeV to 5.0-GeV

Phys.Lett.B 68 (1977) 283, 1977.
Inspire Record 119149 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.27565

We report on inclusive production of J ψ (3.1)-mesons observed in e + e − -annihilation in the energy range s = 4.0–5.0 GeV . After substraction of the radiative tail of the ψ(3.7) direct production of the J ψ (3.1) is found to be in the order of 0.1% of the total hadronic cross section. No enhancements are seen at s = 4.03 GeV and 4.4 GeV. The level is in agreement with expectations from violation of the Zweig-rule.

We have searched for production of charmed mesons in the reaction π−+N→D*−+X, D*−→π−+D¯0, D¯0→K++π− at a beam momentum of 10.5 GeV/c. We measure the cross section times branching ratio to be 7±20 nb/nucleon.

Measurements of the Photon Total Cross-Section on Protons from 18-GeV to 185-GeV

Inspire Record 129172 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.3355

The photon total cross section on protons has been measured with high precision in the Fermilab tagged-photon beam for photon energies from 18 to 185 GeV. The cross section decreases to a broad minimum near 40 GeV, and then rises by about 4 μb over the remainder of the range. A ρ+ω+ϕ vector-dominance model (normalized to low-energy data) falls below the high-energy results by 2 to 6 μb, suggesting a contribution from charm-anticharm states.

Prompt dimuon production has been measured. Events with mass up to 25 GeV/c2 are observed, as well as the J and ϒ resonances. Cross sections are given for J and ϒ production. For the continuum, the scaling function F(τ) is measured at very small values of τ=ms covering the range 0.05<τ<0.20.

The production of J/ψ by π ± , K ± , p and p¯ incident on tungsten at 39.5GeV/ c beam momentum has been studied. Production of ψ' (3700) by π ± was also observed. The J/ψ relative particle/a ntiparticle cross-sections for x F 0 are σ(σ + ) σ(σ − =( are σ(σ ± )/σ(σ − )=(1.01±0.06), σ(K + )/σ(K) − )=(0.29±0.07) and σ(p) /σ(p¯)= (0.1+-0.03). The small p/p¯ and K + /K − cross-section ratios indicate the importance of valence quarks in the production process.

Inclusive dimuon production by 39.5 GeV/ c π ± , K ± , p and p¯ is described for masses greater than 2.0 GeV/ c 2 . The π − , π + and (π − − π + ) continuum cross-sections exceed the naive Drell-Yan predictions by a factor ∼2.4. The pion valence structure function has been measured and is consistent with a corresponding measurement at 200 GeV/ c .

Experimental Results on $J/\psi$ Production by $\pi^\pm$, $K^\pm$, $p$ and $\bar{p}$ Incident on Hydrogen at 39.5-{GeV}/$c$

Phys.Lett.B 98 (1981) 220-224, 1981.
Inspire Record 155716 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.5488

J/ ψ production at 40 GeV/ c by π ± , K ± , p and p incident on hydrogen has been studied and results compared with those obtained on tungsten in the same experiment. On hydrogen, J/ψ cross-section ratios relative to π − have been measured to be (for x F > 0) σ(π − ) : σ(π + ) : σ( p ) : σ( p ) = 1 : (0.78 ± 0.09) : (0.83 ± 0.35) : (0.07 ± 0.04) . The suppression of the proton induced cross sections shows the importance of calence quark-antiquark fusiin J/ψ production at this energy (i.e. M J 2 / ψ / s =0.13).
