Coherent Dissociation of Neutrons on Nuclei at 100 GeV/c to 300 GeV/c

Mollet, W. ; Biel, J. ; Ferbel, T. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.Lett. 39 (1977) 1646, 1977.
Inspire Record 121537 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.20983

We have studied the coherent dissociation of neutrons into pπ− systems, for a variety of nuclear targets, at incident momenta up to 300 GeV/c. Using a model incorporating both electromagnetic and hadronic production, we have extracted total cross sections for scattering of unstable pπ− systems on nucleons.

201 GeV/c Proton Proton Elastic Scattering at Large Momentum Transfer

Hartmann, J.L. ; Orear, J. ; Vrieslander, J. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.Lett. 39 (1977) 975, 1977.
Inspire Record 120624 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.20930

Proton-proton elastic scattering has been measured in the region 4.9<|t|<12.1 GeV2 at a beam momentum of 201 GeV/c. If the form exp(At) is fitted to the data, the exponent A gradually changes from 1.5 to 0.9 GeV−2 over our t range. The data are consistent with the form exp(−6.6p⊥). A comparison with intersecting storage ring results shows that in this kinematical region the slopes are about the same, but dσdt at fixed t is still dropping with energy.

anti-p p Interactions at 2.32-GeV/c

Phys.Rev.D 17 (1978) 42, 1978.
Inspire Record 5667 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.24405

A bubble-chamber experiment based on 304 000 events of p¯p interactions at 2.32 GeV/c is described. The film was automatically scanned and measured by the POLLY II system. Details of the data-analysis methods are given. We report results on cross sections for constrained final states, tests of C invariance, and inclusive pion and ρ0 multiplicity parameters for annihilation final states.

Inclusive Production of Lambda0 Hyperons by 300-GeV Protons: A-Dependence

Heller, Kenneth J. ; Skubic, P. ; Overseth, O.E. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.D 16 (1977) 2737, 1977.
Inspire Record 5680 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.24477

Inclusive production of Λ0 hyperons by 300-GeV protons has been measured at fixed production angles in the laboratory between 0 and 9 mrad and laboratory momenta from 65 to 300 GeV/c. Three different solid targets were used: beryllium, copper, and lead. The A dependence of the data is suggestive of a collision model in which the hadron loses energy and gains transverse momentum as it leaves the nucleus. The experimental results are compared to such a model, and the implications are discussed.

Search for D0 (1865) Mesons Produced in Association with Prompt Muons in Hadronic Interactions

Spelbring, D. ; Gobbi, B. ; Keren, J. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.Lett. 40 (1978) 605, 1978.
Inspire Record 121095 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.42612

We present the results of a search at Fermilab for the charmed meson, D∘(1865), produced in association with a prompt muon by 300-GeV/c neutrons. We observe no significant enhancement in high-mass K±π∓ systems and report, at the 95% confidence level, an upper limit of 200 nb/nucleon for the production of a pair of charmed particles and their subsequent decay into a K±π∓ state and a prompt muon.

Search for Leptons Produced in Association with Prompt Muons in Hadronic Interactions

Lipton, R. ; Gobbi, B. ; Keren, J. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.Lett. 40 (1978) 608, 1978.
Inspire Record 121096 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.42602

We present the results of a search for leptons produced in coincidence with a prompt muon in neutron-beryllium collisions at 300 GeV/c. The experiment was sensitive to trigger muons and associated leptons of both low momentum and low transverse momentum. A clear μ±μ∓ signal was found, but no significant μ±e∓ signal was observed. We report an upper limit for associated charmed-particle production [σCC¯·B(C→μ+X)·B(C→e+X)] of < 340 nb/nucleon, at the 95% confidence level.

D Meson Production and Decay in e+ e- Annihilation at 4.03-GeV and 4.41-GeV Center-Of-Mass Energy

Piccolo, M. ; Peruzzi, I. ; Luth, V. ; et al.
Phys.Lett.B 70 (1977) 260-264, 1977.
Inspire Record 120147 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.27527

Decay modes of the charmed mesons, D 0 and D + , are studied in e + e − annihilation data at 4.03 and 4.41 GeV c.m. energy. The products of cross section times branching ratio are measured for the K − π + , K − π + π + π − , K S π + π − and K − π + π + final states. Upper limits are established for the Cabibbo forbidden decays via π + π − , K + K − , K + K − π + , K + π + π − and π + π − π + . The K − π + π + π − final state is shown to be dominated by K − π + ρ 0 .

Properties of the Hadronic System Resulting from anti-Muon-neutrino p Interactions

Derrick, M. ; Gregory, P. ; Hyman, L.G. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.D 17 (1978) 1, 1978.
Inspire Record 120660 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.24454

The properties of the final-state hadronic system in antineutrino-proton charged-current interactions are presented. The events were observed in the Fermilab 15-foot hydrogen bubble chamber. The average energy of the events is ∼30 GeV, but there are some interactions beyond 100 GeV. The mean multiplicity of the charged hadrons varies as 〈nCH〉=(0.06±0.06)+(1.22±0.03)lnW2 for hadronic masses W in the range 1.0<W2<50 GeV2. By contrast, the multiplicity depends only weakly on the four-momentum transfer between the leptons. The mean pion multiplicities for events with three or more charged tracks are found to be 〈n−〉=1.64±0.04, 〈n0〉=1.16±0.13, for π− and π0 production, respectively. By comparing the number of positive tracks with π− data from neutrino production, we deduce a mean proton multiplicity 〈np〉 of 0.53 ± 0.15. The single-particle distributions in both longitudinal and transverse momentum are found to be similar to those for nondiffractive production in hadronic collisions. The fragmentation properties of the final-state d quarks are compared to the expectations of the quark-parton model. The fraction of observed neutral-strange-particle production for events with three or more charged tracks is 0.08 ± 0.015 and is consistent with coming completely from associated production.
