Phys.Rev.Lett. 55 (1985) 923, 1985.
Inspire Record 214874 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.20302

We have observed Λc baryons in nonresonant e+e− annihilation at energies around s=10.5 GeV through their decay to Λπ+π+π−. We measure the branching fraction to be (2.8 ± 0.7 ± 1.1)%. The momentum spectrum of the Λc is similar to that of charmed mesons, providing a constraint on models of charmed-quark hadronization.

The Production of Massive Muon Pairs in $\pi^-$ Nucleus Collisions

Greenlee, H.B. ; Frisch, Henry J. ; Grosso-Pilcher, C. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.Lett. 55 (1985) 1555, 1985.
Inspire Record 17013 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.20316

We present measurements of the differential cross section for the production of massive muon pairs in 225-GeV/c π−-nucleus collisions. We have used the data between the ψ and ϒ resonances in the framework of the Drell-Yan quark-antiquark annihilation model to predict the behavior of the cross section in the high-mass (mμμ>11 GeV/c2) region. The data are consistent with this extrapolation provided that a QCD leading-logarithmic evolution is included in the structure functions.

Inspire Record 216822 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.15884

We have studied the inclusive production of strange meson and baryon resonances in 360 GeV/cpp interactions. Cross sections forK*+(892) andK*−(892) are estimated to be 4.42±0.62 mb and 2.54±0.47 mb respectively and those for∑+(1385) and∑−(1385) are 0.67±0.11 mb and 0.26±0.07 mb respectively. Longitudinal and transverse momentum distributions forK*(892) and Σ(1385) are presented, as well as for their decay productsK0 and Λ. An estimation is given on theK*(1430) and∑*(1915) productions.

We have measured the inclusive cross-section for π0 production at large transverse momentum by 200 GeV/c positive and negative hadron beams on Carbon targets (2.9<PT<6 GeV/c; −0.4<y*<1.2). We used the NA3 spectrometer at the CERNSPS.

Hadron Production in $e^+ e^-$ Annihilation at $\sqrt{s}=29$-{GeV}

Phys.Rev.D 35 (1987) 2639, 1987.
Inspire Record 215848 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.23381

Data from the High Resolution Spectrometer at the SLAC storage ring PEP have been used to study the inclusive production of baryons and mesons. Time-of-flight measurements are used to identify the charged hadrons. Neutral hadrons are identified from effective-mass peaks associated with their decay into two charged particles. Cross sections and other inclusive production characteristics are presented for π±, K±, and K0 (K¯0) mesons, and for the baryons (antibaryons) p (p¯) and Λ (Λ¯). The ratio of the inclusive cross section to the point cross section for the K0 and K¯0 mesons is R(K0,K¯0)=6.15±0.13±0.25, and for Λ and Λ¯, R(Λ,Λ¯)=0.846±0.036±0.085. The neutral-hadron differential cross sections are compared with the predictions of the Lund string model.

The production properties of a sample of 172 charged intermediate vector bosons produced at the CERN Super Proton Synchrotron Collider are described. The production cross-section, the longitudinal- and transverse-momentum distributions and the properties of hadronic jet activity produced in association with the weak bosons are in agreement with the expectations of the QCD-improved Drell-Yan mechanism.

Tau Lepton Production and Decay at {PETRA} Energies

The JADE collaboration Bartel, W. ; Becker, L. ; Cords, D. ; et al.
Phys.Lett.B 161 (1985) 188, 1985.
Inspire Record 220695 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.30350

The production and decay of τ-pairs was studied with the JADE detector at PETRA at center-of-mass energies of 30 ⩽√ s ⩽ 46.78 GeV. The total production cross section for τ-pairs agreed with QED predictions to order α 3 . Lower limits on QED cut-off parameters of Λ + > 285 GeV and Λ − > 210 GeV at 95% confidence level were ontained. The decay branching fractions into one and three charged particles were determined to be (86.1 ± 0.5 ± 0.9)% and (13.6±0.5 ±0.80)%. In the angular distributions a forward-backward asymmetry was observed, from which the axial-vector weak charge to the τ was determined to be a τ = −0.74 ± 0.22 in agreement with the standard model. An analysis of the process e + e − → τ + τ − γ showed agreement with QED calculations to O(α 3 ).

Measurement of the s**(1/2) Dependence of Jet Production at the CERN anti-p p Collider

The UA2 collaboration Appel, J.A. ; Bagnaia, P. ; Banner, M. ; et al.
Phys.Lett.B 160 (1985) 349, 1985.
Inspire Record 216590 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.30354

The production of very large transverse momentum ( p T ) hadron jets has been measured in the UA2 experiment at the CERN p p Collider for s =630 GeV . The inclusive jet production cross sections exhibit a p T -dependent increase with respect to the s =546 GeV data from previous Collider runs. This increase can be described both by QCD calculations and by approximate x T =2 p T /√ s scaling. No significant deviation of the data from QCD predictions is observed at very large p T , placing a lower limit on the characteristic scale Λ c of a hypothetical superstrong contact interaction responsible for the binding of preons in the quark ( Λ c >370 GeV at 95% CL).
