A Search for the Top and $b^\prime$ Quarks in Hadronic $\Z^0$ Decays

The OPAL collaboration Akrawy, M.Z. ; Alexander, G. ; Allison, J. ; et al.
Phys.Lett.B 236 (1990) 364-374, 1990.
Inspire Record 283784 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.29702

We report on a search for new quarks in hadronic Z° decays. From the event shape analysis of a data sample containing 2185 multihadronic annihilation events, we observe no evidence for the top or b' quarks. We derive limits for the top and b' quark masses under the assumption of various possible standard model and non-standard model decay schemes. Our search is sensitive to quark masses larger than 23 GeV/ c 2 ; it yields the following lower limits at a 95% confidence level: 44.5 GeV/ c 2 for the top quark mass and 45.2 GeV/ c 2 for the b′ quark mass.

Measurement of the Z0 Mass and Width with the OPAL Detector at LEP

The OPAL collaboration Akrawy, M.Z. ; Alexander, G. ; Allison, J. ; et al.
Phys.Lett.B 231 (1989) 530-538, 1989.
Inspire Record 282821 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.29757

We report an experimental determination of the cross section for e + e − → hadrons from a scan around the Z 0 pole. On the basis of 4350 hadronic events collected over seven energy points between 89.26 GeV and 93.26 GeV we obtain a mass of m z =91.01±0.05±0.05 GeV, and a total decay width of Γ z =2.60±0.13 GeV. In the context of the standard model t these results imply 3.1 ± 0.4 neutrino generations.

Studies of Jet Production Rates in $e^+ e^-$ Annihilation at $e$({CM}) = 29-{GeV}

Bethke, S. ; Abrams, G. ; Adolphsen, C.E. ; et al.
Z.Phys.C 43 (1989) 325, 1989.
Inspire Record 277772 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.15472

Production rates of multijet hadronic final states are studied ine+e− annihilation at 29 GeV center of mass energy. QCD shower model calculations with exact first order matrix element weighting at the first gluon vertex are capable of reproducing the observed multijet event rates over a large range of jet pair masses. The method used to reconstruct jets is well suited for directly comparing experimental jet rates with parton rates calculated in perturbative QCD. Evidence for the energy dependene of αs is obtained by comparing the observed production rates of 3-jet events with results of similar studies performed at higher center of mass energies.

Limits on $J/\psi$ and $\Upsilon$ Production in $e^+ e^-$ Interactions at $\sqrt{s}=29$-{GeV}

Matteuzzi, C. ; Abrams, G.S. ; Amidei, D. ; et al.
Phys.Lett.B 129 (1983) 141-144, 1983.
Inspire Record 189580 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.30662

A search has been made for the inclusive production of J ψ (3.1) and ϒ (9.4) mesons in e + e − interactions at 29 GeV, via their decay into two leptons. No signal is observed in the J ψ region, nor in the ϒ region. The limits on the cross sections are σ ( e + e − → ψX ) < 4.4 × 10 −36 cm 2 , and σ ( e + e − → ϒX ) < 4.7 × 10 −36 cm 2 . The same data yield limits on the branching ratios for the b quark BR ( b → ψX ) < 4.9% and BR ( b → ℓ + ℓ − X ) < 0.8%.

Electroproduction of $\pi^0$ Mesons in the Resonance Region at $q^2=1.0$-{GeV}/$c^2$

Latham, A. ; Allison, John ; Booth, I. ; et al.
Nucl.Phys.B 189 (1981) 1-14, 1981.
Inspire Record 155783 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.43833

Data are presented for the reaction ep → ep π 0 at a nominal momentum transfer squared of 1.0 (GeV/ c ) 2 . The data were obtained using an extracted electron beam from NINA and two magnetic spectrometers for coincidence detection of the electron and proton. Differential cross sections have been measured for isobar masses in the range 1.19–1.73 GeV/ c 2 .
