Production of pi0 Mesons in K+ p Interactions at 8.2-GeV/c

Bartke, J. ; Eskreys, A. ; Figiel, J. ; et al.

Acta Phys.Polon.B 5 (1974) 689, 1974.

Inspire Record 90280 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.51679

Experimental results on $\pi^0$ production in $K^+$p interactions at 8.2 GeV/$c$ incident momentum are presented. Average $\pi^0$ multiplicities for given prong numbers are evaluated. They are consistent both with the corresponding results for pp interactions at 12 GeV/$c$ chosen for comparison because they have the same average prong number) and with a model where total multiplicity distributions are calculated from the Czyżewski--Rybicki formula and the charge branching ratios from the statistical model. Some averages over the $\pi^0$ momentum distribution are also evaluated. In particular it is found that $\pi^0$-s produced in two prong interactions go predominantly forward.

Charged Multiplicity of Hadronic Events Containing Heavy Quark Jets

Rowson, P.C. ; Trilling, G. ; Abrams, G.S. ; et al.

Phys.Rev.Lett. 54 (1985) 2580-2583, 1985.

Inspire Record 212819 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.20380

The charged-particle multiplicities of hadronic events deriving from produced bottom or charm quarks have been measured in the Mark II detector at PEP in e+e− annihilation at 29GeV. For events containing one semileptonic and one hadronic weak decay, we find multiplicities of 15.2±0.5±0.7 for bottom and 13.0±0.5±0.8 for charm. The corresponding multiplicities of charged particles accompanying the pair of heavy hadrons are 5.2±0.5±0.9 for bottom, and 8.1±0.5±0.9 for charm.

CHARGED PARTICLE MULTIPLICITIES IN PI-, K- AND ANTI-P INTERACTIONS WITH NUCLEI AT 40-GEV/C

Inspire Record 214970 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.22350

Interactions of 40 GeV/c πp-,K− and$\bar p$ on Li, C, S, Cu, CsI and Pb were studied with the RISK-streamer chamber spectrometer. We present multiplicities of negatively charged particles, as well as of protons, and the correlations between them. The normalized mean multiplicity of negative particles,R−, depends on$\bar v$, the average number of inelastic collisions as$R^ -= (0.73 \pm 0.04) + (0.34 \pm 0.02)\bar v$. The dependence of the normalized dispersion of negative particles,D−/<N−>, on the number of protons favours independent collision models and contradicts the coherent tube picture. The excess of fast positive particles behaves asA0.4 and shows, for the heavier nuclei, a clear correlation with identified protons.

Study of inclusive gamma and pi0 production in 12.4-gev/c p p interactions

Campbell, J.H. ; Charlton, G. ; Engelmann, R. ; et al.

Phys.Rev.D 8 (1973) 3824-3828, 1973.

Inspire Record 93275 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.22002

From an exposure of the Argonne National Laboratory 12-foot bubble chamber to a beam of 12.4-GeV/c protons we have obtained a 3649-event sample of the reaction pp→γ+anything, where we observe photon conversions into e+e− pairs in the liquid hydrogen. We find that the invariant cross section for this reaction does not separate in its x and P⊥ dependence at our energy. By setting upper bounds on the cross sections for inclusive η and Σ0 production, we show that π0 decay is the dominant source of photons and therefore measure the cross section for inclusive π0 production to be σ(π0)=(31.5±2.6) mb. Comparison with the inclusive π+ and π− cross sections at 12.0 GeV/c shows that the relation 2σ(π0)=σ(π+)+σ(π−) is well satisfied. We confirm earlier indications that the average number of π0's per inelastic pp interaction is approximately independent of the number of associated charged particles produced.

Light particle emission induced by stopped anti-protons in nuclei: Energy dissipation and neutron to proton ratio

Polster, D. ; Hilscher, D. ; Rossner, H. ; et al.

Phys.Rev.C 51 (1995) 1167-1180, 1995.

Inspire Record 404997 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.25959

Simultaneous measurements of inclusive energy spectra and multiplicities of π±, K±, n, p, d, and t following antiproton annihilation on nuclei over a wide energy range and in the case of neutrons down to the evaporative part of the spectra are reported. Thirteen targets in the mass range of A=12–238 were used in a target mass dependent investigation of the fast stage of the antiproton-nucleus interaction. The deduced transferred, preequilibrium and equilibrium excitation energies agree very well with the dynamical picture drawn by the intranuclear cascade model (INC). Ratios of directly emitted neutrons to protons have been determined to be about twice the N/Z ratio in the target nucleus nearly independently of its mass. These unexpected values for this new sensitive observable are not completely understood in the standard framework of INC. Possible effects of isospin and nucleon densities as well as further schemes beyond the INC are discussed.

Evidence for Dominant Vector Meson Production in Inelastic Proton Proton Collisions at 53-GeV Center-of-Mass Energy

Jancso, G. ; Albrow, M.G. ; Almehed, S. ; et al.

Nucl.Phys.B 124 (1977) 1-11, 1977.

Inspire Record 119346 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.35433

The Split Field Magnet facility at the CERN ISR has been used to measure inclusive resonance production in inelastic p-p collisions at a c.m. energy of 53 GeV. The mass spectrum of pairs of oppositely charged hadrons shows a strong correlation, which can be explained as a consequence of dominant vector meson production, accounting for more than 60% of all pions and kaons produced.
