The OPAL collaboration Akwawy, M.Z. ; Alexander, G. ; Allison, J. ; et al.

Phys.Lett.B 257 (1991) 531-540, 1991.

Inspire Record 302587 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.29464

The cross section of the pure QED process e + e − → γγ has been measured using data accumulated during the 1989 and 1990 scans of the Z 0 resonance at LEP. Both the energy dependence and the angular distribution are in good agreement with the QED prediction. Upper limits on the branching ratios of Z 0 → γγ , Z 0 → π 0 γ and Z 0 → ηγ have been set at 1.4×10 −4 , 1.4×10 −4 and 2.0×10 −4 respectively. Lower limits on the cutoff parameters of the modified electron propagator have been found to be Λ + > 117 GeV and Λ − > 110 GeV. The reaction e + e − → γγγ has also been studied and was found to be consistent with the QED prediction. An upper limit on the branching ratio of Z 0 → γγγ has been set at 6.6 × 10 −5 . All the limits are given at 95% confidence level.

A Study of the Reaction $e^+ e^- \to \gamma \gamma$ at {LEP}

The OPAL collaboration Akrawy, M.Z. ; Alexander, G. ; Allison, J. ; et al.

Phys.Lett.B 241 (1990) 133-140, 1990.

Inspire Record 294809 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.29717

The pure QED reaction e + e − → γγ has been studied at centre of mass energies around the mass of the Z 0 boson using data recorded by the OPAL detector at LEP. The results are in good agreement with the QED prediction. Lower limits on the cutoff parameters of the modified electron propagator are found to be Λ + >89 GeV and Λ. The lower limit on the mass of an excited electron is 82 GeV assuming the coupling constant λ =1. Upper limits on the branching ratios of Z 0 → γγ , Z 0 → π 0 γ and Z 0 → ηγ are set at 3.7×10 −4 , 3.9×10 −4 and 5.8×10 −4 respectively. Two events from the reaction e + e − → γγγ have been observed, consistent with the QED prediction. An upper limit on the branching ratio of Z 0 → γγγ is set at 2.8×10 −4 . All the limits are given at 95% confidence level.

Differential and Channel Cross-sections for the Reactions $K^0_L P \to K^0_S P$ and $K^0_L P \to \Lambda^0 \pi^+$ in the Center-of-mass Energy Range 1605-{MeV} to 1910-{MeV}

Corden, M.J. ; Cox, G.F. ; Kelsey, D.P. ; et al.

Inspire Record 7734 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.34677

The differential and channel cross sections have been measured for the reactions K L 0 p → K S 0 p and K L 0 p → Λ 0 π + in nine energy intervals in the c.m. range 1605 to 1910 MeV. The regeneration reaction is a combination of the KN amplitudes (with I = 0 and 1) and the K N amplitude ( I = 1) and is very sensitive to the various KN phase-shift solutions, some of which show an exotic I = 0, P 1 resonance. Our results have been expressed in terms of frequency distributions and cross sections, normalised by the Λ 0 π + reaction. These results have been compared with the predictions of various partial-wave analyses. Qualitatively we can eliminate the P 1 non-resonant solution, though no solution correctly predicts our results.

Measurement of K- p Elastic Differential Cross-Sections Between 610-MeV/c and 943-MeV/c

Adams, C.J. ; Davies, J.D. ; Dowell, J.D. ; et al.

Nucl.Phys.B 96 (1975) 54-66, 1975.

Inspire Record 2402 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.31930

Measurements of K − p elastic scattering have been carried out at 14 momenta between 610 MeV/ c and 943 MeV/ c over the angular range −0.9 < cos θ < 0.9. The results agree well with the best existing data and have significantly smaller errors.

K+ p elastic scattering between 432 and 939 mev/c and phase shift analysis

Adams, C.J. ; Cox, G.F. ; Davies, J.D. ; et al.

Nucl.Phys.B 66 (1973) 36-77, 1973.

Inspire Record 94900 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.32390

Measurements of K + p elastic scattering have been carried out at 13 momenta between 432 MeV/ c and 939 MeV/ c using spark chambers. The data establish unambiguously the constructive interference of the Coulomb and nuclear amplitudes at 432 MeV/ c . The elastic cross section is found to be independent of momentum through the range covered. The phase shifts for S, P, D and F waves are obtained in an energy dependent analysis in which higher waves are held at theoretical values. The initial behaviour ofthe P, D and F amplitudes is quite close to that predicted by the calculation of the peripheral partial waves. Only the P3 and D5 amplitudes become strikingly different with increasing momentum.
