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.

$D$ Meson Production From 400 GeV/$c p p$ Interactions

The LEBC-EHS collaboration Aguilar-Benitez, M. ; Allison, W.W.M. ; Bailly, J.L. ; et al.
Phys.Lett.B 189 (1987) 476, 1987.
Inspire Record 245101 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.12913

We have measured the inclusive production properties of D and D messons produced from pp interactions at s =27.4 GeV . The differential production cross section is well represented by the empirical form d 2 σ d x F d P 2 T = 1 2 [σ ( D / D )(n+1)b](1−|x F |) n exp (−bp 2 T ) with n=4.9 ± 0.5, b=(1.0±0.1)( GeV /c) −2 , and the inclusive D / D cross section σ ( D / D ) is (30.2±3.3) ωb. The QCD fusion model predicts D / D production which is in good agreement with our data except for the magnitude of the cross section which depends sensitively on the assumed mass of the charm quark.

High-energy Photoproduction of Large Transverse Momentum $\pi^0$ Mesons: A Quantitative Test of {QCD}

The NA14 collaboration Auge, E. ; Barate, R. ; Bloch, D. ; et al.
Phys.Lett.B 168 (1986) 163-169, 1986.
Inspire Record 227057 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.30278

The first results on inclusive photoproduction of π 0 at transverse momenta up to 4 GeV/ c , using incident γ energies between 50 and 150 GeV are presented. A comparison is made with inclusive π 0 production obtained, in the same experiment, with incident π − . Using the π − data to parametrize the hadronic behaviour of the photon, significant differences are observed in quantitative agreement with QCD Compton scattering and corrections thereof.

Charm Hadron Properties in 360-GeV/c $\pi^-$ p-Interactions

The LEBC-EHS collaboration Aguilar-Benitez, M. ; Allison, W.W.M. ; Bailly, J.L. ; et al.
Z.Phys.C 31 (1986) 491-511, 1986.
Inspire Record 214935 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.15883

A study of the properties of charm particles produced in 360 GeV/c π-p interactions is reported. The experiment was performed using the high resolution hydrogen bubble chamber LEBC in association with the European Hybrid Spectrometer at the CERN SPS. Details of the exposure and operation of the spectrometer are given and the methods used to extract the charm data are presented. The essential physics results on the decay properties (lifetime, branching ratios) as well as on the hadroproduction properties (cross sections forD,\(\bar D\),F, Λc,D, correlations between charm particles) are given.

Observation of Xi- Production in $p \bar{p}$ Interactions at 540-{GeV} {CMS} Energy

The UA5 collaboration Alner, G.J. ; Alpgard, K. ; Anderer, P. ; et al.
Phys.Lett.B 151 (1985) 309-314, 1985.
Inspire Record 204764 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.30437

We have made the first observations of Ξ − production in p p interactions at √ s =540 GeV. In a sample of 6964 non single-diffractive events we observe 17 Ξ − decays with an estimated background of less than one event. This corresponds to 0.04 ± 0.01 Ξ − per event in the transverse momentum range p t >1.0 GeV/ c and in the pseudorapidity range |η| < 3.5. Assuming an exponential p t distribution, we find 〈 p t 〉=1.1 −0.2 +0.3 GeV/ c .

Measurement of Very Large Transverse Momentum Jet Production at the CERN anti-p p Collider

Phys.Lett.B 138 (1984) 430-440, 1984.
Inspire Record 199645 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.30574

The production of very large transverse momentum hadron jets has been measured in the UA2 experiment at the CERN p p Collider for s = 540 GeV using a highly segmented calorimeter. The range of previously available cross sections for inclusive jet production is extended to p T = 150 GeV and the two-jet invariant mass distribution to m jj = 280 GeV with the largely increased data sample collected during the 1983 running period. The results are compared with the predictions of QCD models.

The intermediate and forward gamma detectors of EHS are used to reconstructπ°'s produced by 360 GeV/cpp interactions in the Rapid Cycling Bubble Chamber (RCBC). Using thepp forwardbackward symmetry, the inclusiveπ° production cross section is obtainedσπ°=(132±11) mb. The averageπ° multiplicity is determined as a function of the charged particle multiplicity. The (1−x) dependence is given for differentpT regions.

Inclusive π 0 production has been measured at the CERN pp̄ collider, s =540 GeV , for 90° production angle and in a range of transverse momenta between 1.5 and 4.5 GeV/ c . The invariant production cross section is larger than that measured at s = 53 GeV for p-p collisions. The production of μ mesons aand of direct photons is also investigated.
