EXPERIMENTAL SEARCH FOR NARROW RESONANCES IN THE REACTION PI- P ---> GAMMA GAMMA N AT 13-GEV/C

Chiang, I.H. ; Johnson, R.A. ; Kwan, B.P. ; et al.
Phys.Lett.B 140 (1984) 145-148, 1984.
Inspire Record 206508 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.30553

Using a double arm electromagnetic calorimeter we have searched for narrow states produced in the exclusive reaction π − p→γγn at 13 GeV/c. No enhancements were observed in the mass range 2.0–4.0 GeV/c 2 . For example, the 90% confidence limit on η c production is σ ( π − p→ η c n)× B ( η c → γγ ) < 44 pb.

Rapidis, P.A. ; Feldman, G.J. ; Abrams, G.S. ; et al.
Phys.Lett.B 84 (1979) 507-510, 1979.
Inspire Record 133123 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.27331

Inclusive momentum and energy spectra of neutral and charged D-mesons produced in e + e − annihilation at energies near 7 GeV are presented. The slope of the energy spectrum is similar to the charged pion spectrum at the same energy. The inclusive cross section σ(e + e − → D or D + anything) at 7 GeV is 4.8±1.3 nb.

Inclusive Production of $D$ and $K$ Mesons in $e^+ e^-$ Annihilation

Piccolo, M. ; Peruzzi, I. ; Rapidis, P.A. ; et al.
Phys.Lett.B 86 (1979) 220-224, 1979.
Inspire Record 141018 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.27301

We present measurements of the cross section for inclusive D and K meson production in e + e − annihilation in the center of mass energy range 3.6 to 5.8 GeV. D production accounts for most of the increase in the total cross section for hadron production in e + e − annihilation at energies above 4 GeV.

Scharre, D.L. ; Fong, A. ; Pun, T. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.Lett. 41 (1978) 1005, 1978.
Inspire Record 130859 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.20888

We have measured inclusive γ and π0 production in multiprong events produced by e+e− annihilation in the center-of-mass energy range 4.9 to 7.4 GeV. We find the π0 inclusive cross section to be consistent in shape and normalization with half the charged-π cross section between x=0.15 and 0.60, with an integrated inclusive cross-section ratio of σ(π0)|σ(π+)+σ(π−)|=0.47±0.10.

Inclusive Baryon Production in e+ e- Annihilation

Piccolo, M. ; Peruzzi, I. ; Luke, D. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.Lett. 39 (1977) 1503, 1977.
Inspire Record 121395 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.20965

The inclusive production of antiprotons and Λ's in e+e− annihilation has been measured as a function of the c.m. energy in the range 3.7-7.6 GeV. We find that the baryon cross section has a behavior different from the total hadronic production. Our results show a rapid rise in the ratio σp¯σμμ between 4.4 and 5 GeV, consistent with what would be expected from charmed baryon production. Λ¯ production is 10-15% of p¯ production at all energies.

We observe a resonance in the total cross section for hadron production in e+e− annihilation at a mass of 3772±6 MeV/c2 having a total width of 28±5 MeV/c2 and a partial width to electron pairs of 370±90 eV/c2.

Study of D Mesons Produced in the Decay of the psi-prime-prime (3772)

Phys.Rev.Lett. 39 (1977) 1301, 1977.
Inspire Record 120878 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.21003

From a study of D mesons produced in the decay ψ(3772)→DD¯, we have determined the masses of the D0 and D+ mesons to be 1863.3±0.9 MeV/c2 and 1868.3±0.9 MeV/c2, respectively. Under the assumption that the ψ(3772) has a definite isospin and decays only to DD¯, the D0 branching fractions to K−π+, K¯0π+π−, and K−π+π−π+ are (2.2±0.6)%, (4.0 ± 1.3)%, and (3.2±1.1)% and the D+ branching fractions to K¯0π+ and K−π+π+ are (1.5±0.6)% and (3.9±1.0)%.

Inspire Record 228262 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.23503

We have searched for exclusive hadronic J/ψ production by looking for narrow resonances in the e+e− mass spectrum of the reaction π−p→e+e−n. No events were observed in the region around 3.1 GeV/c2. The cross section for the reaction π−p→J/ψ n at 13 GeV/c is no more than 103 pb at the 90% confidence level.

Inclusive Electron Production in Multiprong Events Produced by $e^+ e^-$ Annihilation

Feller, J.M. ; Litke, A. ; Madaras, R. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.Lett. 40 (1978) 1677, 1978.
Inspire Record 129962 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.38080

We have measured inclusive electron production in multiprong events produced by e+e− annihilation in the center-of-mass energy range 3.9-7.4 GeV. We find the electron momentum spectra are consistent with the electrons coming mainly from decays of charmed particles, with a smaller contribution from decays of the τ lepton. From our data we calculate the average branching ratio for charmed particles to decay into an electron plus additional particles to be (8.2±1.9)%.

A new precise measurement of |V_{cb}| and of the branching ratio BR(\bar{B^0} -> D^{*+} \ell^- \bar{\nu_\ell}) has been performed using a sample of about 5000 semileptonic decays \bar{B^0} -> D^{*+} \ell^- \bar{\nu_\ell}, selected by the DELPHI detector at LEP I by tagging the soft pion from D^{*+} -> D^0 \pi^+. The results are: V_{cb}=(39.0 +/- 1.5 (stat.) ^{+2.5}_{-2.6} (syst. exp.) +/- 1.3 (syst. th.)) x 10^{-3} BR(\bar{B^0} -> D^{*+} \ell^- \bar{\nu_\ell})=(4.70 +/- 0.13 (stat.) ^{+0.36}_{-0.31} (syst. exp.))% The analytic dependences of the differential cross-section and of the Isgur Wise form factor as functions of the variable w = v_{B^0}.v_{D^*} have also been obtained by unfolding the experimental resolution.
