Measurement of the anti-p p Total Cross-Section at s**(1/2) = 1.8-TeV

The E710 collaboration Amos, Norman A. ; Avila, C. ; Baker, W.F. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.Lett. 63 (1989) 2784, 1989.
Inspire Record 281851 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.19995

We have measured the antiproton-proton total cross section at √s =1.8 TeV at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider; the value obtained is 78.3±5.9 mb. B, the nuclear slope parameter for elastic scattering, was measured to be 16.3±0.5 (GeV/c)−2. From these data, we derive a value for the total elastic cross section.

$\bar{p} p$ Annihilation Into $\pi^+ \pi^-$ and $K^+ K^-$ From Atomic $p$ States

The ASTERIX collaboration Doser, M. ; Botlo, M. ; Ahmad, S. ; et al.

Inspire Record 261310 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.37012

We have obtained the branching ratios for p p annihilation at rest into π + π − and K + K − in a pure p p initial angular momentum state L = 1. A gaseous hydrogen target at normal pressure and temperature was used and events associated with transitions of the antiprotonic atom to the 2p level were selected by detecting the Balmer X-ray series. The branching ratios for p p annihilation into π + π − and K + K − from the 2p state are (4.81 ± 0.49) × 10 −3 and (2.87 ± 0.51) × 10 −4 , respect The pion yield is slightly larger than in liquid hydrogen, where L = 0 annihilation dominates, while the kaon yield is suppressed by a factor of four. Using these and previous data, we derive the branching ratios for pp annihilation into all ππ and K K modes from S and P states. A measurement in gaseous hydrogen, without X-ray requirement, yields the branching ratios (4.30 ± 0.14) × 10 −3 and (6.92 ± 0.41) × 10 −4 . With the known branching ratios of (3.33 ± 0.17) × 10 −3 and (1.01 ± 0.05) × 10 −3 in liquid hydrogen, we find that (50.3 ± 6.4)% of all annihilations in gas at NTP occur in the initial angular momentum state L = 1.

Analysis of the Highest Transverse Energy Events Seen in the UA1 Detector at the S $p \bar{p}$ S Collider

The UA1 collaboration Albajar, C. ; Albrow, M.G. ; Allkofer, O.C. ; et al.
Z.Phys.C 36 (1987) 33, 1987.
Inspire Record 248074 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.15751

This is the first full solid angle analysis of large transverse energy events in\(p\bar p\) collisions at the CERN collider. Events with transverse energies in excess of 200 GeV at\(\sqrt s= 630 GeV\) are studied for any non-standard physics and quantitatively compared with expectations from perturbative QCD Monte Carlo models. A corrected differential cross section is presented. A detailed examination is made of jet profiles, event jet multiplicities and the fraction of the transverse energy carried by the two jets with the highest transverse jet energies. There is good agreement with standard theory for events with transverse energies up to the largest observed values\(( \approx \sqrt {s/2} )\) and the analysis shows no evidence for any non-QCD mechanism to account for the event characteristics.

Phys.Lett.B 194 (1987) 563-567, 1987.
Inspire Record 253124 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.30120

p̄p total cross sections have been measured from 220 to 413 MeV/ c in small (⩽ 10 MeV/ c ) steps of momentum with statistics of ± 0.5 %. There is no evidence for structure in the cross section, and a limit of 8 mb MeV/ c 2 is set with 90% confidence on the strength of any narrow resonance down to 250 MeV/ c .

Antiproton-proton cross sections at 200 and 900 {GeV} c.m. energy

The UA5 collaboration Alner, G.J. ; Ansorge, R.E. ; Asman, B. ; et al.
Z.Phys.C 32 (1986) 153-161, 1986.
Inspire Record 229896 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.15857

Data on antiproton-proton cross sections at the c.m. energies 200 and 900 GeV are presented. The data were obtained at the CERN antiproton-proton Collider operated in a new pulsed mode in which the same beams were accelerated and decelerated between beam energies of 450 and 100 GeV. The properties of the machine determine the ratio of the luminosities at the two energies to about 1% and thus an accurate measurement of the ratioR of the inelastic cross sections could be made. We findR (=σ900/σ200)=1.20±0.01±0.02, where the first error is statistical and the second systematic. Interpolating existing data to estimateσine1(200 GeV) this measurement ofR leads toσine1(900 GeV)=50.3+0.4+1.0 mb. Using an extrapolated value ofσe1/σtot we estimate the total cross section at 900 GeV to be 65.3±0.7±1.5 mb. Both the inelastic and total cross sections are compatible with a ln2s dependence. Comparisons are made with different fits to the total cross section energy dependence.

Scaling Violations in Multiplicity Distributions at 200-GeV and 900-GeV

The UA5 collaboration Alner, G.J. ; Ansorge, R.E. ; Asman, B. ; et al.
Phys.Lett.B 167 (1986) 476-480, 1986.
Inspire Record 220002 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.30284

New data are presented on charged particle multiplicity distributions for non single-diffractive events produced at CM energies s = 200 and 900 GeV . The data were obtained at the CERN antiproton-proton collider operated in a new pulsed mode. The multiplicity distributions are very well described by a negative binomial distribution. The highest energy data show no sign of approaching scaling, confirming our earlier results on the breaking of KNO scaling. The energy variation of the average charged multiplicity can be fitted to a quadratic in ln s or a s 0.13 dependence.

Measurement of Small Angle anti-Proton - Proton and Proton Proton Elastic Scattering at the CERN Intersecting Storage Rings

Amos, Norman A. ; Block, M.M. ; Bobbink, G.J. ; et al.
Nucl.Phys.B 262 (1985) 689-714, 1985.
Inspire Record 214689 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.33711

Antiproton-proton and proton-proton small-angle elastic scattering was measured for centre-of-mass energies s =30.6, 52.8 and 62.3 GeV at the CERN Intersectung Storage Rings. In addition, proton-proton elastic scattering was measured at s =23.5 GeV . Using the optical theorem, total cross sections are obtained with an accuracy of about 0.5% for proton-proton scattering and about 1% for antiproton-proton scattering. The measurement of the interference of the Coulomb scattering and the hadronic scattering permits a determination of the ratio of the real-to-imaginary part of the forward hadronic scattering amplitude. Also presented are measurements of the hadronic slope parameter.

Search for narrow structure in proton‐antiproton annihilation cross sections from 1900 to 1960 MeV

Lowenstein, D.I. ; Pealsee, D.C. ; Miller, R.J. ; et al.
Phys.Lett.B 158 (1985) 505-510, 1985.
Inspire Record 221435 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.30389

The p̄p annihilation cross section has been measured with good resolution (∼2 MeV rms) in the mass range 1900–1960 MeV. No narrow structures are seen, the 90% confidence level upper limit being 8–12 mb‐MeV for the integrated area of a resonance in this mass range. However, we do not rule out a very narrow bump‐dip structure seen in an earlier experiment in the 1935–1941 MeV mass interval. The data also do not support the existence of a broad structure previously reported at 1937 MeV.

Fit of form A + B/D gives A = 8.5 +- 2.5mb and B = 40.7 +- 1.3mb in the mass range 1900 to 1960 MeV.


Measurement of the Proton - anti-Proton Total and Elastic Cross-Sections at the CERN SPS Collider

The UA4 collaboration Bozzo, M. ; Braccini, P.L. ; Carbonara, F. ; et al.
Phys.Lett.B 147 (1984) 392-398, 1984.
Inspire Record 203148 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.49643

The proton-antiproton total cross section was measured at the CM energy √s = 546 GeV . The result is σ tot = 61.9± 1.5 mb . The ratio of the elastic to the total cross section is σ e ℓ / σ tot = 0.215±0.005. A comparison to the lower energy data shows that the increase of the total cross section with energy is very close to a log 2 s behaviour.
