A measurement of the cross section for e + e - → hadrons using 11 000 hadronic decays of the Z boson at ten different center-of-mass energies is presented. A three-parameter fit gives the following values for the Z mass M z , the total width Γ z , the product of the electronic and hadronic partial widths Γ e Γ h , and the unfolded pole cross section σ 0 : M Z =91.171±0.030(stat)±0.030 (beam) GeV, Γ Z =2.511±0.065 GeV, Γ e Γ h =0.148±0.006 (stat.)±0.004 (syst.) GeV 2 , σ 0 =41.6±0.7(stat.)±1.1 (syst.) nb,

Measurements of Charged Particle Inclusive Distributions in Hadronic Decays of the $Z$ Boson

Abrams, G.S. ; Adolphsen, Chris ; Averill, D. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.Lett. 64 (1990) 1334, 1990.
Inspire Record 283799 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.19999

We have measured inclusive distributions for charged particles in hadronic decays of the Z boson. The variables chosen for study were charged-particle multiplicity, scaled momentum, and momenta transverse to the sphericity axes. The distributions have been corrected for detector effects and are compared with data from e+e− annihilation at lower energies and with the predictions of several QCD-based models. The data are in reasonable agreement with expectations.

Determination of $\alpha^- s$ From a Differential Jet Multiplicity Distribution at {SLC} and {PEP}

Inspire Record 283630 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.19937

We measured the differential jet-multiplicity distribution in e+e− annihilation with the Mark II detector. This distribution is compared with the second-order QCD prediction and αs is determined to be 0.123±0.009±0.005 at √s≊MZ (at the SLAC Linear Collider) and 0.149±0.002±0.007 at √s=29 GeV (at the SLAC storage ring PEP). The running of αs between these two center-of-mass energies is consistent with the QCD prediction.

Measurements of Z Boson Resonance Parameters in e+ e- Annihilation

Abrams, G.S. ; Adolphsen, Chris ; Averill, D. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.Lett. 63 (1989) 2173, 1989.
Inspire Record 281818 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.20033

We have measured the mass of the Z boson to be 91.14±0.12 GeV/c2, and its width to be 2.42−0.35+0.45 GeV. If we constrain the visible width to its standard-model value, we find the partial width to invisible decay modes to be 0.46±0.10 GeV, corresponding to 2.8±0.6 neutrino species, with a 95%-confidence-level upper limit of 3.9.

The two-jet differential cross section d3σ(p¯p→jet 1+jet 2+X)/dEtdη1dη2, averaged over -0.6≤η1≤0.6, at √s =1.8 TeV, has been measured in the Collider Detector at Fermilab. The predictions of leading-order quantum chromodynamics for most choices of structure functions show agreement with the data.

First Measurements of Hadronic Decays of the $Z$ Boson

Phys.Rev.Lett. 63 (1989) 1558, 1989.
Inspire Record 282670 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.20044

We have observed hadronic final states produced in the decays of Z bosons. In order to study the parton structure of these events, we compare the distributions in sphericity, thurst, aplanarity, and number of jets to the predictions of several QCD-based models and to data from lower energies. The data and models agree within the present statistical precision.
