We report on the results of the study of e + e − collisions at the highest PETRA energy of √ s = 31.57 GeV, using the 4π sr, electromagnetic and calorimetric detector Mark J. Based on 88 hadron events, and an integrated luminosity of 243 nb −1 we obtain R = σ (e + e − → hadrons)/ σ (e + e − → μ + μ − ) = 4.0 ± 0.5 (statistical) ± 6 (systematic). The R value, the measured thrust distribution and average spherocity show no evidence for the production of new quark flavors.

Measurements of the Polarization of Protons from Deuteron Photodisintegration

The polarization of the proton produced by the photodisintegration of the deuteron has been measured at several angles for photon energies between 170 and 450 MeV. The polarization is found to be around -0.20 (Basel convention) for 90° c.m. and photon energies between 200 and 300 MeV. This is in reasonable agreement with a calculation by D. George based upon the Austern model. However, the calculation fails to explain the strong increase in polarization with increasing photon energies. At a photon energy of 450 MeV and 90° c.m. the proton polarization is as large as -0.60.

Positive-Pion Production Asymmetry with Polarized Bremsstrahlung Near Second Resonance

The azimuthal asymmetry Σ=(σ⊥−σII)(σ⊥+σII) in π+ photoproduction by linearly polarized bremsstrahlung was measured at photon energies from 475 to 750 MeV at 90° and 135° in the center-of-mass system. The experimental results show that even in this energy region, π+ are produced predominantly in the plane of the magnetic vector.

Positron-Proton Scattering

The importance of two-photon exchange in elastic electron-proton scattering was investigated by measuring the ratio of positron-proton to electron-proton scattering. Four-momentum transfers as large as 0.756 (BeV/c)2 (19.5 F−2) were used. The data indicate that two-photon effects are (4.0±1.5)% larger than those predicted by the radiative corrections at the highest momentum transfers attained in these experiments. The two-photon corrections predicted using a static charge distribution fit the data well at lower momentum transfers and forward angles, but appear to be small at higher momentum transfers and backward angles.

Charged-Pion Photoproduction from Deuterium with Polarized Bremsstrahlung

Measurements have been made on the ratio of pion-production cross sections at right angles to and along the photon electric-field vector. The positive and negative pions were first momentum-analyzed and counted by means of a counter telescope. Data have been taken at 45, 90, and 135° in the c.m. system, and at proton energies of 225, 330, and 450 MeV. A comparison of the data is made with the dispersion-relation calculation of McKinley.
