The angular distribution and the s dependence of the total cross section for the process e + e − → μ + μ − have been measured using the JADE detector at PETRA. After radiative corrections, a forward-backward asymmetry of −(11.8±3.8) % was observed at an average centre of mass energy of 33.5 GeV. For comparison, an asymmetry of −7.8 % is expected on the basis of the standard Glashow-Salam-Weinberg model.

Experimental Study of Differential Cross-sections in Charged Current Neutrino and Anti-neutrinos Interactions

The CHARM collaboration Jonker, M. ; Panman, J. ; Udo, F. ; et al.
Phys.Lett.B 109 (1982) 133-140, 1982.
Inspire Record 168613 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.6668

Inclusive neutrino and antineutrino charged-current interactions were studied using the electronic detector of the CHARM Collaboration exposed to the narrow-band beam of the CERN SPS. The relative contributions of quarks and antiquarks to the neutrino cross sections were deduced from the differential cross sectionsdσ/d y . The x and Q 2 dependence of the structure functions F 2 and F 3 were measured. Scaling violations were observed, in qualitative agreement with QCD. A value of the mass scale parameter of QCD,Λ = [0.29 ± 0.12 (stat.) ± 0.10 (syst.)] GeV, was deduced in a leading-order approximation, following the method of Buras and Gaemers.

Hadron Production by e+ e- Annihilation at Center-Of-Mass Energies Between 2.6 GeV and 7.8 GeV: Part 1. Total Cross-Section, Multiplicities and Inclusive Momentum Distributions

Phys.Rev.D 26 (1982) 969, 1982.
Inspire Record 169326 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.23889

Measurements of multihadron production in e+e− annihilation at center-of-mass energies between 2.6 and 7.8 GeV are presented. Aside from the narrow resonances ψ(3095) and ψ(3684), the total hadronic cross section is found to be approximately 2.7 times the cross section for the production of muon pairs at c.m. energies below 3.7 GeV and 4.3 times the muon-pair cross section at c.m. energies above 5.5 GeV. Complicated structure is found at intermediate energies. Charged-particle multiplicities and inclusive momentum distributions are presented.

Multiplicity Distributions in Anti-muon Neutrino $p$ Interactions

Derrick, M. ; Gregory, P. ; LoPinto, F. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.D 25 (1982) 624, 1982.
Inspire Record 11189 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.23975

We present the multiplicity distributions of the hadrons produced in antineutrinoproton interactions. The data sample, which consists of 2025 charged-current events with antineutrino energy greater than 5 GeV, comes from exposures of the 15-foot hydrogen bubble chamber to the broad-band antineutrino beam at Fermilab. The distribution in hadronic mass W has an average value of 3.7 GeV but extends up to 10 GeV. The mean multiplicity of charged hadrons depends on the hadronic mass W and varies as 〈nch〉=(−0.44±0.13)+(1.48±0.06)lnW2 for W2>4 GeV2. The mean multiplicities for events with three or more charged tracks averaged over the total data sample are 〈n−〉=1.68±0.03 and 〈n0〉=1.11±0.07 for π− and π0 production, respectively. The mean π0 multiplicity is found to increase slowly with n−. The integrated correlation coefficient f2−− and the dispersion D− are given as a function of n−. When compared to the distributions characteristic of other leptonic and hadronic reactions, we find a similarity between the ν¯ data and results from hadronic reactions that have no diffractive component. Multiplicity data for the heavier particles K0, ρ0, and Λ are also summarized. The pion multiplicities in the current fragmentation region exceed those for the target fragmentation at all W values. They also satisfy the isospin relation 2〈n0〉=〈n+〉+〈n−〉 required for the fragmentation of an I=12 quark when a W>4 GeV selection is imposed.

Inclusive Production of Lambdas and Anti-lambdas in $\gamma p$ Interactions for Photon Energies Between 25-{GeV} and 70-{GeV}

The Bonn-CERN-Ecole Poly-Glasgow-Lancaster-Manchester-Orsay-Paris-Rutherford-Sheffield collaboration Aston, D. ; Atkinson, M. ; Bailey, R. ; et al.
Nucl.Phys.B 195 (1982) 189-202, 1982.
Inspire Record 167734 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.34176

Results are presented on the inclusive photoproduction of λ and λ for incident photon energies between 25 and 70 GeV. The slope parameter of the p T 2 distribution is found to be 2.83±0.1 GeV −2 for λ and 3.28±0.25 GeV −2 for λ . The x F distributions, measured in the range −0.2 to 0.7, show that while λ are produced centrally, λ production extends to more negative values of x F ; the shapes show no energy dependence and are similar to those in pion-induced reactions. The polarization of the produced λ is less than 10%. The results are discussed in terms of vector dominance and quark fusion models.

Measurement of the Ratios of $\bar{\nu}_\mu n$ to $\bar{\nu}_\mu p$ Charged Current Cross-sections at High-energies

Allasia, D. ; Angelini, C. ; Baldo-Ceolin, M. ; et al.
Phys.Lett.B 107 (1981) 148-152, 1981.
Inspire Record 167732 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.39982

From the analysis of 5630 v υ and of 1372 v π charged current interactions, obtained in the BEBC bubble chamber filled with deuterium and exposed to the CERN wide band antineutrino beam, the ratios of cross section on neutron and photon targets have been measured and found to be R  σ ν)/σ v p = 0.51 ± 0.01 (±0.03) , and R  σ( ν n )/σ( v p ) = 22.2 ± 0.12 (±0.25) The dependence of these ratios on the x scaling variable shows, in a direct way, that the momentum distribution of the majority quark, u p ( x ) = d n ( x ), is broader than that of the minority quark, u n ( x ) = d p ( x ).

Dimuon Scaling Comparison at 44-{GeV} and 62-{GeV}

Antreasyan, D. ; Becker, U. ; Bellettini, G. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.Lett. 48 (1982) 302, 1982.
Inspire Record 168182 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.20610

Measurements of pp→μ+μ−+X at s=44 and 62 GeV are compared. The data are taken under identical conditions utilizing clean proton-proton collisions from the CERN intersecting storage rings and confirm scaling to 5%. The observed μ+μ− yield is a factor of 1.6±0.2 larger than estimated from a simple parton model but is consistent with QCD. The pT dependence of the muon pairs agrees well with expectations from QCD.

First Measurement of the Photon Structure Function F2

Phys.Lett.B 107 (1981) 168-172, 1981.
Inspire Record 167681 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.31043

Using data taken at PETRA we present results on deep inelastic electron photon scattering at momentum transfers 1 < Q 2 < 15 GeV 2 . The results are expressed in terms of the photon structure function F 2 and are compared with QCD predictions and “hadronic” models of the photon. The pointlike component of the photon is found to be dominant.
