We report on the results at ADONE to study the properties of the newly found 3.1-BeV particle.

We have observed a very sharp peak in the cross section for e+e−→hadrons, e+e−, and possibly μ+μ− at a center-of-mass energy of 3.105±0.003 GeV. The upper limit to the full width at half-maximum is 1.3 MeV.
No description provided.
We have observed 1085 events of the type e + e − → hadrons, in the total centre-of-mass energy range √ s = 1.2 to 3.0 GeV. The energy dependence of the total annihilation cross-section, parametrized in the form σ ( e + e − → hadrons ) = A · s n , is measured to be n = -(1.54 −0.29 +0.17 ) in the above energy range.

New results on the multihadron production by electron and positron beams colliding with a total energy of up to 3 GeV are reported. Disregarding possible kaon final states, the ratio σ mh / σ μμ of the total multihadron cross-section to the point-like cross section for process e + e − → μ + μ − has an average value of 1.58 ± 0.25 in the energy interval 2.6–3.0 GeV. The average charged multiplicity over this energy range is 〈 n c 〉 = 2.9 ± 0.3.
AT A MEAN ENERGY OF 2.85 GEV, THE AVERAGE MULTIHADRON CROSS SECTION IS 16.4 +- 2.6 NB (R = 1.58 +- 0.25).
We have observed a second sharp peak in the cross section for e+e−→hadrons at a center-of-mass energy of 3.695±0.004 GeV. The upper limit of the full width at half-maximum is 2.7 MeV.

Multiple particle production in electron-positron interactions has been observed in an experiment performed at Adone, the Frascati 2×1.5 GeV e+e− storage ring. A total number of 239 events collected at several energies of the incident electron and positron beams between 0.8 and 1.0 GeV were analysed. The distribution of the multiplicity of charged particles produced in the final state is discussed and some upper limits on these multiplicities are reported. The observed lower limit to the total cross-section for multiple particle production in e+e− interactions, averaged over the energy range explored, is 3·10−32 cm2 with a statistical error of ±10% and a systematic uncertainty of ±25%.
