We present a measurement of the production of muon pairs in 194 GeV/c π−-tungsten interactions. A sample of 155,000 events with mass higher than 4.07 GeV/c2 has been used to determine the differential cross-section as a function of the scaling variables\(\sqrt \tau\) andxF.

The $\Upsilon$ region has been excluded. The integrated luminosity is $L = (8.58 \pm 0.53)\times 10^{37}$ [cm$^2$/W nucleus]$^{-1}$. Note that these data have been re-analysed by the NA10 experimenters using a better estimate of Fermi motion effects (see Tables 11-19 of this record).

A MEASUREMENT OF THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE SINGLE NUCLEON CROSS-SECTIONS FOR j / psi MUOPRODUCTION IN IRON AND IN H-2, D-2 TARGETS

The cross sections for J ψ production have been measured in interactions of 280 GeV μ + on hydrogen and deuterium (H, D) and also in interactions of 250 GeV μ + on iron. The single-nucleon cross sections in iron are found to be larger than those in H, D. The mean ratio of the iron to H, D photoproduction cross sections in the range 60 < v < 200 GeV is 1.45 ±0.12 (statistical) ±0.22 (systematic error). Within the framework of the photon-gluon fusion model, this indicates that the gluon density per nucleon is ∼45% larger in iron than in H, D in the range 0.026 < x < 0.085, on a mass scale Q 2 eff ∼M 2 J ψ .

The differential cross section of the reactione+e−→e+e− at a c.m. energy of 34.7 GeV has been measured. The result, together with our previously measurede+e−→α+α− data, are compared with the standard model predictions. We obtain for the weak neutral current couplings the valuesgv2=0.09×0.06,ga2=0.38×0.08. A fit of the Weinberg mixing angle gives the valuegv2=0.09×0.06,ga2=0.038×0.08. The data are also used to set limits on possible deviations from the pointlike structure of leptons. An upper limit for thee+e− coupling to a heavy spin 0 boson is also given.

Precision Measurement of the Total Cross-section for $e^+ e^- \to$ Hadrons at a Center-of-mass Energy of 29-{GeV}

Inspire Record 206052 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.4048

We report a high-precision measurement of the ratio R of the total cross section for e+e−→hadrons to that for e+e−→μ+μ−, at a center-of-mass energy of 29.0 GeV using the MAC detector. The result is R=3.96±0.09. This value of R is used to determine a value of the strong coupling constant αs of 0.23±0.06, nearly independent of fragmentation models. Two different analysis methods having quite different event-selection criteria have been used and the results are in agreement. Particular attention has been given to the study of systematic errors. New higher-order QED calculations are used for the luminosity determination and the acceptance for hadrons.

Neutral kaon to negative pion production ratios fromvp and\(\bar vp\) charged current interactions in BEBC are presented and compared with LUND fragmentation model predictions. Good agreement is obtained with a strangeness suppression factor λ=0.203±0.014(stat)±0.010(sys). No evidence is seen for an energy dependence of λ in our kinematic region.

New Results on $e^+ e^- \to \mu^+ \mu^-$ From the Jade Detector at {PETRA}

Inspire Record 204492 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.16141

The production of collinear muon pairs has been studied using the JADE detector at thee+e− storage ring at PETRA. Results for the total cross section and the angular distribution were obtained at centre of mass (cm) energies ranging from 12 to 46 GeV. The data correspond to an integrated luminosity offLdt>90 pb−1, of which 71.2 pb−1 were taken at\(\left\langle {\sqrt s } \right\rangle \)=34.4 GeV and 17 pb−1 at\(\left\langle {\sqrt s } \right\rangle \)=42.4 GeV. The results are compared to electroweak theories, in particular the “Standard Model”.

Transverse Momentum and Its Compensation in Current and Target Jets in Deep Inelastic Muon - Proton Scattering

The European Muon collaboration Arneodo, M. ; Arvidson, A. ; Aubert, J.J. ; et al.
Phys.Lett.B 149 (1984) 415-420, 1984.
Inspire Record 203149 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.30476

Results are presented on the transverse momentum distributions of charged hadrons in 280 GeV muon-proton deep inelastic interactions. The transverse momenta are defined relative to the accurately measured virtual photon direction and the experiment has almost complete angular acceptance for the final state hadrons. Significantly larger values of the average transverse momentum squared are found for the forward going hadrons than for the target remnants. This result, combined with a study of the rapidity region over which the transverse momentum is compensated, can be explained by a significant contribution from soft gluon radiation, but not by a large value of the primordial transverse momentum of the struck quark.
