Observation of orbitally excited B mesons

The DELPHI collaboration Abreu, P. ; Adam, W. ; Adye, T. ; et al.

Phys.Lett.B 345 (1995) 598-608, 1995.

Inspire Record 382208 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.48321

Experimental evidence for the existence of orbitally excited B meson states is presented in an analysis of the Bπ and B ∗ π distribution of Q = m(B ∗∗ ) − m(B (∗) ) − m(π) using Z 0 decay data taken with the DELPHI detector at LEP. The mean Q-value of the decays B ∗∗ → B (∗) π is measured to be 284 ± 5 (stat.) ± 15 (syst.) MeV/c 2 , and the Gaussian width of the signal is 79 ± 5 (stat.) ± 8 (syst.) MeV/c 2 . This signal can be described as a single resonance of mass m = 5732 ± 5 (stat.) ± 20 (syst.) MeV/c 2 and full width Γ = 145 ± 28 MeV/c 2 . The observed shape is also consistent with the production of several broad and narrow states as predicted by the quark model and partly observed in the D-meson sector. The production rate of B ∗∗ per b-jet is found to be 0.27 ± 0.02 (stat.) ± 0.06 (syst.).

FRAGMENTATION INTO STRANGE PARTICLES IN HIGH-ENERGY NEUTRINO P, neutrino N, ANTI-NEUTRINO P AND ANTI-NEUTRINO N INTERACTIONS

The AMSTERDAM-BERGEN-BOLOGNA-PADUA-PISA-SACLAY-TURIN collaboration Allasia, D. ; Angelini, C. ; Baldini, A. ; et al.

Phys.Lett.B 154 (1985) 231-235, 1985.

Inspire Record 218756 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.30415

The fragmentation of the hadronic system into Λ, Σ(1385), K ) and K ∗ (892) in deep-inelastic charged-current interactions of high energy neutrinos and antineutrinos with proton and neutron is analyzed. The results obtained for the production of these particles from the various initial states are compared with each other and with the predictions of the Lund fragmentation model. This comparison shows that a spectator diquark does not fragment as a whole in a fraction of the interactions. The role of the sea quarks in the baryon formation process is underlined. Strange vector and pseudoscalar mesons are likely to be produced at similar rates.

Reaction $\pi^- p \to \eta n$ in the 15-{GeV}/$c$ to 40-{GeV}/$c$ Momentum Range

The Serpukhov-CERN collaboration Apel, W.D. ; Augenstein, K.H. ; Bertolucci, E. ; et al.

Nucl.Phys.B 152 (1979) 1, 1979.

Inspire Record 133409 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.41487

A high-statistics measurement of the reaction π − p→ η n; η →2 γ has been performed at the 70 GeV Serpukhov accelerator for 15, 20, 25, 30 and 40 GeV/ c incident pion momentum using the NICE set-up with its associated 648-channel hodoscope spectrometer for γ-ray detection. It is found that the spin-flip and non-spin-flip amplitudes can be parametrized, for small | t |, as exponentials with the same slopes to within a few percent. For | t | ≳ 1 (GeV/ c ) 2 there is a break in the differential cross section. In addition, the A 2 effective trajectory deviates markedly for | t | ≳ 1 GeV/ c ) 2 from the linear behaviour valid for smaller | t |.
