Z.Phys.C 49 (1991) 375-384, 1991.
Inspire Record 299833 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.15085

The error includes the experimental uncertainties (±0.003), uncertainties of hadronisation corrections and of the degree of parton virtualities to which the data are corrected, as well as the uncertainty of choosing the renormalisation scale.

Measurement of the inclusive J / psi production cross-sections in anti-p p and p p collisions at s**(1/2) = 24.3-GeV

The UA6 collaboration Morel, C. ; Bernasconi, A. ; Breedon, R.E. ; et al.
Phys.Lett.B 252 (1990) 505-510, 1990.
Inspire Record 300180 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.29505

The inclusive cross section times branching ratio for J/ψ→e + e − has been measured in the forward region in the UA6 experiment for p p and pp collisions at √ s = 24.3 GeV. The ratio of the pp to p p cross sections is found to be 0.76 ± 0.14 ± 0.06. This demonstrates that gluon-gluon fusion dominates over quark-antiquark annihilation in the formation of the c c state.

Measurement of the Total Hadronic Cross-section in $e^+ e^-$ Annihilation at $\sqrt{s}=29$-{GeV}

The MARK-II collaboration Von Zanthier, Christoph ; de Boer, W. ; Grindhammer, Guenter ; et al.
Phys.Rev.D 43 (1991) 34-45, 1991.
Inspire Record 295286 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.22852

A precise measurement of the ratio R of the total cross section e+e−→hadrons to the pointlike cross section e+e−→μ+μ− at a center-of-mass energy of 29.0 GeV is presented. The data were taken with the upgraded Mark II detector at the SLAC storage ring PEP. The result is R=3.92±0.05±0.09. The luminosity has been determined with three independent luminosity monitors measuring Bhabha scattering at different angular intervals. Recent calculations of higher-order QED radiative corrections are used to estimate the systematic error due to missing higher-order radiative corrections in the Monte Carlo event generators.

A Search for Elastic Nondiagonal Lepton Pair Production in $e^+ e^-$ Annihilation at $\sqrt{s}=29$-{GeV}

Gomez Cadenas, J.J. ; Heusch, C.A. ; Abrams, G.S. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.Lett. 66 (1991) 1007-1010, 1991.
Inspire Record 295203 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.19918

We have searched for the annihilation of e+e− into the exclusive channels e±τ∓ and μ±τ∓ at √s =29 GeV, using 226 and 133 pb−1, respectively, of data taken with the Mark II detector at the SLAC storage ring PEP. The resulting candidate sample is compatible with the expected background from τ pair production. Our analysis yields 95%-C.L. cross-section limits of σeτ/σμμ<1.8×10−3 and σμτ/σμμ<6.1×10−3, where σμμ is the QED cross section for production of a lepton pair. This is the first high-Q2 test of lepton-flavor conservation involving τ leptons.

Measurements of Charged Particle Inclusive Distributions in Hadronic Decays of the $Z$ Boson

Abrams, G.S. ; Adolphsen, Chris ; Averill, D. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.Lett. 64 (1990) 1334, 1990.
Inspire Record 283799 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.19999

We have measured inclusive distributions for charged particles in hadronic decays of the Z boson. The variables chosen for study were charged-particle multiplicity, scaled momentum, and momenta transverse to the sphericity axes. The distributions have been corrected for detector effects and are compared with data from e+e− annihilation at lower energies and with the predictions of several QCD-based models. The data are in reasonable agreement with expectations.

Determination of $\alpha^- s$ From a Differential Jet Multiplicity Distribution at {SLC} and {PEP}

Komamiya, Sachio ; Le Diberder, F. ; Abrams, G.S. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.Lett. 64 (1990) 987, 1990.
Inspire Record 283630 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.19937

We measured the differential jet-multiplicity distribution in e+e− annihilation with the Mark II detector. This distribution is compared with the second-order QCD prediction and αs is determined to be 0.123±0.009±0.005 at √s≊MZ (at the SLAC Linear Collider) and 0.149±0.002±0.007 at √s=29 GeV (at the SLAC storage ring PEP). The running of αs between these two center-of-mass energies is consistent with the QCD prediction.

Measurements of Z Boson Resonance Parameters in e+ e- Annihilation

Phys.Rev.Lett. 63 (1989) 2173, 1989.
Inspire Record 281818 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.20033

We have measured the mass of the Z boson to be 91.14±0.12 GeV/c2, and its width to be 2.42−0.35+0.45 GeV. If we constrain the visible width to its standard-model value, we find the partial width to invisible decay modes to be 0.46±0.10 GeV, corresponding to 2.8±0.6 neutrino species, with a 95%-confidence-level upper limit of 3.9.

We have measured the mass of the Z boson to be 91.11±0.23 GeV/c2, and its width to be 1.61−0.43+0.60 GeV. If we constrain the visible width to its standard-model value, we find the partial width to invisible decay modes to be 0.62±0.23 GeV, corresponding to 3.8±1.4 neutrino species.

First Measurements of Hadronic Decays of the $Z$ Boson

Phys.Rev.Lett. 63 (1989) 1558, 1989.
Inspire Record 282670 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.20044

We have observed hadronic final states produced in the decays of Z bosons. In order to study the parton structure of these events, we compare the distributions in sphericity, thurst, aplanarity, and number of jets to the predictions of several QCD-based models and to data from lower energies. The data and models agree within the present statistical precision.
