Observation of New Structure in the e+ e- Annihilation Cross-Section Above B anti-B Threshold

The CLEO collaboration Besson, D. ; Green, J. ; Namjoshi, R. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.Lett. 54 (1985) 381, 1985.
Inspire Record 205667 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.20359

Measurements of the e+e− cross section above BB¯ threshold are reported. Structures are observed which could be the ϒ(5S) and ϒ(6S) resonances. The masses and widths are given and compared with various potential-model predictions. Average charged multiplicities and inclusive lepton yields are also presented.

Inclusive Hadron Production in Upsilon Decays and in Nonresonant electron-Positron Annihilation at 10.49-GeV

The CLEO collaboration Behrends, S. ; Chadwick, K. ; Gentile, T. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.D 31 (1985) 2161, 1985.
Inspire Record 205668 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.23589

We report measurements of single-particle inclusive spectra and two-particle correlations in decays of the Υ(1S) resonance and in nonresonant annihilations of electrons and positrons at center-of-mass energy 10.49 GeV, just below BB¯ threshold. These data were obtained using the CLEO detector at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring (CESR) and provide information on the production of π, K, ρ, K*, φ, p, Λ, and Ξ in quark and gluon jets. The average multiplicity of hadrons per event for upsilon decays (compared with continuum annihilations) is 11.4 (10.5) pions, 2.4 (2.2) kaons, 0.6 (0.5) ρ0, 1.2 (0.8) K*, 0.6 (0.4) protons and antiprotons, 0.15 (0.08) φ, 0.19 (0.07) Λ and Λ¯, and 0.016 (0.005) Ξ− and Ξ¯ +. We have also seen evidence for η and f0 production. The most significant differences between upsilon and continuum final states are (1) the inclusive energy spectra fall off more rapidly with increasing particle energy in upsilon decays, (2) the production of heavier particles, especially baryons, is not as strongly suppressed in upsilon decays, and (3) baryon and antibaryon are more likely to be correlated at long range in upsilon decay than in continuum events.

Hyperon Production in $e^+ e^-$ Interactions in the $\Upsilon$ Region

The CLEO collaboration Alam, M.S. ; Csorna, S.E. ; Garren, L. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.Lett. 53 (1984) 24, 1984.
Inspire Record 200712 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.20410

We report measurements from the CLEO detector of the rate of Ξ and Λ production in e+e− interactions in the upsilon region. Hyperon production from the decay of the ϒ(1s) is compared with continuum e+e− data. The ratio of the production rates of Λ (and Λ―) to K0 (and K―0) on the ϒ(1s) is 0.21 ± 0.03, much larger than in the continuum, 0.07 ± 0.01. The ratios of the production rates of the Ξ and Λ are comparable, 0.10±0.02 [ϒ(1S)] and 0.07 ± 0.02 (continuum). We discuss some implications of the data for gluon and quark fragmentation models.

Limit on the B ---> u Coupling from Semileptonic B Decay

The CLEO collaboration Chen, A. ; Goldberg, M. ; Horwitz, N. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.Lett. 52 (1984) 1084, 1984.
Inspire Record 199380 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.20474

We have used the momentum spectrum of leptons produced in semileptonic B-meson decays to set a 90%-confidence-level upper limit on Γ(b→ulν)Γ(b→clν) of 4%. We also measure the semileptonic branching fractions of the B meson to be (12.0±0.7±0.5)% for electrons and (10.8±0.6±1.0)% for muons.

The Total Cross-section for Electron - Positron Annihilation Into Hadron Final States in the $\Upsilon$ Energy Region

The CLEO collaboration Giles, R. ; Hassard, J. ; Hempstead, M. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.D 29 (1984) 1285, 1984.
Inspire Record 193577 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.23768

We report measurements made with the CLEO detector at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring (CESR) of the total cross section for e+e−→hadrons at the ϒ(1S), ϒ(2S), and ϒ(3S), and in the nearby nonresonant continuum. We find R=3.77±0.06 (statistical) ± 0.24 (systematic) for the ratio of the nonresonant hadronic cross section to the cross section for muon-pair production at a center-of-mass total energy W=10.4 GeV. For the leptonic decay widths Γee of the ϒ(1S), ϒ(2S), and ϒ(3S) we obtain 1.30±0.05±0.08, 0.52±0.03±0.04, and 0.42±0.04±0.03 keV, respectively.

Production of Charmed Mesons in $e^+ e^-$ Annihilation at 10.5-{GeV}

The CLEO collaboration Avery, P. ; Bebek, C. ; Berkelman, Karl ; et al.
Phys.Rev.Lett. 51 (1983) 1139, 1983.
Inspire Record 191835 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.20524

A measurement is presented of the inclusive production of charged D* and neutral D mesons from nonresonant e+e− annihilation in the energy region near the ϒ(4S) resonance. The momentum distribution shows a large contribution at high momenta as expected for heavy quark production. Comparison of the spectrum with several phenomenological models is made. The relative yields of the D* and D mesons indicate that the charm cross section is dominated by the D* contribution.

The D0 Spectrum From $B$ Meson Decay

The CLEO collaboration Green, J. ; Hicks, R.G. ; Sannes, F. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.Lett. 51 (1983) 347, 1983.
Inspire Record 190327 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.20493

The inclusive branching fraction for B-meson decay into D0 mesons and the momentum spectrum of the D0's have been measured. 0.8±0.2±0.2 D0 per B decay was found. The shape of the spectrum suggests an interesting picture of B-meson decay.
