The Mark-J collaboration Adeva, B. ; Becker, U. ; Becker-Szendy, R. ; et al.

Phys.Rev.Lett. 55 (1985) 665, 1985.

Inspire Record 214607 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.3237

We use the reaction e+e−→μ+μ−, in the Mark J detector at the DESY high-energy e+e− collider PETRA, to test the standard electroweak theory and find good agreement. We also set limits on the parameters of several extended gauge theories.

Electroweak Effects in $e^+ e^- \to \tau^+ \tau^-$ at 29-{GeV}

Fernandez, E. ; Ford, William T. ; Qi, N. ; et al.

Phys.Rev.Lett. 54 (1985) 1620, 1985.

Inspire Record 207555 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.3267

A high-statistics measurement is presented of the cross section for the process e+e−→τ+τ− at s=29 GeV from the MAC detector at PEP. A fit to the angular distribution of our sample of 10 153 events with |cosθ|<0.9 gives an asymmetry Aττ=−0.055±0.012±0.005 from which we find the product of electron and tau axial-vector weak neutral couplings gAegAτ=0.22±0.05.

Direct Photon Production in $e^+ e^-$ Annihilation

Fernandez, E. ; Ford, William T. ; Qi, N. ; et al.

Phys.Rev.Lett. 54 (1985) 95, 1985.

Inspire Record 204606 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.20304

Direct photon production in hadronic events from e+e− annihilation has been studied at s=29 GeV with use of the MAC detector at the PEP storage ring. A charge asymmetry A=(−12.3±3.5)% is observed in the final-state jets. The cross section and the charge asymmetry are in good agreement with the predictions of the fractionally charged quark-parton model. Both the charge asymmetry and total yield have been used to determine values of quark charges. Limits have been established for anomalous sources of direct photons.

Production of the F(0) Meson in Photon-photon Collisions

The production of thef0 in two photon collisions, with the subsequent decayf0→π+π− has been observed in the CELLO detector at PETRA. Thef0 peak was found to lie on a dipion continuum and to be shifted downwards in mass by ≃50 MeV/c2. The ππ mass spectrum from 0.8 to 1.5 GeV/c2 was well fitted by the model of Mennessier using only a unitarised Born amplitude and helicity 2f0 amplitude. The previously observed mass shift and distortion of thef0 peak are explained by strong interference between the Born andf0 amplitudes. The only free parameter in the fit of the data to the model is the radiative widthΓγγ(f0). It was found that:Γγγ(f0)=2.5±0.1±0.5 keV where the first (second) quoted errors are statistical (systematic).

Search for Singly Produced Supersymmetric Electrons in $e^+ e^-$ Interactions

Phys.Rev.Lett. 52 (1984) 22, 1984.

Inspire Record 192872 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.20447

A search for supersymmetric electron production via the reaction e+e−→e±γ̃ẽ∓ followed by the decay ẽ∓→e∓γ̃ has been performed with the MAC detector at the electron-positron storage ring PEP. No candidates were found in a sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 36.4 pb−1. For a massless γ̃ this corresponds to a lower limit on the ẽ mass of 22.4 GeV/c2 at the 95% confidence level.

A measurement of the cross section for production of collinear muon pairs based upon a sample of about 3000 events observed in the MAC detector at the storage ring PEP is presented. From the angular asymmetry Aμμ=0.076±0.018 the axial-vector weak neutral coupling is found to be given by gAegAμ=0.31±0.08.

The Influence of Fragmentation Models on the Determination of the Strong Coupling Constant in $e^+ e^-$ Annihilation Into Hadrons

The CELLO collaboration Behrend, H.J. ; Chen, C. ; Fenner, H. ; et al.

Nucl.Phys.B 218 (1983) 269-288, 1983.

Inspire Record 179447 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.8172

Hadronic events obtained with the CELLO detector at PETRA were compared with first-order QCD predictions using two different models for the fragmentation of quarks and gluons, the Hoyer model and the Lund model. Both models are in reasonable agreement with the data, although they do not completely reproduce the details of many distributions. Several methods have been applied to determine the strong coupling constant α S . Although within one model the value of α S varies by 20% among the different methods, the values determined using the Lund model are 30% or more larger (depending on the method used) than the values determined with the Hoyer model. Our results using the Hoyer model are in agreement with previous results based on this approach.
