The production of antideuterons has been observed in electron-positron annihilations at center-of-mass energies around 10 GeV. Antideuterons have been identified unambiguously by their energy loss in the drift chamber, their time-of-flight and the pattern of their energy deposition in the shower counters of the ARGUS detector. The production rate in the momentum range (0.6−1.8) GeV/ c is (1.6 −0.7 +1.0 ) × 10 −5 per hadronic event.

$\psi \psi$ Production and Limits on Beauty Meson Production From 400-{GeV}/$c$ Protons

The NA3 collaboration Badier, J. ; Boucrot, J. ; Bourotte, J. ; et al.
Phys.Lett.B 158 (1985) 85, 1985.
Inspire Record 213878 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.30379

From a study of multimuon events obtained in a high luminosity proton-platinum experiment at 400 GeV/ c , we find 5 ± 4 ψψ events, which correspond to a production cross section σ ( ψψ = 27 ± 10 pb. The observed production is compared to the ψψ events previously found in the same apparatus from incoming π − ; a comparison with QCD predictions is performed, giving a good agreement with expectations from gluon-gluon fusion. Finally, using like-sign dimuon, trimuon and quadrimuon events, we give model-dependent upper limits on beauty meson production: 2 nb/nucleon for central models, 20 nb/nucleon for diffractive production.

Search for Fractionally Charged Particles Produced in $e^+ e^-$ Annihilation

The ARGUS collaboration Albrecht, H. ; Binder, U. ; Harder, G. ; et al.
Phys.Lett.B 156 (1985) 134-138, 1985.
Inspire Record 214357 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.45210

A search has been made for particles with charge Q = 1 3 , Q = 2 3 and Q = 4 3 produced in e + e − annihilation using the ARGUS detector at the e + e − storage ring DORIS, operating at a centre of mass energy around 10 GeV. No candidate events were found in 84.5 pb −1 of collected data. Upper limits are established for the cross section for the production of fractionally charged particles with masses up to 4 GeV c 2 , improving on previously obtained limits.

A detailed study of the proton structure functions in deep inelastic muon - proton scattering

Nucl.Phys.B 259 (1985) 189, 1985.
Inspire Record 213461 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.13244

The x and Q 2 dependence of the single photon exchange cross section d 2 σ /d Q 2 d x and the proton structure functions F 2 ( x , Q 2 ) and R ( x , Q 2 ) have been measured in deep inelastic muon proton scattering in the region 0.02 < x < 0.8 and 3 < Q 2 < 190 GeV 2 . By comparing data at different incident muon energies R was found to have little kinematic dependence and an average value of −0.010 ± 0.037 (stat.) ± 0.102 (stat.). The observed deviations from scaling gave the value of Λ MS , the QCD mass scale parameter, to be 105 −45 +55 (stat.) −45 +85 (syst.) MeV. The fraction of the momentum of the nucleon carried by gluons was found to be ∼56% at Q 2 ∼22.5 GeV 2 . It is shown that to obtain a description of the data for F 2 ( x , Q 2 ) together with that measured in deep inelastic electron-proton scattering at lower Q 2 it is necessary to include additional higher twist contributions. The value of Λ MS remains unchanged with the inclusion of these contributions which were found to have an x -dependence of the form x 3 /(1 − x ).

Magnetic Form Factor of the Deuteron

Inspire Record 214266 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.20337

We have measured the deuteron magnetic form factor B(q2) for values of the momentum transfer squared between 7 and 28 fm−2. The data are compared with relativistic and nonrelativistic predictions including meson-exchange-current contributions. Significant disagreement is found for large momentum transfers.

Measurements of Tau Lepton Production and Decay

The PLUTO collaboration Berger, Christoph ; Genzel, H. ; Lackas, W. ; et al.
Z.Phys.C 28 (1985) 1, 1985.
Inspire Record 213241 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.16019

We have studied 419 τ pair events produced in the reactione+e−→τ+ τ− at a c.m. energy of 34.6 GeV. We measure the cross section and angular distribution, as well as the decay branching ratios. The production characteristics are consistent with the Standard Electroweak Model predictions of γ andZ0 interference. The branching ratios are generally consistent with the τ decaying according to standard weak interaction principles, but we observe somewhat more decays resulting in single charged hadrons plus neutrals than are predicted by present theory.

Intermediate Mass Dimuon Events at the {CERN} $p \bar{p}$ Collider at $\sqrt{s}=540$-{GeV}

The UA1 collaboration Arnison, G. ; Allkofer, O.C. ; Astbury, A. ; et al.
Phys.Lett.B 155 (1985) 442-456, 1985.
Inspire Record 213203 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.49630

We report the observation of 21 dimuon events at the CERN p p Collider with the UA1 detector. The events range in invariant dimuon mass from 2 to 22 GeV / c 2 . The properties of these events are given. The bulk of the events are consistent with heavy-flavour production (mainly b b ) with a few candidates for Drell-Yan production. There remain a few events which are difficult to interpret in terms of these processes, in particular two events with isolated, like-sign muons.

The reactions p¯p→π+π− and K+K− have been studied at 390, 490, 590, 690, and 780 MeV/c. An enhancement of about 150 μb has been observed in the cross sections of both reactions at the same beam momentum of 490 MeV/c. If this structure is interpreted as a meson resonance, it has a mass of 1940 ± 20 MeV and a width of less than 40 MeV.

CHARM PRODUCTION IN NEUTRON NUCLEON INTERACTIONS

Tzeng, L. ; Mcbride, P.L. ; Cooper, P.S. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.Lett. 55 (1985) 1172-1175, 1985.
Inspire Record 221439 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.20303

Hadronic production of charmed particles in association with muons from their semileptonic decay has been observed in a high-resolution streamer-chamber experiment performed at Fermilab. A miss-distance analysis of the pictures gives a signal of 17.3±4.7 events. Depending on the production model this corresponds to a range of neutron-nucleon cross sections from 8 to 50 μb, assuming an A23 dependence.
