First observation of pi0 production in the reaction d + d ---> alpha + pi0, prohibited by charge symmetry conservation and measurement of the reaction d + d ---> alpha + gamma

The reaction d+d→ α + π 0 which is in clear violation of charge symmetry conservation, has been observed for the first time at a laboratory energy of 1.10 GeV in an experiment carried out at the Saturne synchroton at Saclay. The number of π 0 's detected corresponds to a differential cross section d σ d Ω ∗ (π 0 ) = 0.97 ± 0.20 ± 0.15 pb/sr at a centre-of-mass angle of θ c . m . = 107°, where the first error bar refers to the statistical uncertainty and the second to the systematic. The reaction d+d→ α + γ was measured simultaneously with the π 0 production, leading to a differential cross section of d σ d Ω ∗ (γ) = 0.82±0.18±0.10 pb/sr at the slightly larger angle of θ c . m . = 110°. The available predictions of theoretical models of charge symmetry breaking, based upon η / π mixing, fall an order of magnitude below our measurement. However, these predictions for the η / π mixing level might be boosted by the η threshold (1.121 GeV) proximity, where this experiment is performed.

Improved measurements of electroweak parameters from Z decays into fermion pairs

Inspire Record 317141 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.14857

The properties of theZ resonance are measured on the basis of 190 000Z decays into fermion pairs collected with the ALEPH detector at LEP. Assuming lepton universality,Mz=(91.182±0.009exp±0.020L∶P) GeV,ГZ=(2484±17) MeV, σhad0=(41.44±0.36) nb, andГjad/Гℓℓ=21.00±0.20. The corresponding number of light neutrino species is 2.97±0.07. The forward-back-ward asymmetry in leptonic decays is used to determine the ratio of vector to axial-vector coupling constants of leptons:gv2(MZ2)/gA2(MZ2)=0.0072±0.0027. Combining these results with ALEPH results on quark charge and\(b\bar b\) asymmetries, and τ polarization, sin2θW(MZ2). In the contex of the Minimal Standard Model, limits are placed on the top-quark mass.

Absolute measurement of the p+p analyzing power at 183 MeV

von Przewoski, B. ; Meyer, H.O. ; Pancella, P.V. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.C 44 (1991) 44-49, 1991.
Inspire Record 327386 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.26154

The analyzing power Ay for p+p elastic scattering at θlab=8.64°±0.07° (θcms=18.1°) and at a bombarding energy of 183.1±0.4 MeV has been determined to be Ay=0.2122±0.0017. The error includes statistics, systematic uncertainties, and the uncertainty in bombarding energy and angle. This measurement represents a calibration standard for polarized beams in this energy range. The absolute scale for the measurement has been obtained by comparison with p+C elastic scattering at the same energy at an angle where Ay is very nearly unity.

Xi-, anti-xi-, Lambda and anti-Lambda production in sulphur - tungsten interactions at 200-GeV/c per nucleon

Multi-strange baryon and antibaryon production is expected to be a useful probe in the search for quark-gluon plasma formation. We present the transverse mass distributions of negative particles, Λ' s , Λ ' s and Ξ − ' s produced in sulphur-tungsten interactions at 200 GeV/ c per nucleon and give the corrected rations Λ /Λ, Ξ − /Λ and Ξ − / Λ . Our ratio Ξ − / Λ appears to be larger than that from pp interactions.

The reaction e+ e- ---> gamma gamma (gamma) at Z0 energies

Phys.Lett.B 268 (1991) 296-304, 1991.
Inspire Record 317825 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.29352

The total and differential cross-sections for the reaction e + e − → γγ ( γ ) are measured at centre of mass energies around 91 GeV using an integrated luminosity of 4.7 pb −1 . The aggreement with QED prediction is good. Consequently there is no evidence for non-standard channels which would have the same experimental signature. The lower limits on the QED cuttoff parameters are Λ + > 113 GeV and Λ − > 95 GeV. An upper limit on the effective coupling between a possible excited electron and the gamma is derived. At 95% confidence level the branching ratios for Z 0 decay into π 0 γ, ηψ and γγγ are below 1.5 × 10 −4 , 2.8 × 10 −4 and 1.4 × 10 −4 respectively.

We present new measurements of π0 production at high transverse momenta (pT) for π− and p interactions on Be and Cu targets at 500 GeV/c. The observed dependence of the yields as a function of pT and rapidity (y) is compared with expectations from leading-log QCD over a kinematic range in which the inclusive cross sections fall by more than 4 order of magnitude.

Z.Phys.C 54 (1992) 13-20, 1992.
Inspire Record 319102 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.14708

We have measured theR value in non-resonante+e− annihilation using the ARGUS detector at the storage ring DORIS II. At a centre-of-mass energy\(\sqrt s= 9.36\) GeV the ratio of the hadronic cross-section to the μ-pair cross section in lowest order QED has been determined to beR=3.46±0.03±0.13. In addition, we have measured the charged-particle multiplicities in non-resonant hadron production at\(\sqrt s= 10.47\) GeV just below theB\(\bar B\) threshold and in ϒ (4S) resonance decays. For the average charged-particle multiplicities in continuum events and ϒ(4S)→B\(\bar B\) decays we obtain cont=8.35±0.02±0.20 and ϒ(4s)=10.81±0.05±0.23.

Measurement of the strong coupling constant alpha-s for bottom quarks at the Z0 resonance

Phys.Lett.B 271 (1991) 461-467, 1991.
Inspire Record 318981 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.38288

We have measured the ratio of the strong coupling constants α s for bottom quarks and light quarks at the Z 0 resonance, in order to test the flavour independence of the strong interaction. The coupling strength α s has been determined from the fraction of events with three jets, measured for a sample of all hardronic events, and for inclusive muon and electron events. The b purity is evaluated to be 22% for the first data set and 87% for the inclusive lepton sample. We find α s ( b ) α s ( udsc ) =1.00± 0.05 ( stat. )±0.06 ( syst. ) .
