Evidence for Direct $\gamma$ Production at Large $x$ in $\psi$ (3100) Decay

Ronan, M.T. ; Trippe, T.G. ; Barbaro-Galtieri, A. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.Lett. 44 (1980) 367, 1980.
Inspire Record 142946 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.20700

The inclusive γ and π0 momentum spectra from ψ(3100) decay have been measured in e+e− annihilation at SPEAR. When the γ spectrum is compared with that expected from π0 decay, an excess of high-momentum γ's is observed. This excess is compared with that predicted by quantum chromodynamics for the decay of the ψ into a γ and two gluons.

Measurement of the Parameters of the $\psi^{\prime\prime}$(3770) Resonance

Abrams, G.S. ; Alam, M.S. ; Blocker, C.A. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.D 21 (1980) 2716, 1980.
Inspire Record 142644 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.24185

We present a measurement of the cross section for hadron production by e+e− annihilation in the vicinity of the previously observed resonance near 3.77 GeV. The data are used to determine the parameters of the ψ(3770) resonance. The values found are: mass, 3764±5 MeV/c2, total width, 23.5±5 MeV, and partial width to electron pairs, 276±50 eV.

PRODUCTION OF PHOTONS ASSOCIATED WITH THE PSI BY 217-GEV/C PI- MESONS

Kirk, T.B.W. ; Raja, R. ; Goodman, M. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.Lett. 42 (1979) 619-622, 1979.
Inspire Record 145303 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.20780

Dimuon production is studied in 217-GeV/c π−-hydrogen and π−-beryllium collisions with a lead-glass array to detect photons associated with the ψ. The ψ−γ mass spectrum shows a 2.6-standard-deviation excess of events above background at ∼3.5 GeV. This excess, if attributed to the decay χ(∼3.5)→ψγ, implies that 0.70±0.28 of the ψ's are produced via radiative decay of one of the χ states.

In a large-acceptance spectrometer, muon pairs and associated hadrons were observed with μμ masses up to 10 GeV/ c 2 and ΔM M = 0.015 resolution. We report here on the production of 4000 J/ ψ and 80 ψ ′ mesons.

Production of $J/\psi$ in 16-{GeV} and 22-{GeV} $\pi^-$ Cu Collisions

LeBritton, J. ; McCal, D. ; Melissinos, A.C. ; et al.
Phys.Lett.B 81 (1979) 401-404, 1979.
Inspire Record 7053 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.50278

We have measured the inclusive production of J ψ in 16 and 22 GeV π − copper collisions in a wide aperture magnetic spectrometer. The cross section per Cu nucleus for x > 0 corrected for branching ratio is 64 ± 38 nb at 16 GeV and 196 ± 38 nb at 22 GeV. As threshold is approached, the mean values of the Feynman x distribution increase and the cross section for J ψ production drops steeply. This can be understood in terms of the quark-fusion model where the antiquark content of the pion makes an increasingly significant contribution as M 2 s increases.

Study of D Mesons Produced in the Decay of the psi-prime-prime (3772)

Peruzzi, I. ; Piccolo, M. ; Feldman, G.J. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.Lett. 39 (1977) 1301, 1977.
Inspire Record 120878 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.21003

From a study of D mesons produced in the decay ψ(3772)→DD¯, we have determined the masses of the D0 and D+ mesons to be 1863.3±0.9 MeV/c2 and 1868.3±0.9 MeV/c2, respectively. Under the assumption that the ψ(3772) has a definite isospin and decays only to DD¯, the D0 branching fractions to K−π+, K¯0π+π−, and K−π+π−π+ are (2.2±0.6)%, (4.0 ± 1.3)%, and (3.2±1.1)% and the D+ branching fractions to K¯0π+ and K−π+π+ are (1.5±0.6)% and (3.9±1.0)%.

Production of the $J/\psi$ and $\psi^{\prime}$ (3.7) by 225 GeV/c $\pi^{\pm}$ and Proton Beams on C and SN Targets.

Branson, J.G. ; Sanders, G.H. ; Smith, A.J.S. ; et al.

Inspire Record 123330 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.21022

We present results of a large-acceptance experiment in which muon pairs were observed in the mass range 0.6 to 6.0 GeV/c2. Emphasis is given to features of the production of Jψ and ψ′(3.7) particles. We find [Bσ]ψ′(3.7)[Bσ]Jψ to be 0.007±0.004 for p-C and 0.018±0.007 for π+-C interactions. Comparison with results from e+e− storage rings indicates that both the Jψ and the ψ′(3.7) are produced strongly rather than electromagnetically in our experiment.

Production of $\psi$ (3100) and $\psi^{\prime}$ (3700) in p-Be Collisions at 400 GeV

Snyder, H.D. ; Hom, D.C. ; Lederman, L.M. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.Lett. 36 (1976) 1415, 1976.
Inspire Record 108462 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.21117

We report preliminary results on the production of electron-positron pairs in the mass range 2.5 to 4 GeV in 400-GeV p-Be interactions. Production cross sections of the ψ(3100) near x=0 as a function of pt, x, and the decay angle are presented and implications of these new data for single direct leptons are discussed. A ψ′(3700) signal is observed at a level corresponding to σ(ψ′)σ(ψ)=(10±3)%.

Cross sections for e+e−→hadrons, e+e−, and μ+μ− near 3684 MeV are presented. The ψ(3684) resonance is established as having the assignment JPC=1−−. The mass is 3684 ± 5 MeV. The partial width for decay to electrons is Γe=2.1±0.3 keV and the total width is Γ=228±56 keV.
