Search for parity noncoserving optical rotation in atomic bismuth

Baird, P.E.G ; Brimicombe, S.M. ; Hunt, R.G. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.Lett. 39 (1977) 798-801, 1977.
Inspire Record 128257 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.20929

We report the results of a laser experiment to search for the parity-nonconserving optical rotation in atomic bismuth. We work at wavelengths close to the 648-nm J=32 — J=52 M1 transition from the ground state. We find R=Im(E1M1)=(+2.7±4.7)×10−8, in disagreement with the theoretical value R=−30×10−8 predicted for this transition on the basis of the Weinberg-Salam model of the weak interactions combined with relativistic central-field atomic theory.

Upper limit on parity nonconserving optical rotation in atomic bismuth

Lewis, L.L. ; Hollister, J.H. ; Soreide, D.C. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.Lett. 39 (1977) 795-798, 1977.
Inspire Record 128258 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.20948

We have searched for optical rotation near the 8757-Å magnetic-dipole absorption line in atomic bismuth vapor. The experiment is sensitive to parity nonconservation in the weak neutral-current interaction between electrons and nucleons in atoms. We find R≡Im(E1M1)=(−0.7±3.2)×10−8, which is considerably smaller than the value R=−2.5×10−7 obtained by central-field calculations for this bismuth line using the Weinberg-Salam theory of neutral currents.

Experimental Study of Nuclear Shadowing in Photoproduction

Michalowski, S. ; Andrews, D. ; Eickmeyer, J. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.Lett. 39 (1977) 737-740, 1977.
Inspire Record 124559 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.20970

The total cross section for hadron production by high-energy photons has been measured from a number of nuclei ranging from hydrogen to uranium. Some shadowing is observed at a level considerably less than predicted by conventional vector-meson dominance but consistent with a modified theory. The energy dependence predicted by vectormeson dominance is observed. The shadowing in heavy nuclei shows a smooth transition from electroproduction to photoproduction.

Study of the Reaction d (p, pi+) t at t(p) = 410-MeV, 605-MeV and 809-MeV

Aslanides, E. ; Bertini, R. ; Bing, O. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.Lett. 39 (1977) 1654-1656, 1977.
Inspire Record 126515 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.20981

Pion production on a CD2 target has been measured using the high-resolution magnetic spectrometer SPES I. Differential cross sections for the reaction D(p, π+)T have been determed at Tp=410, 605, and 809 MeV. The present data, together with previous results establish a complete angular distribution of the reaction D(p, π+)T at ∼ 600 MeV and the energy dependence of the differential cross section for this reaction at several constant momentum transfers.

Study of Pion Absorption Mechanisms in He-4 and Other Nuclei

Jackson, H.E. ; Tabor, S.L. ; Rehm, K.E. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.Lett. 39 (1977) 1601-1604, 1977.
Inspire Record 126555 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.20984

The spectrum and yield of protons produced by 60-, 100-, and 200-MeV π+ and π− beams on targets of He4, C12, Ni62, and Ta181 have been measured at 45° and 90°. A distinct high-energy component is seen in the protons from He4, which is consistent with a two-body absorption mechanism. Its cross section at 220 MeV is somewhat larger than calculated from the π+ + D process. Possible evidence is also seen for multinucleon absorption modes. The data on heavier nuclei are consistent with earlier experiments.

Pseudorapidity distributions for proton-nucleus interactions are presented. The data cover twelve nuclei ranging from carbon to uranium and three incident proton momenta, 50, 100, and 200 GeV/c.

Hadronic Production of Massive Muon Pairs: Dependence on Incident Particle Type and on Target Nucleus.

Branson, J.G. ; Sanders, G.H. ; Smith, A.J.S. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.Lett. 38 (1977) 1334-1337, 1977.
Inspire Record 123331 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.21006

Data from a study of muon pairs produced in hadron-nucleus collisions are compared with the Drell-Yan model. Comparison of dimuon production by π+ and π− mesons on an isoscalar target shows evidence for a charge asymmetry characteristic of an isospin-nonconserving electromagnetic process. The average transverse momentum of the pairs increases smoothly with pair mass. Data taken on carbon and tin targets are used to extract the dependence on target atomic weight.

Properties of Inclusive $\pi^{\pm}$ Production in 100 GeV/c Antiproton-Proton Interactions

Whitmore, J. ; Oh, B.Y. ; Pratap, M. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.Lett. 38 (1977) 996, 1977.
Inspire Record 118838 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.20985

Inclusive spectra are presented for π± production in 100-GeV/cp¯p interactions. The rapidity distribution for the difference (p¯p−pp) approximately scales as the difference in total cross sections in the fragmentation region between 12 and 100 GeV/c and exhibits an approximate s−12dependence in the central region.
