In a search for highly ionizing particles at PEP, Lexan and CR-39 plastic track detectors were exposed to an integrated luminosity of ∼1037 cm−2 at an energy of 29 GeV in the center of mass. The search was sensitive to particles with magnetic charge 20e≲g≲200e or electric charge 3≲Z≲180. An upper limit on the production cross section of σ<0.9×10−36 cm2 (95% C.L.) is obtained.
THIS ESTIMATION MAINLY IS BASED ON THE ACCEPTANCE ESTIMATION.
The analyzing power A and spin-transfer parameters KNN, KSS, KSL, and KLL have been measured in the np charge-exchange (np→pn) region at 790 MeV. These data provide new and unique information on the spin dependence of the np interaction in the charge-exchange region. Models which explain the charge-exchange peak in the np elastic differential cross section as being due to interference between one-pion exchange and a slowly varying background are in basic agreement with the data.

In a sample of approximately 17500 charged-current neutrino-deuterium interactions from an exposure of the Fermilab 15-ft bubble chamber to a high-energy wide-band neutrino beam, the charmed baryon Λc+ is observed in a new decay mode, Λc+→Σ0π+. The product of branching ratio and production rate is estimated to be (3.2±2.1)×10−3 for this Σ0π+ channel.

A measurement is reported of charged multiplicity distributions of high-mass diffractive π±, K±, and p± states produced in 100 and 200 GeV/c hadron-proton collisions, h+p→X+p. The distributions are described well by a Gaussian function that depends only on the available mass M=Mx−Mh, has a maximum at n0≅2M12, and a peak-to-width ratio n0D≅2.

The differential cross section for γd→pn has been measured in the energy range between 180 and 600 MeV at c.m. angles 15°, 30°, 42°, and 72°, by using tagged photons. The results, in particular at smaller angles, are in disagreement with theoretical calculations which take into account the effect of dibaryon resonances.

From 12000 charged-current νμ D events obtained in an exposure of the Fermilab 15-ft bubble chamber to a high-energy wide-band neutrino beam, the absolute neutrino flux is determined using the reaction νμn→μ−p. For the total charged-current cross section, σt=kEν, k=(0.68±0.04±0.10)×10−38 cm2/GeV is obtained for Eν between 10 and 200 GeV. No clear energy dependence of the slope parameter k is observed.

The absolute cross sections for the production of 11 C by 1.59 GeV and 4.19 GeV α-particles incident on natural carbon have been measured to be 46.4 ± 1.3 mb and 42.5 ± 1.1 mb respectively. These results, together with data reported at other energies, indicate that the C(α, X) 11 C cross section becomes approximately constant at a value of about 43 mb for energies above 3 GeV (750 MeV/n). A similar energy dependence is exhibited by the C(p, X) 11 C reaction whose cross section has been measured previously over an extensive energy range. The C(α, X) 11 C cross sections are found to be in good agreement with predictions of a semi-empirical model developed to describe nuclear fragmentation.

The polarization for the\(\bar pp\) elastic scattering was measured as a function of the centre-of-mass angle of scattering between 17° and 90° at the average incident momentum of 0.7 GeV/c by using doublescattering events in a bubble chamber. The average value of the polarization was found to be 0.23 ± 0.05. The angular dependence of the polarization obtained in this experiment was interpreted by the strong absorptive potential model for\(\bar {\mathcal{N}}{\mathcal{N}}\) interactions recently proposed.

The γ-to-charge multiplicity ratio 〈Mγ〉〈Mch〉 in N¯N annihilations is restricted by I-spin conservation. In deuterium, the ratio is constrained by I-spin conservation to be equal to 1, while an experiment reported a value of 1.24±0.03; this measurement was based on missing and γ energies. The experiment reported in this paper measures the rate of conversion of γ's as a function of converter thickness and obtains 〈Mγ〉〈Mch〉=1.26±0.03 for p¯p annihilations, which is in agreement with the large γ excess observed in deuterium. Statistical models which ignore I-spin conservation predict such a γ excess, while those taking into account I-spin conservation predict values near 1.
