First Measurements of Hadronic Decays of the $Z$ Boson

Inspire Record 282670 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.20044

We have observed hadronic final states produced in the decays of Z bosons. In order to study the parton structure of these events, we compare the distributions in sphericity, thurst, aplanarity, and number of jets to the predictions of several QCD-based models and to data from lower energies. The data and models agree within the present statistical precision.

A MEASUREMENT OF e+ e- ---> b anti-b FORWARD - BACKWARD CHARGE ASYMMETRY BETWEEN s**(1/2) = 52-GeV AND 57-GeV

The AMY collaboration Sagawa, H. ; Lim, J. ; Abe, K. ; et al.

Inspire Record 279824 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.19996

Using 123 multihadronic inclusive muon-production e+e− annihilation events at an average c.m. energy of 55.2 GeV, we extracted the forward-backward charge asymmetry of the e+e−→bb¯ process and the R ratio for bb¯ production. We used an analysis method in which the behavior of the c quark and lighter quarks is assumed, with only that of the b quark left indeterminate. The results, Ab=-0.72±0.28(stat)±0.13(syst) and Rb=0.57±0.16±0.10, are consistent with the standard model.

QUARK HADRONIZATION PROBED BY K0 MESONS

Inspire Record 280958 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.23000

Total and differential K0 corss sections are presented from e+e− collisions at s=29 GeV in the High Resolution Spectrometer detector. K0 and charged-particle distributions are compared in a study of the hadronization of quarks of known flavor. Ecents of the reaction e+e−→cc¯ are tagged by identifying D*'s while uu¯, dd¯, or ss¯ events are tagged through the identification of a charged particle with fractional momentum near 1. Parton-shower models with cluster and string fragmentation are compared with these data. Also, certain particle scaling tests are performed using the quark-flavor tags. In addition, K0 production in two- and three-jet events is compared to these models.

Inspire Record 279699 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.45199

Using the ARGUS detector at the DORIS II e + e - storage ring at DESY, we have observed a new charmed meson of mass (2469±4±6) MeV/ c 2 , decaying to D 0 π + . This state is a strong candidate for the charged isospin partner of the D ∗ (2459) 0 . The isospin mass splitting is measured to be (14±5±8) MeV / c 2 .

A Study of the General Characteristics of Proton - anti-Proton Collisions at s**(1/2) = 0.2-TeV to 0.9-TeV

The general characteristics of inelastic proton-antiproton collisions at the CERN SPS Collider are studied with the UA1 detector using magnetic and calorimetric analysis. Results are presented on charged particle multiplicities and transverse and longitudinal momenta, and on total transverse energy distributions at centre of mass energies ranging from 0.2 to 0.9 TeV.

Threshold Measurement of the Reaction $\bar{p} p \to \bar{\ell}$ambda $\lambda$ at {LEAR}

Barnes, P.D. ; Besold, R. ; Birien, P. ; et al.
Phys.Lett.B 229 (1989) 432-438, 1989.
Inspire Record 280159 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.29780

The excitation function of the reaction p p→ Λ Λ in the threshold region has been measured at LEAR. Sixteen measurements of the total cross section, in the energy range between 0.85 MeV below threshold and 4.05 MeV above, are presented. The shapes of the measured differential cross sections indicate a remarkably strong p-wave contribution even down to the reaction threshold. We also report here the measurement of significant polarizations in the threshold region; these are compared with previous higher-energy data.

The Spin Correlation Parameter and Analyzing Power in $n p$ Elastic Scattering at Intermediate-energies

Inspire Record 281880 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.26220

In order to improve existing I=0 phase shift solutions, the spin correlation parameter ANN and the analyzing powers A0N and AN0 have been measured in n-p elastic scattering over an angular range of 50°–150° (c.m.) at three neutron energies (220, 325, and 425 MeV) to an absolute accuracy of ±0.03. The data have a profound effect on various phase parameters, particularly the P11, D23, and ε1 phase parameters which in some cases change by almost a degree. With the exception of the highest energy, the data support the predictions of the latest version of the Bonn potential. Also, the analyzing power data (A0N and AN0) measured at 477 MeV in a different experiment over a limited angular range [60°–80° (c.m.)] are reported here.

Multiplicities of neutrons and light charged particles associated with central collisions have been measured in the energy range 27–77 MeV/u for the systems 40 Ar+ 197 Au, 232 Th. The experiments demonstrate the occurrence of a saturation of the thermal energy deposited in the system around 650 MeV, corresponding to a constant internal temperature close to 5 MeV.

Strange and Nonstrange Baryon Production in $\pi^+ p$ and $K^+ p$ Interactions at 250-{GeV}/$c$

The EHS/NA22 collaboration Ajinenko, I.V. ; Atayan, M.R. ; Belokopytov, Yu. A. ; et al.
Z.Phys.C 44 (1989) 573, 1989.
Inspire Record 283744 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.15338

We present data on the production of the baryons Λ,\(\bar \Lambda \),p and of the baryon resonances Σ*+ (1385) and Δ++ (1232) inK+p and π+p interactions at 250 GeV/c. Results are given on total and semi-inclusive cross sections, Feynman-x spectra, transverse momentum distributions and Λ polarization. The data are compared with measurements at lower energies, with deep inclastic lepton nucleon data and with predictions of quark-parton models. The models underestimate Λ production in the central c.m. region, a feature also seen in recent heavy-ion data. This failure can be cured in JETSET 6.3 by adjustment of the di-quark break-up probability.
