A study of τ-lepton production in the CMS energy region from 14 to 46.8 GeV at PETRA is reported. The cross section, the decay branching ratio into μν ν , and the electroweak parameters are determined with a total integrated luminosity of 115 pb −1 .
Total cross section calculated from measured channel cross section assuming BR(tau-mu) = 17.6 pct. SIG(Q=MU) is the QED point cross section.

New data have been obtained on a resonance in the ϕπ 0 system, the C meson, which is formed in the π − p → ϕπ 0 n charge-exchange reaction. The experiment has been performed at the Serpukhov 70 GeV accelerator. The mass and the width of the resonance are measured to be M =1480±40 MeV , Γ =130±60 MeV . The production cross section is determined at a π − momentum of 32.5 GeV / c : σ ( π − p → Cn )· BR ( C → ϕπ 0 )=40±15 nb . The C(1480) meson has an isospin I =1 and spin-parity J PC =1 − − . It is strongly coupled to the ϕπ 0 channel and is considered as a possible exotic meson.

High-statistics data on the reaction π−p→ηπ+π−n at 8.06 GeV/c were obtained. An isobarmodel partial-wave analysis was performed for the ηππ system. The η(1275) meson was confirmed as a narrow IJPC=00−+ resonance. It decays through both δπ and εη. A narrow state with IJPC=00−+ was found in an ηππ decay channel at 1.42 GeV. It has a prominent peak in a δπ decay mode. No significant E(1420) signal with IJPC=01++ was found near the mass region of 1.42 GeV.

Inclusive ϕ meson production has been measured for 100 GeV/c and 200 GeV/c incident π−,\(\bar p\) andK−, and for 120 GeV/c and 200 GeV/c incident π+,p andK+, using a Be target. A total of 630,000 ϕ mesons has been recorded in the kinematic range 0<xF<0.4. Presented are the differential cross sectionsdσ/dxF anddσ/dpT2. The longitudinal momentum distributions show that the strange valence quarks of the incidentK mesons play an important role in ϕ meson production, even at smallxF. The decay angular distribution of the ϕ meson is evaluated in the Gottfried-Jackson frame and is expressed in the elements of the density matrix. There is a small but significant cos2θGJ dependence for smallpT, which decreases for increasingpT.

We present results on the production of hadrons in collisions of 400-GeV/c protons with beryllium, copper, and tungsten nuclei. The data cover the region from 5.6 to 8.0 GeV/c in the transverse momentum of the final-state hadron and from 73° to 102° in the proton-nucleon center-of-momentum frame production angle theta*. The restriction of the data to values of xT (xT=2pT/ √s ) greater than 0.4 enriches the sample with hard collisions of valence quarks. Asymmetries about theta*=90° reflect the presence of neutrons in the target nuclei. The variation of the atomic-weight dependence parameter α with production angle is discussed in the context of the phenomenology of nucleonic structure within nuclei. We also extrapolate our measurements to a ‘‘deuteron’’ target to minimize nuclear effects and compare the result to QCD calculations.

We have searched for exclusive hadronic J/ψ production by looking for narrow resonances in the e+e− mass spectrum of the reaction π−p→e+e−n. No events were observed in the region around 3.1 GeV/c2. The cross section for the reaction π−p→J/ψ n at 13 GeV/c is no more than 103 pb at the 90% confidence level.
Corrected cross section based on 7.4 pct branching ratio.
The reactione+e−→e+e− A2 (1320) has been observed by detecting the decayA2→π+,π-π0. The two-photon width of theA2 has been measured to be Г(A2→γγ)=(0.09±0.27 (stat)±0.16 (syst)) keV. The cross section σ(γγ→π+,π-π0 has been determined outside theA2 resonance region.

The cross section of the quasi-elastic reactions\(\bar v_\mup \to \mu ^ +\Lambda (\Sigma ^0 )\) in the energy range 5–100 GeV is determined from Fermilab 15′ bubble chamber antineutrino data. TheQ2 analysis of quasi-elastic Λ events yieldsMA=1.0±0.3 GeV/c2 for the axial mass value. With zero µΛK0 events observed, the 90% confidence level upper limit\(\sigma (\bar v_\mup \to \mu ^ +\Lambda {\rm K}^0 )< 2.0 \cdot 10^{ - 40} cm^2 \) is obtained. At the same time, we found that the cross section of reaction\(\bar v_\mup \to \mu ^ +\Lambda {\rm K}^0+ m\pi ^0 \) is equal to\(\left( {3.9\begin{array}{*{20}c}{ + 1.6}\\{ - 1.3}\\ \end{array} } \right) \cdot 10^{ - 40} cm^2 \).

Total and differential cross sections for exclusive production of proton-antiproton pairs in photon-photon collisions have been measured using the JADE detector at PETRA. The total cross section in the CM angular |cos θ ∗ | < 0.6 reaches a maximum value of 3.8 nb for a γγ invariant mass of W γγ = 2.25 GeV, and decreases rapidly for higher values of W γγ . In the range 2.0 GeV < W γγ < 2.6 GeV the angular distribution is not isotopic. The nucleons are preferentially emitted at large angles to the collision axis.
