The NA61/SHINE experiment at the CERN SPS is performing a uniqe study of the phase diagram of strongly interacting matter by varying collision energy and nuclear mass number of colliding nuclei. In central Pb+Pb collisions the NA49 experiment found structures in the energy dependence of several observables in the CERN SPS energy range that had been predicted for the transition to a deconfined phase. New measurements of NA61/SHINE find intriguing similarities in p+p interactions for which no deconfinement transition is expected at SPS energies. Possible implications will be discussed.

$D$ Meson Production From 400-{GeV}/$c p p$ Interactions. Evidence for Leading Diquarks?

The LEBC-EHS collaboration Aguilar-Benitez, M. ; Allison, W.W.M. ; Bailly, J.L. ; et al.
Phys.Lett.B 201 (1988) 176, 1988.
Inspire Record 252001 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.49611

Results of fitting the differential distributions in x F and p T 2 of D mesons produced in 400 GeV/ c p-p interactions to the form d 2 σ d x F d p T 2 ∝(1−x F ) n exp [−(p T 2 /〈p T 2 〉)] are discussed. The D + distribution is found to be relatively hard [ n =3.1±0.8〈 P t 2 〉=1.32±0.27 (GeV/ c ) 2 ] and the D̄ 0 distribution relatively soft [ n =8.1±1.9,〈 p T 2 〉=0.62±0.14 (GeV/ c ) 2 ] compared to the average for all D's [ n =4.9±0.5,〈 p T 2 〉=0.99±0.10 (GeV/ c ) 2 ]. It is suggested that these distributions could reflect contribution of leading di-quarks in pp collisions. Comparison is made with evidence for leading quarks in charm production in 360 GeV/ cπ − p interactions.

$D$ Meson Production From 400 GeV/$c p p$ Interactions

The LEBC-EHS collaboration Aguilar-Benitez, M. ; Allison, W.W.M. ; Bailly, J.L. ; et al.
Phys.Lett.B 189 (1987) 476, 1987.
Inspire Record 245101 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.12913

We have measured the inclusive production properties of D and D messons produced from pp interactions at s =27.4 GeV . The differential production cross section is well represented by the empirical form d 2 σ d x F d P 2 T = 1 2 [σ ( D / D )(n+1)b](1−|x F |) n exp (−bp 2 T ) with n=4.9 ± 0.5, b=(1.0±0.1)( GeV /c) −2 , and the inclusive D / D cross section σ ( D / D ) is (30.2±3.3) ωb. The QCD fusion model predicts D / D production which is in good agreement with our data except for the magnitude of the cross section which depends sensitively on the assumed mass of the charm quark.

A Search for Longlived Neutral Heavy Leptons in 400 GeV/c Proton Interactions

Bechis, D.J. ; Chang, C.Y. ; Dombeck, T.W. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.Lett. 40 (1978) 602-604, 1978.
Inspire Record 6478 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.37888

We report a null search for neutral heavy leptons produced unaccompanied by muons in 400-GeV/c proton-nucleon collisions in a magnetized beam dump and decaying in vacuum downstream. The upper limit on σB for L0's with Feynman x≳0.2 and θlab≲10 mrad with branching ratio B into two charged particles is σB≲2.8×10−35 cm2/nucleon at the 90% confidence level for masses below 1.0 GeV/c2 and lifetimes between 10−10 and 10−8 sec.
