Strange-particle production in {8-BeV/c} proton-proton interactions

Firebaugh, M. ; Ascoli, G. ; Goldwasser, E.L. ; et al.
Phys.Rev. 172 (1968) 1354-1369, 1968.
Inspire Record 53978 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.26501

A systematic survey of strange-particle final states produced by 8−BeVc protons was made in the BNL 80-in. hydrogen bubble chamber. Cross sections were measured for some 33 reactions. The ratio of the cross section for the KK¯ channels to the total strange-particle cross section was measured to be 0.12 and appears to be rising in this momentum region. The total cross section for strange-particle production is estimated as 1.8±0.2 mb. Comparison is made of the data with the predictions of the one-pion-exchange model, and at least partial agreement occurs for the K+pΛ and πKNΣ final states. The KpΣ states appear to contain N*(1924)→KΣ, and the πKNΛ states all include Y*(1385) production with the π+K0pΛ state also containing N*(1236) and K*(890) production. An examination of the five- and six-body K, Λ states indicates strong Y*(1385) and N*(1236) production. Finally, all final states containing a K and a Λ show a dependence on M(K,Λ) which is well parametrized by a Breit-Wigner shape with M0=1777 MeV and Γ=345 MeV. This behavior is interpreted as being consistent with one-pion exchange as the dominant mechanism for these reactions.

Search for Direct Single Photon Production at Large p(T) in Proton Proton Collisions at s**(1/2) = 62.4-GeV

The CERN-Columbia-Oxford-Rockefeller & CCOR collaborations Angelis, A.L.S. ; Besch, H.J. ; Blumenfeld, Barry J. ; et al.
Phys.Lett.B 94 (1980) 106-112, 1980.
Inspire Record 153483 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.27178

As part of a study of large p T phenomena in photon-proton collisions at the CERN ISR, a search for direct single photon production has been performed. A statistical division of the data sample into the fraction consistent with single photon and the fraction due to multiphoton decays of neutral hadrons is accomplished by measuring the average conversion probability for the sample in a one radiation length thick converter. The fraction of the sample attributable to direct single photon production is 〈 γ /all〉 = 0.074 ± 0.012 for 6 GeV/ c < p T 10 GeV/ c , and 〈 γ /all〉 = 0.26 ± 0.04 for p T > 10 GeV/ c , with an additional systematic uncertainty of ±0.05 for both values.

Nucleon and Nuclear Cross Sections for Positive Pions and Protons above 1.4 Bev/c

Longo, Michael J. ; Moyer, Burton J. ;
Phys.Rev. 125 (1962) 701-713, 1962.
Inspire Record 46829 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.26791

Total (π+, p) and (p, p) cross sections in the momentum range 1.4 to 4.0 Bev/c are presented. These measurements, with an accuracy of approximately 2%, were made at the Berkeley Bevatron by using counter techniques. Pions were distinguished from protons by means of a gas-filled Čerenkov counter. The (π+, p) total cross section was found to be almost constant above 2.0 Bev/c at a value near 29 mb. The (p, p) cross section decreases gradually from 47.5 mb to 41.7 mb over the momentum range covered. Transmission measurements of π+-nucleus and p-nucleus cross sections in both good and poor geometry were made at 3.0 Bev/c. The results are compared with the predictions of the optical model. In contrast to most previous work at high energies, an essentially exact solution of the wave equation for a potential well with a diffuse edge was used. The values of the imaginary part of the optical potential that best fit the experimental data are in good agreement with the predicted values. No strong conclusion regarding the real part of the potential was possible. Absorption and total elastic scattering cross sections for Be, C, Al, and Cu are presented. The total elastic scattering cross sections from this experiment disagree with Wikner's for π−-nucleus scattering.

A bubble chamber study of proton-proton interactions at 4 GeV/c Part I—Elastic scattering, single-pion and deuteron production

Ooletti, S. ; Kidd, J. ; Mandelli, L. ; et al.
Nuovo Cim.A 49 (1967) 479-498, 1967.
Inspire Record 1185329 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.981

Elastic scattering, single-pion and deuteron production have been investigated. The cross-section for elastic scattering is σelastic = (13.5±0.3) mb. The angular distribution has been fitted to dσ/d|t|=(dσ/d|t|)0 e −bt in the region of low values oft. The best fit givesb=(6.7±0.5) (GeV/c)−2 and (dσ/d|t|)0=(91±5) mb(GeV/c)−2. The cross-sections for ppπ0, pnπ+ reactions are respectively (2.6±0.3) mb and (9.7±0.4) mb. These reactions are dominated by the (3/2, 3/2) nucleonpion isobar production and by forward backward collimation of the nucleons. The production rates for the isobars ++1238 , +1238 , +1500 have been estimated, taking into account the experimental peripheral behaviour of the interaction. In the pnπ+ reaction they are (50±2)%; (10±3)%; (4±3)%. In the ppπ+ reaction the production of ++1238 is estimated to be (45±10)%. The dπ+ and dπ+π+π- reaction cross-sections are respectively (0.03±0.01) mb, and (0.04±0.01) mb.

New measurements of proton proton total cross-section at the CERN intersecting storage rings

The CERN-Pisa-Rome-Stony Brook collaboration Amaldi, U. ; Cocconi, G. ; Diddens, A.N. ; et al.
Phys.Lett.B 62 (1976) 460-466, 1976.
Inspire Record 108915 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.27653

Measurements of the proton-proton total cross section have been made with increased precision (±0.6%) over the ISR energy range s =23.5−62.7 GeV . Two different experimental methods gave consistent results, showing that the total cross section increases 10% over the ISR range and in addition that the absolute value of the ISR luminosity can be measured to ±0.9%.

The Real Part of the Forward Proton Proton Scattering Amplitude Measured at the CERN Intersecting Storage Rings

Amaldi, U. ; Cocconi, G. ; Diddens, A.N. ; et al.
Phys.Lett.B 66 (1977) 390-394, 1977.
Inspire Record 110800 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.27584

The real part of the proton proton elastic scattering amplitude has been determined from its interference with the Coulomb amplitude at total centre-of-mass energies up to 62 GeV. The observed steady increase of ϱ with energy indicates that the total proton proton cross section continues to increase well beyond this energy.

Measurement of the Transverse Spin Dependence of the p p Total Cross-Section in the 1-GeV/c-3-GeV/c Region

Biegert, E.K. ; Buchanan, J.A. ; Clement, J.M. ; et al.
Phys.Lett.B 73 (1978) 235-238, 1978.
Inspire Record 134224 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.27471

The pp total cross section difference between pure transverse spin states was measured in the laboratory momentum range 1–3 GeV/ c . Significant differences were found and these differences show striking energy dependence. This structure is in disagreement with the predictions of simple exchange models.

In a 35 000-picture exposure of the 30-in. hydrogen bubble chamber to a 300-GeV/c proton beam at the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory, 10054 interactions have been observed. The measured total cross section is $40.68 \pm 0.55$ mb, the elastic cross section is $7.89 \pm 0.52$ mb, and the average charged-particle multiplicity for inelastic events is $8.S0 \pm 0.12$.

Measurement of p- p and p- d total cross-sections at 3.00 gev/c

Abrams, R.J. ; Cool, R.L. ; Giacomelli, G. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.D 1 (1970) 2477-2480, 1970.
Inspire Record 61714 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.4928

In a new measurement of proton total cross sections at 3.00 GeV/c, the p−d total cross section is found to be lower than a previous measurement by 1.17±0.09 mb. This implies a corresponding new value for the total cross section for I=0 which is 2.18±0.27 mb lower than the previous value. Possible sources of systematic error are discussed.
