The charmonium χ states are observed in both π− and p Be interactions near 200 GeV/c via their radiative decay into J/ψ. The χ(3510) and χ(3555) are produced with roughly equal cross sections in π− collisions while the χ(3555) dominates in p collisions. Simple gluon fusion can account for χ production with incident protons but additional mechanisms are needed for incident π−.

$D$ Meson Branching Ratios and Hadronic Charm Production Cross-sections

The LEBC-EHS collaboration Aguilar-Benitez, M. ; Allison, W.W.M. ; Bagnaia, P. ; et al.
Phys.Lett.B 135 (1984) 237-242, 1984.
Inspire Record 193696 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.30599

A determination of branching ratios for D meson decays into all charged particle final states is reported. The values obtained: (D ± → K ∓ π ± π ± /all D ± ) = (14 ± 6)% and ( D 0 /D 0 → K ± π ∓ π + π − /all D 0 /D 0 ) = (10 ± 4)%, are higher than those currently accepted. This result, if confirmed, implies a corresponding reduction in the accepted values for some total cross section measurements. Revised inclusive cross sections for D meson production in the forward hemisphere in π − p and pp interactions at 360 GeV/ c , are presented.

Inclusive cross sections and invariant single-particle distributions are presented for positive pions and protons produced in 8.05-GeV/c π−p and 18.5-GeV/c π±p inclusive reactions. Distributions in pT2 and in the longitudinal variables x, y (c.m.) and pl (lab) are shown. Comparisons are made with inclusive distributions for other particles produced in the same reactions.

Measurements of Production Polarization and Decay Asymmetry for $\Xi^-$ Hyperons

Phys.Rev.D 33 (1986) 3172-3179, 1986.
Inspire Record 233005 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.23517

The polarization of Ξ− hyperons produced by 400-GeV protons in the reaction p+Be→Ξ−+X has been measured as a function of momentum at two production angles. The average polarization for the full sample (192 110 events) was -0.108±0.007. Comparisons are made with polarization measurements for other hyperons produced under similar conditions. From the same data, αΛαΞ was measured to be -0.303±0.004±0.004, where αΛ is the asymmetry parameter in the decay Λ→pπ−, αΞ is the asymmetry parameter in the decay Ξ−→Λπ−, and the uncertainties are statistical and systematic, respectively. This yields αΞ=-0.472±0.006±0.011, where the systematic uncertainty is dominated by the uncertainty in αΛ. An updated test of the ΔI=1/2 rule in Ξ decay is presented.

Inspire Record 196831 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.20515

The polarization of Ξ0 and Λ hyperons produced by 400-GeV protons interacting with a beryllium target has been measured in the projectile fragmentation region. The Ξ0 polarization agrees in sign, magnitude, and kinematic behavior with that of Λ. The target dependence of these Ξ0 and Λ polarizations was also investigated with use of Cu and Pb targets.

The polarization of 26 000 Σ+ hyperons produced by 400-GeV protons on Be has been measured. The polarizations of Σ+ and Λ hyperons have the opposite sign. The magnitude increases with momentum at 5-mrad production angle, and averages 22% over the momentum range 140 to 280 GeV/c.

Forward Inclusive Production Spectrum of $K(s$), $\Lambda^0$, $\bar{\Lambda}$0, and $n$ in the Collision of 200-{GeV}/$c \pi^-$, $K^-$, $\bar{p}$ and $p$ on Be

Inspire Record 6216 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.24325

We have measured the forward production spectra of various neutral particles produced by π−, K−, p¯, and p at 200 GeV/c, and by π− at 290 GeV/c incident on a Be target. The salient features of these measurements are (1) copious production of KSo at large Feynman xL for incident π− and K−, (2) production of roughly equal fluxes of Λ0 and Λ¯0 for incident π−, and (3) close similarity of the following spectra: π−→n and K−→Λ0; π−→Λ0, π−→Λ¯0, and p→KS0; π−→KS0 and p→Λ0. The overall features of the various distributions seem to agree with the ideas of dimensional counting presented in the constituent-interchange model of quark collisions. Results are presented in terms of the invariant cross section Ed3σ(xL, PT=0)dp3 per Be nucleus for each inclusive reaction.

High Transverse Energy and High Transverse Momentum Events in $p \bar{p}$ and $p p$ Interactions at the {CERN} Intersecting Storage Rings

The CMOR collaboration Angelis, A.L.S. ; Basini, G. ; Besch, H.J. ; et al.

Inspire Record 216800 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.33698

A comparison between p p and pp interactions at √ s = 52.7 GeV is presented for a total neutral transverse energy ( E T o ) trigger and for a high transverse momentum ( p T ) neutral cluster trigger. The rate of production of events in the range 6< E T o <20 GeV is observed to be 10% higher in p p collisions than in pp collisions. A study of the structure of the events shows this excess to be due to more isotropic events being produced in p p collisions. The ratio of the production cross section for single neutral clusters in p p and pp interactions in the range 1.25< p T <10 GeV/ c does not significantly differ from unity.

Inspire Record 202452 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.33870

Most events with high neutral transverse energy, E T 0 , produced in pp colisions at √ s = 62.3 GeV, are jet-like. The evidence for this is presented, based on data collected using an electromagnetic calorimeter covering 90% of 2π in azimuth. The spectrum d N /d E T 0 has been measured over the E T 0 range from 10 to 35 GeV. Properties of the observed jets are discussed.

High $p_T \pi^0$ Production From $\alpha \alpha$ and $\alpha p$ Collisions at the {CERN} {ISR}

The invariant cross sections for π 0 meson production in alpha—alpha and alpha—proton collisions at the ISR were meas- ured up to transverse momenta of 7 GeV c and 8 GeV c , respectively. These measurements are compared with π 0 production in pp collisions at the same values of s / nucleon, and the variation of the nuclear A -dependence with p T is determined.
