DIJET PRODUCTION CROSS-SECTION AND FRAGMENTATION OF JETS PRODUCED IN P P COLLISIONS AT S**(1/2) = 63-GEV

We present stdies of events triggered on two high-pT jets, produced inpp collisions at the CERN Intersecting Storage Rings (ISR) at\(\sqrt s \)=63 GeV, using a large solid angle calorimeter. The cross-section for producing two jets is measured in the dijet mass range 17–50 GeV/c2. A high-statistics sample of dijet events, where each jet has transverse energy above 10 GeV, is used to study the structure of jets and the associated event. We find the longitudinal fragmentation function to be similar to that of jets emerging frome+e− collisions but considerably harder than that observed at the Super Proton Synchrotron (SPS)\(p\bar p\) Collider. A steepening of the fragmentation function is observed when increasing the jet energy. Studies of the charge distribution in jets show that these predominantly originate from fragmenting valence quarks. The transverse energy and particle flows are presented as functions of the azimuthal distance from the jet axis.

Inclusive $\eta$ Production at Low Transverse Momentum in 63-{GeV} $p p$ Collisions at the {CERN} Intersecting Storage Rings

The inclusive production of η-mesons in pp collisions at √ s =63GeV and ϑ CM =90° has been measured for p T <1.5GeV/c. The η/π ratio decreases from its previously measured asymptotic value of η/π ∼ 0.5 at high transverse momentum, to η/π ≈0.3 at P T = 750MeV/c and η/π ≈ 0.01 at P T =300MeV/c, in a way that consistent with phase-space considerations, e.g. m T scaling. The η/π ratio, integrated from 0.2–1.5 GeV/ c , is found to be η/π=0.07±0.055.

Direct Photon Plus Away - Side Jet Production in $p p$ Collisions at $s^1$/2 = 63-{GeV} and a Determination of the Gluon Distribution

Inspire Record 235690 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.15800

We have determined the double inclusive cross-section for opposite-side high-pT photons and away-side jets withθγ≈θjet≈90° produced inpp collisions at the CERN Intersecting Storage Rings at\(\sqrt s= 63\) GeV. Under the assumption that these events arise predominantly from the QCD gluon Compton process we have calculated the gluon structure function in the range 0.15≦x≦0.30 at an average square of the four-momentum transfer of 40 GeV2/c2. The data favour a soft gluon distribution in the proton.

The Production of Prompt Positrons at Low Transverse Momentum Increases With the Square of the Associated Charged Multiplicity

Phys.Lett.B 192 (1987) 463-470, 1987.

We have measured the production of prompt positrons in pp collisions at √ s = 63 GeV and y = 0 in the p T interval 0.12< p T <1.0 GeV/c. The results indicate that the production of positrons at low p T (<0.4 GeV/ c ) is proportional to the square of the mean multiplicity in the central region | y | < 1. Such a quadratic dependence is not expected from final-state sources such as hadronic bremsstrahlung or hadronic decays, but is natural in models where low mass electron pairs are produced by interactions of constituents created during the collision.

Search for Direct $\gamma$ Production at Low Transverse Momentum in 63-{GeV} $p p$ Collisions

Phys.Rev.D 36 (1987) 2615, 1987.
Inspire Record 246577 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.23325

We have searched for direct photons of low PT (≤1.0 GeV/c) at θc.m.=90° in pp collisions at √s =63 GeV. We used two independent methods: direct detection in NaI crystals and conversion to e+e− pairs. No signal is observed; the photon spectrum is well described by the decay of hadrons. The result is consistent with a direct low-PT photon signal reported at √s =12 GeV, but excludes a rapid growth of soft-photon production with √s .

Inspire Record 250759 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.15655

The transverse energy cross-sectiondσ/dET has been measured in the pseudorapidity region 0.6<η<2.4 for hadron-lead collisions at 200 GeV/c incident hadron momentum. TheET distribution extends to 40 GeV, which is twice the kinematic limit forp-p collisions at the same incident beam momentum. The distribution ofET is found to shift towards low pseudorapidities with increasing total transverse energy.

The transverse-momentum spectra of lambdas (Λ0, Λ¯0) produced in the central region has been measured in p¯p collisions at s=1.8 TeV at the Fermilab Collider. We find that the average transverse momentum of the lambdas increases more rapidly with center-of-mass energy than that of charged particles, and the ratio of lambdas to charged particles increases as a function of center-of-mass energy.

Calorimeter measurements of dσ de t for pp, dd, pα , and αα collisions at S nn =31.5 GeV are presented for the pseudorapidity interval | η cm | ⩽ 0.7, extending over eight decades to E t ⩾ 30 GeV. The data are compared with models that predict nuclear cross sections directly from pp data, under the assumption of independent nucleon scatters.
