Abstract: The DØ experiment enjoyed a very successful data-collection run at the Fermilab Tevatron collider between 1992 and 1996. Since then, the detector has been upgraded to take advantage of improvements to the Tevatron and to enhance its physics capabilities. We describe the new elements of the detector, including the silicon microstrip tracker, central fiber tracker, solenoidal magnet, preshower detectors, forward muon detector, and forward proton detector. The uranium/liquid-argon calorimeters and central muon detector, remaining from Run I, are discussed briefly. We also present the associated electronics, triggering, and data acquisition systems, along with the design and implementation of software specific to DØ. © 2006 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Abstract: Using the DO detector, we have observed events produced in (p) over barp collisions that contain W or Z bosons in conjunction with very little energy deposition ("rapidity gaps") in large forward regions of the detector. The fraction of W boson events with a rapidity gap (a signature for diffraction) is 0.89 +/- (0.19)(0.17)% and the probability that the non-diffractive background fluctuated to yield the observed diffractive signal is 3 x 10(-14), corresponding to a significance of 7.5 sigma. The Z boson sample has a gap fraction of 1.44 +/- (0.61)(0.52)%, with a significance of 4.4 sigma. The diffractive events have very similar properties to the more common non-diffractive component.

Abstract: We examine properties of ttbar candidates events in lepton+jets final states to establish the helicities of the W bosons in t->W+b decays. Our analysis is based on a direct calculation of a probability that each event corresponds to a ttbar final state, as a function of the helicity of the W boson. We use the 125 events/pb sample of data collected by the DO experiment during Run I of the Fermilab Tevatron collider at sqrt{s}=1.8 TeV, and obtain a longitudinal helicity fraction of F_0=0.56+/-0.31, which is consistent with the prediction of F_0=0.70 from the standard model.

Abstract: We report a search for effects of large extra spatial dimensions in ppbar collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 1.8 TeV with the DZero detector, using events containing a pair of electrons or photons. The data are in good agreement with the expected background and do not exhibit evidence for large extra dimensions. We set the most restrictive lower limits to date, at the 95% confidence level, on the effective Planck scale between 1.0 TeV and 1.4 TeV for several formalisms and numbers of extra dimensions., Comment: 6 pages, 2 figures, submitted to Phys.

5. Single-Concept Clicker Question Sequences

Author: Albert Lee, Lei Bao, N. W. Reay, and Lin Ding
Subjects: Science instruction, Sequence, Physics education, Mathematics education, General Physics and Astronomy, Polling, Education, Mathematics, Clicker
Abstract: Students typically use electronic polling systems, or clickers, to answer individual questions. Differing from this tradition, we have developed a new clicker methodology in which multiple clicker questions targeting the same underlying concept but with different surface features are grouped into a sequence. Here we present the creation, validation, and evaluation of clicker question sequences sufficient in number to populate a year of calculus-based introductory physics.

6. Are we asking the right questions? Validating clicker question sequences by student interviews

Subjects: Physics, Response model, Process (engineering), Physics education, ComputingMilieux_COMPUTERSANDEDUCATION, Mathematics education, General Physics and Astronomy, Clicker
Abstract: When answering physics questions, students often have different perspectives than do physics experts. Sometimes this difference does not mean students possess misconceptions, but might indicate that the questions need to be revised. We conducted student interviews to identify and resolve validity issues that stem from the different perspectives of students and question designers. After interviews with 35 student volunteers, we selected 14 verbal and detail-oriented individuals for repeated interviews. Instead of using interviews for soliciting and confirming students’ incorrect answers, we conducted interviews as a “student consultation” process that revealed validity issues missed by physics experts. A four-stage response model was used to examine student verbal reports, and validity issues corresponding to each of the response stages were uncovered.

Abstract: A new question methodology has been developed and used with voting machines in large physics lecture classrooms. The methodology was tested by comparing student performance in voting machine and non-voting machine lecture sections during three consecutive electricity and magnetism quarters of introductory calculus-based physics. Data from The Conceptual Survey of Electricity and Magnetism and common examination questions indicates that students using voting machines achieved a significant gain in conceptual learning, and that voting machines reduced the gap between male and female student performances on tests. Surveys indicated that students were positive about the use of voting machines and believed that they helped them learn. The surveys also suggested that grading voting machines responses and/or overusing voting machines may lower student enthusiasm.

Abstract: A “voting machine” is a generic name for wireless-keypad in-class polling systems used by students to answer multiple-choice questions during lectures. We present our experiences gained while distributing and using voting machine modules. Using voting machines with carefully designed sets of multiple-choice questions and instantaneous voting summaries improved classroom dynamics and provided students with several opportunities per concept to test their understanding. Three question sets developed for the electricity and magnetism quarter of a year-long introductory physics course are included as examples.

Abstract: We have searched for the signature of 3- and 4-body decays of pair-produced scalar top quarks (stop) in the inclusive final state containing an electron, a muon, and significant missing transverse energy using a sample of p p events corresponding to 108.3 pb−1 of data collected with the DO detector at Fermilab. The search is done in the framework of the minimal supersymmetric standard model assuming that the neutralino ( χ 0 1 ) is the lightest supersymmetric particle and is stable. No evidence for a signal is found and we derive cross-section upper limits as a function of stop (t) and neutralino masses in different decay scenarios leading to the blν χ 0 1 final state.

Abstract: The BL Lac object H1426+428 was recently detected as a high energy gamma-ray source by the VERITAS collaboration (Horan et al. 2002). We have reanalyzed the 2001 portion of the data used in the detection in order to examine the spectrum of H1426+428 above 250 GeV. We find that the time-averaged spectrum agrees with a power law of the shape dF/dE = 10^(-7.31 +- 0.15(stat) +- 0.16(syst)) x E^(-3.50 +- 0.35(stat) +- 0.05(syst)) m^(-2)s^(-1)TeV^(-1) The statistical evidence from our data for emission above 2.5 TeV is 2.6 sigma. With 95% c.l., the integral flux of H1426+428 above 2.5 TeV is larger than 3% of the corresponding flux from the Crab Nebula. The spectrum is consistent with the (non-contemporaneous) measurement by Aharonian et al. (2002) both in shape and in normalization. Below 800 GeV, the data clearly favours a spectrum steeper than that of any other TeV Blazar observed so far indicating a difference in the processes involved either at the source or in the intervening space., Comment: LaTeX, 8 pages, 4 figures, accepted for publication in ApJ

Abstract: Using the D empty set detector, we have studied events produced in (p) over barp collisions that contain large forward regions with very little energy deposition ("rapidity gaps") and concurrent jet production at center-of-mass energies of roots = 630 and 1800 GeV. The fraction of events with forward or central jets associated with rapidity gaps is compared to predictions for hard diffraction. We also extract the momentum loss for scattered protons in such processes. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

Abstract: Exceptionally strong and long lasting flaring activity of the blazar Markarian 421 (Mrk 421) occurred between January and March 2001. Based on the excellent signal-to-noise ratio of the data we derive the energy spectrum between 260 GeV - 17 TeV with unprecedented statistical precision. The spectrum is not well described by a simple power law even with a curvature term. Instead the data can be described by a power law with exponential cutoff: $\rm {{dN}\over{dE}} \propto \rm E^{-2.14 \pm 0.03_{stat}} \times e^{-E/E_{0}} m^{-2} s^{-1} TeV^{-1}$ with $\rm E_{0} = 4.3 \pm 0.3_{stat} TeV$. Mrk 421 is the second $\gamma$-ray blazar that unambiguously exhibits an absorption-like feature in its spectral energy distribution at 3-6 TeV suggesting that this may be a universal phenomenon, possibly due to the extragalactic infra-red background radiation.

Abstract: We report results of a search for flavor-changing neutral current (FCNC), lepton flavor, and lepton-number violating decays of the ${D}^{0}$ (and its antiparticle) into three and four bodies. Using data from Fermilab charm hadroproduction experiment E791, we examine modes with two leptons (muons or electrons) and a ${\ensuremath{\rho}}^{0}$, ${\overline{K}}^{*0}$, or $\ensuremath{\varphi}$ vector meson or a nonresonant $\ensuremath{\pi}\ensuremath{\pi}$, $K\ensuremath{\pi}$, or $\mathrm{KK}$ pair of pseudoscalar mesons. No evidence for any of these decays is found. Therefore, we present branching-fraction upper limits at 90% confidence level for the 27 decay modes examined (18 new).

Abstract: We apply a quasi-model-independent strategy ("Sleuth") to search for new high p_T physics in approximately 100 pb^-1 of ppbar collisions at sqrt(s) = 1.8 TeV collected by the DZero experiment during 1992-1996 at the Fermilab Tevatron. We systematically analyze many exclusive final states and demonstrate sensitivity to a variety of models predicting new phenomena at the electroweak scale. No evidence of new high p_T physics is observed.

Abstract: We report on a study of the ratio of inclusive three-jet to inclusive two-jet production cross sections as a function of total transverse energy in p (p) over bar collisions at it center-of-mass energy roots = 1.8 TeV, using data collected with the DO detector during the 1992-1993 run of the Fermilab Tevatron Collider. The measurements are used to deduce preferred renormalization scales in perturbative O(alpha (3)(s)) QCD calculations in modeling soft-jet emission.

Abstract: We report a new measurement of the pseudorapidity (eta) and transverse-energy (Et) dependence of the inclusive jet production cross section in pbar b collisions at sqrt(s) = 1.8 TeV using 95 pb**-1 of data collected with the DZero detector at the Fermilab Tevatron. The differential cross section d^2sigma/dEt deta is presented up to |eta| = 3, significantly extending previous measurements. The results are in good overall agreement with next-to-leading order predictions from QCD and indicate a preference for certain parton distribution functions.

Abstract: From a sample of $848\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}44$ ${D}_{s}^{+}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}{\ensuremath{\pi}}^{\ensuremath{-}}{\ensuremath{\pi}}^{+}{\ensuremath{\pi}}^{+}$ decays, we find $\ensuremath{\Gamma}({D}_{s}^{+}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}{\ensuremath{\pi}}^{\ensuremath{-}}{\ensuremath{\pi}}^{+}{\ensuremath{\pi}}^{+})/\ensuremath{\Gamma}({D}_{s}^{+}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}\ensuremath{\varphi}{\ensuremath{\pi}}^{+})\phantom{\rule{0ex}{0ex}}=\phantom{\rule{0ex}{0ex}}0.245\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}{0.028}_{\ensuremath{-}0.012}^{+0.019}$. Using a Dalitz plot analysis of this three body decay, we find significant contributions from the channels ${\ensuremath{\rho}}^{0}(770){\ensuremath{\pi}}^{+}$, ${\ensuremath{\rho}}^{0}(1450){\ensuremath{\pi}}^{+}$, ${f}_{0}(980){\ensuremath{\pi}}^{+}$, ${f}_{2}(1270){\ensuremath{\pi}}^{+}$, and ${f}_{0}(1370){\ensuremath{\pi}}^{+}$. We also present the values obtained for masses and widths of the resonances ${f}_{0}(980)$ and ${f}_{0}(1370)$.

Abstract: From a sample of 1172 +/- 61 D(+)-->pi(-)pi(+)pi(+) decays, we find gamma(D(+)-->pi(-)pi(+)pi(+))/gamma(D(+)-->K-pi(+)pi(+)) = 0.0311 +/- 0.0018(+0.0016)(-0.0026). Using a coherent amplitude analysis to fit the Dalitz plot of these decays, we find strong evidence that a scalar resonance of mass 478(+24)(-23) +/- 17 MeV/c(2) and width 324(+42)(-40) +/- 21 MeV/c(2) accounts for approximately half of all decays.

Abstract: Bottom quark production in pbar-p collisions at sqrt(s)=1.8 TeV is studied with 5 inverse picobarns of data collected in 1995 by the DO detector at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider. The differential production cross section for b jets in the central rapidity region (|y(b)| < 1) as a function of jet transverse energy is extracted from a muon-tagged jet sample. Within experimental and theoretical uncertainties, DO results are found to be higher than, but compatible with, next-to-leading-order QCD predictions.

Abstract: We present a measurement of asymmetries in the production of Λ c + and Λ c − baryons in 500 GeV/ c π − -nucleon interactions from the E791 experiment at Fermilab. The asymmetries were measured as functions of Feynman x ( x F ) and transverse momentum squared ( p T 2 ) using a sample of 1 819±62 Λ c 's observed in the decay channel Λ c + → pK − π + . We observe more Λ c + than Λ c − baryons, with an asymmetry of (12.7±3.4±1.3)% independent of x F and p T 2 in our kinematical range (−0.1⩽ x F ⩽0.6 and 0.0⩽ p T 2 ⩽8.0 (GeV/ c ) 2 ). This Λ c asymmetry measurement is the first with data in both the positive and negative x F regions.

Abstract: We present a study of correlations between D and $${\overline D}$$ mesons produced in 500 GeV/cπ−-nucleon interactions, based on data from experiment E791 at Fermilab. We have fully reconstructed 791 ± 44 charm meson pairs to study correlations between the transverse and longitudinal momenta of the two D mesons and the relative production rates for different types of D meson pairs. We see slight correlations between the longitudinal momenta of the D and the $${\bar D}$$ , and significant correlations between the azimuthal angle of the D and the $${\bar D}$$ . The experimental distributions are compared to a next-to-leading-order QCD calculation and to predictions of the PYTHIA/JETSET Monte Carlo event generator. We observe less correlation between transverse momenta and different correlations between longitudinal momenta than these models predict for the default values of the model parameters. Better agreement between data and theory might be achieved by tuning the model parameters or by adding higher order perturbative terms, thus contributing to a better understanding of charm production. The relative production rates for the four sets of charm pairs, $$D^0{{\overline D}^0}, D^0 D^{-}, D^+{{\overline D}^0}, D^+ D^{-}$$ as calculated in the PYTHIA/JETSET event generator with the default parameters, agree with data as far as the relative ordering, but predict too many $$D^+ {{\overline D}^0}$$ pairs and too few $$D^+ D^{-}$$ pairs.

Abstract: The D0 collaboration has performed a study of spin correlation in tt-bar production for the process tt-bar to bb-bar W^+W^-, where the W bosons decay to e-nu or mu-nu. A sample of six events was collected during an exposure of the D0 detector to an integrated luminosity of approximately 125 pb^-1 of sqrt{s}=1.8 TeV pp-bar collisions. The standard model (SM) predicts that the short lifetime of the top quark ensures the transmission of any spin information at production to the tt-bar decay products. The degree of spin correlation is characterized by a correlation coefficient k. We find that k>-0.25 at the 68% confidence level, in agreement with the SM prediction of k=0.88.

Abstract: of data collected with the DO detector during 1993-1995. We find that a(p (p) over bar --> W + X)B(W --> tau nu) = 2.22 +/- 0.09 (stat) +/- 0.10 (syst) +/- 0.10 (lum) nb. Lepton universality predicts that the ratio of the tau and electron electroweak charged current couplings to the W boson, g(T)(W)/g(e)(W), be unity. We find g(T)(W)/g(e)(W) = 0.980 +/- 0.031, in agreement with lepton universality.

Abstract: Inclusive dijet production at large pseudorapidity intervals (Delta eta) between the two jets has been suggested as a regime for observing Balitsky-Fadin-Kuraev-Lipatov (BFKL) dynamics. We have measured the dijet cross section for large Delta eta in p (p) over bar collisions at root s = 1800 and 630 GeV using the D0 detector. The partonic cross section increases strongly with the size of Delta eta; The observed growth is even stronger than expected on the basis of BFKL resummation in the leading logarithmic approximation. The growth of the partonic cross section can be accommodated with an effective BFKL intercept of alpha(BFKL)(20 GeV) = 1.65 +/- 0.07.

Abstract: This Letter describes a measurement of the muon cross section originating from b quark decay in the forward rapidity range 2.4 < y(mu) < 3.2 in pbarp collisions at sqrt(s) = 1.8 TeV. The data used in this analysis were collected by the D0 experiment at the Fermilab Tevatron. We find that NLO QCD calculations underestimate b quark production by a factor of four in the forward rapidity region. A cross section measurement using muon+jet data has been included in this version of the paper.

Abstract: We present a measurement of the transverse momentum distribution of Z bosons produced in ppbar collisions at sqrt{s}=1.8 TeV using data collected by the D0 experiment at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider during 1994--1996. We find good agreement between our data and a current resummation calculation. We also use our data to extract values of the non-perturbative parameters for a particular version of the resummation formalism, obtaining significantly more precise values than previous determinations.

Abstract: We report on a search for second generation leptoquarks (LQ) produced in p (p) over bar collisions at root s = 1.8 TeV using the DO detector at Fermilab. Second generation leptoquarks are assumed to be produced in pairs and to decay to either mu. or nu and either a strange or a charm quark (q). Limits an placed on sigma(p (p) over bar --> LQ --> mu nu + jets) as a function of the mass of the leptoquark. For equal branching ratios to mu q and nu q, second generation scalar leptoquarks with a mass below 160 GeV/c(2), vector leptoquarks with anomalous minimal vector couplings with a mass below 240 GeV/c(2), and vector leptoquarks with Yang-Mills couplings with a mass below 290 GeV/c(2), are excluded at the 95% confidence level.

Abstract: Novel detector schemes are proposed for the short-baseline neutrino experiments of next generation, aimed at exploring the large-$\Delta m^2$ domain of \omutau oscillations in the appearance mode. These schemes emphasize good spectrometry for charged particles and for electromagnetic showers and efficient reconstruction of \ypi_gg decays. The basic elements are a sequence of relatively thin emulsion targets, immersed in magnetic field and interspersed with electronic trackers, and a fine-grained electromagnetic calorimeter built of lead glass. These elements act as an integral whole in reconstructing the electromagnetic showers. This conceptual scheme shows good performance in identifying the $\tau$ (quasi-)two-body decays by their characteristic kinematics and in selecting the electronic decays of the $\tau$., Comment: 34 pages, 8 figures

Abstract: We have searched for evidence of the production and decay of a neutral bound-state pentaquark, one of a predicted doublet of states: P 0 c s =| c suud〉 and P − c s =| c sddu〉 . Specifically, we have searched for the decay P 0 c s →K ∗0 K − p in data from Fermilab experiment E791, in which a 500 GeV/c π− beam interacted with nuclear targets. We find mass-dependent upper limits at the 90% confidence level for the ratio of cross section times branching fraction of this decay relative to that for the decay D s − →K ∗0 K − . The upper limits vary between 0.016 and 0.036 for M(P 0 c s ) between 2.75 and 2.91 GeV/c2, assuming a pentaquark lifetime of 0.4 ps.

Abstract: We report results of the first search for the pentaquark P_{{c bar}s} which is predicted to be a doublet of states: P^0_{{c bar}s}=({c bar} s u u d) and P^-_{{c bar}s}=({c bar} s d d u). A search was made for the decay P^0_{{c bar}s} --> phi,pi,p in data from Fermilab experiment E791, in which 500 GeV/c pi^- beam interacted with nuclear targets. We present upper limits at 90% confidence level for the ratio of cross section times branching fraction of this decay to that for the decay D_s --> phi,pi. The upper limits are 0.031 and 0.063 for M(P^0_{{c bar}s}) = 2.75 and 2.86 GeV/c^2, respectively, assuming a P^0_{{c bar}s} lifetime of 0.4 ps.

Abstract: Using the large hadroproduced charm sample collected in experiment E791 at Fermilab, we have measured ratios of branching fractions for the two-body singly-Cabibbo-suppressed charged decays of the D0: (D0 -> KK)/(D0 -> Kpi) = 0.109 +- 0.003 +- 0.003, (D0 -> pipi)/(D0 -> Kpi) = 0.040 +- 0.002 +- 0.003, and (D0 -> KK)/(D0 -> pipi) = 2.75 +- 0.15 +- 0.16. We have looked for differences in the decay rates of D0 and D0bar to the CP eigenstates K+K- and pi+pi-, and have measured the CP asymmetry parameters A_CP(K+K-) = -0.010 +- 0.049 +- 0.012 and A_CP(pi+pi-) = -0.049 +- 0.078 +- 0.030, both consistent with zero., Comment: 10 Postscript pages, including 2 figures.

Abstract: Using data from Fermilab fixed-target experiment E791, we measure the branching ratio for D 0 → K − K + π − π + and its resonant components. We find Γ(D 0 →K − K + π − π + ) Γ(D 0 →K − π + π − π + ) =(3.13±0.37±0.36) %. A coherent amplitude analysis is used to estimate the resonant components. We measure the ratios Γ(D 0 →f) Γ(D 0 →K − π + π − π + ) to be (2.0±0.9±0.8)% for f = φρ 0 , (0.9±0.4±0.5)% for f = φπ + π − , f=K ∗0 (892) K ∗0 (892) , and f= K ∗0 (892)K + π − or K ∗0 (892)K − π + .

Abstract: We present a measurement of the form-factor ratios r_V=V(0)/A_1(0) and r_2=A_2(0)/A_1(0) for the decay D^+ -> \overline K^{*0} e^+ \nu_e. The measurement is based on a signal of approximately 3000 $D^+ -> \overline K^{*0} e^+ \nu_e, \overline K^{*0} -> K^-\pi^+$ decays reconstructed in data from charm hadroproduction experiment E791 at Fermilab. The results are r_V = 1.84 +- 0.11 +- 0.08 and r_2 = 0.71 +- 0.08 +- 0.09.

Abstract: We present results of a search for ${D}^{0}\ensuremath{-}{D}^{0}$ mixing and doubly-Cabibbo-suppressed decays of the ${D}^{0}$ in Fermilab experiment E791, a fixed-target charm hadroproduction experiment. We look for evidence of mixing in the decay chain ${D}^{*}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}\ensuremath{\pi}\stackrel{\ensuremath{\rightarrow}}{D}\ensuremath{\pi}(K\ensuremath{\pi}$ or $K\ensuremath{\pi}\ensuremath{\pi}\ensuremath{\pi})$. If the charge of the pion from the ${D}^{*}$ decay is the same as the charge of the kaon from the $D$ decay (a ``wrong-sign'' event), mixing may have occurred. Mixing can be distinguished from other sources of wrong-sign events (such as doubly-Cabibbo-suppressed decays) by analyzing the distribution of decay times. We see no evidence of mixing. Allowing for $\mathrm{CP}$ violation in the interference between DCS and mixing amplitudes our fitted ratio for mixed to unmixed decay rates is ${r}_{\mathrm{mix}}{=(0.39}_{\ensuremath{-}0.32}^{+0.36}\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.16)%$. This corresponds to a 90% C.L. upper limit of ${r}_{\mathrm{mix}}l0.85%$. The sensitivity of this result is comparable to that of previous measurements, but the assumptions made in fitting the data are notably more general. We present results from many fits to our data under various assumptions. If we assume ${r}_{\mathrm{mix}}=0$, we find a two-sigma wrong-sign enhancement in the $K\ensuremath{\pi}$ mode which we ascribe to doubly Cabibbo-suppressed decays. The ratios of doubly Cabibbo-suppressed decays to Cabibbo-favored decays are ${r}_{\mathrm{dcs}}(K\ensuremath{\pi}{)=(0.68}_{\ensuremath{-}0.33}^{+0.34}\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.07)%$ and ${r}_{\mathrm{dcs}}(K\ensuremath{\pi}\ensuremath{\pi}\ensuremath{\pi}{)=(0.25}_{\ensuremath{-}0.34}^{+0.36}\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.03)%$.

Abstract: We present measurements of the production of Ds− mesons relative to Ds+ mesons as functions of xF and of pt2 for a sample of 2445 Ds decays to φπ. The Ds mesons were produced in Fermilab experiment E791 with 500 GeV/c π− mesons incident on one platinum and four carbon foil targets. The acceptance-corrected integrated asymmetry in the xF range −0.1 to 0.5 for Ds± mesons is 0.032 ± 0.022 ± 0.022, consistent with no net asymmetry. We compare the results as functions of xF and pt2 to predictions and to the large production asymmetry observed for D± mesons in the same experiment. These comparisons support the hypothesis that production asymmetries come from the fragmentation process and not from the charm quark production itself.

Abstract: We report the observation of the doubly Cabibbo-suppressed decay D + → K + π − π + in data from Fermilab charm hadroproduction experiment E791. With a signal of 59 ± 13 events we measured the ratio of the branching fraction for this mode to that of the Cabibbo-favored decay D + → K − π + π + to be B (D + → K + π − π + ) / B ( D + → K − π + π + ) = (7.7 ± 1.7 ± 0.8) × 10 −3 . A Dalitz plot analysis was performed to search for resonant structures.

Abstract: We have observed $23.2 \pm 6.0_{-0.9}^{+1.0}$ purely-leptonic decays of $D_s^+ -> \mu^+ \nu_\mu$ from a sample of muonic one prong decay events detected in the emulsion target of Fermilab experiment E653. Using the $D_s^+ -> \phi \mu^+ \nu_\mu$ yield measured previously in this experiment, we obtain $B(D_s^+ --> \mu^+ \nu_\mu) / B(D_s^+ --> \phi \mu^+ \nu_\mu) =0.16 \pm 0.06 \pm 0.03$. In addition, we extract the decay constant $f_{D_s}=194 \pm 35 \pm 20 \pm 14 MeV$.

Abstract: From a sample of 2722 ± 78 Λc+ decaying to the pK−π+ final state, we have observed, in the hadroproduction experiment E791 at Fermilab, 143 ± 20 Σc0 and 122 ± 18 Σc++ through their decays to Λc+π±. The mass difference M(Σc0) − M(Λc+) is measured to be (167.38 ± 0.29 ± 0.15) MeV; for M(Σc++) − M(Λc+), we find (167.76 ± 0.29 ± 0.15) MeV. The rate of Λc+ production from decays of the Σc triplet is (22 ± 2 ± 3) % of the total Λc+ production assuming equal rate of production from all three, as measured for Σc0 and Σc++. We do not observe a statistically significant Σc baryon-antibaryon production asymmetry. The xF and pt2 spectra of Λc+ from Σc decays are observed to be similar to those for all Λc+'s produced.

Abstract: We present asymmetries between the production of D+ and D- mesons in Fermilab experiment E791 as a function of xF and pt**2. The data used here consist of 74,000 fully-reconstructed charmed mesons produced by a 500 GeV/c pi- beam on C and Pt foils. The measurements are compared to results of models which predict differences between the production of heavy-quark mesons that have a light quark in common with the beam (leading particles) and those that do not (non-leading particles). While the default models do not agree with our data, we can reach agreement with one of them, PYTHIA, by making a limited number of changes to parameters used.

Abstract: It is well documented that when solving problems experts first search for underlying concepts while students tend to look for equations and previously worked examples. The overwhelming majority of end-of-chapter (EOC) problems in most introductory physics textbooks contain only material and examples discussed in a single chapter, rarely requiring a solver to conduct a general search for underlying concepts. Hypothesizing that complete reliance on EOC problems trains students to rely on a nonexpert approach, we designed and implemented “synthesis” problems, each combining two major concepts that are broadly separated in the teaching timeline. To provide students with guided conceptual scaffolding, we encapsulated each synthesis problem into a sequence with two preceding conceptually based multiple-choice questions. Each question contained one of the major concepts covered in the subsequent synthesis problem. Results from a small-scale interview study and two large-scale written tests showed that the scaffolding encouraged students to search for and apply appropriate fundamental principles in solving synthesis problems, and that repeated training using scaffolded synthesis problems also helped students to make cross-topic transfers.

Abstract: The ratio of the cross section for $p\bar{p}$ interactions producing a $Z$ boson and at least one $b$ quark jet to the inclusive $Z+{\rm jet}$ cross section is measured using $4.2\ {\rm fb}^{-1}$ of $p\bar{p}$ collisions collected with the \dzero\ detector at the Fermilab Tevatron collider at $\sqrt{s}=1.96$ TeV. The $Z\rightarrow\ell^+\ell^-$ candidate events with at least one $b$ jet are discriminated from $Z+$ charm and light jet(s) events by a novel technique that exploits the properties of the tracks associated to the jet. The measured ratio is $0.0193\pm0.0027$ for events having a jet with transverse momentum $\pt > 20 \GeV$ and pseudorapidity $|\eta| \leq 2.5$, which is the most precise to date and is consistent with theoretical predictions.

Abstract: We report results on D0 and D+ production in proton-emulsion interactions at s =38.7 GeV. A fit to the form (1−|xF|)n exp (−bp 2 T ) yields n=6.9 +1.9 −1.8 and b=0.84 +0.10 −0.08 (GeV/c)−2. The total inclusive cross section, is assuming linear A dependence, is measured to be 38±3(stat.) ±13 (sys.) μb for the D0 and 38±9±14 μb for the D+. A comparison of these results with previous measurements indicates that nuclear effects do not strongly influence charm production. The predictions of QCD are in good agreement with our data.
