Abstract

Inclusive gamma-ray experiments were carried out in a e(+)e(-) colliding-beam apparatus with NaI(Tl) arrays as detectors. The inclusive gamma-ray spectra, after cosmic-ray background subtraction, are shown as histograms for the decays of the psi(3095) and psi-prime(3684). The psi spectrum has no significant narrow structure, while the psi-prime spectrum shows at least four peaks. Three major radiative decays of the psi-prime(3684) are found, and their respective branching fractions are computed.

Abstract

We report a measurement of the reaction ..gamma gamma -->..K/sup +/K/sup -/..pi../sup +/..pi../sup -/ in both tagged and untagged events at PEP. The cross section rises with invariant ..gamma gamma.. mass to about 15 nb at 2 GeV and falls slowly at higher masses. We find clear evidence for the processes ..gamma gamma -->..phi..pi../sup +/..pi../sup -/ and ..gamma gamma -->..K/sup asterisk0/(892)K..pi... Upper limits (95% C.L.) of 1.5 and 5.7 nb in the mass range from 1.7 to 3.7 GeV are obtained for phirho/sup 0/ and K/sup asterisk0/K/sup asterisk0/ production, respectively.

Abstract

Two-photon production of ${K}_{S}^{0}{K}^{\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}}{\ensuremath{\pi}}^{\ensuremath{\mp}}$ states has been studied by the TPC/Two-Gamma experiment at the SLAC storage ring PEP. A resonance of mass 1.42 GeV was seen when one of the photons was quite virtual but not when both photons were nearly real. Production of a spin-1 meson, which cannot be made by two real photons, would fit these observations. The ${Q}^{2}$ dependence of the data in the resonance region agrees with this spin assignment and is incompatible with a spin-0 hypothesis. The mass and width of the resonance are similar to those of the $E$ meson, which has been assigned ${J}^{P}={0}^{\ensuremath{-}}$ and ${J}^{P}={1}^{+}$ by different experiments.

Abstract

By observing the reaction ..gamma gamma -->..K-italic/sub s-italic//sup 0/K/sup +-/..pi../sup minus-or-plus/, the TPC/Two-Gamma experiment at the SLAC e-italic/sup +/e/sup -/ storage ring PEP has obtained a 95%-confidence-level limit of GAMMA/sub iota//sub ..-->..//sub ..gamma..//sub ..gamma../B(iota..-->..KK-bar..pi..) ..//sub ..gamma..//sub ..gamma../ limit appears to conflict with previous assignments of an observed rho..gamma.. decay to iota and also with many analyses of eta-eta'-iota mixing. The contrast of this small ..gamma gamma.. width with the large rate for J-italic/psi..--> gamma..iota is evidence that the iota is a glueball with little admixture of q-italicq-bar states.

Abstract

We compare the particle flow in the event plane of three-jet qq-barg (quark-antiquark-gluon) events with the particle flow in radiative annihilation events qq-bar..gamma.. (quark-antiquark-photon) for similar kinematic configurations. In the angular region between quark and antiquark jet, we find a significant decrease in particle density for qq-barg as compared to qq-bar..gamma... This effect is predicted in QCD as a result of destructive interference between soft-gluon radiation from quark, antiquark, and hard gluon.

Abstract

The absolute cross section for the elastic scattering of negative muons from protons was measured over a range of momentum transfers of 450 to 850 MeV/c. The muon beam was formed by decay in flight of Bevatron produced pions and was separated from the pion beam electronically by using four gas-filled threshold \ifmmode \check{C}\else \v{C}\fi{}erenkov counters. A total of 3\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}${10}^{8}$ muons were incident on two large liquid hydrogen targets in tandem and gave a total of 56\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}9 acceptable scattering events, as compared to 48 predicted by the Rosenbluth formula for electromagnetic scattering from protons. A $\ensuremath{\chi}$-square analysis of the scattered events gave agreement at the 75% level for the angular distribution of the data and the theoretical predictions, and gave with 95% confidence ${\ensuremath{\Lambda}}^{\ensuremath{-}1}\ensuremath{\le}0.16$ F, where ${\ensuremath{\Lambda}}^{\ensuremath{-}1}$ is the conventional breakdown parameter. Hence, in this experiment, the behavior of muons scattered from protons at large momentum transfers is indistinguishable from that of electrons.

Abstract

The scattering cross section of high-energy $\ensuremath{\mu}$ mesons in carbon and lead has been measured, using a pure, monoenergetic beam of muons obtained with the Bevatron at the Lawrence Radiation Laboratory. Preparation, purification, and measured properties of the beam are described. The median momentum was 2.00\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.03 Bev/c, the spread in momentum was not more than \ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}3.5%, and the effective contamination due to pions was 4.9\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}${10}^{\ensuremath{-}6}$. During the experiment the total number of muons incident on the apparatus was 2.5\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}${10}^{7}$. Counter hodoscopes recorded the muons scattered from 14.4 g/${\mathrm{cm}}^{2}$ of lead and from 27 g/${\mathrm{cm}}^{2}$ of carbon. Inelastic as well as elastic processes were accepted. Scattered particles were observed at angles up to 12\ifmmode^\circ\else\textdegree\fi{} (momentum transfer \ensuremath{\sim}400 Mev/c). The lead data cover the same range as those cosmic-ray experiments which have appeared to indicate an anomalously large scattering. No anomaly is found; the lead scattering agrees closely with the distribution calculated by Cooper and Rainwater for purely electromagnetic interactions. The carbon data permit a better comparison with theoretical expectations, since one is measuring the single-scattering cross section directly, and one can account for the effects of nuclear structure rather accurately, using electron-scattering data and a detailed theoretical analysis of Drell and Schwartz. The carbon scattering results, based on 300 events in the region 70 Mev/c-400 Mev/c momentum transfer, agree closely with the Drell-Schwartz theory. The upper limits which this result places on a nonelectromagnetic scattering cross section and on a muon form factor are discussed.

Abstract

A measurement of the inelastic scattering of high-energy electrons in carbon has been carried out with the express purpose of obtaining an experimental cross section to compare with a recently-completed measurement of muon scattering. A scaling law which connects the electron result with the (higher-energy) muon result is described. Results for the summed (elastic plus all inelastic) cross section at two values of the muon scattering angle are presented. At the smaller angle (momentum transfer \ensuremath{\sim}200 Mev/c) agreement with the theoretical (Drell-Schwartz) sum rule is good; at the larger one (\ensuremath{\sim}280 Mev/c) it is poorer but within the experimental and theoretical uncertainties. Comparison with the muon results does not alter the previous conclusion: That no muon scattering anomaly is seen.

Abstract

The single scattering of high-energy muons from emulsion nuclei was measured using a monoenergetic beam of muons produced at the Berkeley bevatron. The median momentum of muons was 2.00\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.03 Bev/c with a spread of no more than \ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}3.5%. Nuclear emulsion stacks were exposed to this muon beam behind the targets used for a counter experiment. The results of the counter experiment were reported earlier. The muon tracks recorded in nuclear emulsions were followed by a special fast-scanning technique, and a total of 682 single scattering events were found from 743 meters of track following. For the muon beam accepted in the emulsion scanning, the pion contamination was measured to be 1.3\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.2%. These pions contribute to the integral muon scattering data by about 3% for scattering angles greater than 1\ifmmode^\circ\else\textdegree\fi{}. The observed scattering distribution which extends up to 3\ifmmode^\circ\else\textdegree\fi{} scattering angle, or momentum transfer of about 100 Mev/c, is in good agreement with the electromagnetic theory predictions and complements the counter experiment which covered momentum transfers of 70-400 Mev/c.

Abstract

We measure an inclusive branching fraction of (13.9 +- 2.0/sub -2.2//sup +1.9/)% for the decay tau/sup -/..--> nu../sub tau/..pi../sup -/..pi../sup 0/+nh/sup 0/ (ngreater than or equal to1), where h/sup 0/ is a ..pi../sup 0/ or an eta. The data sample, obtained with the time-projection chamber detector facility at the SLAC e/sup +/e/sup -/ storage ring PEP, corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 72 pb/sup -1/ at 29-GeV center-of-mass energy. The measured branching fraction is somewhat greater than the theoretical prediction and, with errors taken into account, could resolve the present difference between the inclusive and the sum of the exclusive tau/sup +- / branching fractions into one charged prong.
