    In an exposure of the Argonne National Laboratory 12-foot hydrogen bubble chamber to a beam of 12.4-GeV/c protons, we have measured the total and differential cross sections for the inclusive reactions p + p → γ + X, π 0 + X, K 0 + X, and Λ + X, as well as estimates for the inclusive eta and Σ 0 cross sections. We present the average number of π 0 , K 0 , and Λ as a function of the associated charge multiplicity. We observe that the average charge multiplicity in pp collisions is the same whether or not a π 0 , K 0 , or Λ is also produced in the interaction. Invariant cross sections are presented as a function of P/subT/ 2 and x, the Feynman scaling variable. The π 0 differential cross sections are consistent with the relation (dsigma/dP)(π 0 ) = 1 / 2 [(dsigma/dP)(π + ) + (dsigma/dP)(π - )]/2 for all pion momenta P. The differential cross section for Λ production indicates a break in the distribution of vertical-bart - t/sub min/vertical-bar = 1.4 (GeV/c) 2 . The polarization of the Λ's is found to be consistent with zero for all values of x

    The reactions $e^+e^- \\to e^+e^-\\pi^0$ X and $e^+e^- \\to e^+e^-K^0_S$ X are studied using data collected at LEP with the L3 detector at centre-of-mass energies between 189 and 202 GeV. Inclusive differential cross sections are measured as a function of the particle transverse momentum pt and the pseudo-rapidity. For $p_t \\le 1.5$ GeV, the $\\pi^0$ and $K^0_s$ differential cross sections are described by an exponential, typical of soft hadronic processes. For $p_t \\ge 1.5$ GeV, the cross sections show the presence of perturbative QCD processes, described by a power-law. The data are compared to Monte Carlo predictions and to NLO QCD calculations. \\end{document}

    The analogous process to quark pair production in e + e - annihilation is the hard-scattering quark exchange process in γγ interactions. This hard-scattering process is expected to dominate the cross section at high transverse momenta of the produced quarks. Experimentally, one has looked for this process in two-jet as well as inclusive particle production and has found a relatively low PT onset of hard scattering in γγ interactions. This report examines the issue in more detail (high statistics) for charged particle inclusive production and checks if the heavier flavors display a similar behavior in inclusive K 0 production

    The inclusive production of γ's and π 0 's in K - p-interactions at 32 GeV/c is studied. About 30.000 γ's coming from a Mirabelle bubble chamber experiment with a sensitivity of 6.5 ev/μb have been used for the analysis. Inclusive and topological cross sections of γ's are measured. The γ invariant differential distributions and their scaling properties are investigated. The inclusive cross section of π 0 -production is determined and the π 0 invariant differential distributions are evaluated and compared to those of πsup(+-). (orig.)

    In this thesis a detailed analysis of inclusive production of neutral strange particles in K - p interactions at 110 GeV/c is presented. The analysis is concentrated on the Λ 0 hyperon production. About 80% of Λ 0 -s is produced in the channel K - p → Λ 0 KK-bar + anything at 110 GeV/c while at lower energies the inclusive Λ 0 production is dominated by the channel K - p → Λ 0 + pions. Next the results of the measurement of the Λ 0 polarization are presented. These results are compared with those obtained at lower energies as well as with those coming from reactions induced by non-strange projectiles. The most striking feature of the polarization is its dependence on the transverse momentum of Λ 0 , different in different channels and different hemispheres. Finally, our results are compared with predictions of models based on the quark-parton picture. 29 refs., 49 figs., 5 tabs. (author)

    The present work deals with an inclusive and an exclusive K 0 analysis of the p+p data - recorded with the HADES experiment at 3.5 GeV - for the determination of the K 0 production dynamic, of production cross sections and angular distributions in particular in the context of resonances (e.g. Δ(1232) ++ ). The exclusive results, which show the presence of a dominant resonance contribution, were, thereby, implemented in theoretical models allowing the reproduction of the inclusive K 0 kinematics.

    Properties of inclusive production of Δ ++ and Δ 0 isobars are studied using the total statistics (approximately 1.15x10 5 inelastic interactions) of the K - p experiment at 32 GeV/c. It is found that the Δ ++ and Δ 0 inclusive production cross sections are σ(Δ ++ )=1.71+-0.14 mb, σ(Δ 0 )=1.27+-0.25 mb. Some production differential cross sections for those isobars are reconstructed. Angular characteristics of Δ ++ decay are considered. It is shown that the principel part of the Δ ++ - and Δ 0 - isobars is produced peripherally (x ++ and Δ 0 distributions coincide in the main, which indicates that the same mechanism is controlling the isobar production

    Inclusive K0SK0S production in ep collisions at HERA was studied with the ZEUS detector using an integrated luminosity of 0.5 fb-1. Enhancements in the mass spectrum were observed and are attributed to the production of f2(1270)/a02(1320), f'2(1525) and f0(1710). The f0(1710) state was observed with a statistical significance of 5 standard deviations. Masses and widths were obtained using a fit which takes into account theoretical predictions based on SU(3) symmetry arguments.

    Measurements of the inclusive jet cross section with the anti-kT clustering algorithm are presented for two radius parameters, R =0.5 and 0.7. They are based on data from LHC proton-proton collisions at √s =7 TeV corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 5.0 fb-1 collected with the CMS detector in 2011. The ratio of these two measurements is obtained as a function of the rapidity and transverse momentum of the jets. Significant discrepancies are found comparing the data to leading-order simulations and to fixed-order calculations at next-to-leading order, corrected for nonperturbative effects, whereas simulations with next-to-leading-order matrix elements matched to parton showers describe the data best.

  16. Inclusive strange particle production and vector and tensor meson production in $K^{+}p$ interactions at 70 GeV/c

    1982-01-01

    Results on K^{0}, K^{0} Lambda ^{0}, Lambda , K* and rho ^{0} production from an exposure of BEBC filled with hydrogen to a 70 Ge V/c K^{+} beam are presented. Inclusive channel and differential cross sections are presented. Inclusive channel and differential cross sections are presented. Scaling of the structure functions with data at 32 GeV/c is observed in the dominant X-region for each reaction and in some cases over the full X-region. Polarisation and spin density matrix measurements are given where obtainable. In particular a significant polarisation for forward produced Lambda s is observed.

    Data published up to June 1976 on the quasi-two-body reaction K+p --> K0 DELTA++, with DELTA++ -->ppi+, are compiled for laboratory momenta from 0.7 to 2 GeV/c. They include integrated cross-sections, differencial cross-sections, average and differential density matrix elements, as well as coefficients of the Legendre polynomial expensions of the production differential distributions. The data are presented in the form og graphs and computer-produced tables. The method of computation is the same as in a previous report (CERN-HERA-75-1) on K+N cross-sections below2 GeV/c, to which the reader is referred for details on cards formats, notations, etc.

  18. Inclusive production of Ω- and Omega-bar + by K/sub L/0-carbon interactions in the energy range 80--280 GeV/c

    International Nuclear Information System (INIS)

    Hartouni, E.P.; Atiya, M.S.; Holmes, S.D.

    1985-01-01

    We have measured the total cross sections of Ω - and Omega-bar + forward (x/sub F/> or =0) inclusive production in K/sub L/ 0 -carbon interactions in the range E/sub K/ 0 = 80 to 280 GeV to be 3.5 +- 1.4 and 2.4 +- 1.0 μb, respectively. We observe that the x/sub F/ distributions for both of these states are increasing from x/sub F/ = 0 to x/sub F/roughly-equal0.6. The p/sub perpendicular/ 2 distributions are described as an exponential function in p/sub perpendicular/ with an avearage p/sub perpendicular/ 2 of 0.540 GeV 2 /c 2

  19. A study of the ability of the D0 detector to measure the single jet inclusive cross section

    International Nuclear Information System (INIS)

    Astur, R.V.

    1992-01-01

    The D0 experiment began accumulating data at the Fermilab Tevatron in May of 1992. Protons are collided with antiprotons at √s = 1.8 TeV and an expected peak luminosity of 5 x 10 30 cm -2 sec -1 . The D0 detector is an all-purpose detector that will have exceptional jet reconstruction capabilities derived from superior calorimetry and nearly 4π angular coverage. One of the many physics measurements that will be made at D0 is the inclusive jet cross section. Comparison of this cross section with theoretical predictions allows us to test the accuracy of the standard model of Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD). This comparison is usually in the form of a measurement of the differential cross section with respect to the transverse energy of the jet. The extended angular coverage of the D0 detector allows measurements of the differential cross section as a function of jet rapidity as well. Recently completed calculations of the next-to-leading-order contribution to the inclusive cross section result in predictions with reduced theoretical errors. In addition, recent fits to data from deep inelastic scattering and single photon experiments further restrict the quark and gluon structure functions of the proton which are necessary in the theoretical predictions of the cross section. It may be that an experimental measurement of the inclusive cross section would favor some of these fits over others. We have studied extensive computer simulations of both the Tevatron and the D0 detector in order to determine D0's ability to reconstruct the inclusive cross section. We present a discussion of this analysis as presently understood

    We study the processes e{sup +}e{sup -} {yields} K{sup +}K{sup -}{pi}{sup +}{pi}-{gamma}, K{sup +}K{sup -}{pi}{sup 0}{pi}{sup 0}{gamma}, and K{sup +}K{sup -}K{sup +}K{sup -}{gamma}, where the photon is radiated from the initial state. About 84000, 8000, and 4200 fully reconstructed events, respectively, are selected from 454 fb{sup -1} of BABAR data. The invariant mass of the hadronic final state defines the e{sup +}e{sup -} center-of-mass energy, so that the K{sup +}K{sup -}{pi}{sup +}{pi}{sup -}{gamma} data can be compared with direct measurements of the e{sup +}e{sup -} {yields} K{sup +}K{sup -}{pi}{sup +}{pi}{sup -} reaction. No direct measurements exist for the e{sup +}e{sup -} {yields} K{sup +}K{sup -}{pi}{sup 0}{pi}{sup 0} or e{sup +}e{sup -} {yields} K{sup +}K{sup -}K{sup +}K{sup -} reactions, and we present an update of our previous result with doubled statistics. Studying the structure of these events, we find contributions from a number of intermediate states, and extract their cross sections. In particular, we perform a more detailed study of the e{sup +}e{sup -} {yields} {phi}(1020){pi}{pi}{gamma} reaction, and confirm the presence of the Y (2175) resonance in the {phi}(1020)f{sub 0}(980) and K{sup +}K{sup -} f{sub 0}(980) modes. In the charmonium region, we observe the J/{psi} in all three final states and in several intermediate states, as well as the {phi}(2S) in some modes, and measure the corresponding branching fractions.

    A study of inclusive Ψ - production from a high statistics K - p experiment at 4.2 GeV/c has been made. The total Ψ - production cross section is 157 +- 8 μb. Approximately 15% of the Ψ - arise from decay of the Ψ* 0 (1530) resonance. The polarization of the Ψ - is found to be negative and is nearly equal in value to that of the Λ 0 from the inclusive reaction K - + p → Λ 0 + anything. An analysis of the inclusive production of Ψ - has been made in the framework of the triple-Regge formalism. (Auth.)

    With the boson exchange model we calculate the cross section of the inclusive K + -meson production from pp collisions. The calculations reasonably reproduce available experimental data and give the basis for parametrization of the energy dependence of the cross section in a wide range from the reaction threshold up to several hundreds of GeV. 12 refs., 5 figs., 1 tab

    Differential inclusive-jet cross sections have been measured for different jet radii in neutral current deep inelastic ep scattering for boson virtualities Q 2 >125 GeV 2 with the ZEUS detector at HERA using an integrated luminosity of 81.7 pb -1 . Jets were identified in the Breit frame using the k T cluster algorithm in the longitudinally inclusive mode for different values of the jet radius R. Differential cross sections are presented as functions of Q 2 and the jet transverse energy, E T,B jet . The dependence on R of the inclusive-jet cross section has been measured for Q 2 > 125 and 500 GeV 2 and found to be linear with R in the range studied. Next-to-leading-order QCD calculations give a good description of the measurements for 0.5 s (M Z ) has been extracted from the measurements of the inclusive-jet cross-section dσ/dQ 2 with R=1 for Q 2 > 500 GeV 2 : α s (M Z )=0.1207±0.0014(stat.) -0.0028 +0.0030 (exp.) -0.0 023 +0.0022 (th.). The variation of α s with E T,B jet is in good agreement with the running of α s as predicted by QCD. (orig.)

    Measurements of the inclusive cross-sections for K 0 and Λ production in hadronic decays of the Z are presented together with measurements of two-particle correlations within pairs of Λ and K 0. The results are compared with predictions from the hadronization models Jetset, based on string fragmentation, and Herwig, based on cluster decays. The K 0 spectrum is found to be harder than predicted by both models, while the Λ spectrum is softer than predicted. The correlation measurements are all reproduced well by Jetset, while Herwig misses some of the qualitative features and overestimates the size of theΛ bar Λ correlation. Finally, the possibility of Bose-Einstein correlation in the K {/S 0} K {/S 0} system is discussed.

    The first high-statistics cross sections for the reactions γp→K*+Λ and γp→K*+Σ0 were measured using the CLAS detector at photon energies between threshold and 3.9 GeV at the Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility. Differential cross sections are presented over the full range of the center-of-mass angles, and then fitted to Legendre polynomials to extract the total cross section. Results for the K*+Λ final state are compared with two different calculations in an isobar and a Regge model, respectively. Theoretical calculations significantly underestimate the K*+Λ total cross sections between 2.1 and 2.6 GeV, but are in better agreement with present data at higher photon energies.

    Differential inclusive-jet cross sections have been measured for different jet radii in neutral current deep inelastic ep scattering for boson virtualities Q{sup 2}>125 GeV{sup 2} with the ZEUS detector at HERA using an integrated luminosity of 81.7 pb{sup -1}. Jets were identified in the Breit frame using the k{sub T} cluster algorithm in the longitudinally inclusive mode for different values of the jet radius R. Differential cross sections are presented as functions of Q{sup 2} and the jet transverse energy, E{sub T,B}{sup jet}. The dependence on R of the inclusive-jet cross section has been measured for Q{sup 2} > 125 and 500 GeV{sup 2} and found to be linear with R in the range studied. Next-to-leading-order QCD calculations give a good description of the measurements for 0.5<=R<=1. A value of {alpha}{sub s}(M{sub Z}) has been extracted from the measurements of the inclusive-jet cross-section d{sigma}/dQ{sup 2} with R=1 for Q{sup 2} > 500 GeV{sup 2}: {alpha}{sub s}(M{sub Z})=0.1207{+-}0.0014(stat.){sub -0.0028}{sup +0.0030}(exp.){sub -0.0023}{sup +0.0022}(th.). The variation of {alpha}{sub s} with E{sub T,B}{sup jet} is in good agreement with the running of {alpha}{sub s} as predicted by QCD. (orig.)

    2010-03-01

    For the first time, differential inclusive-jet cross sections have been measured in neutral current deep inelastic ep scattering using the anti-k T and SIScone algorithms. The measurements were made for boson virtualities Q 2 > 125 GeV 2 with the ZEUS detector at HERA using an integrated luminosity of 82 pb -1 and the jets were identified in the Breit frame. The performance and suitability of the jet algorithms for their use in hadron-like reactions were investigated by comparing the measurements to those performed with the k T algorithm. Next-to-leading-order QCD calculations give a good description of the measurements. Measurements of the ratios of cross sections using different jet algorithms are also presented; the measured ratios are well described by calculations including up to O(α s 3 ) terms. Values of α s (M Z ) were extracted from the data; the results are compatible with and have similar precision to the value extracted from the k T analysis. (orig.)

    The authors report on a measurement of the inclusive jet production cross section in p{bar p} collisions at {radical}s = 1.96 TeV using data collected with the upgraded Collider Detector at Fermilab in Run II (CDF II) corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 385 pb{sup -1}. Jets are reconstructed using the k{sub T} algorithm. The measurement is carried out for jets with rapidity 0.1 < |y{sup jet}| < 0.7 and transverse momentum in the range 54 < p{sub T}{sup jet} < 700 GeV/c. The measured cross section is in good agreement with next-to-leading order perturbative QCD predictions after the necessary non-perturbative parton-to-hadron corrections are included.

    Minijet production in jet inclusive cross sections at hadron colliders, with large rapidity intervals between the tagged jets, is evaluated by using the BFKL pomeron. We describe the jet inclusive cross section for an arbitrary number of tagged jets, and show that it behaves like a system of coupled pomerons

    The exclusive reactions {gamma}p {yields} {bar K}{sup 0} K{sup +} n and {gamma}p {yields} {bar K}{sup 0} K{sup 0} p have been studied in the photon energy range 1.6--3.8 GeV, searching for evidence of the exotic baryon {Theta}{sup +}(1540) in the decays {Theta}{sup +} {yields} nK{sup +} and {Theta}{sup +} {yields} pK{sup 0}. Data were collected with the CLAS detector at the Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility. The integrated luminosity was about 70 pb{sup -1}. The reactions have been isolated by detecting the K{sup +} and proton directly, the neutral kaon via its decay to K{sub S} {yields} {pi}{sup +}{pi}{sup -} and the neutron or neutral kaon via the missing mass technique. The mass and width of known hyperons such as {Sigma}{sup +}, {Sigma}{sup -} and {Lambda}(1116) were used as a check of the mass determination accuracy and experimental resolution. Approximately 100,000 {Lambda}*(1520)'s and 150,000 {phi}'s were observed in the {bar K}{sup 0} K{sup +} n and {bar K}{sup 0} K{sup 0} p final state respectively. No evidence for the {Theta}{sup +} pentaquark was found in the nK{sup +} or pK{sub S} invariant mass spectra. Upper limits were set on the production cross section of the reaction {gamma}p {yields} {Theta}{sup +} {bar K}{sup 0} as functions of center-of-mass angle, nK{sup +} and pK{sub S} masses. Combining the results of the two reactions, the 95% C.L. upper limit on the total cross section for a resonance peaked at 1540 MeV was found to be 0.7 nb. Within most of the available theoretical models, this corresponds to an upper limit on the {Theta}{sup +} width, {Gamma}{sub {Theta}{sup +}}, ranging between 0.01 and 7 MeV.

    In the present work, new, differential cross-section values are presented for the nat K(p, p 0 ) reaction in the energy range E lab = 3000-5000 keV (with an energy step of 25 keV) and for detector angles between 140 o and 170 o (with an angular step of 10 o ). A qualitative discussion of the observed cross-section variations through the influence of strong, closely spaced resonances in the p + 39 K system is also presented. Information has also been extracted concerning the 39 K(p,α 0 ) reaction for E lab = 4000-5000 keV in the same angular range. As a result, more than ∼500 data points will soon be available to the scientific community through IBANDL (Ion Beam Analysis Nuclear Data Library - (http://www-nds.iaea.org/ibandl/)) and could thus be incorporated in widely used IBA algorithms (e.g. SIMNRA, WINDF, etc.) for potassium depth profiling at relatively high proton beam energies.

    For the first time, differential inclusive-jet cross sections have been measured in neutral current deep inelastic ep scattering using the anti-k{sub T} and SIScone algorithms. The measurements were made for boson virtualities Q{sup 2} > 125 GeV{sup 2} with the ZEUS detector at HERA using an integrated luminosity of 82 pb{sup -1} and the jets were identified in the Breit frame. The performance and suitability of the jet algorithms for their use in hadron-like reactions were investigated by comparing the measurements to those performed with the k{sub T} algorithm. Next-to-leading-order QCD calculations give a good description of the measurements. Measurements of the ratios of cross sections using different jet algorithms are also presented; the measured ratios are well described by calculations including up to O({alpha}{sub s}{sup 3}) terms. Values of {alpha}{sub s}(M{sub Z}) were extracted from the data; the results are compatible with and have similar precision to the value extracted from the k{sub T} analysis. (orig.)

    SuperScaling model (SuSA) predictions to neutrino-induced charged-current π{sup +} production in the Δ-resonance region are explored under MiniBooNE experimental conditions. The SuSA charged-current π{sup +} results are in good agreement with data on neutrino flux-averaged double-differential cross sections. The SuSA model for quasielastic scattering and its extension to the pion production region are used for predictions of charged-current inclusive neutrino-nucleus cross sections. Results are also compared with the T2K experimental data for inclusive scattering.

    2001-01-01

    The effects of the initial b quark bound state for the semi-inclusive decays B->K(K * )X are studied using light cone expansion and heavy quark effective theory methods. We find that the initial bound state effects on the branching ratios and CP asymmetries are small. In the light cone expansion approach, the CP-averaged branching ratios are increased by about 2% with respect to the free b-quark decay. For {bar B} 0 ->K - (K *- )X, the CP-averaged branching ratios are sensitive to the phase γ and the CP asymmetry can be as large as 7% (14%), whereas for B - ->{bar K} 0 ({bar K} *0 )X the CP-averaged branching ratios are not sensitive to γ and the CP asymmetries are small ( -4 [(0.25 - 2.0)x10 -4 ] for {bar B} 0 ->K - (K *- )X and (0.77 - 0.84)x10 -4 [(0.67 - 0.74)x10 -4 ] for B - ->{bar K} 0 ({bar K} *0 )X, depending on the value of the CP violating phase γ. In the heavy quark effective theory approach, we find that the branching ratios are decreased by about 10% and the CP asymmetries are not affected. These predictions can be tested in the near future

    Differential cross sections and hyperon polarizations have been measured for K 0 n, π 0 Λ, and π 0 Σ 0 production in K - p interactions at eight K - momenta between 514 and 750 MeV/c. The experiment detected the multiphoton final states with the Crystal Ball spectrometer using a K - beam from the BNL Alternating Gradient Synchrotron. The results provide significantly greater precision than the existing data, allowing a detailed reexamination of the excited hyperon states in our energy range.

    Preliminary measurements of the differential cross sections of the γn → K*(892) 0 Λ and γn → K + Σ*(1385) - reactions are shown using data from the Jefferson Lab Hall B CLAS g13 experiment. No experimental cross section data have yet been published on the γn → K*(892) 0 Λ reaction, and the only published cross section data on the γn → K + Σ*(1385) - reaction are at forward angles, where t-channel K + and K* + exchanges are predicted to dominate. These data can be used to contribute to the search for the "missing" N* resonances, some of which are predicted to have non-negligible couplings to the excited strangeness channels. (author)

    Reaction K - p→π 0 π 0 Σ 0 was measured with the Crystal Ball multiphoton spectrometer at eight K - momenta from 514 to 750 MeV/c. Dynamics and the energy dependence of the reaction are shown by Dalitz plots, invariant mass spectra, production angular distributions, and total cross sections. The dipion invariant-mass spectra for K - p→π 0 π 0 Σ 0 show an enhancement in the low mass region; the opposite is the case for the K - p→π 0 π 0 Λ and π - p→π 0 π 0 n reactions. There is no direct evidence for a f 0 (600)-meson contribution to π 0 π 0 production. Everywhere σ t (K - p→π 0 π 0 Σ 0 ) t (K - p→π 0 π 0 Λ)

    Inclusive jet cross sections are measured in photoproduction at HERA using the H1 detector. The data sample of e+ p -> e+ + jet + X events in the kinematic range of photon virtualities Q^2 < 1 GeV^2 and photon-proton centre-of-mass energies 95 < W_gammap < 285 GeV represents an integrated luminosity of 24.1 pb^-1. Jets are defined using the inclusive k_T algorithm. Single- and multi-differential cross sections are measured as functions of jet transverse energy E_T^jet and pseudorapidity \\eta^jet in the domain 5 < E_T^jet < 75 GeV and -1 < \\eta^jet < 2.5. The cross sections are found to be in good agreement with next-to-leading order perturbative QCD calculations corrected for fragmentation and underlying event effects. The cross section differential in E_T^jet, which varies by six orders of magnitude over the measured range, is compared with similar distributions from p pbar colliders at equal and higher energies.

    We describe searches for B{sup 0} meson decays to the charmless final states {pi}{sup 0}K{sub S}{sup 0}K{sub S}{sup 0}, {eta}K{sub S}{sup 0}K{sub S}{sup 0}, and {eta}{prime}K{sub S}{sup 0}K{sub S}{sup 0}. The data sample corresponds to 467 x 10{sup 6} B{bar B} pairs produced in e{sup +}e{sup -} annihilation and collected with the BABAR detector at the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory. We find no significant signals and determine the 90% confidence level upper limits on the branching fractions, in units of 10{sup -7}, {Beta}(B{sup 0} {yields} {pi}{sup 0}K{sub S}{sup 0}K{sub S}{sup 0}) < 12, {Beta}(B{sup 0} {yields} {eta}K{sub S}{sup 0}K{sub S}{sup 0}) < 10, and {Beta}(B{sup 0} {yields} {eta}{prime}K{sub S}{sup 0}K{sub S}{sup 0}) < 20.

    A Dalitz plot analysis of the D 0 hadronic decays D 0K 0 K - π + , D 0 → (bar K) 0 K + π - and D 0 → (bar K) 0 K + K - is presented. This analysis is based on a data sample of 22 fb -1 collected with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy B Factory at SLAC running on or near the Υ(4S) resonance. The events are selected from continuum e + e - annihilations using the decay D* + → D 0 π + . Preliminary measurements of the branching fractions of the above hadronic decays are obtained. Preliminary estimates of fractions and phases for resonant and nonresonant contributions to the Dalitz plot are also presented

    The authors report on measurements of the inclusive jet production cross section as a function of the jet transverse momentum in p{bar p} collisions at {radical}s = 1.96 TeV, using the k{sub T} algorithm and a data sample corresponding to 1.0 fb{sup -1} collected with the Collider Detector at Fermilab in Run II. The measurements are carried out in five different jet rapidity regions with |y{sup jet}| < 2.1 and transverse momentum in the range 54 < p{sub T}{sup jet} < 700 GeV/c. Next-to-leading order perturbative QCD predictions are in good agreement with the measured cross sections.

    An analysis is presented of inclusive \\pi^0 production in Z^0 decays measured with the DELPHI detector. At low energies, \\pi^0 decays are reconstructed by \\linebreak using pairs of converted photons and combinations of converted photons and photons reconstructed in the barrel electromagnetic calorimeter (HPC). At high energies (up to x_p = 2 \\cdot p_{\\pi}/\\sqrt{s} = 0.75) the excellent granularity of the HPC is exploited to search for two-photon substructures in single showers. The inclusive differential cross section is measured as a function of energy for {q\\overline q} and {b \\bar b} events. The number of \\pi^0's per hadronic Z^0 event is N(\\pi^0)/ Z_{had}^0 = 9.2 \\pm 0.2 \\mbox{(stat)} \\pm 1.0 \\mbox{(syst)} and for {b \\bar b}~events the number of \\pi^0's is {\\mathrm N(\\pi^0)/ b \\overline b} = 10.1 \\pm 0.4 \\mbox{(stat)} \\pm 1.1 \\mbox{(syst)} . The ratio of the number of \\pi^0's in b \\overline b events to hadronic Z^0 events is less affected by the systematic errors and is found to be 1.09 \\pm 0.05 \\pm 0.01....

    The analysis of the transverse momentum spectra in the inclusive reactions K + p→K 0 +X at 5, 8.2, 16 and 32GeV/c and K + p→π - +X at 8.2, 16 and 32GeV/c in terms of a Bose-Einstein distribution reveals a strong correlation between the values of the temperature and the Feynman variable x. The variation of the temperature versus the incident momentum is also discussed [fr

    The short-distance contribution of the double penguin box diagram to the K 0 - anti K 0 mixing is investigated. Compared with previous work of other authors, the present paper takes into account the momentum dependence of the box loop, both the non-local part of the penguin and the previously considered local part and the crossed diagrams, which make a class of double penguin diagrams complete. With such new ingredients, is is concluded that the short-distance part of the double penguin is physically irrelevant. After eliminating this particular mechanism for the K 0 - anti K 0 mixing, other potentially relevant mechanisms are pointed out

    We investigate the short-distance contribution of the double penguin box diagram to the K 0 -anti K 0 mixing. Compared with previous work of other authors, the present paper takes into account (i) the momentum dependence of the box loop, (ii) both the non-local part of the penguin and the previously considered local part and (iii) the crossed diagrams, which make a class of double penguin diagrams complete. With such new ingredients, we arrive at the conclusion that the SD part of the double penguin is physically irrelevant. After eliminating this particular mechanism for the K 0 -anti K 0 mixing, we point out other potentially relevant mechanisms. (orig.)

    In the present work, new, differential cross-section values are presented for the {sup nat}K(p, p{sub 0}) reaction in the energy range E{sub lab} = 3000-5000 keV (with an energy step of 25 keV) and for detector angles between 140{sup o} and 170{sup o} (with an angular step of 10{sup o}). A qualitative discussion of the observed cross-section variations through the influence of strong, closely spaced resonances in the p + {sup 39}K system is also presented. Information has also been extracted concerning the {sup 39}K(p,{alpha}{sub 0}) reaction for E{sub lab} = 4000-5000 keV in the same angular range. As a result, more than {approx}500 data points will soon be available to the scientific community through IBANDL (Ion Beam Analysis Nuclear Data Library - (http://www-nds.iaea.org/ibandl/)) and could thus be incorporated in widely used IBA algorithms (e.g. SIMNRA, WINDF, etc.) for potassium depth profiling at relatively high proton beam energies.

    The CPLEAR set-up (modified) has been used to determine the K/sub L/- K/sub S/ mass difference by a method where neutral-kaon strangeness oscillations are monitored through kaon strong interactions, rather than semileptonic decays, thus requiring no assumptions on CPT invariance for the decay amplitudes. The result, Delta m= (0.5343+or-0.0063/sub stat/+or-0.0025/sub syst/)*10/sup 10/ h(cross) /s, provides a valuable input for CPT tests. (22 refs).

    This thesis describes a Dalitz plot analysis of B{sup 0} {yields} K{sup +}{pi}{sup -}{pi}{sup 0} decays. The data sample comprises 213 million {Upsilon}(4S) {yields} B{bar B} decays collected with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy B Factory at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center in California (SLAC). Preliminary results are presented for measurements of the inclusive branching fraction, quasi-two-body fractions and CP-violating charge asymmetries for intermediate states including K*(892){sup +}{pi}{sup -} and {rho}(770){sup -}K{sup +}. Observations of B{sup 0} decays to the K{pi} S-wave intermediate states, K*{sub 0}(1430){sup +}{pi}{sup -} and K*{sub 0}(1430){sup 0}{pi}{sup 0}, are reported. Evidence of the decay B{sup 0} {yields} K*(892){sup 0}{pi}{sup 0} is seen. We set upper limits at 90% confidence level on branching fractions of the nonresonant and other less significant intermediate states.

    The authors present the first search for the decay B{sup 0} {yields} K{sub S}{sup 0} K{sub S}{sup 0} K{sub L}{sup 0} using a data sample of 232 million B{bar B} pairs. They find no statistically significant evidence for the non-resonant component of this decay. Our central value for the branching fraction, assuming the tru Dalitz distribution is uniform and excluding the {phi} resonance, is {Beta}(B{sup 0} {yields} K{sub S}{sup 0} K{sub S}{sup 0} K{sub L}{sup 0}) = (2.4{sub -2.5}{sup +2.7} {+-} 0.6) x 10{sup -6} where the errors are statistical and systematic, respectively. They set a single-side Bayesian upper limit of {Beta}(B{sup 0} {yields} K{sub S}{sup 0} K{sub S}{sup 0} K{sub L}{sup 0}) < 6.4 x 10{sup -6} at 90% confidence level using a uniform prior probability for physical values. Assuming the worst-case true Dalitz distribution, where the signal is entirely in the region of lowest efficiency, the 90% confidence level upper limit is {Beta}(B{sup 0} {yields} K{sub S}{sup 0} K{sub S}{sup 0} K{sub L}{sup 0}) < 14 x 10{sup -6}.

  19. Molecular effects in carbon K-shell Auger-electron production by 0.6-2.0 MeV protons and extraction of an atomic cross section

    Carbon K-shell Auger-electron production cross sections are reported for 0.6-2.0 MeV protons incident on CH 4 (methane), C 2 H 2 (acetylene), C 2 H 4 (ethylene), C 2 H 6 (ethane), n-C 4 H 10 (normal butane), i-C 4 H 10 (isobutane), C 6 H 6 (benzene), CO (carbon monoxide), and CO 2 (carbon dioxide). A constant-energy mode 45 0 parallel-plate electrostatic analyzer was used for detection of Auger electrons. The carbon KLL Auger-electron cross sections for all molecules were found to be lower than that found for CH 4 by 9-23%. All carbon KLL Auger-electron data could be brought into agreement when corrected for the chemical shift of the carbon K-shell binding energy in molecules and for intramolecular scattering. KLL Auger-electron production cross sections are compared to first Born and ECPSSR theories and show good agreement with both after the chemical shift of the carbon K-shell binding energy in molecules and the effects of intramolecular scattering are considered.

    A measurement of the double-differential inclusive jet cross section as a function of jet transverse momentum $p_{\\mathrm{T}}$ and absolute jet rapidity $|y|$ is presented. The analysis is based on proton-proton collisions collected by the CMS experiment at the LHC at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV. The data samples correspond to integrated luminosities of 71 and 44 pb$^{-1}$ for $|y|< $ 3 and 3.2 $ <|y|< $ 4.7 , respectively. Jets are reconstructed with the anti-$k_{\\mathrm{t}}$ clustering algorithm for two jet sizes, $R$, of 0.7 and 0.4, in a phase space region covering jet $p_{\\mathrm{T}}$ up to 2 TeV and jet rapidity up to $|y|$ = 4.7. Predictions of perturbative quantum chromodynamics at next-to-leading order precision, complemented with electroweak and nonperturbative corrections, are used to compute the absolute scale and the shape of the inclusive jet cross section. The cross section difference in $R$, when going to a smaller jet size of 0.4, is best described by Monte Carl...

    The branching fraction for D0 -> K- π+ is measured with the statistics collected by ALEPH from 1991 to 1994. The method is based on the comparison between the rate for the reconstructed D*+ -> D0π+, D0 -> K-π+ decay chain and the rate for inclusive soft pion production at low transverse momentum with respect to the nearest jet. The result is B(D0 -> K- π+) = (3.90 +/- 0.09 +/- 0.12)%

    The authors present a search for the decay of a B{sup 0} or {bar B}{sup 0} meson to a {bar K}*{sup 0} K{sup 0} or K*{sup 0} {bar K}{sup 0} final state, using a sample of approximately 232 million B{bar B} events collected with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II asymmetric energy e{sup +}e{sup -} collider at SLAC. The measured branching fraction is {Beta}(B{sup 0} {yields} {bar K}*{sup 0} K{sup 0}) + {Beta}(B{sup 0} {yields} K*{sup 0} {bar K}{sup 0}) = (0.2{sub -0.8, -0.3}{sup +0.9, +0.1}) x 10{sup -6}. They obtain the following upper limit for the branching fraction at 90% confidence level: {Beta}(B{sup 0} {yields} {bar K}*{sup 0} K{sup 0}) + {Beta}(B{sup 0} {yields} K*{sup 0} {bar K}{sup 0}) < 1.9 x 10{sup -6}. They use our result to constrain the Standard Model prediction for the deviation of the CP asymmetry in B{sup 0} {yields} {phi}K{sup 0} from sin 2{beta}.

    2003-01-01

    The results of a search for K - p→π 0 π 0 π 0 Λ (where the 3π 0 's are not from η-meson decay) are presented. The data were obtained with the Crystal Ball spectrometer at eight beam momenta from 514 to 750 MeV/c. For the six beam momenta below p K - =714 MeV/c, no signal was found; the 90% C.L. upper limit obtained for the K - p→3π 0 Λ total cross section σ t varies between 2 and 7 μb. This small upper limit is indicative that spontaneous π 0 emission is insignificant, since the K - p→π 0 π 0 π 0 Λ threshold is at p K - =397 MeV/c. A signal was observed only at p K - =750 MeV/c, with σ t =25±7 μb. These results can be explained only if triple π 0 production goes predominantly by hyperon resonance deexcitation, K - p→Σ * →π 0 Λ * . There are several candidates for the Σ * but only one for the Λ*, namely, the Λ(1520)(3/2) - , as the threshold for K - p→π 0 Λ(1520) is at p K - =704 MeV/c

    In this thesis we present a study of the production of D0 meson in the low transverse momentum region. In particular the inclusive differential production cross section of the D0 meson (in the two-body decay channel D0K-π+) is obtained extending the published CDF II measurement to pT as low as 1.5 GeV/c. This study is performed at the Tevatron Collider at Fermilab with the CDF II detector.

    Properties of Σ +- (1385) inclusively produced in 4.2 GeV/c K - p interactions are studied. Inclusive cross sections are presented together with differential cross sections as functions of x and psub(t) 2 for both Σ + (1385) and Σ - (1385). The complete density matrix for Σ + (1385) production at small momentum transfer is studied as a function of t and of recoil mass MM 2 . Substantial agreement with the predictions of the additive quark model is found. The Σ + (1385) production in the target fragmentation region is studied in the framework of the triple-Regge model.

    Results on the investigation of inclusive and semi-inclusive distributions of Λ and K 0 particles, produced in π - p interactions at 4.9, 7.5 and 40 GeV/c are presen--ted. It is shown that the inclusive cross section for production of Ksup(0) mesons increases with the energy mainly in the central region, while the inclusive production of Λ hyperons increases in the fragmentation region of the target proton. The normalized structure fucntion PHIsub(x) for K 0 mesons does not achieve the scaling in the considered energy range, while the function PHIsub(x) for Λ hyperons has the scaling behaviour in a wide range of x, -0.5 < x (<=) 0.1 starting from 4.9 GeV/c

    The results of the study of π + n → K + Σ 0 and π + n → K + Λ reactions at 10.3 GeB/c are presented. The measurements were carried out at missing mass spectrometer HYPERON at IHEP accelerator. The differential cross sections in 0 ≤ t-t min 2 momentum transfer range are measured. The integral cross sections in the studied t-interval are (11.8±1.1)μb and (21.7±2.2)μb for reactions π + n → K + Σ 0 and π + n → K + Λ, respectively. The obtained results were compared with the predictions of quasi-eikonal model and with other experimental data. The ratio A eff (t) of differential cross sections for π + A → K + Y+A' reactions on carbon and deuterium nuclei are measured. The A cff (t) tend to grow with increasing t in agreement with the predictions of QCD-based model

  8. Inclusive J / $\\psi$ Production at D0

    1995-04-01

    We present results on inclusive $J/\\psi$ and b-quark production in $p\\bar{p}$ collisions at $\\sqrt{s}$ = 1.8 TeV. The results are based on data collected at the D0 experiment during the 1992-1993 FermiLab collider run. There is excellent agreement between the differential $J/\\psi$ cross section measured at D0 and that measured at the CDF detector. A measurement of the fraction of $J/\\psi$ events due to b-quark decays is presented and we extract from this a measurement of the integrated b-quark cross section. The radiative decays of $_{Xc}$ charmonium states into the $J/\\psi$ is discussed and we present results on the fraction of $J/\\psi$ mesons that are due to $_{Xc}$ decays. We also observe that a fraction of promptly produced $J/\\psi$ mesons is larger than the measured fraction of $J/\\psi$ due to $_{Xc}$ decays and is not accounted for by existing charmonium. production models.

  9. Analysis of the rare decay B0K*0e+e- at LHCb

    2012-01-01

    The high bb-bar cross section produced by the LHC offers an excellent opportunity for the study of flavour changing neutral current B decays, where the effect of new physics can be probed. This thesis presents an analysis of the rare decay B 0K *0 e + e - , which can be used to measure the polarisation of the photon in the b → sγ transition. When the dilepton mass is low, the e + e - pair comes predominantly from a virtual photon, and the polarisation can be accessed via an angular analysis. It is predicted to be predominantly left handed in the Standard Model, and therefore an enhanced right handed amplitude would be a sign of new physics. A first step is to measure the branching fraction in the dilepton mass range, 30 MeV/c 2 to 1 GeV. This decay has not yet been observed in this region, due to its small branching ratio. The analysis involves electrons with low transverse momentum, and is thus experimentally complex in the hadronic environment at the LHC. The branching ratio is measured relative to that of B 0 → J/ψ(e + e - )K *0 , which eliminates both certain experimental effects, and the need to determine absolute efficiencies. The result is obtained with an integrated luminosity of 1 fb -1 of pp collisions, collected by LHCb during 2011 and is found to be (within the [30-1000 MeV/C 2 ] mass range): Br(B 0K *0 e + e - ) = [3.19+0.75-0.68(stat) ± 0.21(syst) ± 0.15(PDG)]*10 -7 when using the PDG value for the B 0 → J/ψ(e + e - )K *0 branching ratio. The last part of the thesis presents Monte Carlo studies, showing that with the inclusion of the 2012 data sample, the expected sensitivity on the fraction of right handed polarisation is approximately 0.1, which is comparable with the world average obtained with different methods.

    Bulk Zr 0.25 Hf 075 NiSn half-Heusler (HH) nanocomposites containing various mole fractions of full-Heusler (FH) inclusions were prepared by solid state reaction of pre-synthesized HH alloy with elemental Ni at 1073 K. The microstructures of spark plasma sintered specimens of the HH/FH nanocomposites were investigated using transmission electron microscopy and their thermoelectric properties were measured from 300 K to 775 K. The formation of coherent FH inclusions into the HH matrix arises from solid-state Ni diffusion into vacant sites of the HH structure. HH(1-y)/FH(y) composites with mole fraction of FH inclusions below the percolation threshold, y∼0.2, show increased electrical conductivity, reduced Seebeck coefficient and increased total thermal conductivity arising from gradual increase in the carrier concentration for composites. A drastic reduction (∼55%) in κ l was observed for the composite with y=0.6 and is attributed to enhanced phonon scattering due to mass fluctuations between FH and HH, and high density of HH/FH interfaces. - Graphical abstract: Large reduction in the lattice thermal conductivity of bulk nanostructured half-Heusler/full-Heusler (Zr 0.25 Hf 075 NiSn/ Zr 0.25 Hf 075 Ni 2 Sn) composites, obtained by solid-state diffusion at 1073 K of elemental Ni into vacant sites of the half-Heusler structure, arising from the formation of regions of spinodally decomposed HH and FH phases with a spatial composition modulation of ∼2 nm. Highlights: → Bulk composites from solid state transformation of half-Heusler matrix through Ni diffusion. → Formation of coherent phase boundaries between half-Heusler matrix and full-Heusler inclusion. → Alteration of thermal and electronic transports with increasing full-Heusler inclusion. → Enhanced phonon scattering at half-Heusler/ full-Heusler phase boundaries.

    Spectra of $K^0_S$ mesons and $\\Lambda$ hyperons were measured in p+C interactions at 31 GeV/c with the large acceptance NA61/SHINE spectrometer at the CERN SPS. The data were collected with an isotropic graphite target with a thickness of 4% of a nuclear interaction length. Interaction cross sections, charged pion spectra, and charged kaon spectra were previously measured using the same data set. Results on $K^0_S$ and $\\Lambda$ production in p+C interactions serve as reference for the understanding of the enhancement of strangeness production in nucleus-nucleus collisions. Moreover, they provide important input for the improvement of neutrino flux predictions for the T2K long baseline neutrino oscillation experiment in Japan. Inclusive production cross sections for $K^0_S$ and $\\Lambda$ are presented as a function of laboratory momentum in intervals of the laboratory polar angle covering the range from 0 up to 240 mrad. The results are compared with predictions of several hadron production models. The $K^0_...

    Reaction K - p→π 0 π 0 Λ was measured at eight incident K - momenta between 514 and 750 MeV/c using the Crystal Ball multiphoton spectrometer. The reaction dynamics are displayed in total cross sections, Dalitz plots, invariant-mass spectra, production angular distributions, and the Λ polarization. The π 0 π 0 Λ production is dominated by the π 0 Σ 0 (1385) intermediate state; no trace of other light Σ * states is observed, and the role of the f 0 (600) meson appears to be insignificant. A striking similarity is seen between K - p→π 0 π 0 Λ and π - p→π 0 π 0 n; this can be understood as a consequence of dynamical flavor symmetry

    The new stage of the Mainz Microtron, MAMI, at the Institute for Nuclear Physics of the Johannes Gutenberg-University, operational since 2007, allows open strangeness experiments to be performed. Covering the lack of electroproduction data at very low Q 2 , p(e,K + )Λ and p(e,K + )Σ 0 , reactions have been studied at Q 2 =0.036 (GeV/c) 2 and Q 2 =0.05(GeV/c) 2 in a large angular range. Cross-section at W=1.75 GeV are given in angular bins and compared with the predictions of Saclay-Lyon and Kaon Maid isobaric models. We conclude that the original Kaon-Maid model, which has large longitudinal couplings of the photon to nucleon resonances, is unphysical. Extensive studies for the suitability of silicon photomultipliers as read out devices for a scintillating fiber tracking detector, with potential applications in both positive and negative arms of the spectrometer, are presented as well.

    The branching fraction for D0 -> K- pi+ is measured with the statistics collected by ALEPH from 1991 to 1994. The method is based on the comparison between the rate for the reconstructed D*+ -> D0 pi+, D0 -> K- pi+ decay chain and the rate for inclusive soft pion production at low transverse momentum with respect to the nearest jet. The result found is B(D0 -> K- pi+) = (3.90 +- 0.09 +- 0.12)%

    Helicity density matrix elements for inclusive K*(892)^0 mesons from hadronic Z^0 decays have been measured over the full range of K^*0 momentum using data taken with the OPAL experiment at LEP. A preference for occupation of the helicity zero state is observed at all scaled momentum x_p values above 0.3, with the matrix element rho_00 rising to 0.66 +/- 0.11 for x_p > 0.7. The values of the real part of the off-diagonal element rho_1-1 are negative at large x_p, with a weighted average value of -0.09 +/- 0.03 for x_p > 0.3, in agreement with new theoretical predictions based on Standard Model parameters and coherent fragmentation of the qq(bar) system from the Z^0 decay. All other helicity density matrix elements measured are consistent with zero over the entire x_p range. The K^*0 fragmentation function has also been measured and the total rate determined to be 0.74 +/- 0.02 +/- 0.02 K*(892)^0 mesons per hadronic Z^0 decay.

    Within a systematic exploration of the K - p interaction for 7 incident momenta from 1.93 to 2.52GeV/c, the Ψ - K 0 π + and Ψ - K + π 0 from a sample of about 1000 bubble chamber events are studied. At first, the production cross section, mass and width Ψ* 0- (1530) are evaluated; then a partial wave analysis of the K - p→Ψ* 0 K 0 reaction is developed by a maximum likelihood method, through a formation using the transversity amplitudes to calculate the angular distribution of the cascade decay Ψ*→Ψ→Λ from Ψ* polarization. This analysis gives an evidence for the formation of a resonant state on the DD5 wave, with a spin parity 5/2 - , a mass of 2290MeV, a width of 130MeV and a branching ratio √xx' approximately equal to +-0.09 [fr

  17. Inclusive diffractive cross sections in deep inelastic ep scattering at HERA

    Diffractive deep-inelastic scattering events in ep collisions at HERA are the subject of this thesis. The cross sections for inclusive diffraction, ep → eXp, measured by the H1 and ZEUS Collaborations were combined, providing a model-independent check of the data consistency and a cross calibration between the two experiments, and resulting in single data sets with improved accuracy and precision. Two sets of combined results were obtained. The cross sections measured using the proton-spectrometer data were combined, both in the range of t, the squared four-momentum transfer at the proton vertex, common to the two experiments (0.09 2 ) and in the extended t-range vertical stroke t vertical stroke 2 . The resulting cross sections cover the region 2.5≤ Q 2 ≤200 GeV 2 in photon virtualities, 0.0003≤x P ≤0.09 in the proton fractional momentum losses and 0.0018≤ β ≤0.816 in β=x/x P , where x is the Bjorken scaling variable. The cross sections obtained from data with the large rapidity gap signature were also combined in the kinematic range 2.5≤ Q 2 ≤1600 GeV 2 , 0.0003≤x P ≤0.03 and 0.0017≤ β ≤0.8, for masses of the hadronic final state M X >4 GeV. The inclusive diffractive reduced cross section σ r D(3) was measured with data collected by the ZEUS detector, at two different centre-of-mass energies, 318 and 225 GeV. The diffractive data were selected with the large rapidity gap method in the kinematic region 20 2 2 , 0.05 P or similar 0.55), the inelasticity of the interaction.

    The reactions K/sup 0/sup(L)p..-->..K/sup 0/sub(S)p, ..pi../sup +/..lambda.., ..pi../sup +/..sigma../sup 0/ have been measured for center-of-mass energies from 1540 to 1610 MeV. Channel cross sections and coefficients of the Legendre polynomial expansion of the differential cross sections and hyperon polarizations are presented. No evidence is seen in the ..pi lambda.. channel for the suggested 3/2/sup -/ resonance at 1580 MeV. The cross section for the K/sup 0/sub(S)p channel shows an energy dependence which is not predicted by the existing phase shift solutions based on charged kaon data.

    The first observation of the decay $B^{0} \\to \\overline{D}^{0}K^{+}K^{-}$ is reported from an analysis of $0.62 \\ \\mathrm{fb}^{-1}$ of $pp$ collision data collected with the LHCb detector.

We obtain σ B =1.5±0.7(stat)±0.6(syst) μb for B 0 mesons with transverse momentum P T >9.0 GeV/c and rapidity |y| b =3.7±1.6(stat)±1.5(syst) μb for b quarks with P T >11.5 GeV/c and rapidity |y|<1.0. The b quark cross section is compared to next-to-leading order QCD calculations and previous measurements

    The inclusion interaction of the complexes between Vitamin K3 (VK3) and β-cyclodextrin (β-CD), hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (HP-β-CD) and sulfobutylether-β-cyclodextrin (SBE-β-CD) were studied by using steady-state fluorescence measurements. The various factors affecting the inclusion process were examined in detail. The formation constants and inclusion stoichiometry for VK3-CDs were determined. The results showed that the inclusion ability of β-CD and its derivatives was the order: SBE-β-CD>HP-β-CD>β-CD. The related inclusion mechanism is proposed to explain the inclusion process. A method of determining VK3 was established with the linear range was 2.5×10-6-5.0×10-4 M, and was used to determine the VK3 tablets. The recoveries were in the range of 97.52-103.5%. The results were satisfactory.

    We report on a measurement of the inclusive jet production cross section as a function of the jet transverse momentum in pp collisions at (square root s)=1.96 TeV using data collected with the upgraded Collider Detector at Fermilab in run II, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 385 pb-1. The measurement is carried out for jets with rapidity 0.10.7 and transverse momentum in the range 54cross section after the necessary nonperturbative parton-to-hadron corrections are included.

  3. Inclusive cross sections in AA collisions at high energies

    Braun, M.A.

    1988-01-01

    Inclusive cross sections in AA collisions at high energies are considered in the Glauber multiple scattering theory taking into account many-nucleon collisions. Correspondence is found between the AA amplitude and the effective action of the two-dimensional quantum field theory with exponential interaction. The tree and one-loop contributions are calculated in this formalism. The rules are derived, which relate the absorption part of the AA-collision amplitudes associated with various inclusive cross sections to the absorption parts of NN amplitudes. These rules generalize the well-known Agranowsky-Gribov-Kanchelli rules for hh and hA collisions. Formulas are written for single and double inclusive cross sections in AA collisions

  4. Inclusive diffractive cross sections in deep inelastic ep scattering at HERA

    2012-04-15

    Diffractive deep-inelastic scattering events in ep collisions at HERA are the subject of this thesis. The cross sections for inclusive diffraction, ep {yields} eXp, measured by the H1 and ZEUS Collaborations were combined, providing a model-independent check of the data consistency and a cross calibration between the two experiments, and resulting in single data sets with improved accuracy and precision. Two sets of combined results were obtained. The cross sections measured using the proton-spectrometer data were combined, both in the range of t, the squared four-momentum transfer at the proton vertex, common to the two experiments (0.09< vertical stroke t vertical stroke <0.55 GeV{sup 2}) and in the extended t-range vertical stroke t vertical stroke <1 GeV{sup 2}. The resulting cross sections cover the region 2.5{<=} Q{sup 2} {<=}200 GeV{sup 2} in photon virtualities, 0.0003{<=}x{sub P}{<=}0.09 in the proton fractional momentum losses and 0.0018{<=} {beta} {<=}0.816 in {beta}=x/x{sub P}, where x is the Bjorken scaling variable. The cross sections obtained from data with the large rapidity gap signature were also combined in the kinematic range 2.5{<=} Q{sup 2} {<=}1600 GeV{sup 2}, 0.0003{<=}x{sub P}{<=}0.03 and 0.0017{<=} {beta} {<=}0.8, for masses of the hadronic final state M{sub X}>4 GeV. The inclusive diffractive reduced cross section {sigma}{sub r}{sup D(3)} was measured with data collected by the ZEUS detector, at two different centre-of-mass energies, 318 and 225 GeV. The diffractive data were selected with the large rapidity gap method in the kinematic region 20< Q{sup 2} <130 GeV{sup 2}, 0.05< {beta} <0.85 and 0.000630.01. The measurement covers an unexplored range of y (y>or similar 0.55), the inelasticity of the interaction.

    We report measurements of cross sections for the reaction p(e,e(prime)K + )Y, for both the Lambda and Sigma 0 hyperon states, at an invariant mass of W = 1.84 GeV and four-momentum transfers 0.5 2 2 . Data were taken for three values of virtual photon polarization, allowing the decomposition of the cross sections into longitudinal and transverse components. The Lambda data is a revised analysis of prior work, whereas the Sigma 0 results have not been previously reported

    The ratio Φ→K + K - /K 0 K 0 is discussed and its present experimental value is compared with theoretical expectations. A difference larger than two standard deviations is observed. It is critically examined a number of mechanisms that could account for this discrepancy, which remains unexplained. Measurements at DAΦNE at the level of the per mille accuracy can clarify whether there exist any anomaly

    The inclusive jet cross-section has been measured in proton-proton collisions at √s = 2.76 TeV in a dataset corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 0.20 pb−1 collected with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider in 2011. Jets are identified using the anti-kt algorithm with two radius parameters of 0.4 and 0.6. The inclusive jet double-differential cross-section is presented as a function of the jet transverse momentum pT and jet rapidity y, covering a range of 20 ≤ pT < 430 GeV and |y| < 4.4. The ratio of the cross-section to the inclusive jet cross-section measurement at √s = 7 TeV, published by the ATLAS Collaboration, is calculated as a function of both transverse momentum and the dimensionless quantity xT = 2pT/√s, in bins of jet rapidity. The systematic uncertainties on the ratios are significantly reduced due to the cancellation of correlated uncertainties in the two measurements. Results are compared to the prediction from next-to-leading order perturbative QCD calculation...

    Inclusive-jet cross sections have been measured in the reaction ep->e+jet+X for photon virtuality Q2 17 GeV and -1 < etajet < 2.5. In addition, measurements of double-differential inclusive-jet cross sections are presented as functions of ETjet in different regions of etajet. Next-to-leading-order QCD calculations give a good description of the measurements, except for jets with low ETjet and high etajet. The influence of non-perturbative effects not related to hadronisation was studied. Measurements of the ratios of cross sections using different jet algorithms are also presented; the measured ratios are well described by calculations including up to O(alphas2) terms. Values of alphas(Mz) were extracted from the measurements and the energy-scale dependence of the coupling was determined. The value of alphas(Mz) extracted from the measurements based on the kT jet algorithm is alphas(Mz) = 0.1206 +0.0023 -0.0022 (exp.) +0.0042 -0.0035 (th.); the results from the anti-kT and SIScone algorithms are compat...

    Inclusive jet and dijet cross-sections are measured in proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV. The measurement uses a dataset with an integrated luminosity of 3.2 fb$^{-1}$ recorded in 2015 with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. Jets are identified using the anti-${k_t}$ algorithm with a radius parameter value of $R=0.4$. The inclusive jet cross-sections are measured double-differentially as a function of the jet transverse momentum, covering the range from 100 GeV to 3.5 TeV, and the absolute jet rapidity up to $|y|=3$. The double-differential dijet production cross-sections are presented as a function of the dijet mass, covering the range from 300 GeV to 9 TeV, and the half absolute rapidity separation between the two leading jets within $|y|<3$, $y*$, up to $y*=3$. Next-to-leading-order, and next-to-next-to-leading-order for the inclusive jet measurement, perturbative QCD calculations corrected for non-perturbative and electroweak effects are compared to the measure...

  10. Inclusive vector meson production and hadron structure

    It is shown that J/PSI production in hadronic interactions is dominated by central production from sea quarks even at beam momenta as low as 40 GeV/c. All known experimental data on inclusive vector meson production support the hypothesis that cross sections obtained from meson-nucleon and nucleon-nucleon interactions have to be compared in the quark C.M. system. With the distinction of sea quark and valence quark interactions in the additive quark model a consistent description of inclusive rho, K*, PHI and J/PSI production in hadronic interactions. A natural connection of inclusive rho 0 production cross sections in anti pp, pp and πp interactions is obtained. (orig.) [de

    Properties of Sigma /sup +or-/(1385) inclusively produced in 4.2 GeV/c K/sup -/p interactions are studied. Inclusive cross sections are presented together with differential cross sections as functions of x and p/sub t//sup 2/ for both Sigma /sup +/(1385) and Sigma /sup - /(1385). The complete density matrix for Sigma /sup +/(1385) production at small momentum transfer is studied as a function of t and of recoil mass MM/sup 2/. Substantial agreement with the predictions of the additive quark model is found. The Sigma /sup + /(1385) production in the target fragmentation region is studied in the framework of the triple-Regge model. (17 refs).

    In the framework of recently proposed effective Lagrangians for weak nonleptonic meson interactions the amplitudes of the decays K 0 → 3π have been calculated with inclusion of isospin breaking and meson rescattering effects. The imaginary part of the penguin diagram contribution, which determines direct CP-violation in nonleptonic kaon decays, has been fixed with the help of the measured ratio ε'/ε of CP-violation parameters. The modification of the Li-Wolfenstein relation for the direct CP-violation parameter in K 0 (K-bar 0 ) → π + π - π 0 decays is discussed. (author). 27 refs, 3 figs, 1 tab

    A measurement of inclusive multijet event cross sections is presented from proton-proton collisions recorded at $\\sqrt{s} = 8\\,$TeV with the CMS detector and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $19.7\\,\\mathrm{fb}^{-1}$. Jets are reconstructed with the anti-k$_t$ clustering algorithm for a jet size parameter $R=0.7$ in a phase space region ranging up to jet transverse momenta $p_\\mathrm{T}$ of $2.0\\,$TeV and an absolute rapidity of $|y|=2.5$. The inclusive 2-jet and 3-jet event cross sections are measured as a function of the average $p_\\mathrm{T}$ of the two leading jets. The data are well described by predictions at next-to-leading order in perturbative quantum chromodynamics and additionally are compared to several Monte Carlo event generators. The strong coupling constant at the scale of the Z boson mass is inferred from a fit of the ratio of the 3-jet over 2-jet event cross section giving $\\alpha_s(M_Z) = 0.1150\\,\\pm0.0010\\,\\textrm{(exp)}\\,\\pm0.0013\\,\\textrm{(PDF)}\\, \\pm0.0015\\,\\textrm{(NP)}\\,^{+...

    A measurement of the double-differential inclusive jet cross section as a function of the jet transverse momentum p{sub T} and the absolute jet rapidity |y| is presented. Data from LHC proton-proton collisions at √s=8 TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 19.7 fb{sup −1}, have been collected with the CMS detector. Jets are reconstructed using the anti-k{sub T} clustering algorithm with a size parameter of 0.7 in a phase space region covering jet p{sub T} from 74 GeV up to 2.5 TeV and jet absolute rapidity up to |y|=3.0. The low-p{sub T} jet range between 21 and 74 GeV is also studied up to |y|=4.7, using a dedicated data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 5.6 pb{sup −1}. The measured jet cross section is corrected for detector effects and compared with the predictions from perturbative QCD at next-to-leading order (NLO) using various sets of parton distribution functions (PDF). Cross section ratios to the corresponding measurements performed at 2.76 and 7 TeV are presented. From the measured double-differential jet cross section, the value of the strong coupling constant evaluated at the Z mass is α{sub S}(M{sub Z})=0.1164{sub −0.0043}{sup +0.0060}, where the errors include the PDF, scale, nonperturbative effects and experimental uncertainties, using the CT10 NLO PDFs. Improved constraints on PDFs based on the inclusive jet cross section measurement are presented.

    The CP asymmetries of the decay B d 0K 0 anti K 0 , which originates from anti b→ anti d s anti s flavor-changing neutral-current processes, and its CP-averaged branching ratio BR(B d →K 0 anti K 0 ) offer interesting avenues to explore flavor physics. We show that we may characterize this channel, within the standard model, in a theoretically clean manner through a surface in observable space. In order to extract the relevant information from BR (B d →K 0 anti K 0 ), further information is required, which is provided by the B→ππ system and the SU(3) flavor symmetry, where we include the leading factorizable SU(3)-breaking corrections and discuss how experimental insights into non-factorizable effects can be obtained. We point out that the standard model implies a lower bound for BR(B d →K 0 anti K 0 ), which is very close to its current experimental upper bound, thereby suggesting that this decay should soon be observed. Moreover, we explore the implications for ''color suppression'' in the B→ππ system, and convert the data for these modes in a peculiar standard-model pattern for the CP-violating B d 0K 0 anti K 0 observables.

    We report the first measurement of differential and total cross sections for the γ d →K0Λ (p ) reaction, using data from the CLAS detector at the Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility. Data collected during two separate experimental runs were studied with photon-energy coverage 0.8-3.6 GeV and 0.5- 2.6 GeV, respectively. The two measurements are consistent giving confidence in the method and determination of systematic uncertainties. The cross sections are compared with predictions from the KAON-MAID theoretical model (without kaon exchange), which deviate from the data at higher W and at forward kaon angles. These data, along with previously published cross sections for K+Λ photoproduction, provide essential constraints on the nucleon resonance spectrum. A first partial wave analysis was performed that describes the data without the introduction of new resonances.

    K-Shell x-ray production cross sections for the target elements Sc, Ti, V, Mn, Fe, Co, and Ni were measured for incident 10 B ions over the energy range 4.0 to 38.0 MeV. The cross section data were compared to the theoretical predictions of the binary encounter approximation (BEA); the plane wave born approximation (PWBA); and the PWBA modified to include corrections for increased binding energy (B), Coulomb deflection of the incident ion (C), orbital perturbation due to polarization (P), and relativistic effects (R). In addition, fluorescence yield variations (W/sub K/) and contributions to the cross sections from electron capture (EC) were included. It was found that the predictions of the fully modified PWBA with contributions from electron capture and fluorescence yield variations included provided the best fit to the experimental data over the entire energy range for each target element. The Kβ/Kα x-ray intensity ratios were compared to theoretical values that assume single hole ionization, and the x-ray energy shifts presented as a function of the energy of the incident ion. These two measurements provided confirmation of the occurrence of multiple ionization for 10 B bombardment of target elements in the range 21 less than or equal to Z 2 less than or equal to 28

    A search for $B_{(s)}^{0} \\to K_{S}^{0} K^{*}(892)^{0}$ decays is performed using $pp$ collision data, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $1.0~\\text{fb}^{-1}$, collected with the LHCb detector at a centre-of-mass energy of $7~\\text{TeV}$. The $B_{s}^{0} \\to K_{S}^{0} K^{*}(892)^{0}$ decay is observed for the first time, with a significance of 7.1 standard deviations. The branching fraction is measured to be \\begin{equation*} \\mathcal{B}(B_{s}^{0} \\to \\bar{K}^{0} K^{*}(892)^{0}) + \\mathcal{B}(B_{s}^{0} \\to K^{0} \\bar{K}^{*}(892)^{0}) = (16.4 \\pm 3.4 \\pm 2.3) \\times 10^{-6},\\\\ \\end{equation*} where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second is systematic. No evidence is found for the decay $B^{0} \\to K_{S}^{0} K^{*}(892)^{0}$ and an upper limit is set on the branching fraction, $\\mathcal{B}(B^{0} \\to \\bar{K}^{0} K^{*}(892)^{0}) + \\mathcal{B}(B^{0} \\to K^{0} \\bar{K}^{*}(892)^{0}) < 0.96 \\ \\times 10^{-6}, $ at $90\\,\\% $ confidence level.

    2016-01-01

    This note presents the measurement of inclusive-jet cross-sections in proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of $13~\\mathrm{TeV}$. The measurement uses data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $3.2~\\text{fb}^{-1}$ collected with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider in 2015. Jets are clustered using the anti-${k_t}$ algorithm with a radius parameter value of $R = 0.4$. Double differential inclusive-jet cross-sections are presented as a function of the jet transverse momentum, covering the range from $100~\\mathrm{GeV}$ to about $3.2~\\mathrm{TeV}$, and of the absolute jet rapidity, up to $|y|=3$. The predictions of next-to-leading-order QCD calculations using several parton distribution function (PDF) sets and corrected for non-perturbative and electroweak effects are compared to the measured cross-sections. The predictions are consistent with the measured cross-sections within uncertainties.

    The new stage of the Mainz Microtron, MAMI, at the Institute for Nuclear Physics of the Johannes Gutenberg-University, operational since 2007, allows open strangeness experiments to be performed. Covering the lack of electroproduction data at very low Q{sup 2}, p(e,K{sup +}){lambda} and p(e,K{sup +}){sigma}{sup 0}, reactions have been studied at Q{sup 2}=0.036 (GeV/c){sup 2} and Q{sup 2}=0.05(GeV/c){sup 2} in a large angular range. Cross-section at W=1.75 GeV are given in angular bins and compared with the predictions of Saclay-Lyon and Kaon Maid isobaric models. We conclude that the original Kaon-Maid model, which has large longitudinal couplings of the photon to nucleon resonances, is unphysical. Extensive studies for the suitability of silicon photomultipliers as read out devices for a scintillating fiber tracking detector, with potential applications in both positive and negative arms of the spectrometer, are presented as well.

    A measurement of the double-differential inclusive jet cross section as a function of jet transverse momentum pT and absolute jet rapidity vertical stroke y vertical stroke is presented. The analysis is based on proton-proton collisions collected by the CMS experiment at the LHC at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV. The data samples correspond to integrated luminosities of 71 and 44 pb -1 for vertical stroke y vertical stroke < 3 and 3.2 < vertical stroke y vertical stroke < 4.7, respectively. Jets are reconstructed with the anti-k t clustering algorithm for two jet sizes, R, of 0.7 and 0.4, in a phase space region covering jet p T up to 2 TeV and jet rapidity up to vertical stroke y vertical stroke = 4.7. Predictions of perturbative quantum chromodynamics at next-to-leading order precision, complemented with electroweak and nonperturbative corrections, are used to compute the absolute scale and the shape of the inclusive jet cross section. The cross section difference in R, when going to a smaller jet size of 0.4, is best described by Monte Carlo event generators with next-to-leading order predictions matched to parton showering, hadronisation, and multiparton interactions. In the phase space accessible with the new data, this measurement provides a first indication that jet physics is as well understood at √(s) = 13 TeV as at smaller centre-of-mass energies. (orig.)

    Transverse and longitudinal distributions for the K 0 inclusive production induced by 10GeV/c K + incident on complex nuclei are obtained. They are compared with the same distributions on hydrogen from K + at comparable energies. Some differences are observed in the rapidity distributions of K 0 when produced on nuclei and on free protons. These differences are correlated with the fast charged track multiplicity associated with the observed K 0

    K-Shell x-ray production cross sections for the target elements Sc, Ti, V, Mn, Fe, Co, and Ni were measured for incident /sup 10/B ions over the energy range 4.0 to 38.0 MeV. The cross section data were compared to the theoretical predictions of the binary encounter approximation (BEA); the plane wave born approximation (PWBA); and the PWBA modified to include corrections for increased binding energy (B), Coulomb deflection of the incident ion (C), orbital perturbation due to polarization (P), and relativistic effects (R). In addition, fluorescence yield variations (W/sub K/) and contributions to the cross sections from electron capture (EC) were included. It was found that the predictions of the fully modified PWBA with contributions from electron capture and fluorescence yield variations included provided the best fit to the experimental data over the entire energy range for each target element. The K..beta../K..cap alpha.. x-ray intensity ratios were compared to theoretical values that assume single hole ionization, and the x-ray energy shifts presented as a function of the energy of the incident ion. These two measurements provided confirmation of the occurrence of multiple ionization for /sup 10/B bombardment of target elements in the range 21 less than or equal to Z/sub 2/ less than or equal to 28.

    An empirical fit is described to measurements of inclusive inelastic electron-proton cross sections in the kinematic range of four-momentum transfer 0 (le) Q 2 2 and final state invariant mass 1.1 2 ∼ 7.5 GeV 2 , and photoproduction data at Q 2 = 0. Compared to previous fits, the present fit covers a wider kinematic range, fits both transverse and longitudinal cross sections, and features smooth transitions to the photoproduction data at Q 2 =0 and DIS data at high Q 2 and W

    2010-10-01

    Single- and double-differential inclusive dijet cross sections in neutral current deep inelastic ep scattering have been measured with the ZEUS detector using an integrated luminosity of 374 pb -1 . The measurement was performed at large values of the photon virtuality, Q 2 , between 125 and 20 000 GeV 2 . The jets were reconstructed with the k T cluster algorithm in the Breit reference frame and selected by requiring their transverse energies in the Breit frame, E jet T,B , to be larger than 8 GeV. In addition, the invariant mass of the dijet system, M jj , was required to be greater than 20 GeV. The cross sections are described by the predictions of next-to-leading-order QCD. (orig.)

    The thesis work is relative to an analysis of data collected by the DELPHI detector at LET in 1992 and 1993, in order to study the inclusive production production of {phi}{sup 0} mesons, reconstructed according to the decay mode {phi}{sup 0} {yields} K{sup +}K{sup -}. The kaon identification, indispensable to do this reconstruction, was made by the Barrel RICH detector of DELPHI. This study was first done to test the {phi}{sup 0} production in the Lund string model, which is one of the models used to describe the production of hadrons in the e{sup +}e{sup -}processes. The experimental distribution of the differential cross section of the inclusive {phi}{sup 0} production was compared to the one predicted by the model and indicates that the model well reproduces the experimental data. The mean number of produced {phi}{sup 0} per hadronic event was found to be: 0.091 {+-} 0.013, in good agreement with the expected value: 0.091. Next, high momentum {phi}{sup 0} mesons were used for a measurement of the branching ratio of the Z{sup 0} bosons into strange quark pairs: {Gamma}{sub ss}-bar/{Gamma}{sub had}. Three {phi}{sup 0} mesons samples were selected, for which the purity in Z{sup 0}{yields} ss-bar events was greater than 60, 70 and 80 %. For each of these 3 samples, the obtained experimental values are respectively: 0.16 {+-} 0.04, 0.13{+-}0.04 et 0.12{+-}0.05. These values show relatively large uncertainties and indicate an agreement of at the most 2.6 standard deviations to the expected value: 0.22. (author). 63 refs.

    The first observation of the decay $B_s^0 \\to K*^0 \\overline{K}*^0$ is reported using 35 pb$^{-1}$ of data collected by LHCb in proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV. A total of $49.8 \\pm 7.5$ signal events are observed, with a significance of 10.9 sigma. The branching fraction and the CP-averaged $K*^0$ longitudinal polarization fraction are measured to be $BF(B_s^0 \\to K*^0 \\overline{K}*^0 = (2.81 \\pm 0.46 (stat.) \\pm 0.45 (syst.) \\pm 0.34 (f_s/f_d)) x 10^{-5}$ and $f_L = 0.31 \\pm 0.12 (stat.) \\pm 0.04 (syst.)$.

The analysis uses a data-driven approach to correct for the decay time

  12. Inclusive decays of the B meson and possible life-time difference between Bd0 and B± mesons

    We study branching ratios of the inclusive semileptonic decay and the inclusive anti ccanti s decay of the B meson in the spectator model, focusing on the life-time difference between B d 0 and B + mesons. In the case of τsub(B ± )/τsub(B d 0 )=1, it is impossible to get the branching ratio below 12% for B→eνX without going over 20% for B→anti ccanti s, which is unfavored by the inclusive K - decay of the B meson. It is found that the sizable life-time difference leads to the reasonable inclusive semileptonic decay rate and the inclusive anti ccanti s decay rate. (orig.)

    The production of charged hadrons and K_s mesons in the collisions of quasi-real photons has been measured using the OPAL detector at LEP. The data were taken at e+e- centre-of-mass energies of 161 and 172 GeV. The differential cross-sections as a function of the transverse momentum and the pseudorapidity of the charged hadrons and K_s mesons have been compared to the leading order Monte Carlo simulations of PHOJET and PYTHIA and to perturbative next-to-leading order (NLO) QCD calculations. The distributions have been measured in the range 10-125 GeV of the hadronic invariant mass W. By comparing the transverse momentum distribution of charged hadrons measured in gamma-gamma interactions with gamma-proton and meson-proton data we find evidence for hard photon interactions in addition to the purely hadronic photon interactions.

  14. Measurement of CP Asymmetry in B0 --> K+K-K0S Decays

    2004-01-01

    The authors present preliminary measurements of the CP asymmetry parameters and CP content in B 0 --> K + K - K s 0 decays, with φK s 0 events excluded. In a sample of 227 M B(bar B) pairs collected by the BABAR detector at the PEP-II B Factory at SLAC, they find the CP parameters to be S = -0.42 ± 0.17 ± 0.04 and C = 0.10 ± 0.14 ± 0.06, where the first error is statistical and the second systematic. Extracting the fraction of CP-even final states from angular moments f even = 0.89 ± 0.08 ± 0.06, and setting C = 0, they determine sin 2β = 0.55 ± 0.22 ± 0.04 ± 0.11, where the last error is due to uncertainty on the CP content

    The inclusive production cross section of ω 0 and eta' were measured at transverse momenta of 3 to 7 GeV/c at 90 0 in the centre of mass. The ω 00 and eta'/π 0 production ratios were found to be 0.87 +- 0.17 and 0.9 +- 0.25 respectively, at 3.5 GeV and constant up to 7 GeV/c. The large meson/π 0 production ratio supports the hypothesis that high-psub(T) mesons are the leading fragments of the basic constituent jet. The eta'/eta ratio exemplifies the SU(3) singlet nature of the eta'. (orig.)

    Inclusive cross sections are presented for strange-particle production in proton-proton interactions at 19 GeV/c for the pairs (K 0 anti K 0 )sub(C=+1), K 0 Λ, K + Λ, K 0 Σ + , K 0 Σ - and for Λ, K 0 sub(S), Σ + , Σ - and Ψ - . The Kanti K, the KY and the total strange particle cross sections have been found to be 1.40+-0.10 mb, 2.69+-0.09 mb and 4.23+-0.20 mb, respectively. The charged multiplicity distributions for events with K 0 sub(S), Λ, (K 0 anti K 0 )sub(C=+1) or K 0 Λ are shown to follow a modified KNO curve, whereas K + Λ does not. For the inclusive reactions pp→(K 0 anti K 0 )sub(C=+1)+X ++ , pp→K 0 Λ+X ++ and pp→Λ+X ++ , it is found that the average charged multiplicity of the remainder system X ++ is the same as when X ++ is produced in other reactions with the same system energy and quantum numbers.

    Measurements of the effective lifetimes in the $B_{s}^{0} \\rightarrow K^{+}K^{-}$, $B^{0} \\rightarrow K^{+}\\pi^{-}$ and $B_{s}^{0} \\rightarrow \\pi^{+}K^{-}$ decays are presented using $1.0~\\mathrm{fb^{-1}}$ of $pp$ collision data collected at a centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV by the LHCb experiment. The analysis uses a data-driven approach to correct for the decay time acceptance. The measured effective lifetimes are $\\tau_{B_{s}^{0} \\rightarrow K^{+}K^{-}}$ = $1.407~\\pm~0.016~\\pm~0.007~\\mathrm{ps}$, $\\tau_{B^{0} \\rightarrow K^{+}\\pi^{-}}$ = $1.524~\\pm~0.011~\\pm~0.004~\\mathrm{ps}$, $\\tau_{B_{s}^{0} \\rightarrow \\pi^{+}K^{-}}$ = $1.60~\\pm~0.06~\\pm~0.01~\\mathrm{ps}$. This is the most precise determination to date of the effective lifetime in the $B_{s}^{0} \\rightarrow K^{+}K^{-}$ decay and provides constraints on contributions from physics beyond the Standard Model to the $B_{s}^{0}$ mixing phase and the width difference $\\Delta\\Gamma_{s}$.

    Inclusive-jet and dijet differential cross sections have been measured in neutral current deep inelastic ep scattering for exchanged boson virtualities Q{sup 2}>125 GeV{sup 2} with the ZEUS detector at HERA using an integrated luminosity of 82 pb{sup -1}. Jets were identified in the Breit frame using the k{sub T} cluster algorithm. Jet cross sections are presented as functions of several kinematic and jet variables. The results are also presented in different regions of Q{sup 2}. Next-to-leading-order QCD calculations describe the measurements well. Regions of phase space where the theoretical uncertainties are small have been identified. Measurements in these regions have the potential to constrain the gluon density in the proton when used as inputs to global fits of the proton parton distribution functions. (orig.)

    Single- and double-differential inclusive dijet cross sections in neutral current deep inelastic ep scattering have been measured with the ZEUS detector using an integrated luminosity of 374 pb{sup -1}. The measurement was performed at large values of the photon virtuality, Q{sup 2}, between 125 and 20 000 GeV{sup 2}. The jets were reconstructed with the k{sub T} cluster algorithm in the Breit reference frame and selected by requiring their transverse energies in the Breit frame, E{sup jet}{sub T,B}, to be larger than 8 GeV. In addition, the invariant mass of the dijet system, M{sub jj}, was required to be greater than 20 GeV. The cross sections are described by the predictions of next-to-leading-order QCD. (orig.)

  2. Inclusive Bottom Production in $p \\bar{p}$ Collisions at $\\sqrt{s}$ = 1.8-TeV at D0 Central Detector Region

    The inclusive b-quark cross section at center of mass energy of 1:8 TeV, at the Fermilab Tevatron $p\\bar{p}$ Collider, is determined from the inclusive muon cross section, with data taken during 1992-1993 at D0 detector. The analyses were realized in the detector central region. The global efficiency components were estimated from the pseudo-random event generator ISAJET, from cosmic ray data and from D0 muon data itself. The $b$-quark cross section seems to be well described by next to leading order (NLO) QCD prediction for the rapidity $\\mid y \\mid$ < 1:0 and transverse momentum greater than 6:0 GeV kinematical region

    The authors have analysed about 85000 fast Lambda /sup 0/ events, obtained in a fast proton triggered experiment performed at the CERN- Omega spectrometer at 9 and 12 GeV/c incident pi /sup -/ beam. Nearly 2500 Lambda /sup 0/K/sup +/ pi /sup -/ events have been isolated. They find strong production of quasi-two-body processes Lambda /sup 0/K* /sup 0/ and Sigma */sup -/K/sup +/ consistent with u-channel hyperon exchange. Results on Lambda /sup 0/ polarization, K*/sup 0/ decay parameters and differential cross sections are given for Lambda /sup 0 /K*/sup 0/(892) and Lambda /sup 0/K*/sup 0/(1430) final states. A comparison is made with the associated backward Lambda /sup 0/(1520)K* /sup 0/ production seen in the four-prong reaction pi /sup -/p to pK /sup -/K/sup +/ pi /sup -/ obtained in the same experiment.

    Superscaling approximation (SuSA) predictions to neutrino-induced charged-current pion production in the Δ-resonance region are explored under MiniBooNE experimental conditions. The results obtained within SuSA for the flux-averaged double-differential cross sections of the pion production for the ν_μ+CH_2 reaction as a function of the muon kinetic energy and of the scattering angle, the cross sections averaged over the angle, the total cross section for the pion production are compared with the corresponding MiniBooNE experimental data. The SuSA charged-current π"+ predictions are in good agreement with data on neutrino flux average cross-sections. The SuSA extension to the pion production region and the realistic spectral function S(p;ε) for quasielastic scattering are used for predictions of charged current inclusive neutrino-nucleus cross sections. The results are compared with the inclusive neutrino-nucleus data from the T2K experiment. (author)

    PHENIX measurements are presented for the cross section and double-helicity asymmetry (AL L ) in inclusive π0 production at midrapidity from p +p collisions at √{s }=510 GeV from data taken in 2012 and 2013 at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider. The next-to-leading-order perturbative-quantum-chromodynamics theory calculation is in excellent agreement with the presented cross section results. The calculation utilized parton-to-pion fragmentation functions from the recent DSS14 global analysis, which prefer a smaller gluon-to-pion fragmentation function. The π0AL L results follow an increasingly positive asymmetry trend with pT and √{s } with respect to the predictions and are in excellent agreement with the latest global analysis results. This analysis incorporated earlier results on π0 and jet AL L and suggested a positive contribution of gluon polarization to the spin of the proton Δ G for the gluon momentum fraction range x >0.05 . The data presented here extend to a currently unexplored region, down to x ˜0.01 , and thus provide additional constraints on the value of Δ G .

    Inclusive rho 0 production has been investigated in anti pp reactions at 22.4 GeV/c. The total cross section for rho 0 production is 8.1+-2.0 mb. The average number of rhosup(0') s per event is 0.17+-0.03. The average transverse momentum, as obtained by extrapolation of a simple exponential to the psub(T)sup(2) distribution, is 0.52+-0.12 GeV. The Feynman x and center of mass rapidity distributions show rho 0 to be ''centrally'' produced

  8. Effective response and scattering cross section of spherical inclusions in a medium

    The Maxwell-Garnett theory for a right-handed homogeneous system is extended in order to investigate the effective response of a medium consisting of low density distributed 3-dimensional inclusions. The polarisability factor is modified to account for inclusions with binary layered volumes and it is shown that such a configuration can yield doubly negative effective permittivity and permeability. Terms representing second-order scattering interactions between binary inclusions in the medium are derived and are used to reformulate conventional effective medium theory. In the appropriate limit, the one-body theory of Maxwell-Garnett is recovered. The scattering cross section of the spherical inclusions is determined and comparison is made to homogeneous dielectric scatterers in the Rayleigh limit. It is found that the scattering resonances can be manipulated using the inclusion parameters. Furthermore, the effect that two-interacting spherical inclusions in a medium have on the scattering cross section is investigated via higher order dipole moments while the issue of reducing the scattering cross section to zero is also examined.

    The decay $B^0 \\to D K^{*0}$ and the charge conjugate mode are studied using 1.0${\\mathrm fb}^-1$ of $pp$ collision data collected by the LHCb experiment at $\\sqrt{s} = 7TeV$ in 2011. The CP asymmetry between the $B^0 \\to D K^{*0}$ and the $\\bar{B}^0 \\to D \\bar{K }^{*0}$ decay rates, with the neutral D meson in the CP-even final state $K^+K^-$, is found to be \\begin{equation*} {\\cal A}_d^{KK} = -0.45 \\pm 0.23 \\pm 0.02, \\end{equation*} where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second is systematic. In addition, favoured $B^0 \\to D K^{*0}$ decays are reconstructed with the $D$ meson in the non-$CP$ eigenstate $K^+ \\pi^-$. The ratio of the $B$-flavour averaged decay rates in $D$ decays to $CP$ and non-$CP$ eigenstates is measured to be \\begin{equation*} {\\cal R}_d^{KK} = 1.36\\,^{+0.37}_{ -0.32} \\pm 0.07, \\end{equation*} where the ratio of the branching fractions of $D^0 \\to K^- \\pi^+$ to $D^0 \\to K^+ K^-$ decays is included as multiplicative factor.

    We discuss an extension of matrix element plus parton shower merging at leading and next-to-leading order. The algorithm does preserve inclusive cross sections at the respective input order. This constraint avoids potentially large logarithmic contributions, which would require approximate (N)NLO contributions to cancel against.

  11. Measurement of the inclusive jet cross section with the first data at 13 TeV at CMS

    2017-01-01

    A measurement of the double-differential cross-section of inclusive jet as a function of jet transverse momentum $p_T$ and absolute jet rapidity $\\mid y \\mid $ is presented. Data used for the analysis is obtained by the CMS experiment from proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV at the LHC. The data samples correspond to integrated luminosities of 71 and 44 pb$^{-1}$ for $\\mid y \\mid $ $<$ 3 and 3.2$<$ $\\mid y \\mid $ $<$4.7, respectively. Jets are reconstructed with the anti-$k_t$ clustering algorithm for two jet sizes, $R$, of 0.7 and 0.4, in a phase space region covering jet $p_T$ up to 2 TeV and jet rapidity up to $\\mid y \\mid $ = 4.7. Monte Carlo event generators can describe the difference in cross-section with the change of $R$ parameter if parton showering, hadronization and multiple parton interactions are incorporated to the generator. In the new energy regime, this measurement confirms that jet physics is well understood as good as at a smaller centre-of-mass energy.

We find 34.0 $\\pm$ 7.4 signal events in the mass interval $\\pm$ 50 MeV/$c^2$ around the $B^0_s$ mass, on top of 14.7 $\\pm$ 1.4 background events. The observation has a 7$\\sigma$ significance. A preliminary measurement of the branching ratio is performed, giving the result $\\cal{B}(B^0_s \\to K^{*0}\\overline{K}^{*0})$ = (1.95$\\pm$0.47($stat.$)$\\pm$0.51($syst.$)$\\pm$0.29($f_d/f_s$)) x 10$^{-5}$.

    Inclusive π 0 production at 90 0 has been studied at the ISR at ssup(1/2) = 52.7 and 62.4 GeV over the psub(T) range from 7 to 15 GeV/c. The two photons from π 0 decay yielded overlapping electromagnetic showers in the liquid-argon-Pb plate calorimeter detector system. Any direct photon production is included in these measurements. For large values of psub(T), the cross section is observed to decrease with psub(T) more slowly than the psub(T) -8 behaviour which has been observed at lower values of psub(T). (Auth.)

    We present results from a joint theoretical and experimental study of inclusive quasifree electrofission of 238 U. The off-shell cross sections for the quasifree reaction stage have been calculated within the plane wave impulse approximation with distortion corrections included in the effective momentum approximation. Proton and neutron single-particle momentum distributions were calculated in the macroscopic-microscopic approach. The fissility for proton and neutron single hole excited states of the residual nuclei 237 Pa and 237,238 U was calculated within the compound nucleus model. Final state interaction corrections to residual nucleus excitation energy were calculated using the imaginary part of the optical potential. The total inclusive electrofission cross section was measured with high absolute precision, and all principal partial contributions are analyzed, in particular, the quasifree one

The measured branching fractions are: {Beta}(B{sup 0} {yields} {chi}{sub c0}K*{sup 0}) = (1.7 {+-} 0.3 {+-} 0.2) x 10{sup -4} and {Beta}(B{sup +} {yields} {chi}{sub c0}K*{sup +}) = (1.4 {+-} 0.5 {+-} 0.2) x 10{sup -4}, where the first quoted errors are statistical and the second are systematic. They obtain a branching fraction upper limit of {Beta}(B{sup +} {yields} {chi}{sub c0}K*{sup +}) < 2.1 x 10{sup -4} at the 90% confidence level.

    Measurements of the coherence factors (R and R) and the average strong-phase differences (δDKππ0 and δDK3π) for the decays D0K-π+π0 and D0K-π+π+π- are presented. These parameters are important inputs to the determination of the unitarity triangle angle γ in B∓→DK∓ decays, where D designates a D0 or D meson decaying to a common final state. The measurements are made using quantum correlated DDbar decays collected by the CLEO-c experiment at the ψ(3770) resonance, and augment a previously published analysis by the inclusion of new events in which the signal decay is tagged by the mode D→KS0π+π-. The measurements also benefit from improved knowledge of external inputs, namely the D0D mixing parameters, rDKπ and several D-meson branching fractions. The measured values are R=0.82±0.07, δDKππ0=(164-14+20)°, R=0.32-0.28+0.20 and δDK3π=(225-78+21)°. Consideration is given to how these measurements can be improved further by using the larger quantum-correlated data set collected by BESIII.

    2012-11-15

    We propose an extension of matrix element plus parton shower merging at tree level to preserve inclusive cross sections obtained from the merged and showered sample. Implementing this constraint generates approximate next-to-leading order (NLO) contributions similar to the LoopSim approach. We then show how full NLO, or in principle even higher order, corrections can be added consistently, including constraints on inclusive cross sections to account for yet missing parton shower accuracy at higher logarithmic order. We also show how NLO accuracy below the merging scale can be obtained.

    A binned Dalitz plot analysis of the decays $B^0 \\to D K^{\\ast 0}$, with $D \\to K_{S}^{0} \\pi^{+} \\pi^{-}$ and $D \\to K_{S}^{0} K^{+} K^{-}$, is performed to measure the observables $x_\\pm$ and $y_\\pm$, which are related to the CKM angle $\\gamma$ and the hadronic parameters of the decays. The $D$ decay strong phase variation over the Dalitz plot is taken from measurements performed at the CLEO-c experiment, making the analysis independent of the $D$ decay model. With a sample of proton-proton collision data, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $3.0\\,\\rm{fb}^{-1}$, collected by the LHCb experiment, the values of the $CP$ violation parameters are found to be $x_+ = 0.05 \\pm 0.35 \\pm 0.02$, $x_-=-0.31\\pm 0.20 \\pm 0.04$, $y_+=-0.81\\pm 0.28\\pm 0.06$ and $y_-=0.31\\pm 0.21 \\pm 0.05$, where the first uncertainties are statistical and the second systematic. These observables correspond to values $\\gamma$ = $(71 \\pm 20)^\\circ$, $r_{B^0} = 0.56\\pm 0.17$ and $\\delta_{B^0} = (204\\,^{+21}_{-20})^\\circ$. The parame...

    The production of K_short mesons in pp collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 0.9 TeV is studied with the LHCb detector at the Large Hadron Collider. The luminosity of the analysed sample is determined using a novel technique, involving measurements of the beam currents, sizes and positions, and is found to be 6.8 +/- 1.0 microbarn^-1. The differential prompt K_short production cross-section is measured as a function of the K_short transverse momentum and rapidity in the region 0 < pT < 1.6 GeV/c and 2.5 < y < 4.0. The data are found to be in reasonable agreement with previous measurements and generator expectations.

    We have made a precise measurement of the central inclusive jet cross section at √ (s) =1.8 TeV . The measurement is based on an integrated luminosity of 92 pb -1 collected at the Fermilab Tevatron p p Collider with the D0 detector. The cross section, reported as a function of jet transverse energy (E T ≥ 60 GeV ) in the pseudorapidity interval | η | ≤ 0.5, is in good agreement with predictions from next-to-leading order quantum chromodynamics. copyright 1999 The American Physical Society

    Measurements of the pp→ppK + K - reaction, performed with the experiment COSY-11 at the Cooler Synchrotron COSY, show a significant difference between the obtained excitation function and theoretical expectations including pp-FSI. The discrepancy may be assigned to the influence of K + K - or K - p interaction. This interaction should manifest itself in the distributions of the differential cross section. This thesis presents an analysis of event distributions as a function of the invariant masses of two particle subsystems. In particular in the analysis two generalizations of the Dalitz plot proposed by Goldhaber and Nyborg are used. The present Investigations are based on the experimental data determined by the COSY-11 collaboration from two measurements at excess energies of Q=10 MeV and 28 MeV. The experimental distributions are compared to results of Monte Carlo simulations generated with various parameters of the K + K - and K - p interaction. The values of the K + K - scattering length, extracted from two data sets for Q=10 MeV and 28 MeV amount to: a K + K - =(11±8)+i(0±6) fm for Q=10 MeV, and a K + K - =(0.2±0.2)+i(0.0±0.5) fm for Q=28 MeV. Due to the low statistics, the extracted values have large uncertainties and are consistent with very low values of the real and imaginary part of the scattering length. (orig.)

  4. Test of the non separability of the K0anti K0 system

    At present there is no experimental verification that the K 0 anti K 0 system remains a non-separate system when the particles fly apart. Furry's hypothesis may be considered as an example. An experimental test of this non-separability requires producing K 0 and anti K 0 interactions. It is shown that this is feasible for the annihilation panti p → K 0 anti K 0 with the CERN LEAR facility. (Auth.)

    Inclusive-jet cross sections have been measured in the reaction ep{yields}e+jet+X for photon virtuality Q{sup 2}<1 GeV{sup 2} and {gamma}p centre-of-mass energies in the region 142k{sub T}, anti-k{sub T} or SIScone jet algorithms in the laboratory frame. Single-differential cross sections are presented as functions of the jet transverse energy, E{sub T}{sup jet}, and pseudorapidity, {eta}{sup jet}, for jets with E{sub T}{sup jet}>17 GeV and -1<{eta}{sup jet}<2.5. In addition, measurements of double-differential inclusive-jet cross sections are presented as functions of E{sub T}{sup jet} in different regions of {eta}{sup jet}. Next-to-leading-order QCD calculations give a good description of the measurements, except for jets with low E{sub T}{sup jet} and high {eta}{sup jet}. The influence of non-perturbative effects not related to hadronisation was studied. Measurements of the ratios of cross sections using different jet algorithms are also presented; the measured ratios are well described by calculations including up to O({alpha}{sub s}{sup 2}) terms. Values of {alpha}{sub s}(MZ) were extracted from the measurements and the energy-scale dependence of the coupling was determined. The value of {alpha}{sub s}(MZ) extracted from the measurements based on the k{sub T} jet algorithm is {alpha}{sub s}(MZ) = 0.1206{sub -0.0022}{sup +0.0023}(exp.){sub -0.0035}{sup +0.0042}(th.); the results from the anti-k{sub T} and SIScone algorithms are compatible with this value and have a similar precision.

    The Lorentz invariant cross sections have been measured for the inclusive production of lambdas, K-shorts and lambda bars with Feynman x ranging from .2 to .98 and transverse momentum values between 0 and 2 GeV/c. This was done by fully analyzing the decays of 1.3 million lambdas, 130,000 K-shorts and 42,000 lambda bars detected in he neutral hyperon beam at Fermilab. The transverse (parity conserving) component of the lambda spin polarization has been found to be non-zero, demonstrating that the polarization is not a complex nuclear effect. The polarization depends on Feynman x and transverse momentum. The global fit of these data shows that the polarization from hydrogen is the same as that from Be

    A measurement of total and fiducial inclusive W and Z boson production cross sections in pp collisions at $\\sqrt{s}$ = 8 TeV is presented. Electron and muon final states are analyzed in a data sample collected with the CMS detector corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 18.2 +/- 0.5 inverse-picobarns. The measured total inclusive cross sections times branching fractions are $\\sigma(pp \\to WX) \\times B(W \\to l\

  9. Measurements of the electron and muon inclusive cross-sections

    Indian Academy of Sciences (India)

    We present the measurements of the differential cross-sections for inclusive electron and muon production in proton–proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of s = 7 TeV, using ∼ 1.4 pb-1 of data collected by the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. The muon cross-section is measured as a function of muon ...

    A measurement of the time-integrated $CP$ asymmetry in $D^0\\rightarrow K^0_S K^0_S$ decays is reported. The data correspond to an integrated luminosity of about $2$ fb$^{-1}$ collected in 2015--2016 by the LHCb collaboration in $pp$ collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of $13$ TeV. The $D^0$ candidate is required to originate from a $D^{\\ast +} \\rightarrow D^0 \\pi^+$ decay, allowing the determination of the flavour of the $D^0$ meson using the pion charge. The $D^0 \\rightarrow K^{+}K^{-}$ decay, which has a well measured $CP$ asymmetry, is used as a calibration channel. The $CP$ asymmetry for $D^0\\rightarrow K^0_S K^0_S$ is measured to be \\begin{equation*} \\mathcal{A}^{CP}(D^0\\rightarrow K^0_S K^0_S) = (4.2\\pm 3.4\\pm 1.0)\\%, \\end{equation*} where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second is systematic. This result is combined with the previous LHCb measurement at lower centre-of-mass energies to obtain \\begin{equation*} \\mathcal{A}^{CP}(D^0\\rightarrow K^0_S K^0_S) = (2.0\\pm 2.9\\pm 1.0)\\%. \\end{equa...

  11. A cross section measurement of charm hyperons Ξc+ and Ξc0 in 250 GeV p/K/π-nucleon interactions

    1995-01-01

    Fermilab Experiment 769 used a charge-selected, hadron beam of mean energy 250 GeV/c, composed of pions, kaons, and protons, impinging on beryllium, aluminum, copper and tungsten targets. Using a sample of approximately 4000 Ξ s - → Λ 0 π - decays, measurements of the charm baryon forward cross sections times branching ratio π ± N → Ξ c + X and π ± N → Ξ c 0 X are presented. Upper limits on α x BR are also determined for the states Ξ c + → Ξ s - π + π + and Ξ c 0 → Ξ s - π + produced in (p, π + , π - , K + , K - )-nucleon interactions

    A search for previously unobserved decays of beauty baryons to the final states $K^0_{\\mathrm{S}}p\\pi^-$ and $K^0_{\\mathrm{S}}pK^-$ is reported. The analysis is based on a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $1.0\\,\\mathrm{fb}^{-1}$ of $pp$ collisions. The $\\Lambda^0_b \\rightarrow K^0_{\\mathrm{S}}p\\pi^-$ decay is observed for the first time with a significance of $8.6\\,\\sigma$, and a measurement is made of the $CP$ asymmetry, which is consistent with zero. No significant signals are seen for $\\Lambda^0_b \\rightarrow K^0_{\\mathrm{S}}pK^-$ decays, $\\Xi^0_b$ decays to both $K^0_{\\mathrm{S}}p\\pi^-$ and $K^0_{\\mathrm{S}}pK^-$ final states, and the $\\Lambda^0_b \\rightarrow D^-_s (K^0_{\\mathrm{S}}K^-)p decay, and upper limits on their branching fractions are reported.

  13. Study of the penguin-dominated decay $B_s^0 \\rightarrow K^{*0} \\overline{K}{}^{*0}$ at LHCb

    CERN Document Server

    Alvarez Cartelle, Paula; Gallas Torreira, Abraham

    This thesis is devoted to the search for and subsequent analysis of the decay channel $B_s^0 \\rightarrow K^{*0} \\overline{K}{}^{*0}$, using the first data acquired by LHCb during 2010 and 2011 from the LHC proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy $\\sqrt{s}=7\\;{\\rm TeV}$, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $37\\;{\\rm pb}^{-1}$ and $1.0\\;{\\rm fb}^{-1}$ respectively. As a result of the work presented here, the first observation of the $B_s^0 \\rightarrow K^{*0} \\overline{K}{}^{*0}$ decay was performed. With the extended data sample collected in 2011, a combined angular and mass analysis was carried out, in order to assess the longitudinal polarisation fractions of the $K^{*0}$, obtaining $f_L = 0.201 \\pm 0.057{\\rm (stat.)} \\pm 0.040{\\rm (syst.)}$. The branching fraction for this decay was also measured to be $\\mathcal{B}({B_s^0 \\rightarrow K^{*0} \\overline{K}{}^{*0}}) =$ (10.6 $\\pm$ 1.8(stat.) $\\pm$ 1.0(syst.) $\\pm$ 0.6 $(f_d/f_s)$) $\\times 10^{−6}$, in agreement with the Standard Model pre...

  14. Inclusive photon cross section at 13 TeV

    2017-01-01

    Measurements of prompt photon production in proton-proton collisions provide a testing ground for perturbative QCD with a hard colourless probe. This kind of measurements were recently used to investigate novel approaches to the description of parton radiation, showcasing the importance of resummation of threshold logarithms in QCD and of electroweak corrections, further they are also sensitive at leading order to the gluon density in the proton. ATLAS has made public very recently the first measurements of inclusive photon production in the new kinematic regime opened by the 13 TeV collisions with an integrated luminosity of 3.2 fb^{-1}. The inclusive photo-production cross section is measured as a function of the photon transverse energy above 125 GeV in different regions of photon pseudorapidity. Next-to-leading-order perturbative QCD and Monte Carlo event-generator predictions are compared to the measured cross section and provide an adequate description of the data.

    The charmless decays $B^{\\pm}\\to K^{\\pm}\\pi^+\\pi^-$ and $B^{\\pm}\\to K^{\\pm}K^+K^-$ are reconstructed using data, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.0 fb$^{-1}$, collected by LHCb in 2011. The inclusive charge asymmetries of these modes are measured as $A_{C\\!P}(B^{\\pm}\\to K^{\\pm}\\pi^+\\pi^-) = 0.032 \\pm 0.008 {\\mathrm{\\,(stat)}} \\pm 0.004 {\\mathrm{\\,(syst)}} \\pm 0.007 (J/\\psi K^{\\pm})$ and $A_{C\\!P}(B^{\\pm}\\to K^{\\pm}K^+K^-) = -0.043 \\pm 0.009 {\\mathrm{\\,(stat)}} \\pm 0.003 {\\mathrm{\\,(syst)}} \\pm 0.007 (J/\\psi K^{\\pm})$, where the third uncertainty is due to the $C\\!P$ asymmetry of the $B^{\\pm}\\to J/\\psi K^{\\pm}$ reference mode. The significance of $A_{C\\!P}(B^{\\pm}\\to K^{\\pm}K^+K^-)$ exceeds three standard deviations and is the first evidence of an inclusive $C\\!P$ asymmetry in charmless three-body $B$ decays. In addition to the inclusive $C\\!P$ asymmetries, larger asymmetries are observed in localised regions of phase space.

    The ALICE collaboration at the CERN Large Hadron Collider reports the first measurement of the inclusive differential jet cross section at mid-rapidity in pp collisions at sqrt(s) = 2.76 TeV, with integrated luminosity of 13.6 nb^-1. Jets are measured over the transverse momentum range 20 to 125 GeV/c and are corrected to the particle level. Calculations based on Next-to-Leading Order perturbative QCD are in good agreement with the measurements. The ratio of inclusive jet cross sections for jet radii R = 0.2 and R = 0.4 is reported, and is also well reproduced by a Next-to-Leading Order perturbative QCD calculation when hadronization effects are included.

    An angular analysis of the decay $B_s^0 \\rightarrow K^{*0}\\overline{K}{}^{*0}$ is performed using $pp$ collisions corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $1.0$ ${fb}^{-1}$ collected by the LHCb experiment at a centre-of-mass energy $\\sqrt{s} = 7$ TeV. A combined angular and mass analysis separates six helicity amplitudes and allows the measurement of the longitudinal polarisation fraction $f_L = 0.201 \\pm 0.057 {(stat.)} \\pm 0.040{(syst.)}$ for the $B_s^0 \\rightarrow K^*(892)^0 \\overline{K}{}^*(892)^0$ decay. A large scalar contribution from the $K^{*}_{0}(1430)$ and $K^{*}_{0}(800)$ resonances is found, allowing the determination of additional $CP$ asymmetries. Triple product and direct $CP$ asymmetries are determined to be compatible with the Standard Model expectations. The branching fraction $\\mathcal{B}(B_s^0 \\rightarrow K^*(892)^0 \\overline{K}^*(892)^0)$ is measured to be $(10.8 \\pm 2.1 {(stat.)} \\pm 1.4 {(syst.)} \\pm 0.6 (f_d/f_s) ) \\times 10^{-6}$.

    Measurements are presented of R, the ratio of the total hadronic cross section to the cross section for mu pair production, and of the inclusive charged particle momentum distribution so sigma/dx for e + e - annihilation at center of mass energies of 5.2, 6.5, and 29.0 GeV. The ratio R is found to be approximately 3.9, consistent with quark-parton model expectations, at each of the three energies with an estimated systematic uncertainty of 6%. The inclusive cross sections show significant deviation from the scaling behavior predicted by the quark-parton model

  19. Status report of K{sub s}{sup 0} multiplicities from 2006 at COMPASS

    To describe the hadronization process of quarks into hadrons in deep inelastic scattering knowledge of parton distribution functions and fragmentation functions is necessary. Parton distribution functions can be extracted from inclusive deep inelastic scattering. To extract fragmentation functions from data taken by the COMPASS experiment final state hadrons are analyzed in addition to the incoming and scattered muon. I give a status report of K{sub s}{sup 0} multiplicities from data taken in 2006 by the COMPASS experiment which can be used to parameterize K{sub s}{sup 0} fragmentation functions.

  20. Inclusive dimuon and b-quark production cross sections in p bar p collisions at √s = 1.8 TeV

    We report on a preliminary measurement of the inclusive dimuon cross section in p bar p collisions at √s = 1.8 TeV using the D0 detector at the Fermilab Tevatron. From these results, we extract the inclusive b-quark production cross section for the kinematic range |y b | T b min < 25 GeV/c. The difference in azimuthal angle in the transverse plane for dimuon pairs from b bar b production is also shown

    2016-01-01

    The United States public schools promote inclusion and educational equity among diverse student populations. Considerable and growing numbers of students with categorical disabilities and Limited English Proficiency (LEP) are enrolled in regular classrooms. The systemic barriers in learning that they have could impact teacher perceptions and decisions about teaching practices as well as the teaching profession. These students have challenged K-12 science, technology, engineering, and mathemat...

    Methods including spectroscopy, electronic chemistry and thermodynamics were used to study the inclusion effect between γ-cyclodextrin (CD) and vitamin K3(K3), as well as the interaction mode between herring-sperm DNA (hsDNA) and γ-CD-K3 inclusion complex. The results from ultraviolet spectroscopic method indicated that VK3 and γ-CD formed 1:1 inclusion complex, with the inclusion constant Kf = 1.02 × 10(4) L/mol, which is based on Benesi-Hildebrand's viewpoint. The outcomes from the probe method and Scatchard methods suggested that the interaction mode between γ-CD-K3 and DNA was a mixture mode, which included intercalation and electrostatic binding effects. The binding constants were K (θ)25°C = 2.16 × 10(4) L/mol, and K(θ)37°C = 1.06 × 10(4) L/mol. The thermodynamic functions of the interaction between γ-CD-K3 and DNA were ΔrHm(θ) = -2.74 × 10(4) J/mol, ΔrSm(θ) = 174.74 J·mol(-1)K(-1), therefore, both ΔrHm(θ) (enthalpy) and ΔrSm(θ) (entropy) worked as driven forces in this action.

    We study phenomenologically the inclusive fragmentation cross section data of 12 C and 16 O at 2.1 GeV/nucleon, and 56 Fe at 1.88 GeV/nucleon upon collisions with a 12 C target. The main assumptions on the fragmentation mechanism are the diffractive excitation of the high energy beam nucleus into the state of virtual dissociation and its direct decay into two fragments as was previously proposed by the authors. Starting from Izosimova et al.'s formula for the same problem, we derive a phenomenological inclusive cross section formula for fragment production, which is applicable to both ordinary and very light fragments. We find that the data can be understood if we assume that the fragments are being produced not only in their ground states but also in the low lying excited states. Our formula relates the inclusive cross section of light fragment (cluster) to the effective number of the same cluster in the low lying excited states of the beam nucleus

    The total, topological, and differential cross sections for inclusive K- production in pp collisions at an incident momentum of 24 GeV/c are obtained. The experimental cross section for K- production is then used to estimate the cross section for K+ production in the model of quark fusion and recombination

    We perform a study of the final-state interactions of the K + anti K 0 and the anti K 0 d systems in the reactions pp→dK + anti K 0 and pp→dπ + η. Since the two-meson system couples strongly to the a 0 (980) resonance, these reactions are expected to be an additional source of information about the controversial scalar sector. We also show that these reactions present peculiar features which can shed additional light on the much debated meson-baryon scalar sector with strangeness -1. We deduce the general structure of the amplitudes close to the dK + anti K 0 threshold, allowing for primary K + anti K 0 as well as π + η production with the two mesons in relative S- or P-wave. The interactions of the mesons are accounted for by using chiral unitary techniques, which generate dynamically the a 0 (980) resonance, and the anti K 0 d interaction is also taken into account. General formulae are derived that allow to incorporate the final-state interactions in these systems for any model of the production mechanism. We illustrate this approach by considering two specific production mechanisms based on three flavor meson-baryon chiral perturbation theory. It is demonstrated that in this scenario the anti K 0 d interactions are very important and can change the cross-section by as much as one order of magnitude. The amount of π + η versus K + anti K 0 production is shown to depend critically on the primary mixture of the two mechanisms, with large interference effects due to final-state interactions. These effects are also shown to occur in the event distributions of invariant masses which are drastically modified by the final-state interactions of the two-meson or the anti Kd system. (orig.)

    Inclusive jet production, e+e- -> e+e- \\ee$ jet X, is studied using 560/pb of data collected at LEP with the L3 detector at centre-of-mass energies between 189 and 209 GeV. The inclusive differential cross section is measured using a k_t jet algorithm as a function of the jet transverse momentum, pt, in the range 3cross section is well represented by a power law. For high pt, the measured cross section is significantly higher than the NLO QCD predictions, as already observed for inclusive charged and neutral pion production.

    EKS is a numerical program that predicts differential cross sections for production of single-inclusive hadronic jets and jet pairs at next-to-leading order (NLO) accuracy in a perturbative QCD calculation. We describe MEKS 1.0, an upgraded EKS program with increased numerical precision, suitable for comparisons to the latest experimental data from the Large Hadron Collider and Tevatron. The program integrates the regularized patron-level matrix elements over the kinematical phase space for production of two and three partons using the VEGAS algorithm. It stores the generated weighted events in finely binned two-dimensional histograms for fast offline analysis. A user interface allows one to customize computation of inclusive jet observables. Results of a benchmark comparison of the MEKS program and the commonly used FastNLO program are also documented.

    The differential distributions over longitudinal and transvers Feynman variables for inclusive γ, Ksub(s)sup(0), Λ production in anti pp interactions at 22.4 GeV/c are presented. The rapidity distributions in the c.m.s. for γ and K 0 /K 0 particles are well described by the quark-antiquark fusion model. In the central region there is some evidence for scaling behaviour of the invariant differential cross sections F for the anti pp → γ+all in the range from 22.4 GeV/c to 100 GeV/c while for the K 0 / K 0 tilde production Frises in this energy interval. A non-zero Λ polarization of -0.414+-0.206 was measured

    A measurement of the time-integrated $CP$ asymmetry in $D^0\\rightarrow K^0_S K^0_S$ decays is reported. The data correspond to an integrated luminosity of about $2$ fb$^{-1}$ collected in 2015--2016 by the LHCb collaboration in $pp$ collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of $13$ TeV. The $D^0$ candidate is required to originate from a $D^{\\ast +} \\rightarrow D^0 \\pi^+$ decay, allowing the determination of the flavour of the $D^0$ meson using the pion charge. The $D^0 \\rightarrow K^{+}K^{-}$ decay, which has a well measured $CP$ asymmetry, is used as a calibration channel. The $CP$ asymmetry for $D^0\\rightarrow K^0_S K^0_S$ is measured to be \\begin{equation*} \\mathcal{A}^{CP}(D^0\\rightarrow K^0_S K^0_S) = (4.2\\pm 3.4\\pm 1.0)\\%, \\end{equation*} where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second is systematic. This result is combined with the previous LHCb measurement at lower centre-of-mass energies to obtain \\begin{equation*} \\mathcal{A}^{CP}(D^0\\rightarrow K^0_S K^0_S) = (2.0\\pm 2.9\\pm 1.0)\\%. \\end{equa...

    Using data from the E791 experiment at Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (Fermilab), we have studied the Cabibbo favored, but phase space suppressed decay $D^0 \\to K^-K^- K^+ \\pi^+$ with the normalization channel $D^0 \\to K^- \\pi^- \\pi^+ \\pi^+$. We report the branching ratio of $D^0 \\to K^- K^- K^+ \\pi^+$ relative to the branching ratio of $D^0 \\to K^- \\pi^- \\pi^+ \\pi^+$. This value is (0.54 $\\pm$ 0.13 $\\pm$ 0.07)%. We see a clear signal of $K^-K^+$ resonance in the decay $D^0 \\to K^-K^-K^+\\pi^+$ from which we conclude that about (60 $\\pm$ 30)% of $KKK\\pi$ comes from $D^0 \\to \\phi K^-\\pi^+; \\phi \\to K^-K^+$. We also set the range (0.30% - 0.90%) for the ratio $P_{q\\overline{q}} = P_{NoPop}$ where $P_{q\\bar{q}}$ is the contribution from either $D^0 \\to K^-K^-K^+\\pi^+$ terms that pop an $s\\bar{s}$ or corresponding $D^0 \\to K^- \\pi^- \\pi^+ \\pi^+$ terms that pop either $u\\bar{u}$ or $d\\bar{d}$ pair and $P_{NoPop}$ is the contributions from the $D^0 \\to K^- \\pi^- \\pi^+ \\pi^+$ terms that do not have such corresponding popping.

    The first observation of the $B^0_s\\to\\bar{D}^0 K^0_S$ decay mode and evidence for the $B^0_s\\to\\bar{D}^{*0} K^0_S$ decay mode are reported. The data sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 3.0 $\\text{fb}^{-1}$ collected in $pp$ collisions by LHCb at center-of-mass energies of 7 and 8 TeV. The branching fractions are measured to be \\begin{align*} \\mathcal{B}(B^0_s\\to\\bar{D}^0 \\bar{K}^0) &= (4.3\\pm0.5(\\text{stat})\\pm0.3(\\text{syst})\\pm0.3(\\text{frag})\\pm0.6(\\text{norm}))\\times10^{-4},\\\\ \\mathcal{B}(B^0_s\\to\\bar{D}^{*0} \\bar{K}^0) &= (2.8\\pm1.0(\\text{stat})\\pm0.3(\\text{syst})\\pm0.2(\\text{frag})\\pm0.4(\\text{norm}))\\times10^{-4}, \\end{align*} where the uncertainties are due to contributions coming from statistical precision, systematic effects, and the precision of two external inputs, the ratio $f_s/f_d$ and the branching fraction of $B^0\\to\\bar{D}^0 K^0_S$, which is used as a calibration channel.

    Within the framework of a (1+1)-dimensional model which mimics high-energy QCD, we study the behavior of the cross sections for inclusive and diffractive deep inelastic {gamma} {sup *} h scattering cross sections. We analyze the cases of both fixed and running coupling within the mean-field approximation, in which the evolution of the scattering amplitude is described by the Balitsky-Kovchegov equation, and also through the pomeron loop equations, which include in the evolution the gluon number fluctuations. In the diffractive case, similarly to the inclusive one, suppression of the diffusive scaling, as a consequence of the inclusion of the running of the coupling, is observed. (orig.)

    Measurements of the branching fractions of $B^0_{(s)} \\to K^{*\\pm}K^\\mp$ and $B^0_{(s)} \\to K^{*\\pm}\\pi^\\mp$ decays are performed using a data sample corresponding to $1.0 \\ {\\rm fb}^{-1}$ of proton-proton collision data collected with the LHCb detector at a centre-of-mass energy of $7\\mathrm{\\,TeV}$, where the $K^{*\\pm}$ mesons are reconstructed in the $K^0_{\\rm S}\\pi^\\pm$ final state. The first observation of the $B^0_s \\to K^{*\\pm}K^\\mp$ decay and the first evidence for the $B^0_s \\to K^{*-}\\pi^+$ decay are reported with branching fractions \\begin{eqnarray} {\\cal B}\\left(B^0_s \\to K^{*\\pm}K^\\mp\\right) & = & \\left( 12.7\\pm1.9\\pm1.9 \\right) \\times 10^{-6} \\, , \\\\ {\\cal B}\\left(B^0_s \\to K^{*-}\\pi^+\\right) & = & ~\\left( 3.3\\pm1.1\\pm0.5 \\right) \\times 10^{-6} \\, , \\end{eqnarray} where the first uncertainties are statistical and the second are systematic.

    A measurement of the inclusive Z/γ* → μ+ μ- cross section for Mμμ > 40 GeV at √s = 1.96 TeV is presented. The measurement is performed using a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 147.7 pb-1, collected with the D0 detector at the Tevatron, Fermilab, between September 2002 and October 2003. A total of 14352 di-muon events are selected and a final result of σ(Z/γ*) = 327.8 ± 3.4(stat.) ± 8.4(syst.) ± 21.3(lumi.) pb is obtained. Correcting the number of di-muon events by a factor of 0.885 ± 0.015 for the contribution from pure γ* exchange and Z/γ* interference, the inclusive Z → μ+ μ- cross section is found to be: σ(Z) = 290.1 ± 3.0(stat.) ± 7.4(syst.) ± 18.9(lumi.) pb. Finally, comparisons of W and Z boson pT distributions as measured with D0 during Run I of the Tevatron are compared to HERWIG and MC@NLO predictions. Relevant parameters in the simulations are tuned to obtain the best possible fit to the data. An excellent agreement is found for both HERWIG and MC@NLO.

    A search for previously unobserved decays of beauty baryons to the final states $K^0_{\\rm\\scriptscriptstyle S} p \\pi^{-}$ and $K^0_{\\rm\\scriptscriptstyle S}p K^{-}$ is reported. The analysis is based on a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $1.0\\,$fb$^{-1}$ of $pp$ collisions. The $\\Lambda^0_{b} \\rightarrow \\overline{\\kern -0.2em K}^0_{\\rm\\scriptscriptstyle S}p \\pi^{-}$ decay is observed with a significance of $8.6\\,\\sigma$, with branching fraction \\begin{eqnarray*} {\\cal{B}}(\\Lambda^0_{b} \\rightarrow \\overline{\\kern -0.2em K}^0 p \\pi^{-}) & = & \\left( 1.26 \\pm 0.19 \\pm 0.09 \\pm 0.34 \\pm 0.05 \\right) \\times 10^{-5} \\,, \\end{eqnarray*} where the uncertainties are statistical, systematic, from the ratio of fragmentation fractions $f_{\\Lambda}/f_{d}$, and from the branching fraction of the $B^0 \\rightarrow K^0_{\\rm\\scriptscriptstyle S}\\pi^{+}\\pi^{-}$ normalisation channel, respectively.

    This thesis investigates the inclusive production cross section of W and Z bosons as well as their ratio in association with one jet. The cross sections are estimated with 7 TeV LHC proton-proton collision data, collected by ATLAS during 2010, resulting in an integrated luminosity of approximately 40 pb−1 . This thesis focuses on the analysis performed in the electron channel, while comparisons with the results obtained in the muon channel also are included. This is the first time the W and Z production cross sections are measured at this center-of-mass energy and the results are important for various reasons, such as testing perturbative theoretical calculations and understanding these signatures as backgrounds to other physics processes. The final inclusive cross section values obtained in the electron channel are the following: σ(W → eν ) = 10.255 ± 0.031(stat) ± 0.190(syst) ± 0.349(lumi) ± 0.156(acc) nb σ(Z → ee) = 0.952 ± 0.010(stat) ± 0.026(syst) ± 0.032(lumi) ± 0.019(acc) nb The res...

  20. PDF constraints and extraction of the strong coupling constant from the inclusive jet cross section at 7 TeV

    CMS Collaboration

    2013-01-01

    The recent CMS measurement of the inclusive jet cross section at 7~TeV extends the accessible phase space in jet transverse momentum up to 2 TeV and ranges up to 2.5 in absolute jet rapidity. At the same time the experimental uncertainties are smaller than in previous publications such that these data constrain the parton distribution functions of the proton, notably for the gluon at high fractions of the proton momentum, and provide valuable input to determine the strong coupling at high momentum scales. The impact on the extraction of the parton distribution functions is investigated. Using predictions from theory at next-to-leading order, complemented with electroweak corrections, the strong coupling constant is determined from the inclusive jet cross section to be $\\alpha_S(M_Z) = 0.1185 \\pm 0.0019\\,\\mathrm{(exp.)} \\pm 0.0028\\,\\mathrm{(\\mathrm{PDF})} \\pm 0.0004\\,\\mathrm{(\\mathrm{NP})} ^{+0.0055}_{-0.0022}\\,\\mathrm{(\\mathrm{scale})}$, which is in agreement with the world average.

    The authors search for B{sup -} {yields} {tilde D}{sup 0}K{sup -} and B{sup -} {yields} {tilde D}*{sup 0}K{sup -}, with {tilde D}*{sup 0} {yields} {tilde D}{sup 0}{pi}{sup 0} or {tilde D}*{sup 0} {yields} {tilde D}{sup 0}{gamma}, and {tilde D}{sup 0} {yields} K{sup +}{pi}{sup -} (and charge conjugates). These final states can be reached through the b {yields} c transition B{sup -} {yields} D{sup (*)0}K{sup -} followed by the doubly CKM-suppressed D{sup 0} {yields} K{sup +}{pi}{sup -}, or the b {yields} u transition B{sup -} {yields} {bar D}{sup (*)0}K{sup -} followed by the CKM-favored {bar D}{sup 0} {yields} K{sup +}{pi}{sup -}. The interference of these two amplitudes is sensitive to the angle {gamma} of the unitarity triangle. The results are based on 232 million {Upsilon}(4S) {yields} B{bar B} decays collected with the BABAR detector at SLAC. They find no significant evidence for these decays. They set a limit r{sub B} {triple_bond} |A(B{sup -} {yields} {bar D}{sup 0}K{sup -})/A(B{sup -} {yields} D{sup 0}K{sup -})| < 0.23 at 90% C.L. using the most conservative assumptions on the values of the CKM angle {gamma} and the strong phases in the B and D decay amplitudes. In the case of the D* they set a 90% C.L. limit r*{sub B}{sup 2} {triple_bond} |A(B{sup -} {yields} {bar D}*{sup 0}K{sup -})/A(B{sup -} {yields} D*{sup 0} K{sup -})|{sup 2} < (0.16){sup 2} which is independent of assumptions on {gamma} and strong phases.

    The angular distribution and differential branching fraction of the decay $B^{0} \\to K^{*0} \\mu^{+}\\mu^{-}$ are studied using a data sample, collected by the LHCb experiment in $pp$ collisions at $\\sqrt{s}=7\\,{\\rm TeV}$, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $1.0\\,{\\rm fb}^{-1}$. Several angular observables are measured in bins of the dimuon invariant mass squared, $q^{2}$. A first measurement of the zero-crossing point of the forward-backward asymmetry of the dimuon system is also presented. The zero-crossing point is measured to be $q_{0}^{2} = 4.9 \\pm 0.9 \\,{\\rm GeV}^{2}/c^{4}$, where the uncertainty is the sum of statistical and systematic uncertainties. The results are consistent with the Standard Model predictions.

    A measurement is presented of the ratio of the inclusive 3-jet cross section to the inclusive 2-jet cross section as a function of the average transverse momentum, , of the two leading jets in the event. The data sample was collected during 2011 at a proton-proton centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV with the CMS detector at the LHC, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 5.0 inverse femtobarns. The strong coupling constant at the scale of the Z boson mass is determined to be alphaS[MZ] = 0.1148 +/- 0.0014 (exp.) +/- 0.0018(PDF) +0.0050/-0.0000 (scale), by comparing the ratio in the range 0.42 < 1.39 TeV to the predictions of perturbative QCD at next-to-leading order. This is the first determination of alphaS[MZ] from measurements at momentum scales beyond 0.6 TeV. The predicted ratio depends only indirectly on the evolution of the parton distribution functions of the proton such that this measurement also serves as a test of the evolution of the strong coupling constant beyond 0.42 TeV. No deviation from...

    A search for a narrow baryonic state in the $pK^0_S$ and $\\overline{p}K^0_S$ system has been performed in $ep$ collisions at HERA with the ZEUS detector using an integrated luminosity of 358 pb$^{-1}$ taken in 2003-2007. The search was performed with deep inelastic scattering events at an $ep$ centre-of-mass energy of 318 GeV for exchanged photon virtuality, $Q^2$, between 20 and 100 $\\rm{} GeV^{2}$. Contrary to evidence presented for such a state around 1.52 GeV in a previous ZEUS analysis using a sample of 121 pb$^{-1}$ taken in 1996-2000, no resonance peak was found in the $p(\\overline{p})K^0_S$ invariant-mass distribution in the range 1.45-1.7 GeV. Upper limits on the production cross section are set.

    A search for a narrow baryonic state in the pK 0 S and anti pK 0 S system has been performed in ep collisions at HERA with the ZEUS detector using an integrated luminosity of 358 pb -1 taken in 2003-2007. The search was performed with deep inelastic scattering events at an ep centre-of-mass energy of 318 GeV for exchanged photon virtuality, Q 2 , between 20 and 100 GeV 2 . Contrary to evidence presented for such a state around 1.52 GeV in a previous ZEUS analysis using a sample of 121 pb -1 taken in 1996-2000, no resonance peak was found in the p(anti p)K 0 S invariant-mass distribution in the range 1.45-1.7 GeV.

    A combined analysis of the published data on the pp → dK0 reaction at excess energies of 47.4MeV and 104.7MeV is presented that takes into account final-state interactions in both the K0 and ¯0 d channels. The strong attraction of the antikaons with nucleons, already noted for the pp → ppK + K - reaction, leads here to very different ¯0 d and K+d distributions, with the former being dominantly in an s -wave and the latter in a p -wave. Evidence is also found from the K0 distributions for the production of the a 0 +(980) scalar resonance. The inclusion of both final-state interactions improves the description of the energy dependence of the pp → dK0 total cross-section.

    Measurements were made of the differential cross sections for the charge exchange of K - mesons on protons at momenta of 25 and 40 GeV/c using a high-precision spectrometer with no magnetic field. In the range 5-40 GeV/c the reaction cross section follows a power-law dependence psub(K - )sup(-1.52). In the small momentum transfer region (-t 2 sub(π) a minimum is observed, similar to that discovered at lower energies. The differential cross sections at t=0 are considerably less than those predicted by the Regge-pole model. The parameters of the effective trajectory are determined. (Auth.)

    Measurements of inclusive W and Z boson production cross sections in pp collisions at sqrt(s) = 7 TeV are presented, based on 2.9 pb-1 of data recorded by the CMS detector at the LHC. The measurements, performed in the electron and muon decay channels, are combined to give sigma(pp --> WX) X B(W--> ln) = 9.95 +/- 0.07 (stat.) +/- 0.28 (syst.) +/- 1.09 (lumi.) nb and sigma(pp --> ZX) X B(Z --> ll) = 0.931 +/- 0.026 (stat.) +/- 0.023 (syst.) +/- 0.102 (lumi.) nb, where l stands for either e or mu. Theoretical predictions, calculated at the next-to-next-to-leading order in QCD using recent parton distribution functions, are in agreement with the measured cross sections. Ratios of cross sections, which incur an experimental systematic uncertainty of less than 4%, are also reported.

  9. K0-anti K0 mixing at three loops

    We consider diagrams of order α s 2 G F 2 for the K 0 -anti K 0 mixing, topologically different from the gluon-corrected standard box. The treatment of three-loop diagrams is simplified by factorizing them in terms of momentum-dependent effective vertices for s → dG and s → dGG transitions. An enhancement from the remaining loop-momentum integration compensates for the extra powers of the strong coupling. This gives a significant contribution to the CP-violating part (-15% to -40% of the standard-box value). The dependence of the results on the involved mass parameters is illustrated by LEGO plots for both the CP-conserving and CP-violating parts. (orig.)

    A measurement of inclusive W and Z production cross sections in pp collisions at sqrt(s)=7 TeV is presented. The electron and muon decay channels are analyzed in a data sample collected with the CMS detector at the LHC and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 36 inverse picobarns. The measured inclusive cross sections are sigma(pp-> WX) B(W-> l nu) = 10.30 +/- 0.02 (stat.) +/- 0.10 (syst.) +/- 0.10 (th.) +/- 0.41 (lumi.) nb and sigma(pp -> ZX) B(Z-> l^+l^-) = 0.974 +/- 0.007 (stat.) +/- 0.007 (syst.) +/- 0.018 (th.) +/- 0.039 (lumi.) nb, limited to the dilepton invariant mass range 60 to 120 GeV. The luminosity-independent cross section ratios are [sigma(pp->WX) B(W-> l nu)]/[sigma(pp-> ZX) B(Z->l^+l^-)] = 10.54 +/- 0.07 (stat.) +/- 0.08 (syst.) +/- 0.16 (th.) and [sigma(pp->W^+X) B(W^+ -> l^+nu)] / [sigma(pp->W^- X) B(W^- -> l^- nu)] = 1.421 +/- 0.006 (stat.) +/- 0.014 (syst.) +/- 0.029 (th.). The measured values agree with next-to-next-to-leading order QCD cross section calculations based on recent parton distribution functions.

    A measurement of inclusive W and Z production cross sections in pp collisions at sqrt(s)=7 TeV is presented. The electron and muon decay channels are analyzed in a data sample collected with the CMS detector at the LHC and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 36 inverse picobarns. The measured inclusive cross sections are sigma(pp-> WX) B(W-> l nu) = 10.30 +/- 0.02 (stat.) +/- 0.10 (syst.) +/- 0.10 (th.) +/- 0.41 (lumi.) nb and sigma(pp -> ZX) B(Z-> l^+l^-) = 0.974 +/- 0.007 (stat.) +/- 0.007 (syst.) +/- 0.018 (th.) +/- 0.039 (lumi.) nb, limited to the dilepton invariant mass range 60 to 120 GeV. The luminosity-independent cross section ratios are [sigma(pp->WX) B(W-> l nu)]/[sigma(pp-> ZX) B(Z->l^+l^-)] = 10.54 +/- 0.07 (stat.) +/- 0.08 (syst.) +/- 0.16 (th.) and [sigma(pp->W^+X) B(W^+ -> l^+nu)] / [sigma(pp->W^- X) +B(W^- -> l^- nu)] = 1.421 +/- 0.006 (stat.) +/- 0.014 (syst.) +/- 0.029 (th.). -> The measured values agree with next-to-next-to-leading order QCD cross section calculations based on r...

    A search for charmless three-body decays of $B^0$ and $B_{\\scriptscriptstyle s}^0$ mesons with a $K_{\\rm \\scriptscriptstyle S}^0$ meson in the final state is performed using the $pp$ collision data, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $1.0\\mathrm{\\,fb}^{-1}$, collected at a centre-of-mass energy of $7\\mathrm{\\,Te\\kern -0.1em V}$ recorded by the LHCb experiment. Branching fractions of the $B_{\\scriptscriptstyle (s)}^0 \\to K_{\\rm \\scriptscriptstyle S}^0 h^{+} h^{\\prime -}$ decay modes ($h^{(\\prime)} = \\pi, K$), relative to the well measured $B^0 \\to K_{\\rm \\scriptscriptstyle S}^0 \\pi^{+} \\pi^{-}$ decay, are obtained.

    We present measurements of the branching fractions and CP violation parameters for the decay channels B 0 →π + π - , B 0K + π - and B 0K + K - . The final Belle dataset of 772 million B anti B pairs produced at the Υ(4S) resonance at the KEKB asymmetric-energy e + e - collider is used. For the branching fractions, we obtain B(B 0 →π + π - )=(5.63± 0.16(stat)± 0.16(syst)) x 10 -6 , B(B 0K ± π -+ )=(18.71±0.25(stat)± 0.37(syst)) x 10 -6 , B(B 0K + K - ) -8 at 90% CL. For the CP-asymmetries, we obtain following values: A CP (B 0 →π + π - )=0.33±0.06(stat)±0.03 (syst), S CP (B 0 →π + π - )=-0.64±0.08(stat)±0.03(syst), A CP (B 0K ± K -+ )=-0.061±0.014(stat)±0.008 (syst), where A CP and S CP represent direct and mixing-induced CP violation, respectively. For the CP-violating weak phase φ 2 we exclude the region 23.8 2 <66.8 at the 1σ level. A model independent test of new physics using a sum rule in the Kπ system yields a mild deviation from the standard model of -0.289±0.139(stat)±0.064(syst) with a 1.9σ significance.

  14. Measurement of the ratio of the inclusive 3-jet cross section to the inclusive 2-jet cross section in pp collisions at √(s) = 7 TeV and first determination of the strong coupling constant in the TeV range

    A measurement is presented of the ratio of the inclusive 3-jet cross section to the inclusive 2-jet cross section as a function of the average transverse momentum, left angle p T1,2 right angle, of the two leading jets in the event. The data sample was collected during 2011 at a proton-proton centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV with the CMS detector at the LHC, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 5.0 fb -1 . The strong coupling constant at the scale of the Z boson mass is determined to be α S (M Z )=0.1148 ±0.0014 (exp.) ±0.0018 (PDF) ±0.0050(theory), by comparing the ratio in the range 0.42 T1,2 right angle S (M Z ) from measurements at momentum scales beyond 0.6 TeV. The predicted ratio depends only indirectly on the evolution of the parton distribution functions of the proton such that this measurement also serves as a test of the evolution of the strong coupling constant. No deviation from the expected behaviour is observed. (orig.)

    The search for the previously unobserved B{sup 0}{sub d,s}→K{sup *0}K{sup 0}{sub S} decays is performed at the LHCb experiment, using proton-proton collisions at a centre of mass energy of √(s)=7 TeV. These decays provide a fertile ground in the search of New Physics in CP violation measurements. The data sample was recorded in 2011 and corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 1 fb{sup -1}. The first observation of the B{sub s}{sup 0}→K{sup *0}K{sub S}{sup 0} decay is reported. A measurement of the limit and the branching fraction relative to the B{sup 0}→K{sup 0}{sub S}π{sup +}π{sup -} decay yields the following results: (B(B{sup 0} → K{sup *0}K{sub S}{sup 0}))/(B(B{sup 0} → K{sub S}{sup 0}π{sup +}π{sup -}))<0.12(0.15) at 90% (95%) CL (B(B{sub s}{sup 0} → K{sup *0}K{sub S}{sup 0}))/(B(B{sup 0} → K{sub S}{sup 0}π{sup +}π{sup -}))=0.22±0.06(stat)±0.02(syst)±0.01(f{sub s}/f{sub d}), where the first uncertainty is statistical, the second systematic and the third comes from the uncertainty on the hadronisation fraction.

    The inclusive jet cross section and jet shapes at √s = 1.8 TeV have been measured by CDF at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider. results are compared to recent next-to-leading order QCD calculations, which predict variation of the cross section with cone size, as well as variation of the jet shape with energy. A lower limit on the parameter Λ c , which characterize a contact interaction associated with quark sub-structure is determined to be 1400 GeV at the 95% confidence level. 3 refs., 4 figs

    A measurement of the $\\mathrm{K^0_s}$ and $\\Lambda$ inclusive production rates and momentum spectra in two- and three-jet events is presented. On the basis of about 3.1~million Z decays collected with the L3 detector at LEP, we observe that the production of these particles is well modeled by string fragmentation.

    A search for $C$P and $P$ violation using triple-product asymmetries is performed with $\\Lambda^{0}_{b}\\to pK^{-}\\pi^{+}\\pi^{-}$, $\\Lambda^{0}_{b}\\to pK^{-}K^{+}K^{-}$ and $\\Xi^{0}_{b}\\to pK^{-}K^{-}\\pi^{+}$ decays. The data sample corresponds to integrated luminosities of 1.0fb$^{-1}$ and 2.0fb$^{-1}$, recorded with the LHCb detector at centre-of-mass energies of 7TeV and 8TeV, respectively. The $CP$- and $P$-violating asymmetries are measured both integrating over all phase space and in specific phase-space regions. No significant deviation from $CP$ or $P$ symmetry is found.

  19. Investigation of the pp→K+nΣ+ reaction at the magnetic spectrometer ANKE-COSY

    This thesis describes measurements of the pp→K + nΣ + reaction near threshold. The work was largely motivated by the lack of data for Σ + hyperon production in pp collisions and, in particular, by recent measurements of pp→K + nΣ + by the COSY11 collaboration. The experiment performed by this group using a neutron detector reported surprisingly high Σ + cross sections that are hard to reconcile with isospin considerations. The experiment discussed in the thesis has been performed at the ANKE-COSY facility at four close-to-threshold energies. It relies on the almost background-free K + identification using the delayed-veto technique and the fact that below the threshold for pp→K + nΛπ + there is no source of the K + π + correlations other than the Σ + →nπ + decay. Thus, the detection of K + π + pairs allows one to identify the pp→K + nΣ + reaction without the need for a neutron detector. The analysis of three simultaneously measured spectra has been carried out, searching for any signal from a possible high Σ + cross section. All the K + production channels allowed at the energy of the experiment contribute to the K + inclusive and K + p correlation spectra. In the K + inclusive distributions, signals from the different production channels are summed and can only be isolated using theoretical models. In the K + p correlation spectra, there are not only signals from the direct reaction protons but also protons from hyperon decays can be observed. Thus, the signal from Σ + →pπ 0 decay contributes to the K + p missing mass. The study of the K + π + correlations allows one to identify the Σ + reaction channels and to estimate the total production cross section. This method has been successfully applied to existing ANKE data collected in August 2003 and resulted in a publication a refereed journal. Analysis of experimental data collected in September 2007 yielded following results: -The pp→K + nΣ + total cross sections measured at four

    A study of Λ production has been made for the process p→ Λ from K - p interactions at 4.2 GeV/c. The total Λ production cross-section is (4.5+-0.2)mb and the cross-section in which Λ is associated with KantiK in the final state is found to be (0.44+-0.03)mb. A study of the polarization is made for the off-mass-shell strangeness annihilations ''KantiK''→pions and strangeness nonannihilations ''KantiK''→KantiK+pions; the polarization, when plotted as a function of x, psub(T) and (recoiling mass) 2 , exhibits differences between the two processes. The polarization observed in the strangeness nonannihilation process shows identical behaviour to that in proton antiproton reactions. An attempt has been made to understand the behaviour of the polarized and the unpolarized cross-sections as a function of recoiling mass) 2 in the triple-Regge framework

    We investigate the process e+e-→K K ¯J /ψ at center-of-mass energies from 4.189 to 4.600 GeV using 4.7 fb-1 of data collected by the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider. The Born cross sections for the reactions e+e-→K+K-J /ψ and KS0KS0J /ψ are measured as a function of center-of-mass energy. The energy dependence of the cross section for e+e-→K+K-J /ψ is shown to differ from that for π+π-J /ψ in the region around the Y (4260 ). In addition, there is evidence for a structure around 4.5 GeV in the e+e-→K+K-J /ψ cross section that is not present in π+π-J /ψ .

    The first observation of the B_{s}^{0}→D[over ¯]^{0}K_{S}^{0} decay mode and evidence for the B_{s}^{0}→D[over ¯]^{*0}K_{S}^{0} decay mode are reported. The data sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 3.0  fb^{-1} collected in pp collisions by LHCb at center-of-mass energies of 7 and 8 TeV. The branching fractions are measured to be B(B_{s}^{0}→D[over ¯]^{0}K[over ¯]^{0})=[4.3±0.5(stat)±0.3(syst)±0.3(frag)±0.6(norm)]×10^{-4},B(B_{s}^{0}→D[over ¯]^{*0}K[over ¯]^{0})=[2.8±1.0(stat)±0.3(syst)±0.2(frag)±0.4(norm)]×10^{-4},where the uncertainties are due to contributions coming from statistical precision, systematic effects, and the precision of two external inputs, the ratio f_{s}/f_{d} and the branching fraction of B^{0}→D[over ¯]^{0}K_{S}^{0}, which is used as a calibration channel.

    Measurements of inclusive production of the Lambda, Xi- and Xi*(1530) baryons in two-photon collisions with the L3 detector at LEP are presented. The inclusive differential cross sections for Lambda and Xi- are measured as a function of the baryon transverse momentum, pt, and pseudo-rapidity, eta. The mean number of Lambda, Xi- and Xi*(1530) baryons per hadronic two-photon event is determined in the kinematic range 0.4 GeV proton K0s is also presented. No evidence for production of this state is found.

  4. Quantum Mechanics and locality in the K0 K-bar0 system experimental verification possibilities

    International Nuclear Information System (INIS)

    Muller, A.

    1994-11-01

    It is shown that elementary Quantum Mechanics, applied to the K 0 K-bar 0 system, predicts peculiar long range EPR correlations. Possible experimental verifications are discussed, and a concrete experiment with anti-protons annihilations at rest is proposed. A pedestrian approach to local models shows that K 0 K-bar 0 experimentation could provide arguments to the local realism versus quantum theory controversy. (author). 17 refs., 23 figs

    Measurements of γp→K + Λ and γp→K + Σ 0 cross-sections have been obtained with the photon tagging facility and the Crystal Ball calorimeter at MAMI-C. The measurement uses a novel K + meson identification technique in which the weak decay products are characterized using the energy and timing characteristics of the energy deposit in the calorimeter, a method that has the potential to be applied at many other facilities. The fine center-of-mass energy (W) resolution and statistical accuracy of the new data results in a significant impact on partial wave analyses aiming to better establish the excitation spectrum of the nucleon. The new analyses disfavor a strong role for quark–diquark dynamics in the nucleon

  6. Measurements of inclusive W and Z cross sections in pp collisions at sqrt(s)=7 TeV

    Measurements of inclusive W and Z boson production cross sections in pp collisions at sqrt(s)=7 TeV are presented, based on 2.9 inverse picobarns of data recorded by the CMS detector at the LHC. The measurements, performed in the electron and muon decay channels, are combined to give sigma(pp to WX) times B(W to muon or electron + neutrino) = 9.95 \\pm 0.07(stat.) \\pm 0.28(syst.) \\pm 1.09(lumi.) nb and sigma(pp to ZX) times B(Z to oppositely charged muon or electron pairs) = 0.931 \\pm 0.026(stat.) \\pm 0.023(syst.) \\pm 0.102(lumi.) nb. Theoretical predictions, calculated at the next-to-next-to-leading order in QCD using recent parton distribution functions, are in agreement with the measured cross sections. Ratios of cross sections, which incur an experimental systematic uncertainty of less than 4%, are also reported.

  7. Formal Semantics and Implementation of BPMN 2.0 Inclusive Gateways

    Science.gov (United States)

    Christiansen, David Raymond; Carbone, Marco; Hildebrandt, Thomas

    We present the first direct formalization of the semantics of inclusive gateways as described in the Business Process Modeling Notation (BPMN) 2.0 Beta 1 specification. The formal semantics is given for a minimal subset of BPMN 2.0 containing just the inclusive and exclusive gateways and the start and stop events. By focusing on this subset we achieve a simple graph model that highlights the particular non-local features of the inclusive gateway semantics. We sketch two ways of implementing the semantics using algorithms based on incrementally updated data structures and also discuss distributed communication-based implementations of the two algorithms.

  8. Analysis of the differential cross sections for the reaction pp{yields}ppK{sup +}K{sup -} in view of the K{sup +}K{sup -} interaction

    Silarski, M.

    2008-07-15

    Measurements of the pp{yields}ppK{sup +}K{sup -} reaction, performed with the experiment COSY-11 at the Cooler Synchrotron COSY, show a significant difference between the obtained excitation function and theoretical expectations including pp-FSI. The discrepancy may be assigned to the influence of K{sup +}K{sup -} or K{sup -}p interaction. This interaction should manifest itself in the distributions of the differential cross section. This thesis presents an analysis of event distributions as a function of the invariant masses of two particle subsystems. In particular in the analysis two generalizations of the Dalitz plot proposed by Goldhaber and Nyborg are used. The present Investigations are based on the experimental data determined by the COSY-11 collaboration from two measurements at excess energies of Q=10 MeV and 28 MeV. The experimental distributions are compared to results of Monte Carlo simulations generated with various parameters of the K{sup +}K{sup -} and K{sup -}p interaction. The values of the K{sup +}K{sup -} scattering length, extracted from two data sets for Q=10 MeV and 28 MeV amount to: a{sub K{sup +}}{sub K{sup -}}=(11{+-}8)+i(0{+-}6) fm for Q=10 MeV, and a{sub K{sup +}}{sub K{sup -}}=(0.2{+-}0.2)+i(0.0{+-}0.5) fm for Q=28 MeV. Due to the low statistics, the extracted values have large uncertainties and are consistent with very low values of the real and imaginary part of the scattering length. (orig.)

  9. A Study of (bar B)0 --> D(*)0 (bar K)(*)0 Decays

    International Nuclear Information System (INIS)

    Aubert, B.

    2004-01-01

    The authors presented evidence for the decay (bar B) 0 --> D* 0 (bar K) 0 as well as new measurements of the branching fractions for the decays (bar B) 0 --> D 0 (bar K) 0 and D 0 (bar K)* 0 . Their measurements are in agreement with the expectation derived from a cited reference and with previous measurements. They use the central value of their measurement for B((bar B) 0 --> (bar D) 0 K* 0 ) and obtain τ < 0.8 at the 90% C.L. from a central value of τ = 0.4 ± 0.2 (stat.) ± 0.2 (syst.). The main contribution to the systematic uncertainty is from the estimated peaking background since most systematic uncertainties on the branching fractions cancel in the ratio

  10. Measurement of the time-integrated CP asymmetry in $D^0 \\to K_S^0 K_S^0$ decays with LHCb

    CP violation in charm has not yet been observed, although measurements of time-integrated CP asymmetries in $D^0 \\to K^+K^-$ and $D^0 \\to \\pi^+\\pi^- decays$ have reached a remarkable precision, O(0.1%). The $D^0 \\to K_S^0 K_S^0$ decay is a promising discovery channel for CP violation in charm. A prediction based on Standard Model gives an upper limit for the CP asymmetry of 1.1% (C.L. 95%). Further enhancements could result from contributions from physics beyond the Standard Model. We present a measurement of the time-integrated CP asymmetry in prompt $D^0 \\to K_S^0 K_S^0$ decays, performed using data collected with LHCb experiment in 2015 and 2016 at a 13 TeV pp center-of-mass energy (Run-2). This result improves the sensitivity obtained by LHCb in Run-1.

    Amplitude models are applied to studies of resonance structure in $D^0\\to K^0_S K^- \\pi^+$ and $D^0\\to K^0_S K^+ \\pi^-$ decays using $pp$ collision data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $3.0\\,\\mathrm{fb}^{-1}$ collected by the LHCb experiment. Relative magnitude and phase information is determined, and coherence factors and related observables are computed for both the whole phase space and a restricted region of $100\\,\\mathrm{MeV/}c^2$ around the $K^{*}(892)^{\\pm}$ resonance. Two formulations for the $K\\pi$ $S$-wave are used, both of which give a good description of the data. The ratio of branching fractions $\\mathcal{B}(D^0\\to K^0_S K^+ \\pi^-)/\\mathcal{B}(D^0\\to K^0_S K^- \\pi^+)$ is measured to be $0.655\\pm0.004\\,(\\textrm{stat})\\pm0.006\\,(\\textrm{syst})$ over the full phase space and $0.370\\pm0.003\\,(\\textrm{stat})\\pm0.012\\,(\\textrm{syst})$ in the restricted region.

    It is shown that ratio of production yields of K 0 and K + mesons in collisions of isotopically asymmetric nuclei at incident energies ∼ 1 GeV/nucleon is related directly enough to temperature of nuclear matter at the initial stage of the collision. Sensitivity of the K 0 /K + ratio to the temperature variation is analyzed. Ambiguities, associated with interpretation of this quantity as a probe of nuclear temperature, are discussed. It is argued that the K 0 /K + ratio is a fairly model-independent quantity, provided channels with Δ isobars dominate the kaon production. (orig.)

  16. Copper K-shell emission cross sections for laser–solid experiments

    Published measurements and models of the cross section for electrons causing K-shell emission from copper are reviewed to find a suitable expression to use when analyzing K{sub α}-emission measurements in laser–solid experiments at peak intensities above 10{sup 18} W/cm{sup 2}. Few measurements exist in the 0.1- to 10-MeV electron energy range currently of interest, leaving a number of possible suitable models that are summarized here with a number of typing errors corrected. Two different limiting forms for the cross section at relativistic energies are used, and existing measurements do not give a clear indication as to which is correct. Comparison with the limiting form of electron stopping power indicates an alternative relativistic form and also that the density-effect correction will be important in copper above 10 MeV. For data analysis relying on relative K{sub α} emission caused by electrons with energy much greater than the K-shell binding energy, the existing uncertainty in cross sections is unimportant, but it will be a source of uncertainty when using absolute values and for electron energies up to ∼6× the binding energy. K-shell emission caused by photons and protons is also briefly reviewed.

    The cross-section for inclusive phi meson production in pp collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of sqrt(s) = 7 TeV has been measured with the LHCb detector at the Large Hadron Collider. The differential cross-section is measured as a function of the phi transverse momentum p_T and rapidity y in the region 0.6 phi X) = 1758 pm 19(stat) ^{+43}_{-14}(syst) pm 182(scale) microbarn, where the first systematic uncertainty depends on the p_T and y region and the second is related to the overall scale. Predictions based on the Pythia 6.4 generator underestimate the cross-section.

    Measurements of the neutron activation constants Q 0 and k 0 for the 27 Al(n, γ) 28 Al reaction have been performed in two irradiation channels with different spectral characteristics at the JSI TRIGA Mark II reactor. In the determination of Q 0 the fission spectrum contribution to the reaction rates has been corrected for. The final experimental value of the Q 0 factor was found to differ significantly from the adopted value in the k 0 -database. The experimental value of the k 0 factor is in agreement with the recommended value in the k 0 -database. The thermal cross-section and resonance integral for the reaction were found to be in good agreement with the values calculated from the cross-sections from the ENDF/B-VII.1 library. (author)

  19. Effective-gluon model description of inclusive meson production in π+- p and pp collisions

    The recently introduced effective-gluon (EG) model is applied to inclusive meson production at large transverse momentum (p/sub t)/from π +- p and pp interactions. In the EG model the dependence of the inclusive differential cross section on p/ sub t/ and center-of-momentum energy √s is characterized by a single universal constant B = 18 GeV 2 ; this constant is obtained by fitting to the inclusive data for pp → cX with c = π +- π 0 , K +- p, and p-bar. Since the EG model requires that the inclusive differential cross sections for π +- p → X/should be characterized by the same constant B, the dependence of these cross sections on p/sub t/and √s should follow from the previous analysis of pp → cX without the introduction of any additional parameters. The only new information required is the form of the momentum distribution function for partons in the incident pion. Several models for this function are considered and it it shown that all of the alternatives lead to approximately the same predictions. Comparison of theory and experiment indicates that the EG model description of the recent Fermilab data of Donaldson et al. is good to approximately 15--20 % per data point over a range of more than 10 5 in the magnitude of the inclusive cross section

    Decays of the form $B^{0}_{(s)}\\rightarrow J/\\psi K_{{\\rm S}}^{0} h^+ h^{\\left(\\prime\\right) -}$ ($h^{(\\prime)} = K, \\pi$) are searched for in proton-proton collision data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $1.0 \\, {\\rm fb}^{-1}$ recorded with the LHCb detector. The first observation of the $B^{0}_{s}\\rightarrow J/\\psi K_{{\\rm S}}^{0} K^{\\pm} \\pi^{\\mp}$ decay is reported, with significance in excess of 10 standard deviations. The $B^{0}\\rightarrow J/\\psi K_{{\\rm S}}^{0} K^{+} K^{-}$ decay is also observed for the first time. The branching fraction of $B^{0}\\rightarrow J/\\psi K_{{\\rm S}}^{0} \\pi^{+} \\pi^{-}$ is determined, to significantly better precision than previous measurements, using $B^0 \\rightarrow J/\\psi K_{{\\rm S}}^{0}$ as a normalisation channel. Branching fractions and upper limits of the other $B^{0}_{(s)}\\rightarrow J/\\psi K_{{\\rm S}}^{0} h^+ h^{\\left(\\prime\\right) -}$ modes are determined relative to that of the $B^{0}\\rightarrow J/\\psi K_{{\\rm S}}^{0} \\pi^{+} \\pi^{-}$ decay.

    Results for the first measurement of the inclusive branching and CP asymmetry of the charmless 3-body decay B+K+π0π0 are presented. The analysis uses a data sample with an integrated luminosity of 429.0 fb-1, recorded by the BABAR detector at the PEP-II asymmetric B Factory. This sample corresponds to 470.9 ±} 2.8 million B$\\bar{B}$ pairs. Measurements of the branching fractions (B) and CP asymmetries (ACP) of some of the intermediate resonances in the K+π0π0 Dalitz plot are also presented.

    A measurement of the time-integrated $CP$ asymmetry in the Cabibbo-suppressed decay $D^0\\rightarrow K^-K^+$ is performed using pp collision data, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3fb$^-1$, collected with the LHCb detector at centre-of-mass energies of 7 and 8 TeV. The flavour of the charm meson at production is determined from the charge of the pion in $D^{*+}\\rightarrow D^0 \\pi^+$ and $D^{*-}\\rightarrow \\bar{D^0} \\pi^-$ decays. The time-integrated $CP$ asymmetry $A_{CP}(K^-K^+)$ is obtained assuming negligible $CP$ violation in charm mixing and in Cabibbo-favoured $D^0\\rightarrow K^-\\pi^+$, $D^+\\rightarrow K^-\\pi^+\\pi^+$ and $D^+\\rightarrow \\bar{K^0}\\pi^+$ decays used as calibration channels. It is found to be $A_{CP}(K^-K^+)=(0.14\\pm0.15(stat)\\pm0.10(syst))\\%$. A combination of this result with previous LHCb measurements yields $A_{CP}(K^-K^+)=(0.04\\pm0.12(stat)\\pm0.10(syst))\\%$, $A_{CP}(\\pi^-\\pi^+)=(0.07\\pm0.14(stat)\\pm0.11(syst))\\%$. These are the most precise measurements from a single experi...

    A measurement of the b-hadron production cross section in proton-proton collisions at sqrt(s)=7 TeV is presented. The dataset, corresponding to 85 inverse nanobarns, was recorded with the CMS experiment at the LHC using a low-threshold single-muon trigger. Events are selected by the presence of a muon with transverse momentum greater than 6 GeV with respect to the beam direction and pseudorapidity less than 2.1. The transverse momentum of the muon with respect to the closest jet discriminates events containing b hadrons from background. The inclusive b-hadron production cross section is presented as a function of muon transverse momentum and pseudorapidity. The measured total cross section in the kinematic acceptance is sigma(pp to b+X to mu + X') =1.32 +/- 0.01 (stat) +/- 0.30 (syst) +/- 0.15 (lumi) microbarns.

    A measurement of the b-hadron production cross section in proton-proton collisions at sqrt(s)=7 TeV is presented. The dataset, corresponding to 85 inverse nanobarns, was recorded with the CMS experiment at the LHC using a low-threshold single-muon trigger. Events are selected by the presence of a muon with transverse momentum greater than 6 GeV with respect to the beam direction and pseudorapidity less than 2.1. The transverse momentum of the muon with respect to the closest jet discriminates events containing b hadrons from background. The inclusive b-hadron production cross section is presented as a function of muon transverse momentum and pseudorapidity. The measured total cross section in the kinematic acceptance is sigma(pp to b+X to mu + X') =1.32 +/- 0.01 (stat) +/- 0.30 (syst) +/- 0.15 (lumi) microbarns.

    Cross sections are presented for the inclusive production of charged particles measured in electron-proton collisions at low Q 2 with the H1 detector at HERA. The transverse momentum distribution extends up to 8 GeV/c. Its shape is found to be harder than that observed in anti pp collisions at comparable centre-of-mass energies √s γp ∼√s anti pp∼200 GeV, and also harder than in γp collisions at lower energies √s γp ∼18 GeV. Results from quantum chromodynamics (QCD) calculations agree with the measured transverse momentum and pseudorapidity cross sections. (orig.)

    We study the structure of inclusion complexes of α-, β-, γ-cyclodextrin with mono-iodide ion in aqueous solution by means of iodine K-edge EXAFS spectroscopy. The analysis is based on the assumption that two kinds of iodide ions exist in KI-cyclodextrin aqueous solution i.e. hydrated mono-iodide ions and one-one mono-iodide-cyclodextrin inclusion complexes. In KI-α-cyclodextrin system, iodine K-edge EXAFS analyse show that the average coordination number of the oxygen atoms in water molecules in the first hydration shell decreases as the fraction of included ions increases. This result suggests that dehydration process accompanies the formation of the inclusion complex. This is not found in the case of β-cyclodextrin, indicating that in this case the iodide ions are included together with the whole first hydration shell.

    The inclusive cross section of top quark-antiquark pairs produced in $p\\bar{p}$ collisions at $\\sqrt{s}=1.96$ TeV is measured in lepton$+$jets and dilepton decay channels. The data sample corresponds to 9.7 fb${}^{-1}$ of integrated luminosity recorded with the D0 detector during Run II of the Fermilab Tevatron Collider. Employing multivariate analysis techniques we measure the cross section in the two decay channels and we perform a combined cross section measurement. For a top quark mass of 172.5 GeV, we measure a combined inclusive top quark-antiquark pair production cross section of $\\sigma_{t\\bar{t}} = 7.26 \\pm 0.13\\,(\\mathrm{stat.})\\,^{+0.57}_{-0.50}\\,(\\mathrm{syst.})$ pb which is consistent with standard model predictions. We also perform a likelihood fit to the measured and predicted top quark mass dependence of the inclusive cross section, which yields a measurement of the pole mass of the top quark. The extracted value is $m_t = 172.8 \\pm 1.1\\,(\\mathrm{theo.})\\,^{+3.2}_{-3.4}\\,(\\mathrm{exp.})$ GeV.

  11. K0-anti K0 mixing: Approaching its short-distance origin and heavy flavours through loops

    There have been three 'mysteries' in the history of the K-meson system: two of the pre-1964 physics as summarized by Feynman, 1) the unknown reasons for strangeness, 2) the unknown inner machinery of the K 0 -anti K 0 mixing, and the third, revealed to us in 1964, 3) CP violation. The attempts to explain these puzzles have been crucial in building the present, standard-model (SM) picture for understanding of elementary particle physics. As regards the first two points, I first want to illustrate how their study has opened the door to heavy flavours. Then I focus on some recently proposed short-distance K 0 -anti K 0 mixing mechanisms, and also remind the reader of the problem of separating short-distance (SD) from long-distance (LD) effects. As for CP violation 3), it is often considered to be just on the border of the SM. The observation of CP violation, still restricted to the K 0 meson, makes it that the K 0 -anti K 0 system is still one of the most intriguing systems in nature. The increasing body of data from heavy-quark physics have a chance to move the kaon from such a 'strange' (if not distinguished) place, and to provide a valuable test of the SM. (orig.)

    In a high statistics CERN 2 m bubble chamber experiment the differential cross sections and polarizations of the Λ for the reactions K - p→Λπ 0 , Λeta, Λeta' at 4.2 GeV/c have been measured. The reaction K - p→Λeta exhibits a pronounced dip around -t approximately 0.5 (GeV/c) 2 and all three reactions show a significant backward peaking (-u 2 ). The Λ polarization in the reaction K - p→Λπ 0 is measured to be significantly different from zero throughout most of the available t-range. Forward cross sections enable a determination of Rsub(T), the ratio of singlet/octet coupling eta 1 KK**/eta 8 KK**. Backward cross sections are utilized to estimate the effective eta-nucleon coupling constant gsub(etaNN) 2 over the -u range 0-1.5 (GeV/c) 2 . (Auth.)

    A laser microprobe was used to measure the Ar isotopic contents of individual mineral grains in four neutron-irradiated Allende samples: two coarse-grained Ca-Al-rich inclusions, one fine-grained Ca-Al-rich inclusion, and one sample with matrix and miscellaneous chondrules. The following K-Ar ages (G.y.) were obtained after degassing low Ar retentive sites by preheating the samples for one hour at 675 C: matrix, 3.5 + or - 0.2 three miscellaneous chondrules, 4.4 + or - 0.1, 4.0 + or - 0.1, and 4.4 + or - 0.1 and the fine-grained inclusion, 4.5 + or - 0.2. The minerals in the coarse-grained Ca-Al-rich inclusions have ubiquitous chlorine, less than 10 ppm K and apparent ages ranging upwards from 4.6 G.y. to well over 10 G.y. Possible explanations for these apparent ages are atmospheric contamination, the decay of K-40 prior to the formation of the solar system, and the trapping of radiogenic Ar-40 lost by the matrix

    New software was developed to assist users of the k 0 -approach in NAA to harmonize their results. The k 0 -IAEA software uses the holistic approach developed at the Delft Interfaculty Reactor Institute and incorporates the latest k 0 data catalogue together with additional information on coincidence and sum peaks, which together are used in the joint evaluation of samples. Multiple irradiations as well as multiple measurements of samples are treated simultaneously. Flux parameter determination as well as efficiency calibrations of detectors are accommodated using a singlemeasurement approach as developed at the Interfaculty Reactor Institute, Delft. The standard Windows software will stimulate the application of the k 0 approach through the free distribution and updates of the program. (author)

    A combination of the inclusive diffractive cross section measurements made by the H1 and ZEUS Collaborations at HERA is presented. The analysis uses samples of diffractive deep inelastic ep scattering data at a centre-of-mass energy sqrt(s) = 318 GeV where leading protons are detected by dedicated spectrometers. Correlations of systematic uncertainties are taken into account, resulting in an improved precision of the cross section measurement which reaches 6% for the most precise points. The combined data cover the range 2.5 < Q2 < 200 GeV2 in photon virtuality, 0.00035 < xIP < 0.09 in proton fractional momentum loss, 0.09 < |t| < 0.55 GeV2 in squared four-momentum transfer at the proton vertex and 0.0018 < beta < 0.816 in beta = x/xIP, where x is the Bjorken scaling variable.

    The single-particle inclusive cross sections of pions and kaons produced from the incident particles in pp and anti pp scattering is investigated under the assumption of the sequential decay mechanism of Reggeons. The many-particle production effect and the initial-decay effect are estimated from experimental data on pion production cross section with small momentum transfer at 100 and 175 GeV/c. Their Feynman-x dependence is in good agreement with the power-law behaviours C(1-X sub(F))/sup 5/ and C(1-X sub(F))/sup 3/. Predictions are given on kaon production cross section.

    Theoretical K-shell photoionization and K X-ray fluorescence (K XRF) cross sections have been fitted empirically in polynomials of photon energy E and atomic number Z. This has been used to develop a computer code KCSPIF to generate K-shell photo-ionization and K XRF cross-sections for any element in the range 5≤Z≤95 and for photon energies, above K-edge-1500 keV, when only the atomic number and photon energy are supplied as the input.

    While financial inclusion is typically addressed by improving the financial infrastructure we show that financial literacy, representing the demand-side of financial markets, also has a beneficial effect. We study this effect at the cross-country level, which allows to consider institutional variation. Regarding "access to finance", financial infrastructure and financial literacy are mainly substitutes. However, regarding the "use of financial services", the effect of higher financial literac...

    The differential cross sections and density matrix elements for the phi and rho/sup 0/ mesons have been measured in the reactions K/sup -/p..-->..K/sup -/K/sup +/(..lambda..,..sigma../sup 0/) and K/sup -/p..--> pi../sup -/..pi../sup +/(..lambda..,..sigma../sup 0/) at 13 GeV using a wire chamber spectrometer. The analysis shows that while the vector meson production is dominated by the natural parity exchange amplitude, some unnatural parity exchange is also required. Furthermore the phi and rho natural exchange cross sections are identical in shape and have the 2:1 relative strength expected in the quark model with K* and K** exchange degeneracy. The analysis of the clear peak-dip rho/sup 0/-..omega.. interference pattern observed in the ..pi../sup -/..pi../sup +/ data indicates that the ..omega.. production is in phase with the rho and of similar magnitude. Both the S* and f' meson are clearly observed in this experiment. The S* data are found to be consistent with S* parameters deduced from ..pi pi.. scattering analyses. The f' density matrix elements and a new limit on the f'..--> pi../sup -/..pi../sup +/ branching ratio are presented.

    The results of a wire chamber spectrometer experiment studying anti K*(890) production in the reaction K/sup -/p..-->..K/sup -/..pi../sup +/n at 13 GeV are presented. Strong forward structure is observed for mod(t)cross section. These features are similar to those observed in ..pi../sup -/p..-->..rho/sup 0/n data and are characteristic of ..pi.. exchange. In contrast in the intermediate, mod(t)approximately 0.2 GeV/sup 2/, and large momentum transfer regions anti K*(890) production is dominated by the natural parity rho-A/sub 2/ exchange contribution.

    Thirteen N* states have been well-established according to the Particle Data Group, but some relativized quark models predict that many more N* resonances exist. Diquark models predict that the N* spectrum is limited by a correlated quark-pair in the nucleon, but there is strong evidence for the existence of the N 3/2+(1900)** resonance, which is absent in diquark models. Measuring the spectrum of N* states will provide valuable information on the relevant degrees of freedom within the nucleons. Most of the experimental searches for the N* states have been conducted in the π N channel. Some models of baryon decays predict that most of the unobserved N* states couple somewhat weakly to the π N channel, and that some couple non-negligibly to the KY, K*Y, and KY* channels. Measurements of the cross sections and polarization observables of strangeness photoproduction reactions can provide additional information on the spectrum of N* states. These measurements can be used in coupled-channel partial-wave analyses that can provide simultaneous constraints on the N* resonance parameters from several channels. These analyses can also take into account hadronic rescattering, which is predicted to have a large effect on the measured cross sections. However, to determine the isospin decomposition of the photo-transition amplitudes to these channels, photoproduction measurements are necessary on both the proton and the neutron. Measurements of the differential cross sections of the γn\\rightarrow K*(892)0Λ and γn→ K+Σ*(1385)- reactions have been performed using data from the Jefferson Lab Hall B CLAS g13 experiment. No experimental cross section data have yet been published on the γ n\\rightarrow K*(892)0Λ reaction, and the only published cross section data on

    This dissertation presents measurements of time-dependent CP violating asymmetries in the decays B{sup 0} {yields} K{sub s}{sup 0}{pi}{sup 0} and B{sup 0} {yields} K{sub s}{sup 0}{pi}{sup 0}{gamma} based on RUN 1-4 data collected with the BABAR detector at the {Upsilon}(4S) resonance operating at the PEP-II asymmetric e{sup +}e{sup -} collider at SLAC. It was found that the CP violating asymmetry parameters are S{sub K{sub s}{pi}{sup 0}} = 0.35{sub -0.33}{sup +0.30}(stat) {+-} 0.04(syst), C{sub K{sub g}{pi}{sup 0}} = 0.06 {+-} 0.18(stat) {+-} 0.03(syst), S{sub K{sub s}{pi}{sup 0}{gamma}} = 0.9 {+-} 1.0(stat) {+-} 0.2(syst) and C{sub K{sub s}{pi}{sup 0}{gamma}} = -1.0 {+-} 0.5(stat) {+-} 0.2(syst), where B{sup 0} {yields} K{sup +0}{gamma} decays correspond to the K{sub s}{pi}{sup 0} invariant mass interval of [0.8,1.0] GeV and B{sup 0} {yields} K{sub s}{sup 0}{pi}{sup 0}{gamma} of [1.1,1.8] GeV. All results are consistent with the Standard Model predictions.

    It is known that three different solid solutions, (Na0.88K0.12)VO3, (Na0.5K0.5)VO3 and Na(V0.66P0.34)O3, form in the (Na,K)(V,P)O3 system. These compounds all have monoclinic crystal structures similar to the pure alkali metal metavanadates containing small cations, e.g. Li+ and Na+ (Space group C2/c). Metavanadates with large cations like K+, Rb+, C+s and NH+4 form orthorhombic crystals, space group Pbcm. All those are structurally related to the silicate pyroxenes. Na(V0.66P0.34)O3 and (Na0.88K0.12)VO3 have the same modified diopside structure as (alpha) - NaVO3 while (Na0.5K0.5)VO3 adopts the true diopside structure. The infrared spectra of the three solid solutions are reported here in comparison with those of (alpha) -NaVO3 and KVO3. The results are also correlated with those obtained in two independent high pressure Raman studies of NH4VO3 and RbVO3 as the introduction of a larger cation like K+ should increase the pressure in the structure.

    A search is performed for $D^{(*)+}_{sJ}$ mesons in the reactions $pp \\to D^{*+} K^0_{\\rm S} X$ and $pp \\to D^{*0} K^+ X$ using data collected at centre-of-mass energies of 7 and 8 TeV with the LHCb detector. For the $D^{*+} K^0_{\\rm S}$ final state, the decays $D^{*+} \\to D^0 \\pi^+$ with $D^0 \\to K^- \\pi^+$ and $D^0 \\to K^- \\pi^+ \\pi^+ \\pi^-$ are used. For $D^{*0} K^+$, the decay $D^{*0} \\to D^0 \\pi^0$ with $D^0 \\to K^- \\pi^+$ is used. A prominent $D_{s1}(2536)^+$ signal is observed in both $D^{*+} K^0_{\\rm S}$ and $D^{*0} K^+$ final states. The resonances $D^*_{s1}(2700)^+$ and $D^*_{s3}(2860)^+$ are also observed, yielding information on their properties, including spin-parity assignments. The decay $D^*_{s2}(2573)^+ \\to D^{*+} K^0_{\\rm S}$ is observed for the first time, at a significance of 6.9 $\\sigma$, and its branching fraction relative to the $D^*_{s2}(2573)^+ \\to D^+ K^0_{\\rm S}$ decay mode is measured.

    Cross-section measurements of seven exit-channel configurations in the neutron-deuteron breakup at 13.0 MeV are reported and compared to rigorous calculations. Our data are consistent with those of previous measurements in four of six configurations. The present data for five configurations are in good agreement with theoretical predictions. The cross-section data for the space-star and another out-of-plane configuration are larger than the theoretical predictions by more than three standard deviations. The previously observed 20% discrepancy between theory and data for the space-star configuration is confirmed in the present work. The inclusion of the Tucson-Melbourne 2π-exchange three-nucleon force changes the predicted cross section by only 2% and in the wrong direction needed to bring theory into agreement with data

    The proton, alpha-particle, and He{sup +} induced X-ray emissions of Ni were measured on mono-elemental thin films in order to obtain the K-shell X-ray production cross section in the energy range of 0.7–2.0 MeV for protons, 4.0–6.5 MeV for alpha-particles, and 3.0–4.0 MeV for He{sup +}. The proton-induced X-ray production cross section for Ni agreed well with the theoretical values, endorsing the quality of the measurements. The X-ray production cross section induced with alpha-particles is in good agreement with ECPSSR theory in the complete range of energies, while for He{sup +} that quantity is systematically below. K{sub β}/K{sub α} ratios were evaluated and compared with experimental and theoretical values.

    1994-11-01

    It is shown that elementary Quantum Mechanics, applied to the K{sup 0} K-bar{sup 0} system, predicts peculiar long range EPR correlations. Possible experimental verifications are discussed, and a concrete experiment with anti-protons annihilations at rest is proposed. A pedestrian approach to local models shows that K{sup 0} K-bar{sup 0} experimentation could provide arguments to the local realism versus quantum theory controversy. (author). 17 refs., 23 figs.

  12. Inclusive production of ρ0 mesons on protons with photons, pion and kaon beams in the energy range from 65 to 175 GeV

    Cross sections of the inclusive photoproduction and hadroproduction of the ρ 0 (770) meson on a liquid hydrogen target are given as functions of p perpendicular to (varying from 0 to 2 GeV) and x F (-0.1 to 1.0) where the photon energy range is 65 to 175 GeV and the hadrons are charged π and K of the energies 80 and 140 GeV. The ρ-signal is quantified in fits to the π + π - -mass distributions accounting for a downward mass shift of the ρ 0 peak known from the diffractive ρ 0 -production. This mass shift is shown to be significantly different from zero also in the low-x F -low-p perpendicular to region in both photon and hadron data. The ratios d 2 σ/dp perpendicular to dx F (γp→ρ 0 X)/d 2 σ/dp perpendicular to dx F (π/Kp→ρ 0 X) give an x F - and π perpendicular to - dependent VMD-factor. Comparison of hadron and photon cross sections shows a difference due to the pointlike photon-hadron-coupling at large p perpendicular to . This onset is in good quantitative agreement with the predictions of the LUCIFER-Monte-Carlo. The low and medium x F -range can be described by a quark-antiquark-fusion-model. The high x F -regions show distinct decay angular distributions matching the predictions for diffractive photoproduction and the one-pion-exchange model respectively. (orig.) [de

    We present measurements of time-dependent CP asymmetries in B0→ωKS0, f0(980)KS0, KS0π0 and K+K-KS0 decays based on a sample of 535×106 BB¯ pairs collected at the Υ(4S) resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB energy-asymmetric e+e- collider. One neutral B meson is fully reconstructed in one of the specified decay channels, and the flavor of the accompanying B meson is identified from its decay products. CP-violation parameters for each of the decay modes are obtained from the asymmetries in the distributions of the proper-time intervals between the two B decays.

    A combination of the inclusive diffractive cross section measurements made by the H1 and ZEUS Collaborations at HERA is presented. The analysis uses samples of diffractive deep inelastic ep scattering data at a centre-of-mass energy {radical}(s)=318 GeV where leading protons are detected by dedicated spectrometers. Correlations of systematic uncertainties are taken into account, resulting in an improved precision of the cross section measurement which reaches 6% for the most precise points. The combined data cover the range 2.50.000350.09 in proton fractional momentum loss, 0.09< vertical stroke t vertical stroke <0.55 GeV{sup 2} in squared four-momentum transfer at the proton vertex and 0.0018<{beta}<0.816 in {beta}=x/x{sub P}, where x is the Bjorken scaling variable.

    The angular distributions of the reactions K/sup -/p to K/sup -/p and K/sup -/p to K/sup 0/n have been measured at 23 incident K/sup -/ momenta between 1.136 and 1.798 GeV/c using the bubble chamber technique. These data, together with other published data on the same reactions, including K/sup -/p polarisations, KN total cross sections and measurements of Re f(0)/Im f(0), have been analysed in terms of partial-wave amplitudes. Resonance behaviour is confirmed for the P /sub 03/ partial wave at 1890 MeV. The resonance parameters of the F /sub 15/(1915), F/sub 17/(2030) and G/sub 07/(2100) have been redetermined. No evidence has been found for new resonances coupling significantly to KN in the energy region explored. (24 refs).

  17. K+ nucleus total cross sections

    International Nuclear Information System (INIS)

    Sawafta, R.

    1990-01-01

    The scattering of K + mesons from nuclei has attracted considerable interest in the last few years. The K + holds a very special position as the weakest of all strongly interaction probes. The average cross section is not larger than about 10 mb at lab momenta below 800 MeV/c, corresponding to a mean free path in the nucleus larger than 5 fm. Thus the K + is capable of probing the entire volume of the nucleus. Single scattering of the K + with a nucleon in the nucleus dominates the nuclear scattering, and only small and calculable higher order corrections are needed. The nucleon is a dynamical entity and its internal structure can, in principle, be altered by its surrounding nuclear environment. This work reports an experiment in which the K + is used to compare the nucleon in the nucleus with a free nucleon

    The invariant inclusive cross sections for π + mesons and protons from antipp reactions at 22.4 GeV/c are presented. The average multiplicity for π + meson and proton production is 1.92+-0.02 and 0.41+-0.02, respectively. The annihilation spectra have been approximated using the difference between antipp and pp data. The resulting distributions have similar features as the total antipp data

    The diffractive reaction p + N → [Σ + K 0 ] + N induced by 70-GeV protons is investigated at the SPHINX facility. The measured mass spectrum of the Σ + K 0 system originating from this reaction shows a resonance structure with a mass of M = 1995 ± 18 MeV and a width of Γ = 90 ± 32 MeV. The cross section for the formation of this structure is found to be σ = 182 ± 38 nb per target nucleon. These data comply well with the results that we obtained previously in studying the reaction p + N → [Σ 0 K + ] + N, where we observed the formation of the X(2000) → Σ 0 K + state, a candidate for an exotic baryon with hidden strangeness. The measured ratio R of the two branching fractions, R = Br[X(2000) → Σ + K 0 ]/Br[X(2000) → Σ 0 K + ] =1.91 ± 0.38, is consistent with the value of R = 2 expected for an isospin-1/2 baryon

    The $\\mbox{K}^0_{\\rm S}\\mbox{K}^0_{\\rm S}$ final state in two-photon collisions is studied with the L3 detector at LEP. The mass spectrum is dominated by the formation of the $f'_{2}$(1525) tensor meson in the helicity-two state with a two-photon width times the branching ratio into $\\rm K\\bar{K}$ of $76 \\pm\\, 6 \\pm\\, 11\\, {\\rm eV}$. A clear signal for the formation of the f$_{\\rm J}$(1710) is observed and it is found to be dominated by the spin-two helicity-two state. No resonance is observed in the mass region around $2.2 \\,{\\rm GeV}$ and an upper limit of $1.4 \\,{\\rm eV}$ at 95\\% C.L. is derived for the two-photon width times the branching ratio into $\\mbox{K}^0_{\\rm S}\\mbox{K}^0_{\\rm S}$ for the glueball candidate $\\xi(2230)$.

    Differential and channel cross sections and hyperon polarizations are presented for the reactions K/sub L//sup 0/p..-->..K/sub S//sup 0/p, ..pi../sup +/..lambda../sup 0/, and ..pi../sup +/..sigma../sup 0/ at an average beam momentum of 550 MeV/c. These data provide constraints on KN and anti KN amplitudes obtained from charged kaon reactions and reject one of the S=+1,I=0 and one of the S=-1,I=1 phase shift solutions.

    We measured the {sup 41}K thermal neutron absorption and resonance integral cross sections after the irradiation of KNO{sub 3} samples near the core of the IEA-R1 IPEN pool-type research reactor. Bare and cadmium-covered targets were irradiated in pairs with Au-Al alloy flux-monitors. The residual activities were measured by gamma-ray spectroscopy with a HPGe detector, with special care to avoid the {sup 42}K decay {beta}{sup -} emission effects on the spectra. The gamma-ray self-absorption was corrected with the help of MCNP simulations. We applied the Westcott formalism in the average neutron flux determination and calculated the depression coefficients for thermal and epithermal neutrons due to the sample thickness with analytical approximations. We obtained 1.57(4) b and 1.02(4) b, for thermal and resonance integral cross sections, respectively, with correlation coefficient equal to 0.39.

    We have searched for the decay {phi}{yields}K{sup 0}K-bar {sup 0}{gamma}, by detecting K{sub S} pairs plus a photon and with the K{sub S}-mesons decaying to {pi}{sup +}{pi}{sup -}, in a sample of about 1.5x10{sup 9}{phi}-decays collected by the KLOE experiment at DA{phi}NE. The reaction proceeds through the intermediate states f{sub 0}(980){gamma}, a{sub 0}(980){gamma}. We find five events with 3.2 events expected from background processes. We obtain the upper limit: BR({phi}{yields}K{sup 0}K-bar {sup 0}{gamma})<1.9x10{sup -8} at 90% CL.

    A measurement of the double-differential inclusive jet cross section as a function of the jet transverse momentum $p_{\\mathrm{T}}$ and the absolute jet rapidity $|y|$ is presented. Data from LHC proton-proton collisions at $ \\sqrt{s} = $ 8 TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 19.7 fb$^{-1}$, have been collected with the CMS detector. Jets are reconstructed using the anti-$k_{\\mathrm{T}}$ clustering algorithm with a size parameter of 0.7 in a phase space region covering jet $p_{\\mathrm{T}}$ from 74 GeV up to 2.5 TeV and jet absolute rapidity up to $|y|= $ 3.0. The low-$p_{\\mathrm{T}}$ jet range between 21 and 74 GeV is also studied up to $|y|= $ 4.7, using a dedicated data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 5.6 pb$^{-1}$. The measured jet cross section is corrected for detector effects and compared with the predictions from perturbative QCD at next-to-leading order (NLO) using various sets of parton distribution functions (PDF). Cross section ratios to the corresponding measuremen...

    Angular differential electron scattering cross sections are reported for the unresolved inelastic 3s (2)S to 3p (2)P0 h, k transitions in Mg II for the first time. Relative differential cross sections have been measured at 35 eV and 50 eV in the angular range of Theta between 6 and 17 deg using the newly developed electron energy loss technique in a crossed electron-ion beam geometry. Theoretical values have been calculated in a five-state close-coupling approximation in which 3s, 3p, 3d, 4s, and 4p states were included, and to which measurements were normalized at Theta = 12 deg.

    This thesis presents the measurement of energy dependence of the neutrino-nucleon inclusive charged current cross section on an isoscalar target in the range 3-50 GeV for neutrinos and 5-50 GeV energy range for antineutrinos. The data set was collected with the MINOS Near Detector using the wide band NuMI beam at Fermilab. The size of the charged current sample is 1.94 x 10 6 neutrino events and 1.60 x 10 5 antineutrino events. The flux has been extracted using a low hadronic energy sub-sample of the charged current events. The energy dependence of the cross section is obtained by dividing the charged current sample with the extracted flux. The neutrino and antineutrino cross section exhibits a linear dependence on energy at high energy but shows deviations from linear behavior at low energy. We also present a measurement of the ratio of antineutrino to neutrino inclusive cross section

    A measurement of the inclusive ep scattering cross section is presented in the region of low momentum transfers, 0.2 GeV^2 < Q^2 < 12 GeV^2, and low Bjorken x, 5x10^-6 < x < 0.02. The result is based on two data sets collected in dedicated runs by the H1 Collaboration at HERA at beam energies of 27.6 GeV and 920 GeV for positrons and protons, respectively. A combination with data previously published by H1 leads to a cross section measurement of a few percent accuracy. A kinematic reconstruction method exploiting radiative ep events extends the measurement to lower Q^2 and larger x. The data are compared with theoretical models which apply to the transition region from photoproduction to deep inelastic scattering.

    A search for a narrow baryonic state in the pK{sup 0}{sub S} and anti pK{sup 0}{sub S} system has been performed in ep collisions at HERA with the ZEUS detector using an integrated luminosity of 358 pb{sup -1} taken in 2003-2007. The search was performed with deep inelastic scattering events at an ep centre-of-mass energy of 318 GeV for exchanged photon virtuality, Q{sup 2}, between 20 and 100 GeV{sup 2}. Contrary to evidence presented for such a state around 1.52 GeV in a previous ZEUS analysis using a sample of 121 pb{sup -1} taken in 1996-2000, no resonance peak was found in the p(anti p)K{sup 0}{sub S} invariant-mass distribution in the range 1.45-1.7 GeV. Upper limits on the production cross section are set.

    We report on the first measurement of the differential cross section of φ-meson photoproduction for the d(γ,pK + K - )n exclusive reaction channel. The experiment was performed using a tagged-photon beam and the CEBAF Large Acceptance Spectrometer (CLAS) at Jefferson Lab. A combined analysis using data from the d(γ,pK + K - )n channel and those from a previous publication on coherent φ production on the deuteron has been carried out to extract the φ-N total cross section, σ φN . The extracted φ-N total cross section favors a value above 20 mb. This value is larger than the value extracted using vector-meson dominance models for φ photoproduction on the proton.

    The time-integrated $CP$ asymmetry in the decay $D^0 \\to K^0_S K^0_S$ is measured using $3 fb^{-1}$ of proton-proton collision data collected by the LHCb experiment at centre-of-mass energies of 7 and 8 TeV. The flavour of the $D^0$ meson is determined by use of the decay $D^{*+} \\to D^0 \\pi^+$ and its charge conjugate mode. The result is \\[ {\\cal A}_{CP} = -0.029 \\pm 0.052 \\pm 0.022, \\] where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second systematic. The result is consistent with Standard Model expectations and improves the uncertainty with respect to the only previous measurement of this quantity by more than a factor of three.

    From a sample of about 75000 τ decays identified with the ALEPH detector, K0 production in 1-prong hadronic decays is investigated by tagging the KL0 component in a hadronic calorimeter. Results are given for the final states ντh-K0 and ντh-π0K0 where the h- is separated into π and K contributions by means of the dE/ dx measurement in in the central detector. The resulting branching ratios are: ( Bτ → ντπ-K0) = (0.88±0.14±0.09)%, ( Bτ → ντK-K0) = (0.29±0.12±0.03)%, ( Bτ → ντπ-π0K0) = (0.33±0.14±0.07)% aand ( Bτ → ντK0K0) = (0.05±0.05±0.01)%. The K ∗ decay rate in the K0π channel agrees with that in the Kπ0 mode: the combined value for the branching ratio is (Bτ → ν τK ∗-) = (1.45±0.13±0.11)% .

    This thesis describes measurements of the pp{yields}K{sup +}n{sigma}{sup +} reaction near threshold. The work was largely motivated by the lack of data for {sigma}{sup +} hyperon production in pp collisions and, in particular, by recent measurements of pp{yields}K{sup +}n{sigma}{sup +} by the COSY11 collaboration. The experiment performed by this group using a neutron detector reported surprisingly high {sigma}{sup +} cross sections that are hard to reconcile with isospin considerations. The experiment discussed in the thesis has been performed at the ANKE-COSY facility at four close-to-threshold energies. It relies on the almost background-free K{sup +} identification using the delayed-veto technique and the fact that below the threshold for pp{yields}K{sup +}n{lambda}{pi}{sup +} there is no source of the K{sup +}{pi}{sup +} correlations other than the {sigma}{sup +}{yields}n{pi}{sup +} decay. Thus, the detection of K{sup +}{pi}{sup +} pairs allows one to identify the pp{yields}K{sup +}n{sigma}{sup +} reaction without the need for a neutron detector. The analysis of three simultaneously measured spectra has been carried out, searching for any signal from a possible high {sigma}{sup +} cross section. All the K{sup +} production channels allowed at the energy of the experiment contribute to the K{sup +} inclusive and K{sup +}p correlation spectra. In the K{sup +} inclusive distributions, signals from the different production channels are summed and can only be isolated using theoretical models. In the K{sup +}p correlation spectra, there are not only signals from the direct reaction protons but also protons from hyperon decays can be observed. Thus, the signal from {sigma}{sup +}{yields}p{pi}{sup 0} decay contributes to the K{sup +}p missing mass. The study of the K{sup +}{pi}{sup +} correlations allows one to identify the {sigma}{sup +} reaction channels and to estimate the total production cross section. This method has been successfully applied to existing ANKE

    The first observation of the decay $B^0_s \\rightarrow \\overline{D}^0 K^-\\pi^+$ is reported. The analysis is based on a data sample, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $1.0 {\\mbox{fb}^{-1}}$ of $pp$ collisions, collected with the LHCb detector. The branching fraction relative to that of the topologically similar decay $B^0 \\rightarrow \\overline{D}^0 \\pi^+\\pi^-$ is measured to be $$ \\frac{ {\\cal B}\\left(B^0_s \\rightarrow \\overline{D}^0 K^-\\pi^+\\right)}{ {\\cal B}\\left(B^0 \\rightarrow \\overline{D}^0 \\pi^+\\pi^-\\right)} = 1.18 \\pm 0.05\\,\\text{(stat.)} \\pm 0.12\\,\\text{(syst.)} \\, . $$ In addition, the relative branching fraction of the decay $B^0 \\rightarrow \\overline{D}^0 K^+\\pi^-$ is measured to be $$ \\frac{ {\\cal B}\\left(B^0 \\rightarrow \\overline{D}^0 K^+\\pi^-\\right)}{ {\\cal B}\\left(B^0 \\rightarrow \\overline{D}^0 \\pi^+\\pi^-\\right)} = 0.106 \\pm 0.007\\,\\text{(stat.)} \\pm 0.008\\,\\text{(syst.)} \\, . $$

  17. Laser microprobe analyses of Cl, Br, I, and K in fluid inclusions: Implications for sources of salinity in some ancient hydrothermal fluids

    The relative concentrations of Cl, Br, I, and K in fluid inclusions in hydrothermal minerals were measured by laser microprobe noble gas mass spectrometry on irradiated samples containing 10−10 to 10−8 L of fluid. Distinctive halogen signatures indicate contrasting sources of fluid salinity in fluid inclusions from representative “magmatic” (St. Austell), “metamorphic” (Alleghany), and “geothermal” (Creede, Salton Sea) aqueous systems. Br/Cl mol ratios are lowest at Salton Sea (0.27–0.33 × 10−3), where high salinities are largely due to halite dissolution; intermediate at St. Austell (0.85 × 10−3), possibly representative of magmatic volatiles; and highest (near that of seawater) at Creede (1.5–2.1 × 10−3) and Alleghany (1.2–2.4 × 10−3), where dissolved halogens probably were leached from volcanic and (or) nonevaporitic sedimentary rocks. IC1">IC1 mol ratios are lowest (near that of seawater) at Creede (1–14 × 10−6), possibly because organisms scavenged I during low temperature recharge; intermediate at Salton Sea (24–26 × 10−6) and St. Austell (81× 10−6); and highest at Alleghany (320–940 × 10−6), probably because the fluids interacted with organic-rich sediments at high temperatures before being trapped. KCl">KCl mol ratios indicate disequilibrium with respect to hypothetical feldspathic alkali-Al-silicate mineral buffers at fluid inclusion trapping temperatures at Creede, and large contributions of (Na, K)-bicarbonate to total fluid ionic strength at Alleghany. Significant variations in Cl/Br/I/K ratios among different fluid inclusion types are correlated with previously documented mineralization stages at Creede, and with the apparent oxidation state of dissolved carbon at Alleghany. The new data indicate that Cl/ Br/I ratios in hydrothermal fluid inclusions vary by several orders of magnitude, as they do in modern surface and ground waters. This study demonstrates that halogen signatures of fluid inclusions

    Time-integrated $CP$ asymmetries in $D^0$ decays to the final states $K^- K^+$ and $\\pi^- \\pi^+$ are measured using proton-proton collisions corresponding to $3\\mathrm{\\,fb}^{-1}$ of integrated luminosity collected at centre-of-mass energies of $7\\mathrm{\\,Te\\kern -0.1em V}$ and $8\\mathrm{\\,Te\\kern -0.1em V}$. The $D^0$ mesons are produced in semileptonic $b$-hadron decays, where the charge of the accompanying muon is used to determine the initial flavour of the charm meson. The difference in $CP$ asymmetries between the two final states is measured to be \\begin{align} \\Delta A_{CP} = A_{CP}(K^-K^+)-A_{CP}(\\pi^-\\pi^+) = (+0.14 \\pm 0.16\\mathrm{\\,(stat)} \\pm 0.08\\mathrm{\\,(syst)})\\% \\ . \

    Results are presented for the decays of B {yields} J/{psi}{eta}K and B{sup {+-}} {yields} DK{sup {+-}}, respectively, with experimental data collected with BABAR detector at PEP-II, located at Stanford Linear Accelerator Center (SLAC). With 90 x 10{sup 6} B{bar B} events at the {Upsilon}(4S) resonance, we obtained branching fractions of {Beta}(B{sup {+-}} {yields} J/{psi}{eta}K{sup {+-}}) = [10.8 {+-} 2.3(stat) {+-} 2.4(syst)] x 10{sup -5} and {Beta}(B{sup 0} {yields} J/{psi}{eta}K{sub S}{sup 0}) = [8.4 {+-} 2.6(stat) {+-} 2.7(syst)] x 10{sup -5}; and we set an upper limit of {Beta}[B{sup {+-}} {yields} X(3872)K{sup {+-}} {yields} J/{psi}{eta}K{sup {+-}}] < 7.7 x 10{sup -6} at 90% confidence level. The branching fraction of decay chain {Beta}(B{sup {+-}} {yields} DK{sup {+-}} {yields} {pi}{sup +}{pi}{sup -}{pi}{sup 0}K{sup {+-}}) = [5.5 {+-} 1.0(stat) {+-} 0.7(syst)] x 10{sup -6} with 229 x 10{sup 6} B{bar B} events at {Upsilon}(4S) resonance, here D represents the neutral D meson. The decay rate asymmetry is A = 0.02 {+-} 0.16(stat) {+-} 0.03(syst) for this full decay chain. This decay can be used to extract the unitarity angle {gamma}, a weak CP violation phase, through the interference of decay production of D{sup 0} and {bar D}{sup 0} to {pi}{sup +}{pi}{sup -}{pi}{sup 0}.

    The Dalitz plot distribution of $B^0 \\rightarrow \\bar{D}^0 K^+ \\pi^-$ decays is studied using a data sample corresponding to $3.0\\rm{fb}^{-1}$ of $pp$ collision data recorded by the LHCb experiment during 2011 and 2012. The data are described by an amplitude model that contains contributions from intermediate $K^*(892)^0$, $K^*(1410)^0$, $K^*_2(1430)^0$ and $D^*_2(2460)^-$ resonances. The model also contains components to describe broad structures, including the $K^*_0(1430)^0$ and $D^*_0(2400)^-$ resonances, in the $K\\pi$ S-wave and the $D\\pi$ S- and P-waves. The masses and widths of the $D^*_0(2400)^-$ and $D^*_2(2460)^-$ resonances are measured, as are the complex amplitudes and fit fractions for all components included in the amplitude model. The model obtained will be an integral part of a future determination of the angle $\\gamma$ of the CKM quark mixing matrix using $B^0 \\rightarrow \\bar{D}^0 K^+ \\pi^-$ decays.

  2. Review of experimental cross sections for K-shell ionization by light ions

    We review experimental K-shell ionization cross sections using a data file containing about 7800 total X-ray or Auger production cross sections taken from the literature for which Z 1 /Z 2 1 and Z 2 are the atomic numbers of projectile and target. We compare various recent collections of K-shell fluorescence yields ω, and we use Krause's tables to convert the data to ionization cross sections. For every projectile, we normalize these data using the theoretical cross section due to Brandt and Lapicki (ECPSSR). We show them plotted versus log xi (where xi is the scaled projectile velocity) in the appendix, and we average them in equal intervals Δ log xi. A statistical criterion is used to exclude references with discrepant data. We find that the average normalized cross section anti s is mostly close to unity (i.e., ECPSSR describes the data well), but that there are also significant deviations at certain values of xi. For almost all projectiles, anti s decreases below unity for log xi 2 for small and for large log xi. We approximate anti s by analytical functions of log xi and thus produce ''reference'' cross sections for selected proton energies and targets. For heavier projectiles (and also for protons on light targets), additional systematic deviations develop: a maximum of anti s around log xi=-0.6 and a minimum around log xi=-0.3. Above log xi=-0.1, the influence of multiple ionization and of electron capture by the projectile becomes noticeable with increasing Z 1 . X-ray cross sections for light solid or gaseous targets (Z 2 2 >5). (orig.)

    A measurement of the effective $B^0_s \\rightarrow K^+K^-$ lifetime is presented using approximately $37 pb^{-1}$ of data collected by LHCb during 2010. This quantity can be used to put constraints on contributions from processes beyond the Standard Model in the $B_s$ meson system and is determined by two complementary approaches as $\\tau_{B_s\\to K^+K^-} = 1.440 \\pm 0.096 (stat) \\pm 0.008 (syst) \\pm 0.003 (model) ps$.

    Full Text Available K shell X-ray fluorescence cross-sections (σKα, σKβ and σK, and K shell fluorescence yields (ωK of Ti, Ni both in pure metals and in different alloy compositions (TixNi1-x; x = 0.3, 0.4, 0.5, 0.6, 0.7 were measured by using energy dispersive X-ray fluorescence (EDXRF technique. The samples were excited by 22.69 keV X-rays from a 10 mCi Cd-109 radioactive point source and K X rays emitted by samples were counted by a high resolution Si(Li solid-state detector coupled to a 4 K multichannel analyzer (MCA. The alloying effects on the X-ray fluorescence (XRF parameters of Ti-Ni shape memory alloys (SMAs were investigated. It is clearly observed that alloying effect causes to change in K shell XRF parameter values in Ti-Ni based SMAs for different compositions of x. Also, the present investigation makes it possible to perform reliable interpretation of experimental σKα, σKβ and ωK values for Ti and Ni in SMAs and can also provide quantitative information about the changes of K shell X-ray fluorescence cross sections and fluorescence yields of these metals with alloy composition. Keywords: Alloying effect, XRF, K X-ray fluorescence cross-section, K shell fluorescence yield, Shape memory alloy

    We report on a measurement of the inclusive jet cross section in p(bar p) collisions at a center-of-mass energy √s = 1.96 TeV using data collected by the D0 experiment at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 0.70 fb -1 . The data cover jet transverse momenta from 50 GeV to 600 GeV and jet rapidities in the range -2.4 to 2.4. Detailed studies of correlations between systematic uncertainties in transverse momentum and rapidity are presented, and the cross section measurements are found to be in good agreement with next-to-leading order QCD calculations

    We report on a study of charged and neutral K* production in tau decay. We obtain a branching ratio value BR(τ - →K* - ν τ X 0 )=(1.43±0.11±0.13)%, where X 0 designates possible unobserved neutral particles (charge conjugate modes are implicit). We observe the first signals for inclusive K* 0 and anti K* 0 production in τ - decay, and determine the inclusive branching ratios τ - →K* 0 K - ν τ X 0 and τ - anti K* 0 π - ν τ X 0 to be (0.32±0.08±0.12)% and (0.38±0.11±0.13)%, respectively. We have searched for the decay τ - →K 0 K - ν τ X 0 and set a limit of 8x10 -3 at 90% confidence level. (orig.)

    Invariant inclusive cross sections for π + mesons and protons from antipp reactions at 22.4 GeV/c are presented. The average multiplicity for production of π + mesons is 1.92+-0.02 and for protons 0.41+-0.02. Annihilation spectra have been approximated by using the difference between antipp and pp data. The resulting distributions have similar gross features as the total antipp data. (author)

    A search for the B^{0}→K^{+}K^{-} decay is performed using pp-collision data collected by LHCb. The data set corresponds to integrated luminosities of 1.0 and 2.0  fb^{-1} at center-of-mass energies of 7 and 8 TeV, respectively. This decay is observed for the first time, with a significance of more than 5 standard deviations. The analysis also results in an improved measurement of the branching fraction for the B_{s}^{0}→π^{+}π^{-} decay. The measured branching fractions are B(B^{0}→K^{+}K^{-})=(7.80±1.27±0.81±0.21)×10^{-8} and B(B_{s}^{0}→π^{+}π^{-})=(6.91±0.54±0.63±0.19±0.40)×10^{-7}. The first uncertainty is statistical, the second is systematic, the third is due to the uncertainty on the B^{0}→K^{+}π^{-} branching fraction used as a normalization. For the B_{s}^{0} mode, the fourth accounts for the uncertainty on the ratio of the probabilities for b quarks to hadronize into B_{s}^{0} and B^{0} mesons.

    The first physics results from the CPLEAR experiment are presented. The aim is the precise study of CP violation in the neutral kaon system through the measurement of the time dependent decay asymmetries between particles and antiparticles, K 0 and K-bar 0 . The major achievement of this analysis is the first observation of the K 0 -K-bar 0 differential time asymmetry in the π + π - decay channel. (R.P.) 4 refs., 7 figs., 1 tab

    A measurement of the inclusive ep scattering cross section is presented in the region of low momentum transfers, 0.2 GeV 2 ≤Q 2 ≤12 GeV 2 , and low Bjorken x, 5.10 -6 ≤x≤0.02. The result is based on two data sets collected in dedicated runs by the H1 Collaboration at HERA at beam energies of 27.6 GeV and 920 GeV for positrons and protons, respectively. A combination with data previously published by H1 leads to a cross section measurement of a few percent accuracy. A kinematic reconstruction method exploiting radiative ep events extends the measurement to lower Q 2 and larger x. The data are compared with theoretical models which apply to the transition region from photoproduction to deep inelastic scattering. (orig.)

    At the tagged photon beam of the ELSA electron synchrotron at the University of Bonn in Germany the Crystal Barrel and TAPS photon spectrometers have been combined to provide a 4π detector for multi-neutral-particle final states from photonuclear reactions. In a series of experiments on single and multiple neutral meson emission we have concentrated on the hyperon production off the proton, and in particular on the K0Σ+ channel. High-quality excitation function, recoil polarizations, and angular distributions from the KΣ threshold up to 2.3 GeV c.m. energy were obtained. Particular care was taken to establish the cross section normalization. The experimental results are compared with predictions aof a recent coupled-channels calculation within the K-matrix formalism by A. Usov and O. Scholten1.

    Measurements of the effective lifetimes in the B{sub s}{sup 0}→K{sup +}K{sup −}, B{sup 0}→K{sup +}π{sup −} and B{sub s}{sup 0}→π{sup +}K{sup −} decays are presented using 1.0 fb{sup −1} of pp collision data collected at a centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV by the LHCb experiment. The analysis uses a data-driven approach to correct for the decay time acceptance. The measured effective lifetimes are τ{sub B{sub s{sup 0}→K{sup +}K{sup −}}}=1.407±0.016(stat)±0.007(syst) ps, τ{sub B{sup 0}→K{sup +}π{sup −}}=1.524±0.011(stat)±0.004(syst) ps, τ{sub B{sub s{sup 0}→π{sup +}K{sup −}}}=1.60±0.06(stat)±0.01(syst) ps. This is the most precise determination to date of the effective lifetime in the B{sub s}{sup 0}→K{sup +}K{sup −} decay and provides constraints on contributions from physics beyond the Standard Model to the B{sub s}{sup 0} mixing phase and the width difference ΔΓ{sub s}.

    A measurement of the double-differential inclusive jet cross section as a function of jet transverse momentum pT and absolute jet rapidity |y | is presented. The analysis is based on proton-proton collisions collected by the CMS experiment at the LHC at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 {TeV}. The data samples correspond to integrated luminosities of 71 and 44 {pb}^ {-1} for |y |quantum chromodynamics at next-to-leading order precision, complemented with electroweak and nonperturbative corrections, are used to compute the absolute scale and the shape of the inclusive jet cross section. The cross section difference in R, when going to a smaller jet size of 0.4, is best described by Monte Carlo event generators with next-to-leading order predictions matched to parton showering, hadronisation, and multiparton interactions. In the phase space accessible with the new data, this measurement provides a first indication that jet physics is as well understood at √{s}=13 {TeV} as at smaller centre-of-mass energies.

    An angular analysis of the $B^{0}\\rightarrow K^{*0}(\\rightarrow K^{+}\\pi^{-})\\mu^{+}\\mu^{-}$ decay is presented. The dataset corresponds to an integrated luminosity of $3.0\\,{\\mbox{fb}^{-1}}$ of $pp$ collision data collected at the LHCb experiment. The complete angular information from the decay is used to determine $C\\!P$-averaged observables and $C\\!P$ asymmetries, taking account of possible contamination from decays with the $K^{+}\\pi^{-}$ system in an S-wave configuration. The angular observables and their correlations are reported in bins of $q^2$, the invariant mass squared of the dimuon system. The observables are determined both from an unbinned maximum likelihood fit and by using the principal moments of the angular distribution. In addition, by fitting for $q^2$-dependent decay amplitudes in the region $1.1< q^{2} <6.0 \\mathrm{\\,Ge\\kern -0.1em V}^{2}/c^{4}$, the zero-crossing points of several angular observables are computed.

    A search for the $B^{0}\\to K^{+}K^{-}$ decay is performed using $pp$-collision data collected by LHCb. The data set corresponds to integrated luminosities of 1 and 2 fb$^{-1}$ at center-of-mass energies of 7 and 8 TeV, respectively. This decay is observed for the first time, with a significance of more than five standard deviations. The analysis also results in an improved measurement of the branching fraction for the $B_s^0\\to \\pi^+\\pi^-$ decay. The measured branching fractions are $BR(B^0\\to K^+K^-) = (7.80 \\pm 1.27 \\pm 0.81 \\pm 0.21) \\times 10^{-8}$ and $BR(B_s^0\\to\\pi^+\\pi^-) = (6.91 \\pm 0.54 \\pm 0.63 \\pm 0.19 \\pm 0.40) \\times 10^{-7}$. The first uncertainty is statistical, the second is systematic, the third is due to the uncertainty on the $B^0\\to K^+\\pi^-$ branching fraction used as a normalization. For the $B_s^0$ mode, the fourth accounts for the uncertainty on the ratio of the probabilities for $b$ quarks to hadronize into $B_s^0$ and $B^0$ mesons.

    Measurements of the differential production cross sections in transverse momentum and rapidity for B0 mesons produced in pp collisions at sqrt(s) = 7 TeV are presented. The dataset used was collected by the CMS experiment at the LHC and corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 40 inverse picobarns. The production cross section is measured from B0 meson decays reconstructed in the exclusive final state J/Psi K-short, with the subsequent decays J/Psi to mu^+ mu^- and K-short to pi^+ pi^-. The total cross section for pt(B0) > 5 GeV and y(B0) < 2.2 is measured to be 33.2 ± 2.5 ± 3.5 microbarns, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second is systematic.

    A measurement is presented of the inclusive jet cross section using the Midpoint jet clustering algorithm in five different rapidity regions. This is the first analysis which measures the inclusive jet cross section using the Midpoint algorithm in the forward region of the detector. The measurement is based on more than 1 fb-1 of integrated luminosity of Run II data taken by the CDF experiment at the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory. The results are consistent with the predictions of perturbative quantum chromodynamics.

    A binned Dalitz plot analysis of $B^\\pm \\to D K^\\pm$ decays, with $D \\to K^0_{\\rm S} \\pi^+\\pi^-$ and $D \\to K^0_{\\rm S} K^+ K^-$, is performed to measure the $C\\!P$-violating observables $x_{\\pm}$ and $y_{\\pm}$, which are sensitive to the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa angle $\\gamma$. The analysis exploits a sample of proton-proton collision data corresponding to 3.0 fb$^{-1}$ collected by the LHCb experiment. Measurements from CLEO-c of the variation of the strong-interaction phase of the $D$ decay over the Dalitz plot are used as inputs. The values of the parameters are found to be $x_+ = ( -7.7 \\pm 2.4 \\pm 1.0 \\pm 0.4 )\\times 10^{-2}$, $x_- = (2.5 \\pm 2.5 \\pm 1.0 \\pm 0.5) \\times 10^{-2}$, $y_+ = (-2.2 \\pm 2.5 \\pm 0.4 \\pm 1.0)\\times 10^{-2}$, and $y_- = (7.5 \\pm 2.9 \\pm 0.5 \\pm 1.4) \\times 10^{-2}$. The first, second, and third uncertainties are the statistical, the experimental systematic, and that associated with the precision of the strong-phase parameters. These are the most precise measurements of these obs...

    We report the first determination of CP violation parameters from particle-antiparticle asymmetry in the decay of neutral kaons into two charged pions. Observation of such an asymmetry is direct proof of CP violation. A fit to the asymmetry enabled a determination of the parameter η +- to be made, yielding the result vertical strokeη +- vertical stroke=[2.32±0.14(stat.)±0.03(syst.)]x10 -3 and φ +- =42.3deg±4.4deg(stat.)±0.4deg(syst.), with an additional uncertainty of ±1.0deg due to the error on the present published value of Δm, the K L 0 -K S 0 mass difference. The magnitudes of both statistical and systematic errors will be significantly reduced in the future. (orig.)

    The time-integrated C P asymmetry in the decay D"0K_S"0K_S"0 is measured using 3 fb"−"1 of proton-proton collision data collected by the LHCb experiment at centre-of-mass energies of 7 and 8 TeV. The flavour of the D"0 meson is determined by use of the decay D"∗"+→D"0π"+ and its charge conjugate mode. The result is A_C _P=−0.029±0.052±0.022, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second systematic. The result is consistent with Standard Model expectations and improves the uncertainty with respect to the only previous measurement of this quantity by more than a factor of three.

    The method first applied by Good to determine the gravitational mass difference ΔM g between the K 0 and anti K 0 mesons is repeated using recent measurements of the parameters of neutral K meson decays and of the location and mass of the supergalactic centre. The ratio ΔM g /M≤2x10 -13 , which constitutes one of the severest tests of the weak equivalence principle. (orig.)

  4. Photoproduction of the K= K0-(1750)

    While photoproduction has often been advertised as an important environment in which to study light meson spectroscopy, solid experimental results are sparse. In fact, beyond the relatively straightforward photoproduction of the ρ, ω, and ψ mesons, the few results of exclusive photoproduction that do exist are poorly understood, and several, perhaps, have even been misinterpreted. After extensively reviewing the sometimes tenuous history of the exclusive photoproduction of the ''p'(1600),'' the ''ωπ 0 (1250),'' the ''ω(1650),'' and the ''K + K - (1750),'' new results from the E831/FOCUS photoproduction experiment at Fermilab are presented which address the interpretation of the K + K - (1750). This enhancement in low-p T K + K - pairs at a mass near 1750 MeV/c 2 has been observed by several previous photoproduction experiments, but, despite several apparent inconsistencies, it has always been interpreted as the J PC = 1 -- ψ(1680) meson. With nearly two orders of magnitude more events than any previous observation of the K + K - (1750), and based on precise measurements of its mass and width, and its absence from the K*K final state, the FOCUS data can finally render this interpretation implausible. In addition, several steps have been taken towards establishing a new interpretation. Based on limited angular analyses of its decay and the beam energy dependence of its production, they argue that, in the absence of any wild interference scenarios, the K + K - (1750) has J PC ≠ 1 -- , and, in fact, the most likely assignment appears to be 2 ++ . It is hoped that this work can help set the stage for future reevaluations and new insights in photoproduction

    Using 281 fb -1 of data from the Belle experiment recorded at or near the Υ(4S) resonance, we have measured the rates of the ''wrong-sign'' decays D 0K + π - π 0 and D 0K + π - π + π - relative to those of the Cabibbo-favored decays D 0K - π + π 0 and D 0K - π + π + π - . These wrong-sign decays proceed via a doubly Cabibbo-suppressed amplitude or via D 0 -D 0 mixing; the latter has not yet been observed. We obtain R WS (Kππ 0 )=[0.229±0.015(stat) -0.009 +0.013 (syst)]% and R WS (K3π)=[0.320±0.018(stat) -0.013 +0.018 (syst)]%. The CP asymmetries are measured to be -0.006±0.053 and -0.018±0.044 for the K + π - π 0 and K + π - π + π - final states, respectively

    An analysis of $B^0 \\to D K^{*0}$ decays is presented, where $D$ represents an admixture of $D^0$ and $\\overline{D}^0$ mesons reconstructed in four separate final states: $K^-\\pi^+$, $\\pi^-K^+$, $K^+ K^-$ and $\\pi^+\\pi^-$. The data sample corresponds to 3.0 fb$^-1$ of proton-proton collision, collected by the LHCb experiment. Measurements of several observables are performed, including $CP$ asymmetries. The most precise determination is presented of $r_B(DK^{*0})$, the magnitude of the ratio of the amplitudes of the decay $B^0 \\to D K^+ \\pi^-$ with a $b \\to u$ or a $b \\to c$ transition, in a $K \\pi$ mass region of $\\pm 50$ MeV/$c^2$ around the $K^*(892)$ mass and for an absolute value of the cosine of the $K^{*0}$ helicity angle larger than 0.4.

    Time-dependent $CP$ asymmetries in the decay rates of the singly Cabibbo-suppressed decays $D^0\\rightarrow K^-K^+$ and $D^0\\rightarrow \\pi^-\\pi^+$ are measured in $pp$ collision data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3.0 fb$^{-1}$ collected by the LHCb experiment. The $D^0$ mesons are produced in semileptonic $b$-hadron decays, where the charge of the accompanying muon is used to determine the initial state as $D^0$ or $\\bar{D}^0$. The asymmetries in effective lifetimes between $D^0$ and $\\bar{D}^0$ decays, which are sensitive to indirect $CP$ violation, are determined to be $A_{\\Gamma}(K^-K^+) = (-0.134 \\pm 0.077 \\; {}^{+0.026}_{-0.034})$%, $A_{\\Gamma}(\\pi^-\\pi^+) = (-0.092\\pm 0.145 \\; {}^{+0.025}_{-0.033})$%, where the first uncertainties are statistical and the second systematic. This result is in agreement with previous measurements and with the hypothesis of no indirect $CP$ violation in $D^0$ decays.

    1980-01-01

    New experimental results on the A dependence of inclusive hadron scattering are described with emphasis on the projectile fragmentation region. The experiment measured h + A → h' + x, where h was π + , K + , or p; h' was π +- , K +- , or p; and A, the nuclear target, was C, Al, Cu, Ag, or Pb. The experimental apparatus consisted of the Fermilab M6E beam line and the Single Arm Spectrometer Facility. An incident beam of 100 GeV/c was used; the production of fast h' was measured over the transverse momentum range from 0.18 to 0.5. Invariant cross sections are presented and fitted to a power law function in A. For all channels, increasing attenuation as a function of A is seen. Fitted values of fragmentation functions of spectator and wounded quarks are shown for pion-induced reactions. 8 figures

  9. Study of inclusive CP-asymmetries in B0 decays

    2000-01-01

    The object of the present thesis is the search for CP-violating effects in the mixing of neutral B mesons. For this the time-dependent CP asymmetry in the decay of completely inclusively reconstructed B 0 mesons was studied. The basis of the analysis were about 4.1 millions hadronic Z decays, which were token up in the years 1991-1995 with the ALEPH detector at the e + e - storage ring LEP at CERN. From the data b hadron decays were inclusively reconstructed by means of a search for secondary decay vertices. By a fit to the decay-time spectra od identified B 0 and anti B 0 decays the following value of the semileptonic asymmetry in the B d 0 - anti B d 0 system could be determined: a CP =0.016±0.034(stat.)±0.009(syst.). This value can be alternatively interpreted as a measurement of the CP-violating parameter Re ε B : Re εB/(1+ vertical stroke ε B vertical stroke 2 )=0.004±0.009(stat.)±0.002(syst.). Furthermore a combination of the results of this analysis with a further ALEPH measurement was performed. The value of a CP determined from this, which was obtained under regardment of the statistical correlation of both measurements as well as correlated systematic uncertainties, is: a CP =-0.013±0.026. The present result is compatible with the standard model prediction and yields no significant hint to CP violation in the B d 0 - anti B 0 d mixing. (orig.) [de

  11. Inclusive hadron production and two particle correlations in e+e- annihilation at 29 GeV center-of-mass energy

    Shapiro, M.

    1984-12-01

    We have studied hadron production in e + e - annihilation at 29 GeV center-of-mass energy using the PEP-4 Time Projection Chamber Detector. The inclusive cross sections and mean multiplicities for π +- , K +- and (p + anti p) production have been measured using ionization energy loss to separate particle species. We find on average 10.7 +- 0.6 π +- , 1.35 +- .13 K +- and 0.60 +- 0.08 (p + anti p) per multihadron event. The differential cross section is well described by a number of Monte Carlo hadronization models. In addition, we have observed correlations in rapidity space for identified pions and kaons. Short-range KK correlations provide evidence for local flavor compensation during hadronization. Long-range ππ and KK correlations indicate that the initial partons carry flavor. We also observe significant long-range πK correlations as a result of heavy quark decays. 85 references, 67 figures, 11 tables

    We study the decays B - →D 0 π - and B - →D 0 K - , where the D 0 decays into D 0 π 0 , with the D 0 reconstructed in the CP-even (CP+) eigenstates K - K + and π - π + and in the (non-CP) channels K - π + , K - π + π + π - , and K - π + π 0 . Using a sample of about 123x10 6 BB pairs, we measure the ratios of decay rates R non-CP ≡ (B(B - →D non-CP 0 K - )/B(B - →D non-CP 0 π - ))=0.0813±0.0040(stat) -0.0031 +0.0042 (syst), and provide the first measurements of R CP+ ≡ (B(B - →D CP+ 0 K - )/B(B - →D CP+ 0 π - ))=0.086±0.021(stat)±0.007(syst), and of the CP asymmetry A CP+ ≡ (B(B - →D CP+ 0 K - )-B(B + →D CP+ 0 K + )/B(B - →D CP+ 0 K - )+B(B + →D CP+ 0 K + ))=-0.10±0.23 (stat) -0.04 +0.03 (syst).

    The charmless decays B±→K± π+ π- and B±→K± K+ K- are reconstructed using data, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.0  fb(-1), collected by LHCb in 2011. The inclusive charge asymmetries of these modes are measured as ACP(B±→K± π+ π-)=0.032±0.008 (stat)±0.004 (syst)±0.007(J/ψK±) and ACP(B±→K± K+ K-)=-0.043±0.009 (stat)±0.003 (syst)±0.007(J/ψK±), where the third uncertainty is due to the CP asymmetry of the B±→J/ψK± reference mode. The significance of ACP(B±→K± K+ K-) exceeds three standard deviations and is the first evidence of an inclusive CP asymmetry in charmless three-body B decays. In addition to the inclusive CP asymmetries, larger asymmetries are observed in localized regions of phase space.

    A combination is presented of all inclusive deep inelastic cross sections previously published by the H1 and ZEUS collaborations at HERA for neutral and charged current e{sup ±}p scattering for zero beam polarisation. The data were taken at proton beam energies of 920, 820, 575 and 460 GeV and an electron beam energy of 27.5 GeV. The data correspond to an integrated luminosity of about 1 fb{sup -1} and span six orders of magnitude in negative four-momentum-transfer squared, Q{sup 2}, and Bjorken x. The correlations of the systematic uncertainties were evaluated and taken into account for the combination. The combined cross sections were input to QCD analyses at leading order, next-to-leading order and at next-to-next-to-leading order, providing a new set of parton distribution functions, called HERAPDF2.0. In addition to the experimental uncertainties, model and parameterisation uncertainties were assessed for these parton distribution functions. Variants of HERAPDF2.0 with an alternative gluon parameterisation, HERAPDF2.0AG, and using fixed-flavour-number schemes, HERAPDF2.0FF, are presented. The analysis was extended by including HERA data on charm and jet production, resulting in the variant HERAPDF2.0Jets. The inclusion of jet-production cross sections made a simultaneous determination of these parton distributions and the strong coupling constant possible, resulting in α{sub s}(M{sub Z}{sup 2})=0.1183±0.0009(exp)±0.0005(model/parameterisation)±0.00 12(hadronisation){sub -0.0030}{sup +0.0037}(scale). An extraction of xF{sub 3}{sup γZ} and results on electroweak unification and scaling violations are also presented.

    A combination is presented of all inclusive deep inelastic cross sections previously published by the H1 and ZEUS collaborations at HERA for neutral and charged current e{sup ±}p scattering for zero beam polarisation. The data were taken at proton beam energies of 920, 820, 575 and 460 GeV and an electron beam energy of 27.5 GeV. The data correspond to an integrated luminosity of about 1 fb{sup -1} and span six orders of magnitude in negative four-momentum-transfer squared, Q{sup 2}, and Bjorken x. The correlations of the systematic uncertainties were evaluated and taken into account for the combination. The combined cross sections were input to QCD analyses at leading order, next-to-leading order and at next-to-next-to-leading order, providing a new set of parton distribution functions, called HERAPDF2.0. In addition to the experimental uncertainties, model and parameterisation uncertainties were assessed for these parton distribution functions. Variants of HERAPDF2.0 with an alternative gluon parameterisation, HERAPDF2.0AG, and using fixed-flavour-number schemes, HERAPDF2.0FF, are presented. The analysis was extended by including HERA data on charm and jet production, resulting in the variant HERAPDF2.0Jets. The inclusion of jet-production cross sections made a simultaneous determination of these parton distributions and the strong coupling constant possible, resulting in α{sub s} (M{sub Z}{sup 2}) = 0.1183±0.0009(exp)±0.0005(model/parameterisation)±0.0012(hadronisation) {sub -0.0030}{sup +0.0037}(scale).

    An analysis of the decays of $B^\\mp \\rightarrow D K^\\mp$ and $B^\\mp \\rightarrow D \\pi^\\mp $ is presented in which the $D$ meson is reconstructed in the three-body final states $K^\\mp \\pi^\\pm \\pi^0$, $\\pi^+ \\pi^- \\pi^0$ and $K^+ K^- \\pi^0$. Using data from LHCb corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3.0~fb$^{-1}$ of $pp$ collisions, measurements of several $CP$ observables are performed. First observations are obtained of the suppressed ADS decay $B^\\mp \\rightarrow [\\pi^\\mp K^\\pm \\pi^0]_D \\pi^\\mp$ and the quasi-GLW decay $B^\\mp \\rightarrow [K^+ K^- \\pi^0]_D \\pi^\\mp$. The results are interpreted in the context of the unitarity triangle angle $\\gamma$ and related parameters.

    This thesis presents the measurement of the time-integrated CP asymmetries in D 0K - K + and D 0 →π - π + decays. The analysis uses data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3 fb -1 collected at the LHCb experiment in proton-proton collision at centre-of-mass energies of 7 TeV and 8 TeV. The D 0 mesons are produced in semileptonic b-hadron decays, where the charge of the accompanying muon determines the initial flavour of the D 0 meson. By taking the difference of the observed asymmetries in the selected D 0K - K + and D 0 →π - π + samples, production and detection asymmetries cancel. The difference in CP asymmetries between the two final states is measured to be ΔA CP =A CP (K - K + )-A CP (π - π + )=(+0.14±0.16(stat)±0.08(syst ))%. In order to obtain a measurement of A CP (K - K + ), large samples of Cabibbo-favoured D meson decays are used to determine production and detection asymmetries to a high precision. The CP asymmetry is found to be A CP (K - K + )=(-0.06±0.15(stat)±0.10(syst))%, where the correlation coefficient between ΔA CP and A CP (K - K + ) is ρ=0.28. By combining these results, the CP asymmetry in decays D 0 → π - π + is derived to be A CP (π - π + )=(-0.20±0.19(stat)±0.10(syst))%. The results of this thesis show that there is no significant CP violation in D 0K - K + and D 0 →π - π + decays at the level of 10 -3 .

    A precise determination of the effective $B_s^0 \\rightarrow K^+ K^-$ lifetime can be used to constrain contributions from physics beyond the Standard Model in the $B_s^0$ meson system. Conventional approaches select $B$ meson decay products that are significantly displaced from the $B$ meson production vertex. As a consequence, $B$ mesons with low decay times are suppressed, introducing a bias to the decay time spectrum which must be corrected. This analysis uses a technique that explicitly avoids a lifetime bias by using a neural network based trigger and event selection. Using 1.0~fb$^{-1}$ of data recorded by the LHCb experiment, the effective $B_s^0 \\rightarrow K^+ K^-$ lifetime is measured as $1.455 \\pm 0.046 \\; \\mathrm{(stat.)} \\pm 0.006 \\; \\mathrm{(syst.)} \\, \\mathrm{ps}.$

    By analyzing 2.93 fb(-1) data collected at the center-of-mass energy root s = 3.773 GeV with the BESIII detector, we measure the absolute branching fraction of the semileptonic decay D+ -> (K) over bar (0)e(+)nu(e) to be B(D (+) -> (K) over bar (0)e(+)nu(e)) = (8.59 +/- 0.14 +/- 0.21)% using (K)

    Full Text Available In this work, the piezoelectric ceramic system of the (1-x(Na0.5K0.5NbO3 - xBi(Na0.83K0.17TiO3 with composition close to the morphotropic phase boundary is studied. (Na0.5K0.5NbO3 with 0∼5 mole% Bi(Na0.83K0.17TiO3 has been prepared following the conventional mixed oxide process. The effect of sintering time on the properties of 0.97(Na0.5K0.5NbO3-0.03Bi(Na0.83K0.17TiO3 ceramics is discussed. For 0.97(Na0.5K0.5NbO3-0.03Bi(Na0.83K0.17TiO3 ceramics, the electromechanical coupling coefficients of the thickness mode kt and the piezoelectric constant d33 reach 0.46 and 155 p/CN, respectively, at the sintering of 1100 °C for 3 h. Dielectric and piezoelectric properties have maximum values at the sintering temperature of 1100 °C for 5 h. For 0.97(Na0.5K0.5NbO3 -0.03Bi(Na0.83K0.17TiO3 ceramics, the electromechanical coupling coefficients of the thickness mode kt and the piezoelectric constant d33 reach 0.56 and 190, respectively, at the sintering of 1100 °C for 5 h. The effect of prolonging the sintering time to the 0.97(Na0.5K0.5NbO3-0.03Bi(Na0.83K0.17TiO3 system is a helpful method on ceramic processing to improve densification and properties.

    In a high statistics CERN 2 m bubble chamber experiment the different cross sections and polarizations of the Lambda for the reactions K/sup -/p to Lambda pi /sup 0/, Lambda eta , lambda eta ' at 4.2 GeV/c have been measured. The reaction K/sup -/p to Lambda eta exhibits a pronounced dip around -t approximately 0.5 (GeV/c)/sup 2/ and all three reactions show a significant backward peaking (-u<1.0 (GeV/c) /sup 2/). The Lambda polarization in the reaction K/sup -/p to Lambda pi /sup 0/ is measured to be significantly different from zero throughout most of the available t-range. Forward cross sections enable a determination of R/sub T/, the ratio of singlet/octet coupling eta /sub 1/KK**/ eta /sub 8/KK**. Backward cross sections are utilized to estimate the effective eta -nucleon coupling constant g /sub eta NN//sup 2/ over the -u range 0-1.5 (GeV/c)/sup 2/. (14 refs).

    Inclusive jet and dijet cross sections have been measured in proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV using the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. The cross sections were measured using jets clustered with the anti-kT algorithm with parameters R=0.4 and R=0.6. These measurements are based on the 2010 data sample, consisting of a total integrated luminosity of 37 inverse picobarns. Inclusive jet double-differential cross sections are presented as a function of jet transverse momentum, in bins of jet rapidity. Dijet double-differential cross sections are studied as a function of the dijet invariant mass, in bins of half the rapidity separation of the two leading jets. The measurements are performed in the jet rapidity range |y|<4.4, covering jet transverse momenta from 20 GeV to 1.5 TeV and dijet invariant masses from 70 GeV to 5 TeV. The data are compared to expectations based on next-to-leading order QCD calculations corrected for non-perturbative effects, as well as to next-t...

    We have studied inclusive muon events using all the data collected by the TOPAZ detector at √(s)=58GeV with an integrated luminosity of 273pb -1 . From 1328 inclusive muon events, we measured the ratio R q anti q of the cross section for q anti q production to the total hadronic cross section and forward-backward asymmetry A FB q for b and c quarks. The obtained results are R b anti b =0.13±0.02(stat)±0.01(syst), R c anti c =0.36±0.05(stat)±0.05(syst), A FB b =-0.20±0.16(stat)±0.01(syst) and A FB c =-0.17±0.14(stat)±0.02(syst), in fair agreement with a prediction of the standard model.

    X-ray fluorescence cross sections are calculated for the major x rays of the K series 5 less than or equal to Z less than or equal to 101, and the three L series 12 less than or equal to Z less than or equal to 101 in the energy range 1 to 200 keV. This calculation uses Scofield's theoretical partical photoionization cross sections, Krause's evaluation of fluorescence and Coster-Kronig yields, and Scofield's theoretical radiative rates. Values are presented in table and graph format, and an estimate of their accuracy is made. The following x rays are considered: Kα 1 , Kα 1 , 2 , Kβ 1 , Kβ 1 , 3 , Lα 1 , Lα 1 , 2 , Lβ 1 , Lβ 2 , 15 , Lβ 3 , Ll, Lγ 1 , Lγ 4 , and L 1 → L 2 , 3 . For use in x-ray fluorescence analysis, Kα and Lα fluorescence cross sections are presented at specific energies: TiK identical with 4.55 keV, CrK identical with 5.46 keV, CoK identical with 7.00 keV, CuK identical with 8.13 keV, MoKα identical with 17.44 keV, AgK identical with 22.5 keV, DyK identical with 47.0 keV, and 241 Am identical with 59.54 keV. Supplementary material includes fluorescence and Coster--Kronig yields, fractional radiative rates, fractional fluorescence yields, total L-shell fluorescence cross sections, fluorescence and Coster-Kronig yields in condensed matter, effective fluorescence yields, average L-shell fluorescence yield, L-subshell photoionization cross section ratios, and conversion factors from barns per atom to square centimeters per gram

    A measurement of the inclusive ep scattering cross section is presented in the region of low momentum transfers, 0.2 GeV{sup 2}{<=}Q{sup 2}{<=}12 GeV{sup 2}, and low Bjorken x, 5.10{sup -6}0.02. The result is based on two data sets collected in dedicated runs by the H1 Collaboration at HERA at beam energies of 27.6 GeV and 920 GeV for positrons and protons, respectively. A combination with data previously published by H1 leads to a cross section measurement of a few percent accuracy. A kinematic reconstruction method exploiting radiative ep events extends the measurement to lower Q{sup 2} and larger x. The data are compared with theoretical models which apply to the transition region from photoproduction to deep inelastic scattering. (orig.)

    A measurement of the inclusive deep-inelastic neutral current e+p scattering cross section is reported in the region of four-momentum transfer squared, 12<=Q^2<=150 GeV^2, and Bjorken x, 2x10^-4<=x<=0.1. The results are based on data collected by the H1 Collaboration at the ep collider HERA at positron and proton beam energies of E_e=27.6 GeV and E_p=920 GeV, respectively. The data are combined with previously published data, taken at E_p=820 GeV. The accuracy of the combined measurement is typically in the range of 1.3-2%. A QCD analysis at next-to-leading order is performed to determine the parton distributions in the proton based on H1 data.

  9. About oscillations in the system of K0 mesons

    This work considers K 0 -, K 0 bar - meson mixings and oscillations via K 1 0 , K 2 0 - meson states at strangeness violation by the weak interactions and K 1 0 -, K 2 0 - meson mixings and oscillations via K S -, K L - meson states at CP violation by the weak interactions without and with taking into account decay widths. We work in the framework of the masses mixing scheme. It is shown that K 1 0 -(K S -) meson states appear at big distances from the K 0 -mesons source after their decays (τ L ≥ τ S (τ 2 ≥τ 1 )) due to oscillations of residual K 2 0 (K L ) mesons and then again we see short-living K 1 0 (K S ) mesons. It is implied that K L ↔K S meson oscillations are absent. The case is also considered when at CP violation unitarity is violated, but orthogonality of K S , K L states remains. The general expressions for probabilities of meson oscillations (transitions) are given

    We report the exclusive photoproduction cross sections for the Σ0(1385), Λ(1405), and Λ(1520) in the reactions γ+p→K++Y* using the CLAS detector for energies from near the respective production thresholds up to a center-of-mass energy W of 2.85 GeV. The differential cross sections are integrated to give the total exclusive cross sections for each hyperon. Comparisons are made to current theoretical models based on the effective-Lagrangian approach and fit to previous data. The accuracy of these models is seen to vary widely. The cross sections for the Λ(1405) region are strikingly different for the Σ+π-, Σ0π0, and Σ-π+ decay channels, indicating the effect of isospin interference, especially at W values close to the threshold.

    Identical neutral kaon pair correlations are measured in $\\sqrt{s}$=7 TeV pp collisions in the ALICE experiment. One-dimensional K$^{0}_{s}$-K$^{0}_{s}$ correlation functions in terms of the invariant momentum difference of kaon pairs are formed in two multiplicity and two transverse momentum ranges. The femtoscopic parameters for the radius and correlation strength of the kaon source are extracted. The fit includes quantum statistics and final-state interactions of the $a_0/f_0$ resonance. K$^{0}_{s}$-K$^{0}_{s}$ correlations show an increase in radius for increasing multiplicity and a slight decrease in radius for increasing transverse mass, $m_T$, as seen in pion-pion correlations in the pp system and in heavy-ion collisions. Transverse mass scaling is observed between the K$^{0}_{s}$-K$^{0}_{s}$ and pion-pion radii. Also, the first observation is made of the decay of the $f_{2}'$(1525) meson into the K$^{0}_{s}$-K$^{0}_{s}$ channel in pp collisions.

    A study of $B_c^+\\to K^+K^-\\pi^+$ decays is performed for the first time using data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3.0 $\\mathrm{fb}^{-1}$ collected by the LHCb experiment in $pp$ collisions at centre-of-mass energies of $7$ and $8$ TeV. Evidence for the decay $B_c^+\\to\\chi_{c0}(\\to K^+K^-)\\pi^+$ is reported with a significance of 4.0 standard deviations, resulting in the measurement of $\\frac{\\sigma(B_c^+)}{\\sigma(B^+)}\\times\\mathcal{B}(B_c^+\\to\\chi_{c0}\\pi^+)$ to be $(9.8^{+3.4}_{-3.0}(\\mathrm{stat})\\pm 0.8(\\mathrm{syst}))\\times 10^{-6}$. Here $\\mathcal{B}$ denotes a branching fraction while $\\sigma(B_c^+)$ and $\\sigma(B^+)$ are the production cross-sections for $B_c^+$ and $B^+$ mesons. An indication of $\\overline b c$ weak annihilation is found for the region $m(K^-\\pi^+)<1.834\\mathrm{\\,Ge\\kern -0.1em V\\!/}c^2$, with a significance of 2.4 standard deviations.

    A combination is presented of the inclusive diffractive cross section measurements made by the H1 and ZEUS Collaborations at HERA. The analysis uses samples of diffractive deep inelastic scattering data where leading protons are detected by dedicated spectrometers. Correlations of systematic uncertainties are taken into account by the combination method, resulting in improved precision.

    We report on a measurement of CP-violating asymmetries (A CP ) in the Cabibbo-suppressed D 0 → π + π - and D 0K + K - decays reconstructed in a data sample corresponding to 5.9 fb -1 of integrated luminosity collected by the upgraded Collider Detector at Fermilab. We use the strong decay D* + → D 0 π + to identify the flavor of the charmed meson at production and exploit CP-conserving strong c(bar c) pair-production in p(bar p) collisions. High-statistics samples of Cabibbo-favored D 0K - π + decays with and without a D* ± tag are used to correct for instrumental effects and significantly reduce systematic uncertainties. We measure A CP (D 0 → π + π - ) = (+0.22 ± 0.24(stat) ± 0.11 (syst))% and A CP (D 0K + K - ) = (-0.24 ± 0.22 (stat) ± 0.09 (syst))%, in agreement with CP conservation. These are the most precise determinations from a single experiment to date. Under the assumption of negligible direct CP violation in D 0 → π + π - and D 0K + K - decays, the results provide an upper limit to the CP-violating asymmetry in D 0 mixing, |A CP ind (D 0 )| < 0.13% at the 90% confidence level.

    We introduce a new kind of jet function: the semi-inclusive jet function J_i(z,ω_J,μ), which describes how a parton i is transformed into a jet with a jet radius R and energy fraction z=ω_J/ω, with ω_J and ω being the large light-cone momentum component of the jet and the corresponding parton i that initiates the jet, respectively. Within the framework of Soft Collinear Effective Theory (SCET) we calculate both J_q(z,ω_J,μ) and J_g(z,ω_J,μ) to the next-to-leading order (NLO) for cone and anti-k_T algorithms. We demonstrate that the renormalization group (RG) equations for J_i(z,ω_J,μ) follow exactly the usual DGLAP evolution, which can be used to perform the ln R resummation for inclusive jet cross sections with a small jet radius R. We clarify the difference between our RG equations for J_i(z,ω_J,μ) and those for the so-called unmeasured jet functions J_i(ω_J,μ), widely used in SCET for exclusive jet production. Finally, we present applications of the new semi-inclusive jet functions to inclusive jet production in e"+e"− and pp collisions. We demonstrate that single inclusive jet production in these collisions shares the same short-distance hard functions as single inclusive hadron production, with only the fragmentation functions D_i"h(z,μ) replaced by J_i(z,ω_J,μ). This can facilitate more efficient higher-order analytical computations of jet cross sections. We further match our ln R resummation at both LL_R and NLL_R to fixed NLO results and present the phenomenological implications for single inclusive jet production at the LHC.

    Results on cross sections, longitudinal and transverse momentum distributions for ksub(s)sup(o), Λ and anti Λ production in 360 GeV/c PP interactions are presented as obtained from EHS equipped with the Rapid Cycling Bubble Chamber (RCBC). The Λ and anti Λ polarization are measured. The cross sections for the diffractive components are given using the recoil spectrum. The data are discussed with respect to charm production. The study on inclusive production of strange meson and baryon resonances is presented. Results on cross sections for K**(892), K* - (892), Σ + (1385) and Σ - (1285). Longitudinal and transverse momentum distributions for K*(892) and Σ(1385) are presented as well as for their induced Ksup(o's) and Λsup('s). An estimation is given on the K*(1430) and Σ* - (1915) productions. (author)

    The inclusive cross section for large psub(T) π 0 production near 90 0 in p-p collisions at the CERN ISR is presented for centre-of-mass energies 30.7, 53.1 and 62.4 GeV. The data are inconsistent with scaling of the form psup(-n)sub(T)F(xsub(T)), with constant n or with n allowed to depend on xsub(T)=2psub(T)/√s. For √s=53.1 and 62.4 GeV, the value of n found for 3.5< psub(T)<7.0 GeV/c is n=8.0+-0.5, in agreement with previous experiments. However, for 7.5< psub(T)<14.0 GeV/c the value becomes n=5.1+-0.4.

    We study the B 0 decay to D 0 anti D 0 K 0 based on the chiral unitary approach, which generates the X(3720) resonance, and we make predictions for the D 0 anti D 0 invariant mass distribution. From the shape of the distribution, the existence of the resonance below threshold could be induced. We also predict the rate of production of the X(3720) resonance to the D 0 anti D 0 mass distribution with no free parameters. (orig.)

    The purpose of this thesis was to use Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) to separate $\\mu^{\\prime}$s and $\\pi^{\\prime}$s for use in increasing the acceptance rate of $\\mu^{\\prime}$s below the implemented 75cm track length cut in the Charged Current Inclusive (CC-Inclusive) event selection for the CC-Inclusive Cross-Section Measurement. In doing this, we increase acceptance rate for CC-Inclusive events below a specific momentum range.

  1. K sup + nucleus total cross sections

    The scattering of K{sup +} mesons from nuclei has attracted considerable interest in the last few years. The K{sup +} holds a very special position as the weakest of all strongly interaction probes. The average cross section is not larger than about 10 mb at lab momenta below 800 MeV/c, corresponding to a mean free path in the nucleus larger than 5 fm. Thus the K{sup +} is capable of probing the entire volume of the nucleus. Single scattering of the K{sup +} with a nucleon in the nucleus dominates the nuclear scattering, and only small and calculable higher order corrections are needed. The nucleon is a dynamical entity and its internal structure can, in principle, be altered by its surrounding nuclear environment. This work reports an experiment in which the K{sup +} is used to compare the nucleon in the nucleus with a free nucleon.

    A binned Dalitz plot analysis of $B^\\pm \\to D K^\\pm$ decays, with $D\\to K_\\text{S}^0\\pi^+\\pi^-$ and $D\\to K_\\text{S}^0K^+K^-$, is used to perform a measurement of the CP-violating observables $x_{\\pm}$ and $y_{\\pm}$, which are sensitive to the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa angle $\\gamma$. The analysis is performed without assuming any $D$ decay model, through the use of information on the strong-phase variation over the Dalitz plot from the CLEO collaboration. Using a sample of proton-proton collision data collected with the LHCb experiment in 2015 and 2016, and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 2.0$\\,\\text{fb}^{-1}$, the values of the CP violation parameters are found to be $x_- = ( 9.0 \\pm 1.7 \\pm 0.7 \\pm 0.4) \\times 10^{-2}$, $y_- = ( 2.1 \\pm 2.2 \\pm 0.5 \\pm 1.1) \\times 10^{-2}$, $x_+ = (- 7.7 \\pm 1.9 \\pm 0.7 \\pm 0.4) \\times 10^{-2}$, and $y_+ = (- 1.0 \\pm 1.9 \\pm 0.4 \\pm 0.9) \\times 10^{-2}$.

    Measurements have been made of the inclusive reactions: pp→LAMBDA 0 +x, and pp→anti LAMBDA 0 +x, pp→exactly equal to - +x, pp→SIGMA+-(1385)+x) at equivalent laboratory moments of 1500 GeV/c (√s=53 GeV) and 2100 GeV/c (√s=62 GeV) at the CERN Intersecting Storage Rings (ISR). An estimate of the total LAMBDA 0 and anti LAMBDA 0 inclusive cross sections is presented. The measured data are extrapolated to x = 0 using √s = 44 GeV CERN Intersecting Storage Ring results. The cross sections for LAMBDA 0 and anti LAMBDA 0 are found to be 4.42 +- 0.18 mb and 1.17 +- 0.40 mb at 1500 GeV/c and 4.72 +- 0.18 mb. and 1.37 +- 0.48 mb at 2100 GeV/c respectively. The total exactly equal to - inclusive cross section in the region x > 0.4 is found to be. In addition, results are presented of searches for reactions: pp →(LAMBDA 0 anti LAMBDA 0 ) +x and pp→(LAMBDA 0 LAMBDA 0 )+x. Pair production of LAMBDA 0 anti LAMBDA 0 with x > 0.6 is measured to be 1.7 +-/0.2μb, while LAMBDA 0 LAMBDA 0 cross section in the same x range is less than 1.0 +- 0.1 μb

Data on the inclusive production of pi /sup +or-/, K/sup +or-/, p, and p, at low transverse momenta over an angular range of 29 degrees to 90 degrees in the centre-of-mass system and for centre-of-mass energies square root s=31 and 53 GeV. 2. Results from a search for massive particles at 62.5 degrees in the laboratory, square root s=53 GeV-in particular, cross-sections for the production of deuterons and antideuterons are given. 3. Data on inclusive charged particle production of high transverse momentum P/sub T/ between 1.5 and 4.4 GeV/c, at centre-of- mass angles 59.4 degrees and 90 degrees , square root s=44 and 53 GeV. In addition, preliminary measurements have been made at square root s =31 and 44 GeV of pi /sup +or-/, K/sup +or-/, p, and p production ratios at 90 degrees for p/sub T/ between 2.0 and 3.5 GeV.c.

    The reactions γp→K + Lambda and γp→K + Σ 0 were measured in the energy range from threshold up to a photon energy of 2.6 GeV. The data were taken with the SAPHIR detector at the electron stretcher facility ELSA. Results on cross sections and hyperon polarizations are presented as a function of kaon production angle and photon energy. The total cross section for Λ production shows a strong treshold enhancement wehreas the Σ 0 data have a maximum at about E γ =1.45 GeV. Cross sections together with their angular decompositions into Legendre polynomials suggest contributions from resonance production for both reactions. The K + Λ differential cross section is enhanced for backward produced kaons at E γ ∼1.45 GeV. This might be interpreted as contribution of a so called missing resonance D 13 (1895). In general, the induced polarization of Λ has negative values in the kaon forward direction and positive values in the backward direction. The magnitude varies with energy. The polarization of Σ 0 follows a similar angular and energy dependence as that of Λ, but with opposite sign. (orig.)

    An analysis of the production of Ksub(s)/sup 0/Ksub(s)/sup 0/ and Ksup(+-)Ksub (s)/sup 0/..pi..sup(-+) by two quasi-real photons is presented. The cross section for ..gamma gamma..->K/sup 0/ anti K/sup 0/, which is given for the ..gamma gamma.. invariant mass range from K anti K threshold to 2.5 GeV, is dominated by the f'(1,525) resonance and an enhancement near the K anti K threshold. Upper limits on the product of the two-photon width times the branching ratio into K anti K pairs are given for THETA(1,700), h(2,030), and zeta(2,220). For exclusive two-photon production of Ksup(+-)Ksub(s)/sup 0/..pi..-+ no significant signal was observed. Upper limits are given on the cross section of ..gamma gamma..->K/sup +/ anti K/sup 0/..pi../sup -/ or K/sup -/K/sup 0/..pi../sup +/ between 1.4 and 3.2 GeV and on the product of the ..gamma gamma.. width times the branching ratio into the Kanti K..pi.. final states for the etasub(c)(2,980) and the iota(1,440), yielding GAMMA(..gamma gamma..->iota(1,440)) . BR(iota(1,440)-> K anti K..pi..) < 2.2keV at 95% C.L.

    Harmony and cultural inclusiveness are two basic principles highly advocated by the Silk Road Spirit.In response to the urgent appeal to cultivating cross-cultural adaptation,essential concepts and models of acculturation theory have been discussed and possible strategies proposed.It is concluded that integration contributes to implementing positive adaptation to the host culture,whilst multiculturalism helps to facilitate mutual exchange between Chinese and foreign cultures.Specific suggestions are further documented in order to mimmize misunderstanding and conflicts in cross-cultural communication.

    The CPLEAR experiment at CERN measured the CP and CPT violation parameters and determined in a direct way the T violation. The results allow the determination of the CPT violation parameters in the neutral kaon mixing with a precision better than a few 10 -4 . The mass equality between K 0 and K-tilde 0 is tested down to the level of 10 -19 GeV. In addition, physics on a scale close to the Planck mass is probed for the first time

    The resonant substructure of B(s)(0) → D(0)K(-)π(+) decays is studied using a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3.0 fb(-1) of pp collision data recorded by the LHCb detector. An excess at m(D(0)K(-))≈ 2.86 GeV/c(2) is found to be an admixture of spin-1 and spin-3 resonances. Therefore, the D(sJ)*(2860)(-) state previously observed in inclusive e(+)e(-) → D(0)K(-)X and pp → D(0)K(-)X processes consists of at least two particles. This is the first observation of a heavy flavored spin-3 resonance, and the first time that any spin-3 particle has been seen to be produced in B decays. The masses and widths of the new states and of the D(s2)*(2573)(-) meson are measured, giving the most precise determinations to date.

    Reports results of an experiment studying the reaction pi /sup -/p to K/sub s//sup 0/K/sup -/p at incident pion momenta of 22.4 and 23.9 GeV /c performed using the Brookhaven Mark 1 Spectrometer. Determines the A/sub 2//sup -/ mass spectrum in the t' regions 00.29 (GeV/c)/sup 2/. Observes no two-peak structure and finds that an overall CERN MMS dipole-type fit is rejected by 8 standard deviations. Shows that the differential cross section data are well fitted by Ate/sup bt/ with b equivalent to 7.0 (GeV/c)/sup -2/ and that the total cross sections for pi /sup -/p to A/sub 2//sup -/p are sigma =2.6+or-0.4 mu b and 2.5+or-0.4 mu b at 22.4 and 23.9 GeV/c respectively.

    The first observation of the $\\overline{B}^0 \\rightarrow J/\\psi K^{+}K^{-}$ decay is presented with a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.0 $\\rm fb^{-1}$ of $pp$ collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 7 TeV collected with the LHCb detector. The branching fraction is measured to be $\\mathcal{B}(\\overline{B}^0 \\rightarrow J/\\psi K^{+}K^{-}) = (2.53\\pm 0.31 \\pm 0.19)\\times 10^{-6}$, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second is systematic. An amplitude analysis of the final state in the $\\overline{B}^0 \\rightarrow J/\\psi K^{+}K^{-}$ decay is performed to separate resonant and nonresonant contributions in the $K^{+}K^{-}$ spectrum. Evidence of the $a_0(980)$ resonance is reported with statistical significance of 3.9 standard deviations. The corresponding product branching fraction is measured to be $\\mathcal{B}(\\overline{B}^0 \\rightarrow J/\\psi a_0(980),~a_0(980)\\rightarrow K^{+}K^{-})=(4.70\\pm3.31\\pm0.72)\\times10^{-7}$, yielding an upper limit of $\\mathcal{B}(\\ov...

    It is shown that starting from the pomeron contribution with intercept P (0) > 1 one can obtain in a quasi-eikonal approach inclusive cross section which is similar to contribution of triple pole (at t = 0) pomeron. Generalizing this analogy we consider tripole and dipole pomeron contributions to inclusive cross section. They lead to hni / ln3 s (tripole) or hni / ln2 s (dipole) and describe well the data on charged hadron distributions in ¯pp. Predictions of one particle pt and rapidity distributions for LHC energies are given.

  14. A study of time-dependent CP-violating asymmetries in B0->J/psiK0S and B0->psi(2S)K0S decays

    Barrera, Barbara

    2000-10-16

    We present a preliminary measurement of time-dependent CP-violating asymmetries in B{sup 0} {yields} J/{psi} K{sub S}{sup 0} and B{sup 0} {yields} {psi}(2S)K{sub S}{sup 0} decays recorded by the BABAR detector at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy B Factory at SLAC. The data sample consists of 9.0 fb{sup -1} collected at the {Upsilon}(4S) resonance and 0.8 fb{sup -1} off-resonance. One of the neutral B mesons, produced in pairs at the {Upsilon}(4S), is fully reconstructed. The flavor of the other neutral B meson is tagged at the time of its decay, mainly with the charge of identified leptons and kaons. A neural network tagging algorithm is used to recover events without a clear lepton or kaon tag. The time difference between the decays is determined by measuring the distance between the decay vertices. Wrong-tag probabilities and the time resolution function are measured with samples of fully-reconstructed semileptonic and hadronic neutral B final states. The value of the asymmetry amplitude, sin2{beta}, is determined from a maximum likelihood fit to the time distribution of 120 tagged B{sup 0} {yields} J/{psi} K{sub S}{sup 0} and B{sup 0} {yields} {psi}(2S) K{sub S}{sup 0} candidates to be sin2{beta} = 0.12 {+-} 0.37(stat) {+-} 0.09(syst) (preliminary).

    We report on the measurement of inclusive muon and b quark production by the D0 collaboration in p bar p collisions at √s = 1.8 TeV at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider. The results represent a refined analysis of the previously published 1992--93 data. We measure the muon cross section due to b quark decays over the kinematic range 4 T μ μ | T μ > 6 GeV/c and |y b | < 1.0

    Using a large sample of photoproduced charm mesons from the FOCUS experiment at Fermilab (FNAL-E831), we observe the decay D0-->K+pi- with a signal yield of 149+/-31 events compared to a similarly cut sample consisting of 36 760+/-195 D0-->K-pi+ events. We use the observed ratio of D0-->K+pi- to D0-->K-pi+ (0.404+/-0.085+/-0.025)% to obtain a relationship between the D0 mixing and doubly Cabibbo suppressed decay parameters.

    The anti K 0 π - system produced in the reaction K - p→anti K 0 π - p at 4.2 GeV/c is studied using high-statistics bubble-chamber data. The spin-parity structure is analyzed as a function of the anti K 0 π - mass up to 1.52 GeV. Production of K*(890) and K*(1420) is observed in helicity-0 and helicity-1 states. Contributions of natural and unnatural parity exchange are present. Considerable S-wave production is observed over the whole mass region considered. The t' dependence of the K*(890) and K*(1420) amplitudes is also studied. A comparison of the results on K*(890) production with the results of an analysis of charge-exchange K*(890) production, allows the separation of I=0 and I=1 exchange amplitudes. Some qualitative remarks are made concerning K*(1420) production. (Auth.)

    At its core the political push for full inclusion models of special education delivery derives from the belief that inclusion provides equal access, equitable distribution of resources and increased social opportunity to children. This study focused upon the evolution of special education programming within a pre-K to sixth grade elementary school…

  1. Proposed experiment addressing CP and CPT violation in the K0-K-bar0 system

    International Nuclear Information System (INIS)

    Dunietz, I.; Hauser, J.; Rosner, J.L.

    1987-01-01

    An experiment utilizing the decay phi→K/sub S/K/sub L/ is proposed for measuring the ratio ε'/ε of CP-violating parameters in the kaon system. It appears one can probe values of ε'/ε down to 10/sup -3/ with 10 9 phi's. An asymmetry measurement of the relative times of π + π - and π 0 π 0 decays is capable of testing the phase difference phi/sub +-/-phi/sub 00/ to +- 1.6 0 (3σ), with 10/sup 10/ phi's. Far fewer phi's (perhaps 10 8 ) can be useful in constraining some parameters of the kaon system associated with CPT violations

    A first observation of the decay $B_s^0 \\rightarrow \\phi \\bar{K}^{*0}$ is reported from an analysis based on a data sample, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.0 fb$^{-1}$ of $pp$ collisions at $\\sqrt{s} = 7 TeV$, collected with the LHCb detector. A yield of $30 \\pm 6$ $B_s^0 \\to (KK)(K\\pi)$ candidates is found in the mass windows $1012.5 < M(KK) < 1026.5 MeV/c^2$ and $746 < M(K\\pi)< 1046 MeV/c^2$, corresponding to a signal significance of 6.1 standard deviations. The candidates are found to be dominated by $B_s^0 \\rightarrow \\phi \\bar{K}^{*0}$ decays, and the branching fraction is measured to be $BF( B_s^0 \\rightarrow \\phi \\bar{K}^{*0} ) = (1.10 \\pm 0.24 (stat) \\pm 0.14 (syst) \\pm 0.08 (f_d/f_s ) ) \\times 10^{-6}$, where the uncertainties are statistical, systematic and from the ratio of fragmentation fractions $f_d/f_s$ which accounts for the different production rate of $B^0$ and $B_s^0$ mesons.

    De Corte, F.

    2000-01-01

    A discussion is held on mutual influences and interactions between k 0 - and (relative) comparator-type NAA. Examples are given concerning: (1) the application of comparator-type NAA in the quality control/quality assurance of the IRMM-530 Al-0.1%Au neutron flux monitor developed for use in k 0 -NAA, (2) the utilization of the k 0 -method of calibration as a tool for the quality assurance of comparator-type NAA (3) the introduction of corrections for detection efficiency and true-coincidence (of primordial importance in k 0 -NAA) in comparator-type NAA, (4) the development of k 0 -type standardization for use in prompt gamma neutron activation analysis, and (5) the renewal of insights in the traceability of k 0 - and comparator-type NAA.

    2003-01-01

    The authors present preliminary measurements of B meson decays to B + → ωπ + , B + → ωK + , and B 0 → ωK 0 . The data were recorded with the BABAR detector and correspond to 88.9 x 10 6 B(bar B) pairs produced in e + e - annihilation at the Υ(4S) resonance. They find statistically significant signals for all three channels: Β(B + → ωπ + ) = (5.4 ± 1.0 ± 0.5) x 10 -6 , Β(B + → ωK + ) = (5.0 ± 1.0 ± 0.4) x 10 -6 , and Β(B 0 → ωK 0 ) = (5.3 -1.2 +1.4 ± 0.5) x 10 -6 . They also measure time-integrated charge asymmetries Α ch (B + → ωπ + ) = 0.04 ± 0.17 ± 0.01 and Α ch (B + → ωK + ) = -0.05 ± 0.16 ± 0.01

    Using a sample of 3.7 x 10{sup 6} upsilon(4S) --> B anti-B events collected with the BaBar detector at the PEP-II storage ring, the authors search for the electroweak penguin decays B{sup +} --> K{sup +}e{sup +}e{sup {minus}}, B{sup +} --> K{sup +}mu{sup +}mu{sup {minus}},B{sup 0} --> K*{sup 0} e{sup +}e{sup {minus}}, and B{sup 0} --> K*{sup 0}mu{sup +}mu{sup {minus}}. The authors observe no significant signals for these modes and set preliminary 90% C.L. upper limits of: beta(B{sup +} --> K{sup +}e{sup +}e{sup {minus}}) < 12.5 x 10{sup {minus}6}; beta(B{sup +} --> K{sup +}mu{sup +}mu{sup {minus}}) < 8.3 x 10{sup {minus}6}; beta(B{sup 0} --> K*{sup 0}e{sup +}e{sup {minus}}) < 24.1 x 10{sup {minus}6}; and beta(B{sup 0} --> K*{sup 0}mu{sup +}mu{sup {minus}}) < 24.5 x 10{sup {minus}6}.

  6. Partonic transverse motion in unpolarized semi-inclusive deep inelastic scattering processes

    Boglione, M.; Melis, S.; Prokudin, A.

    2011-01-01

    We analyze the role of partonic transverse motion in unpolarized semi-inclusive deep inelastic scattering processes. Imposing appropriate kinematical conditions, we find some constraints which fix an upper limit to the range of allowed k perpendicular values. We show that, applying these additional requirements on the partonic kinematics, we obtain different results with respect to the usual phenomenological approach based on the Gaussian smearing with analytical integration over an unlimited range of k perpendicular values. These variations are particularly interesting for some observables, like the h > azimuthal modulation of the unpolarized semi-inclusive deep inelastic scattering cross section or the average transverse momentum of the final, detected hadron.

  7. Measurement of branching ratios and CP asymmetries for the decays B{sup 0}{yields}{pi}{sup +}{pi}{sup -}, B{sup 0}{yields}K{sup +}{pi}{sup -}, B{sup 0}{yields}K{sup +}K{sup -}

    We present measurements of the branching fractions and CP violation parameters for the decay channels B{sup 0}{yields}{pi}{sup +}{pi}{sup -}, B{sup 0}{yields}K{sup +}{pi}{sup -} and B{sup 0}{yields}K{sup +}K{sup -}. The final Belle dataset of 772 million B anti B pairs produced at the {Upsilon}(4S) resonance at the KEKB asymmetric-energy e{sup +}e{sup -} collider is used. For the branching fractions, we obtain B(B{sup 0}{yields}{pi}{sup +}{pi}{sup -})=(5.63{+-} 0.16(stat){+-} 0.16(syst)) x 10{sup -6}, B(B{sup 0}{yields}K{sup {+-}}{pi}{sup -+})=(18.71{+-}0.25(stat){+-} 0.37(syst)) x 10{sup -6}, B(B{sup 0}{yields}K{sup +}K{sup -})<14 x 10{sup -8} at 90% CL. For the CP-asymmetries, we obtain following values: A{sub CP}(B{sup 0}{yields}{pi}{sup +}{pi}{sup -})=0.33{+-}0.06(stat){+-}0.03 (syst), S{sub CP}(B{sup 0}{yields}{pi}{sup +}{pi}{sup -})=-0.64{+-}0.08(stat){+-}0.03(syst), A{sub CP}(B{sup 0}{yields}K{sup {+-}}K{sup -+})=-0.061{+-}0.014(stat){+-}0.008 (syst), where A{sub CP} and S{sub CP} represent direct and mixing-induced CP violation, respectively. For the CP-violating weak phase {phi}{sub 2} we exclude the region 23.8 <{phi}{sub 2}<66.8 at the 1{sigma} level. A model independent test of new physics using a sum rule in the K{pi} system yields a mild deviation from the standard model of -0.289{+-}0.139(stat){+-}0.064(syst) with a 1.9{sigma} significance.

  8. K+ nucleus total cross section experiment and nuclear medium effects

    1992-11-01

    The low momentum K + is the weakest of the available strongly interacting particles. It has a mean bee path in nuclear matter of about 6 fm which makes it a good probe for studying properties of the nuclear interior. It allows one to build a good microscopic optical potential which can be used to calculate K + nucleus elastic and total cross sections. In the latter case the calculated ratio R T =[σ tot (K + A)/A]/[σ tot (K + d)/2] can be expected to be more reliable because some uncertainties in K + N phase shifts will cancel. This ratio can also be measured more reliably than the total cross sections themselves because of cancellation of some systematic errors. We measured the total cross sections of K + on D, 6 Li, 12 C, 28 Si and 40 Ca from 488 to 714 MeV/c. The emphasis was placed on extracting values of R T with a precision of better than 2 percent. The total cross section ratios are found to lie significantly above those predicted by optical potential calculations with the usual nuclear medium corrections. This suggests that novel phenomena are taking place within the nucleus. Several models which incorporate such phenomena are discussed, including nucleon 'swelling', mass rescaling, nuclear pions, and relativistic effects. (author) 31 refs., 27 figs., 21 tabs.,

  9. Extraction of the strong coupling constant from the measurement of inclusive multijet event cross-sections in pp collisions at center of mass energy of 8 TeV

    CERN Document Server

    Kaur, Anterpreet

    2017-01-01

    A measurement of inclusive multijet event cross sections is presented from proton-proton collisions recorded at 8 TeV with the CMS detector and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 19.7/fb. Jets are reconstructed with the anti-kt clustering algorithm for a jet size parameter R=0.7 in a phase space region ranging up to jet transverse momenta pT of 2.0 TeV and rapidity of IyI lt 2.5. The inclusive 2-jet and 3-jet event cross sections are measured as a function of the average pT of the two leading jets. The results are compared to fixed-order predictions of perturbative QCD and to simulations using various Monte Carlo event generators including parton showers, hadronisation, and multiparton interactions. A fit of the strong coupling constant is performed with the ratio of the 3-jet over 2-jet event cross section.

    A measurement of the inclusive deep-inelastic neutral current e{sup +}p scattering cross section is reported in the region of four-momentum transfer squared, 12 GeV{sup 2} {<=} Q{sup 2} {<=} 150 GeV{sup 2}, and Bjorken x, 2. 10{sup -4} {<=} x {<=}0.1. The results are based on data collected by the H1 Collaboration at the ep collider HERA at positron and proton beam energies of E{sub e}=27.6 GeV and E{sub p}=920 GeV, respectively. The data are combined with previously published data, taken at E{sub p} = 820 GeV. The accuracy of the combined measurement is typically in the range of 1.3-2%. A QCD analysis at next-to-leading order is performed to determine the parton distributions in the proton based on H1 data. (orig.)

    The product of the $\\Lambda_b^0$ ($\\overline{B}^0$) differential production cross-section and the branching fraction of the decay $\\Lambda_b^0\\rightarrow J/\\psi pK^-$ ($\\overline{B}^0\\rightarrow J/\\psi\\overline{K}^*(892)^0$) is measured as a function of the beauty hadron transverse momentum, $p_{\\rm T}$, and rapidity, $y$. The kinematic region of the measurements is $p_{\\rm T}<20~{\\rm GeV}/c$ and $2.0 < y < 4.5$. The measurements use a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $3~{\\rm fb}^{-1}$ collected by the LHCb detector in $pp$ collisions at centre-of-mass energies $\\sqrt{s}=7~{\\rm TeV}$ in 2011 and $\\sqrt{s}=8~{\\rm TeV}$ in 2012. Based on previous LHCb results of the fragmentation fraction ratio, $f_{\\Lambda_B^0}/f_d$, the branching fraction of the decay $\\Lambda_b^0\\rightarrow J/\\psi pK^-$ is measured to be \\begin{equation*} \\mathcal{B}(\\Lambda_b^0\\rightarrow J/\\psi pK^-)= (3.04\\pm0.04\\pm0.06\\pm0.33^{+0.43}_{-0.27})\\times10^{-4}, \\end{equation*} where the first uncertainty is st...

    The $\\overline{B_s^0} \\rightarrow \\chi_{c2} K^+ K^- $ decay mode is observed and its branching fraction relative to the corresponding $\\chi_{c1}$ decay mode, in a $\\pm 15 \\textrm{MeV}/c^2$ window around the $\\phi$ mass, is found to be $$\\frac{\\mathcal{B}(\\overline{B_s^0} \\rightarrow \\chi_{c2} K^+ K^-) }{ \\mathcal{B}(\\overline{B_s^0} \\rightarrow \\chi_{c1} K^+K^-)} = (17.1 \\pm 3.1 \\pm 0.4 \\pm 0.9)\\%,$$ where the first uncertainty is statistical, the second systematic and the third due to the knowledge of the branching fractions of radiative $\\chi_c$ decays. The decay mode $\\overline{B_s^0} \\rightarrow \\chi_{c1} K^+ K^- $ allows the $ B_s^0$ mass to be measured as $$m(B_s^0) = 5366.83 \\pm 0.25 \\pm 0.27 \\, \\textrm{MeV}/c^2,$$ where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second systematic.

    An investigation of the total and triple Regge inclusive cross-sections is carried out using a critical pomeron in the framework of reggeon field theory with thresholds. For a model with P and the conventional P' and ω poles, the rise of the total cross-section cannot be accounted for. However, in a model with a single dual-unitarization type vacuum singularity and the ω pole, the data can be adequately described

    A search for CP violating effects in the mixing of neutral B mesons is performed using a sample of 4.1 million hadronic Z decays collected with the ALEPH detector from 1991 to 1995. By studying time-dependent asymmetries in flavour-tagged samples of semileptonic and fully inclusive b-hadron decays, two measurements of the semileptonic asymmetry a_cp are extracted. No evidence for CP violation is observed, and the combined value a_cp = -0.013 +- 0.026 is obtained.

    First observations of the Cabibbo suppressed decays $\\bar{B}^0\\to D^+K^-\\pi^+\\pi^-$ and $B^-\\to D^0K^-\\pi^+\\pi^-$ are reported using 35~pb$^{-1}$ of data collected with the LHCb detector. Their branching fractions are measured with respect to the corresponding Cabibbo favored decays, from which we obtain ${\\cal{B}}(\\bar{B}^0\\to D^+K^-\\pi^+\\pi^-)/{\\cal{B}}(\\bar{B}^0\\to D^+\\pi^-\\pi^+\\pi^-)=(5.9\\pm1.1\\pm0.5)\\times10^{-2}$ and ${\\cal{B}}(B^-\\to D^0K^-\\pi^+\\pi^-)/{\\cal{B}}(B^-\\to D^0\\pi^-\\pi^+\\pi^-)=(9.4\\pm1.3\\pm0.9)\\times10^{-2}$, where the uncertainties are statistical and systematic, respectively. The $B^-\\to D^0K^-\\pi^+\\pi^-$ decay is particularly interesting, as it can be used in a similar way to $B^-\\to D^0K^-$ to measure the CKM phase $\\gamma$.

    A combination is presented of the inclusive deep inelastic cross sections measured by the H1 and ZEUS Collaborations in neutral and charged current unpolarised ep scattering at HERA during the period 1994-2000. The data span six orders of magnitude in negative four-momentum-transfer squared, Q^2, and in Bjorken x. The combination method used takes the correlations of systematic uncertainties into account, resulting in an improved accuracy. The combined data are the sole input in a NLO QCD analysis which determines a new set of parton distributions HERAPDF1.0 with small experimental uncertainties. This set includes an estimate of the model and parametrisation uncertainties of the fit result.

    The direct $C\\!P$ asymmetries of the decays $B^0 \\rightarrow K^{*0} \\mu^+ \\mu^-$ and $B^+ \\rightarrow K^{+} \\mu^+ \\mu^-$ are measured using $pp$ collision data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3.0$\\mbox{fb}^{-1}$ collected with the LHCb detector. The respective control modes $B^0 \\rightarrow J/\\psi K^{*0}$ and $B^+ \\rightarrow J/\\psi K^{+}$ are used to account for detection and production asymmetries. The measurements are made in several intervals of $\\mu^+ \\mu^-$ invariant mass squared, with the $\\phi(1020)$ and charmonium resonance regions excluded. Under the hypothesis of zero $C\\!P$ asymmetry in the control modes, the average values of the asymmetries are \\begin{align} {\\cal A}_{C\\!P}(B^0 \\rightarrow K^{*0} \\mu^+ \\mu^-) &= -0.035 \\pm 0.024 \\pm 0.003, \\cr {\\cal A}_{C\\!P}(B^+ \\rightarrow K^{+} \\mu^+ \\mu^-) &= \\phantom{-}0.012 \\pm 0.017 \\pm 0.001, \\end{align} where the first uncertainties are statistical and the second are due to systematic effects. Both measurements are consistent with t...

    As part of the standardization program of k 0 -based NAA (k 0 -NAA) methods at the Dalhousie University SLOWPOKE-2 reactor (DUSR) facility, the k 0 -factors of 15 analytically important short-lived nuclides (half-life 197 Au). The elemental standards used were prepared mostly from their primary standard solutions. The samples were irradiated in both inner and outer pneumatic sites of the DUSR facility and counted using an HPGe-detector coupled to an ORTEC’s digital gamma-ray spectrometer. The k 0 -factors determined using both inner and outer irradiation sites were found to be within ±5% with respect to either recommended or literature values in most cases. The Z-score values at 95% confidence level were found to be in the range of ±0.03–1.6. The k 0 -NAA method was applied to three different NIST standard reference materials (SRMs) and concentrations of six elements, namely Ag, F, Hf, Rb, Sc, and Se were determined using their short-lived nuclides. The concentrations of these elements were also determined by relative NAA method for comparison purposes.

    An analysis of B{sup +}→K{sub S}{sup 0}π{sup +} and B{sup +}→K{sub S}{sup 0}K{sup +} decays is performed with the LHCb experiment. The pp collision data used correspond to integrated luminosities of 1 fb{sup −1} and 2 fb{sup −1} collected at centre-of-mass energies of √(s)=7 TeV and √(s)=8 TeV, respectively. The ratio of branching fractions and the direct CP asymmetries are measured to be B(B{sup +}→K{sub S}{sup 0}K{sup +})/B(B{sup +}→K{sub S}{sup 0}π{sup +})=0.064±0.009 (stat.)±0.004 (syst.), A{sup CP}(B{sup +}→K{sub S}{sup 0}π{sup +})=−0.022±0.025 (stat.)±0.010 (syst.) and A{sup CP}(B{sup +}→K{sub S}{sup 0}K{sup +})=−0.21±0.14 (stat.)±0.01 (syst.). The data sample taken at √(s)=7 TeV is used to search for B{sub c}{sup +}→K{sub S}{sup 0}K{sup +} decays and results in the upper limit (f{sub c}⋅B(B{sub c}{sup +}→K{sub S}{sup 0}K{sup +}))/(f{sub u}⋅B(B{sup +}→K{sub S}{sup 0}π{sup +}))<5.8×10{sup −2} at 90% confidence level, where f{sub c} and f{sub u} denote the hadronisation fractions of a b{sup ¯} quark into a B{sub c}{sup +} or a B{sup +} meson, respectively.

    A search is performed for the charmless three-body decays of the $\\Lambda_b^0$ and $\\Xi_b^0$ baryons to the final states $\\Lambda h^+h^{\\prime -}$, where $h^{(\\prime)} = \\pi$ or $K$. The analysis is based on a data sample, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $3 \\rm fb^{-1}$ of $pp$ collisions, collected by the LHCb experiment. The $\\Lambda_b^0 \\to \\Lambda K^+\\pi^-$ and $\\Lambda_b^0 \\to \\Lambda K^+K^-$ decays are observed for the first time and their branching fractions and $CP$ asymmetry parameters are measured. Evidence is seen for the $\\Lambda_b^0 \\to \\Lambda \\pi^+\\pi^-$ decay and limits are set on the branching fractions of $\\Xi_b^0$ baryon decays to the $\\Lambda h^+h^{\\prime -}$ final states.

  2. Space, energy and anisotropy effects on 238U effective capture cross sections in the resonance region

    Agreement between calculations and measurements within prescribed limits of error is always the test of engineering design analysis. Large and puzzling discrepancies do exist between several measured and calculated important integral reactor parameters. A thorough and exhaustive investigation of the methods used in reactor analysis revealed that in the generation of effective resonance cross sections no anisotropy effects are considered in the resonances. This is true in the integral transport and fundamental-mode codes. The neglect of anisotropy introduces errors at two levels: (1) the effective group cross sections such as σsub(c), σsub(f) and σsub(s); and (2) the diffusion coefficients and P 1 and higher components of the scattering cross sections. The study showed that the inclusion of linear scattering anisotropy increases, in general, the cell effective capture cross section of 238 U in both ZPR-6/5 and TRX-3 reactors. The increase was up to 2% in TRX-3 and 0.5% in ZPR-6/5. The effect on the multiplication factor was -0.003% Δk/k for ZPR-6/5 and -0.05% Δk/k for TRX-3. (author)

  3. Neutral strange particle production and inelastic cross section in p-bar+Ta reaction at 4 GeV/c

    The inclusive production of K/sub s//sup 0/, /Lambda/ Lambda-bar, and K/sub s//sup 0//Lambda/in the p-barTa reaction at 4 GeV/c was measured and compared with that in the p-barp reaction. The total inelastic and topological cross sections were also measured. The number of /Lambda/s produced in the p-barTa reaction was 11.3 times larger than that expected from the geometrical cross section, which is defined as A/sup 2/3/ times the cross section for the p-barp reaction. The yield ratio Lambda-bar//Lambda/was found to be 2 x 10/sup -2/. These values cannot be accounted for by a straightforward extension of the p-barN reaction. Besides, a correlation of 2 vees like K/sub s//sup 0/-/Lambda/could not prove their simultaneous production. Nuclear temperatures of 135 and 97 MeV were obtained from the kinetic energy spectra of K/sub s//sup 0/ and /Lambda/ respectively. The kinematical characteristics of the K/sub s//sup 0/ and /Lambda/produced were analyzed in terms of the fireball model

    The inclusive eta production cross section at the CERN ISR has been measured for psub(T) values of up to 11 GeV/c. It is found that the eta/π 0 cross-section ratio has an average value of 0.55 +- 0.07 and varies little with psub(T). (Auth.)

    The inclusive production of pi /sup +or-/ in proton-proton collisions has been measured for the transverse momentum range 0.15 to 1.0 GeV/c over an angular range of 29 degrees to 89 degrees in the centre-of- mass system and for centre-of-mass energies square root s=30.6 and 52.8 GeV. For each energy the invariant cross-section for fixed transverse momentum was found to increase by about 15% as the centre- of-mass rapidity decreases from 1 to 0, i.e. the 'central plateau' has not yet been reached.

    A measurement of the helicity dependence of the total inclusive photoabsorption cross section on the deuteron was carried out at MAMI (Mainz) in the energy range 200 γ <800 MeV. The experiment used a 4π detection system, a circularly polarized tagged photon beam and a frozen spin target which provided longitudinally polarized deuterons. These new results are a significant improvement on the existing data and allow a detailed comparison with state-of-the-art calculations

  8. R-matrix analysis of 235U neutron transmission and cross sections in the energy range 0 to 2.25 keV

    This document describes a new R-matrix analysis of 235 U cross section data in the energy range from 0 to 2,250 eV. The analysis was performed with the computer code SAMMY, that has recently been updated to permit, for the first time, inclusion of both differential and integral data within the analysis process. Fourteen differential data sets and six integral quantities were used in this evaluation: two measurements of fission plus capture, one of fission plus absorption, six of fission alone, two of transmission, and one of eta, plus standard values of thermal cross sections for fission, capture, and scattering, and of K1 and the Westcott g-factors for both fission and absorption. An excellent representation was obtained for the high-resolution transmission, fission, and capture cross-section data as well as for the integral quantities. The result is a single set of resonance parameters spanning the entire range up to 2,250 eV, a decided improvement over the present ENDF/VI evaluation, in which eleven discrete resonance parameter sets are required to cover that same energy range. This new evaluation is expected to greatly improve predictability of the criticality safety margins for nuclear systems in which 235 U is present

    Using an integrated luminosity of 0.69 fb$^{-1}$ collected by LHCb in 2011, we report measurements of direct and mixing-induced CP violation in $B^0 \\to \\pi^+\\pi^-$ and $B_s^0 \\to K^+K^-$ decays. The measurements of the $B^0 \\to \\pi^+\\pi^-$ asymmetries are compatible with those from the B factories and yield 3.2$\\sigma$ evidence of mixing-induced CP violation, whereas the $B^0_s \\to K^+ K^-$ asymmetries are measured for the first time ever.

    Inclusive production of the f_0(980), f_2(1270) and \\phi(1020) resonances has been studied in a sample of 4.3 million hadronic Z^0 decays from the OPAL experiment at LEP. A coupled channel analysis has been used for the f_0 in simultaneous fits to the resonances in inclusive \\pi+\\pi- and K+K- mass spectra. Fragmentation functions are reported for the three states. Total inclusive rates are measured to be 0.141 +/- 0.007 +/- 0.011 f_0, 0.155 +/- 0.011 +/- 0.018 f_2, and 0.091 +/- 0.002 +/- 0.003 \\phi mesons per hadronic Z^0 decay. The production properties of the f_0, including those in three-jet events, are compared with those of the f_2 and \\phi, and with the Lund string model of hadron production. All measurements are consistent with the hypothesis that the f_0 is a conventional qq(bar) scalar meson.

    We report the results of the CPLEAR experiment on CP-, T- and CPT- symmetries in the neutral kaon system. CPLEAR has experimentally determined, for the first time, the violation of T invariance by a direct method using semileptonic decays. The CPT symmetry is tested through the parameters re( delta ) with a precision of a few 10/sup -4/ and Im( delta ), from the Bell-Steinberger relation, with a precision of 10/sup -5/. This allows the mass equality between the K /sup 0/ and K/sup 0/ to be tested down to the level of 10/sup -19/ Ge V. (11 refs).

    QCD fits to combined inclusive deep inelastic scattering cross sections in neutral and charged current e{sup ±}p are presented. The measurements used for fits cover six orders of magnitude in Q{sup 2} and Bjorken x and correspond to a luminosity of about 1 fb{sup -1}. Within the QCD analysis at NLO (VFNS) parton distribution functions and some electroweak quantities were extracted.

    The effects of ball milling parameters, namely, the ball-to-powder mass ratio and milling speed, on the synthesis of (K0.5Na0.5)NbO3 nanopowders by high-energy ball milling method from a stoichiometric mixture containing Na2CO3, K2CO3, and Nb2O5 were investigated in this paper. The results indicated that the single crystalline phase of (K0.5Na0.5)NbO3 was received in as-milled samples synthesized using optimized ball-to-powder mass ratio of 35 : 1 and at a milling speed of 600 rpm for 5 h. In the optimized as-milled samples, no remaining alkali carbonates that can provide the volatilizable potassium-containing species were found and (K0.5Na0.5)NbO3 nanopowders were readily obtained via the formation of an intermediate carbonato complex. This complex was mostly transformed into (K0.5Na0.5)NbO3 at temperature as low as 350°C and its existence was no longer detected at spectroscopic level when calcination temperature crossed over 700°C.

    A preliminary measurement of the ratio of branching ratios BR(B + → J/ψK + )/BR(B 0 → J/ψK 0 ) and BR(B + → J/ψK + )/BR(B + → J/ψK *+ ) is made by fully reconstructing each mode, where J/ψ → μ + μ - , K *+ → K 0 s π + and K 0 s → π + π - . The data were taken with the CDF detector during the 1993 run. The total integrated luminosity is ∼ 20pb -1 resulting in a sample of about 170 J/ψK ± , 50 J/ψK 0 S and 25 J/ψK *± candidate events. The results will be reported

    We report on a preliminary measurement of the inclusive dimuon cross section in pp-bar collisions at √ s = 1.8 TeV using the DΦ detector at the Fermilab Tevatron. From these results, we extract the inclusive b-quark production cross section for the kinematic range |y b | bmin T < 25 GeV / c. The difference in azimuthal angle in the transverse plane for dimuon pairs from bb-bar production is also shown. (author). 10 refs., 6 figs

    The first observation of the decay $\\bar{B}^0_s \\to D^0 K^{*0}$ using $pp$ data collected by the LHCb detector at a centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 36 pb$^{-1}$, is reported. A signal of $34.4 \\pm 6.8$ events is obtained and the absence of signal is rejected with a statistical significance of more than nine standard deviations. The $\\bar{B}^0_s \\to D^0 K^{*0}$ branching fraction is measured relative to that of $\\bar{B}^0 \\to D^0 \\rho^0$: $\\frac{{\\cal B}(\\bar{B}^0_s \\to D^0 K^{*0})}{{\\cal B}(\\bar{B}^0 \\to D^0 \\rho^0)} = 1.48 \\pm 0.34 \\pm 0.15 \\pm 0.12$, where the first uncertainty is statistical, the second systematic and the third is due to the uncertainty on the ratio of the $B^0$ and $B^0_s$ hadronisation fractions.

    The time-dependence of the decay rate of initially pure K/sup 0/ into the final state ( pi /sup +/ pi /sup -/ pi /sup 0/) has been studied in search for the decay K/sup 0//sub S/ to pi /sup +/ pi /sup -/ pi /sup 0/. No evidence is found in a sample of 384 observed events. The ratio of the CP-violating K/sup 0//sub S/ amplitude and the K/sup 0 //sub L/ amplitude is eta /sub +-0/=(0.13(+0.17-0.20))+i(0.17 (+0.27-0.26)); the ratio of the CP-conserving K/sup 0//sub S/ amplitude and K/sup 0//sub L/ amplitude is mod rho mod <0.4. The energy dependence of the K/sup 0/ to pi /sup +/ pi /sup -/ pi /sup 0/ matrix element is found to be a/sub +-0/=-0.31+or-0.03. (12 refs).

    This report can be subdivided into two main parts. The first part concerns the reconstruction program which has been developed to analyse the data taken with the large solid angle detector SAPHIR which is in operation at the Bonn electron accelerator facility ELSA. A survey on this program is given and some improvements as well as the efficiency concerning real data are discussed. The subject of the second part concerns the measurements of the reactions γp→K + Λand γp→K + Σ 0 . The analysis of a sample of data taken with the SAPHIR in June 1992 is discussed in detail. As a result of this analysis total and differential cross sections as well as the recoil polarization for the two processes are presented. In particular the first measurement of the Σ 0 polarization in photoproduction can be reported. (orig.)

    The B^0_s differential production cross section is measured as functions of the transverse momentum and rapidity in pp collisions at sqrt(s) = 7 TeV, using the J/Psi phi decay, and compared with predictions based on perturbative QCD calculations at next-to-leading order. The data sample, collected by the CMS experiment at the LHC, corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 40 inverse picobarns. The B^0_s is reconstructed from the decays J/Psi to an oppositely charged muon pair and phi to K+ K-. The integrated B^0_s cross section times B^0_s to J/Psi phi branching fraction in the range 8 < pt(B) < 50 GeV/c and |y(b)| < 2.4 is measured to be 6.9 +/- 0.6 +/- 0.6 nb, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second is systematic.

    Precision measurements of direct and mixing-induced $C\\!P$-violating observables in neutral $B^0_s$-meson decays are amongst the most promising ways to look for signs of new physics in the flavour sector. The $C\\!P$-violating phase $\\phi_s$, which arises in the interference between the amplitudes of direct $B^0_s$-meson decay and the decay after oscillation in $b \\to q\\bar{q}s$ transitions, is particularly interesting because the Standard Model expectation for its value is both very small and precise. In this talk, an overview of the current experimental status and latest developments in this area will be presented, notably including a novel LHCb measurement of $\\phi_s$ performed for the first time ever using the $B^0_s \\to (K^+\\pi^-)(K^-\\pi^+)$ decay. This decay proceeds via a $b \\to d\\bar{d}s$ transition, which can only occur at loop level in the Standard Model, thus providing a sensitive probe for new physics.

    The CPLEAR experiment at CERN measures particle-antiparticle asymmetries of strangeness-tagged K 0 , K 0 decays to two-pion, three-pion, and semileptonic final states. The technique of CPLEAR is an alternative approach to previous CP-violation studies. It provides complementary information with different systematics and gives access to novel measurements. The precision of the CP-violation parameters η +- for π + π - , η +-0 for π + π - π 0 and of the T-violation parameter ε T for π ± e minus-plus ν will be discussed for the data taken between 1990--1992. copyright 1995 American Institute of Physics

    Complete text of publication follows. The k 0 method of neutron activation analysis (k 0 -NAA) has become a well-established analytical tool for elemental analysis of various samples since its introduction in mid-1970s. To strengthen its development, applications and use, a series of regular workshops dedicated to this particular analytical method has been introduced twenty-five years ago, held in Astene, Belgium (1992); Ljubljana, Slovenia (1996); Bruges, Belgium (2001); Funchal, Portugal (2005); Belo Horizonte, Brazil (2009) and Budapest, Hungary (2013). The 7th k 0 -Users' Workshop was held at Hotel Novotel Montreal Centre, Canada, 3-8 September 2017. The meeting was organized by Polytechnique Montreal in cooperation with the International Atomic Energy Agency. Twenty-seven participants from 16 different countries (Australia, Austria, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, Czech Republic, Egypt, Germany, Hungary, Italy, Jamaica, Peru, Slovenia, the Netherlands, Turkey, Vietnam) from all five continents discussed the latest developments and applications of k 0 -NAA. Thirty-three papers were presented in the following sessions: Fundamentals of k 0 -NAA, Nuclear Data, Neutron Flux Parameters, k 0 -NAA Methodology, Validation of k 0 -NAA, Facilities, Automatization, and k 0 -NAA Methodology and PGAA. The talks included presentations by two Keynote Speakers and one Honorary Speaker. During the workshop, scientific visits were paid to the SLOWPOKE NAA Laboratory and Thermal Hydraulics Laboratory of the Polytechnique Montreal. The upcoming 12 papers in this issue of the Journal of Radioanalytical and Nuclear Chemistry were selected to be published from the workshop. The next, 8th k 0 -Users' Workshop is expected to be held in Ljubljana, Slovenia in 2021.

    A measurement of the inclusive production cross section of isolated prompt photons in proton-antiproton collisions at center-of-mass energy √{s }=1.96 TeV is presented. The results are obtained using the full Run II data sample collected with the Collider Detector at the Fermilab Tevatron, which corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 9.5 fb-1 . The cross section is measured as a function of photon transverse energy, ETγ, in the range 30 0 . The results are compared with predictions from parton-shower Monte Carlo models at leading order in QCD and from next-to-leading-order perturbative QCD calculations. The latter show good agreement with the measured cross section.

    A search for CP violation in $D^0 \\rightarrow K^{-} K^{+} $ and $D^0 \\rightarrow \\pi^{-} \\pi^{+} $ decays is performed using $pp$ collision data, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $3~fb^{-1}$, collected using the LHCb detector at centre-of-mass energies of 7 and 8$~$TeV. The flavour of the charm meson is inferred from the charge of the pion in $D^{*+}\\rightarrow D^0\\pi^+$ and $D^{*-}\\rightarrow \\bar{D^0}\\pi^{-}$ decays. The difference between the CP asymmetries in $D^0 \\rightarrow K^{-} K^{+} $ and $D^0 \\rightarrow \\pi^{-} \\pi^{+} $ decays, $\\Delta A_{CP} \\equiv A_{CP}(K^{-} K^{+}) - A_{CP}(\\pi^{-} \\pi^{+})$, is measured to be $\\left( -0.10 \\pm 0.08(stat) \\pm 0.03(syst) \\right) \\%$. This is the most precise measurement of a time-integrated CP asymmetry in the charm sector from a single experiment.

    A search for CP violation in D^{0}→K^{-}K^{+} and D^{0}→π^{-}π^{+} decays is performed using pp collision data, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3  fb^{-1}, collected using the LHCb detector at center-of-mass energies of 7 and 8 TeV. The flavor of the charm meson is inferred from the charge of the pion in D^{*+}→D^{0}π^{+} and D^{*-}→D[over ¯]^{0}π^{-} decays. The difference between the CP asymmetries in D^{0}→K^{-}K^{+} and D^{0}→π^{-}π^{+} decays, ΔA_{CP}≡A_{CP}(K^{-}K^{+})-A_{CP}(π^{-}π^{+}), is measured to be [-0.10±0.08(stat)±0.03(syst)]%. This is the most precise measurement of a time-integrated CP asymmetry in the charm sector from a single experiment.

    We analyze the decay B{sup 0} {yields} K{sup +} {pi}{sup -} {pi}{sup 0} with a sample of 454 million B{bar B} events collected by the BABAR detector at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy B factory at SLAC, and extract the complex amplitudes of seven interfering resonances over the Dalitz plot. These results are combined with amplitudes measured in B{sup 0} {yields} K{sup 0}{sub s}{pi}{sup +}{pi}{sup -} decays to construct isospin amplitudes from B{sup 0} {yields} K{sup *}{pi} and B{sup 0} {yields} {rho}K decays. We measure the phase of the isospin amplitude {Phi}{sub 3/2}, useful in constraining the CKM unitarity triangle angle {gamma} and evaluate a CP rate asymmetry sum rule sensitive to the presence of new physics operators. We measure direct CP violation in B{sup 0} {yields} K{sup *+}{pi}{sup -} decays at the level of 3 {sigma} when measurements from both B{sup 0} {yields} K{sup +}{pi}{sup -}{pi}{sup 0} and B{sup 0} {yields} K{sup 0}{sub s}{pi}{sup +}{pi}{sup -} decays are combined.

    Measurements of the differential branching fraction and angular moments of the decay $B^0 \\to K^+ \\pi^- \\mu^+ \\mu^-$ in the $K^*_{0,2}(1430)^0$ in the $K^+\\pi^-$ invariant mass range $1330 < m (K^+ \\pi^-) <1530~ \\text{MeV}/c^2$ are presented. Proton-proton collision data are used, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3 fb$^{-1}$ collected by the LHCb experiment. Differential branching fraction measurements are reported in five bins of the invariant mass squared of the dimuon system, $q^2$, between 0.1 and 8.0 $\\text{GeV}^2/c^4$. For the first time, an angular analysis sensitive to the S-, P- and D-wave contributions of this rare decay is performed. The set of 40 normalised angular moments describing the decay is presented for the $q^2$ range $1.1-6.0 \\text{GeV}^2/c^4$.

    The $C\\!P$-violating asymmetries in the decay and in the interference between mixing and decay in the $B^0\\to\\pi^+\\pi^-$ and $B_s^0\\to K^+K^-$ modes are measured using a data sample of $pp$ collisions corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3 fb$^{-1}$, collected with the LHCb detector at centre-of-mass energies of 7 and 8 TeV. Flavour tagging is performed using only a subset of the current available taggers. The results are $C_{\\pi^+\\pi^-} = -0.24 \\pm 0.07 \\pm 0.01$, $S_{\\pi^+\\pi^-} = -0.68 \\pm 0.06 \\pm 0.01$, $C_{K^+K^-} = 0.24 \\pm 0.06 \\pm 0.02$, $S_{K^+K^-} = 0.22 \\pm 0.06 \\pm 0.02$, and $A_{K^+K^-}^{\\Delta\\Gamma} = -0.75 \\pm 0.07 \\pm 0.11$, where the first uncertainties are statistical and the second systematic.

    Inclusive jet production is studied in neutral current deep-inelastic positron proton scattering at large four momentum transfer squared Q>150GeV with the H1 detector at HERA. Single and double differential inclusive jet cross sections are measured as a function of Q and of the transverse energy E of the jets in the Breit frame. The measurements are found to be well described by calculations at next-to-leading order in perturbative QCD. The running of the strong coupling is demonstrated and the value of α(M) is determined. The ratio of the inclusive jet cross section to the inclusive neutral current cross section is also measured and used to extract a precise value for α(M)=0.1193±0.0014(exp.)-0.0030+0.0047(th.)±0.0016(pdf).

    Asymmetries in the time-dependent rates of D^{0}→K^{+}K^{-} and D^{0}→π^{+}π^{-} decays are measured in a pp collision data sample collected with the LHCb detector during LHC Run 1, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3  fb^{-1}. The asymmetries in effective decay widths between D^{0} and D[over ¯]^{0} decays, sensitive to indirect CP violation, are measured to be A_{Γ}(K^{+}K^{-})=(-0.30±0.32±0.10)×10^{-3} and A_{Γ}(π^{+}π^{-})=(0.46±0.58±0.12)×10^{-3}, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second systematic. These measurements show no evidence for CP violation and improve on the precision of the previous best measurements by nearly a factor of two.

    We report the measurement of new modes of the charmed baryon Λ c + using data recorded by the CLEO II detector at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring. We find branching ratios, relative to Λ c + →pK - π + , of 0.070±0.011±0.011 for Λ c + →Σ + K+K-, 0.069±0.023±0.016 for Λ c + →Σφ, 0.078±0.013±0.013 for Λ c + →Ξ 0 K+, and 0.053±0.016±0.010 for Λ c + →Ξ *0 K+. These measurements indicate that W-exchange diagrams contribute to Λ c + decay. We have also made a new measurement of the previously found mode Λ c + →Ξ - K+π +

    The first observation of the decays Λ_{b}^{0}→χ_{c1}pK^{-} and Λ_{b}^{0}→χ_{c2}pK^{-} is reported using a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3.0  fb^{-1}, collected by the LHCb experiment in pp collisions at center-of-mass energies of 7 and 8 TeV. The following ratios of branching fractions are measured: B(Λ_{b}^{0}→χ_{c1}pK^{-})/B(Λ_{b}^{0}→J/ψpK^{-})=0.242±0.014±0.013±0.009,B(Λ_{b}^{0}→χ_{c2}pK^{-})/B(Λ_{b}^{0}→J/ψpK^{-})=0.248±0.020±0.014±0.009,B(Λ_{b}^{0}→χ_{c2}pK^{-})/B(Λ_{b}^{0}→χ_{c1}pK^{-})=1.02±0.10±0.02±0.05,where the first uncertainty is statistical, the second systematic, and the third due to the uncertainty on the branching fractions of the χ_{c1}→J/ψγ and χ_{c2}→J/ψγ decays. Using both decay modes, the mass of the Λ_{b}^{0} baryon is also measured to be m_{Λ_{b}^{0}}=5619.44±0.28±0.26  MeV/c^{2}, where the first and second uncertainties are statistical and systematic, respectively.

    A measurement of the differential branching fraction of the decay ${B^{0}\\rightarrow K^{\\ast}(892)^{0}\\mu^{+}\\mu^{-}}$ is presented together with a determination of the S-wave fraction of the $K^+\\pi^-$ system in the decay $B^{0}\\rightarrow K^{+}\\pi^{-}\\mu^{+}\\mu^{-}$. The analysis is based on $pp$-collision data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3\\,fb$^{-1}$ collected with the LHCb experiment. The measurements are made in bins of the invariant mass squared of the dimuon system, $q^2$. Precise theoretical predictions for the differential branching fraction of $B^{0}\\rightarrow K^{\\ast}(892)^{0}\\mu^{+}\\mu^{-}$ decays are available for the $q^2$ region $1.10\\,{\\rm GeV}^2/c^4$. In this $q^2$ region, for the $K^+\\pi^-$ invariant mass range $796 < m_{K\\pi} < 996\\,{\\rm MeV}/c^2$, the S-wave fraction of the $K^+\\pi^-$ system in $B^{0}\\rightarrow K^{+}\\pi^{-}\\mu^{+}\\mu^{-}$ decays is found to be \\begin{equation*} F_{\\rm S} = 0.101\\pm0.017({\\rm stat})\\pm0.009 ({\\rm syst}), \\end{equation*}...

A maximum likelihood fit finds the following branching fractions: {Beta}(B{sup 0} {yields} K{sup 0}{pi}{sup +}{pi}{sup -}) = (43.0 {+-} 2.3 {+-} 2.3) x 10{sup -6}, {Beta}(B{sup 0} {yields} f{sub 0}({yields} {pi}{sup +}{pi}{sup -})K{sup 0}) = (5.5 {+-} 0.7 {+-} 0.5 {+-} 0.3) x 10{sup -6} and {Beta}(B{sup 0} {yields} K*{sup +}{pi}{sup -}) = (11.0 {+-} 1.5 {+-} 0.5 {+-} 0.5) x 10{sup -6}. For these results, the first uncertainty is statistical, the second is systematic, and the third (if present) is due to the effect of interference from other resonances. They also measure the CP-violating charge asymmetry in the decay B{sup 0} {yields} K*{sup +}{pi}{sup -}, {Alpha}{sub K*{pi}} = -0.11 {+-} 0.14 {+-} 0.05.

    Measurements are presented of the branching fractions of the decays $B_{s}^{0} \\to D_{s}^{\\mp} K^{\\pm}$ and $B^{0} \\to D_{s}^{-} K^{+}$ relative to the decays $B_{s}^{0} \\to D_{s}^{-} \\pi^{+}$ and $B^{0} \\to D^{-} \\pi^{+}$, respectively. The data used correspond to an integrated luminosity of 3.0 fb$^{-1}$ of proton-proton collisions. The ratios of branching fractions are $\\dfrac{\\mathcal{B}(B_{s}^{0} \\to D_{s}^{\\mp} K^{\\pm})}{\\mathcal{B}(B_{s}^{0} \\to D_{s}^{-} \\pi^{+})} = 0.0752 \\pm 0.0015 \\pm 0.0019$ and $\\dfrac{\\mathcal{B}(B^{0} \\to D_{s}^{-} K^{+})}{\\mathcal{B}(B^{0} \\to D^{-} \\pi^{+})} = 0.0129 \\pm 0.0005 \\pm 0.0008,$ where the uncertainties are statistical and systematic, respectively.

    It is shown, using a track-level simulation, that the use of the D s - → K *0 K - - decay channel for D s - reconstruction, in addition with the previously studied D s - → φπ - mode, enables two fold gain in the ATLAS B s 0 -mixing signal statistics through B s 0 → D s - α 1 B s 0 -decay channel. A new modification of the amplitude fit method is suggested for the x s -determination

    Inclusive multijet production has been studied with the ATLAS detector in proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 7 TeV, using an integrated luminosity of 17 nb$^{-1}$. The anti-$k_t$ algorithm with distance parameter $R=0.6$ is used to identify jets. The inclusive multijet cross section is measured, as well as the ratio of cross sections for inclusive production of $n-1$ and $n$ jets for $n\\leq 6$. The differential cross sections of the first, second, third and fourth leading jets as a function of transverse momentum, and the differential cross section as a function of the scalar sum of the $p_T$ of selected jets, $H_T$, for different jet multiplicities are presented. The ratio of the differential cross section as a function of $H_T$ for 3-jet and 2-jet events is also measured. The results are compared to expectations based on leading order QCD, which agree with the data.

    A measurement of the inclusive production cross section of isolated prompt photons in proton-antiproton collisions at center-of-mass energy $\\sqrt{s}$=1.96TeV is presented. The results are obtained using the full Run II data sample collected with the Collider Detector at the Fermilab Tevatron, which corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 9.5fb$^{-1}$. The cross section is measured as a function of photon transverse energy, $E_T^{\\gamma}$, in the range 30$ < E_T^{\\gamma} <$500GeV and in the pseudorapidity region $|\\eta^{\\gamma}|<$1.0. The results are compared with predictions from parton-shower Monte Carlo models at leading order in quantum chromodynamics (QCD) and from next-to-leading order perturbative QCD calculations. The latter show good agreement with the measured cross section.

    The character of the functional dependence of the cross sections of exclusive and inclusive processes on the energy of colliding particles is established according to the basic theoretical principles of causality, spectrality and unitarity. The Jost-Lehmann-Dyson representation for multiparticle amplitudes and distribution functions (DF) of an inclusive process is deduced. The asymptotic behaviour of the multiparticle amplitudes and DF at high energies is established on the basis of the higly general assumptions concerning the singularity character of the Jost-Lehmann-Dyson spectral functions. The restrictions on the possible increase of the amplitudes and DF are imposed. The asymptotic formulae for the DF are discussed in connection with the hypotheses of the limiting fragmentation and scale invariance. The method developed for obtaining the amlitude asymptotics at high energies is applied to the amplitude of a binary process

    The concepts of the Guide to the expression of Uncertainties in Measurements for chemical measurements (GUM) and the recommendations of the Eurachem document 'Quantifying Uncertainty in Analytical Methods' are applied to set up the uncertainty budget for k 0 -NAA. The 'universally applicable spreadsheet technique', described by KRAGTEN, is applied to the k 0 -NAA basic equations for the computation of uncertainties. The variance components - individual standard uncertainties - highlight the contribution and the importance of the different parameters to be taken into account. (author)

    This poster presents measurements of the inclusive differential cross-section of electron production in proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of sqrt(s) = 7 TeV. From a data sample of 1.4 pb-1 collected by the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider, the electron cross-section measurement is presented as a function of transverse momentum, pT , in the range 7 < pT < 26 GeV and within pseudorapidity |eta| < 2.0, correcting for all detector effects. After removal of the Drell-Yan contribution, the measured differential cross-section is found to be in good agreement with theoretical predictions for heavy-flavour production obtained from Fixed Order NLO calculations with Next-to-Leading-Log high-pT resummation.

    This poster presents the measurement of the inclusive differential cross-section as a function of the transverse momentum pT for electron production in proton-proton collisions at a center of mass energy of sqrt(s) = 7 TeV. From a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.3 pb-1 collected by the ATLAS detector at the LHC, the electron cross-sections is measured in the range 70, excluding the 1.37<|eta|<1.52 region. After subtraction of the W/Z/\\gamma^* contribution, the differential cross-section is found to be in good agreement with theoretical predictions for heavy-flavour production obtained from Fixed Order NLO calculations with NLL high-pT resummation.

    Genomic selection is a recently developed technology that is beginning to revolutionize animal breeding. The objective of this study was to estimate marker effects to derive prediction equations for direct genomic values for 16 routinely recorded traits of American Angus beef cattle and quantify corresponding accuracies of prediction. Deregressed estimated breeding values were used as observations in a weighted analysis to derive direct genomic values for 3570 sires genotyped using the Illumina BovineSNP50 BeadChip. These bulls were clustered into five groups using K-means clustering on pedigree estimates of additive genetic relationships between animals, with the aim of increasing within-group and decreasing between-group relationships. All five combinations of four groups were used for model training, with cross-validation performed in the group not used in training. Bivariate animal models were used for each trait to estimate the genetic correlation between deregressed estimated breeding values and direct genomic values. Accuracies of direct genomic values ranged from 0.22 to 0.69 for the studied traits, with an average of 0.44. Predictions were more accurate when animals within the validation group were more closely related to animals in the training set. When training and validation sets were formed by random allocation, the accuracies of direct genomic values ranged from 0.38 to 0.85, with an average of 0.65, reflecting the greater relationship between animals in training and validation. The accuracies of direct genomic values obtained from training on older animals and validating in younger animals were intermediate to the accuracies obtained from K-means clustering and random clustering for most traits. The genetic correlation between deregressed estimated breeding values and direct genomic values ranged from 0.15 to 0.80 for the traits studied. These results suggest that genomic estimates of genetic merit can be produced in beef cattle at a young age but

    Lead-free ceramics (1 - x)(K 0.5 Na 0.5 )NbO 3 -x(Bi 0.5 K 0.5 )TiO 3 [(1 - x)KNN-xBKT] were synthesized by conventional solid-state sintering. The phase structure, microstructure and electrical properties of (1 - x)KNN-xBKT ceramics were investigated. At room temperature, the polymorphic phase transition (from the orthorhombic to the tetragonal phase) (PPT) was identified at x = 0.02 by the analysis of x-ray diffraction patterns and dielectric spectroscopy. Enhanced electrical properties (d 33 = 251 pC N -1 , k p = 0.49, k t = 0.50, ε 33 T / ε 0 =1260, tan δ = 0.03 and T C = 376 deg. C) were obtained in the ceramics with x = 0.02 owing to the formation of the PPT at 70 deg. C and the selection of an optimum poling temperature. The related mechanisms for high piezoelectric properties in (1 - x)KNN-xBKT (x = 0.02) ceramics were discussed. In addition, the results confirmed that the selection of the optimum poling temperature was an effective way to further improve the piezoelectric properties of KNN-based ceramics. The enhanced properties were comparable to those of hard Pb(Zr, Ti)O 3 ceramics and indicated that the (1 - x)KNN-xBKT (x = 0.02) ceramic was a promising lead-free piezoelectric candidate material for actuator and transducer applications

    We compute the differential cross-section for inclusive prompt photon production in deeply inelastic scattering (DIS) of electrons on nuclei at small x in the framework of the Color Glass Condensate (CGC) effective theory. The leading order (LO) computation in this framework resums leading logarithms in x as well as power corrections to all orders in Q s, A 2 / Q 2, where Q s, A ( x) is the nuclear saturation scale. This LO result is proportional to universal dipole and quadrupole Wilson line correlators in the nucleus. In the soft photon limit, the Low-Burnett-Kroll theorem allows us to recover existing results on inclusive DIS dijet production. The k ⊥ and collinearly factorized expressions for prompt photon production in DIS are also recovered in a leading twist approximation to our result. In the latter case, our result corresponds to the dominant next-to-leading order (NLO) perturbative QCD contribution at small x. We next discuss the computation of the NLO corrections to inclusive prompt photon production in the CGC framework. In particular, we emphasize the advantages for higher order computations in inclusive photon production, and for fully inclusive DIS, arising from the simple momentum space structure of the dressed quark and gluon "shock wave" propagators in the "wrong" light cone gauge A - = 0 for a nucleus moving with P N + → ∞.

    K + p→KπN reactions were studied at 2.11, 2.31, 2.53 and 2.72GeV/c, special attention being given to the K + p→K 0 π + p and K + p→K + π 0 p channels. The production of K*(892) and Δ ++ (1236) resonances, very frequent in these two reactions, was studied in terms of a simple Regge model. It was possible, by including results of other experiments at near energies, to establish the dominance of the vector meson exchange. This result is confirmed by the study of the angular distributions in the decay of these resonances, and the determination of the corresponding density matrix elements. The relations predicted by the quark model for these reactions was also tested [fr

The kinematic region covers small photon virtualities Q {sup 2}<2 GeV{sup 2} and photon-proton centre-of-mass energies of 100Inclusive D {sup *} meson differential cross sections are measured for central rapidities vertical stroke {eta}(D{sup *}) vertical stroke <1.5 and transverse momenta p{sub T}(D {sup *})>1.8 GeV. The heavy quark production process is further investigated in events with at least two jets with transverse momentum p{sub T} (jet) >3.5 GeV each, one containing the D{sup *} meson. Differential cross sections for D{sup *}-tagged dijet production and for correlations between the jets are measured in the range vertical stroke {eta}(D{sup *}) vertical stroke <1.5 and p{sub T}(D {sup *})>2.1 GeV. The results are compared with predictions from Monte Carlo simulations and next-to-leading order perturbative QCD calculations. (orig.)

    The authors present the results of searches for B decays to the two charmless two-body final states B{sup 0} {yields} {eta}K*{sup 0} and B{sup +} {yields} {eta}K*{sup +}, based on 20.7 fb{sup -1} of data collected in 1999 and 2000 with the BABAR detector at PEP-II. They find the branching fractions {Beta}(B{sup 0} {yields} {eta}K*{sup 0}) = (19.8 {sub -5.6}{sup +6.5} {+-} 1.7) x 10{sup -6} and {Beta}(B{sup +} {yields} {eta}K*{sup +}) = (22.1 {sub -9.2}{sup +11.1} {+-} 3.3) x 10{sup -6}, where the first error quoted is the statistical and the second systematic.

    We present studies of single-spin asymmetries for neutral pion electroproduction in semi-inclusive deep-inelastic scattering of 5.776 GeV polarized electrons from an unpolarized hydrogen target, using the CEBAF Large Acceptance Spectrometer (CLAS) at the Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility. A substantial sinϕh amplitude has been measured in the distribution of the cross section asymmetry as a function of the azimuthal angle ϕh of the produced neutral pion. The dependence of this amplitude on Bjorken x and on the pion transverse momentum is extracted with significantly higher precision than previous data and is compared to model calculations.

    LHCb experiment has been designed in order to do precise measurements of CP violation and rare decays with B mesons. In 2000, the collaboration decided to modify the spectrometer in order to minimize the amount of matter seen by particles and to optimize the trigger. This thesis was done in this context and is divided into 3 parts. The first part is relative to the electron identification and to the recovery of Bremsstrahlung photons emitted by electrons when they pass through matter. Electron identification is mainly based on information provided by calorimeter system but also uses RICH and muon system. A method based on reference histograms had been developed which combine information provided by these detectors. Electron identification efficiency, for electrons in ECAL acceptance is 95% and the pion mis-identification rates 0.8% with a 65% purity of electron sample. Bremsstrahlung recovery allows the selection of J/{phi} decaying in e{sup +}e{sup -} pair and of B{sub d}{sup 0} {yields} J/{phi}(ee)K{sub S}{sup 0} channel which are described in the second part. The selection of this channel was developed in order to get an acceptable selection efficiency with a good rejection of background. A set of kinematic and topological cuts were designed and total selection efficiency is 0.176%, corresponding to 28000 untagged events reconstructed by year, with a ratio B/S belonging to [0.017;0.069] (at 90% of confidence level) for inclusive bb-bar background. In the third part, B meson flavour tagging is presented. The addition of information provided by the vertex locator allows to reject electron coming from conversion and to improve slightly the performances. The LHCb sensibility to sin(2{beta}) from B{sup 0} {yields} J/{psi}K{sub S}{sup 0} decay is also determined. The statistical error, expected after one year of data collecting, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 2 fb{sup -1} and bb-bar pair cross section of 0.5 mb, varies from 0.015 to 0.020 according to

    Inclusive jet production is studied in neutral current deep-inelastic positron-proton scattering at large four momentum transfer squared Q^2>150 GeV^2 with the H1 detector at HERA. Single and double differential inclusive jet cross sections are measured as a function of Q^2 and of the transverse energy E_T of the jets in the Breit frame. The measurements are found to be well described by calculations at next-to-leading order in perturbative QCD. The running of the strong coupling is demonstrated and the value of alpha_s(M_Z) is determined. The ratio of the inclusive jet cross section to the inclusive neutral current cross section is also measured and used to extract a precise value for alpha_s(M_Z)=0.1193+/-0.0014(exp.)^{+0.0047}_{-0.0030}(th.)+/-0.0016(pdf).

    We present a measurement of the branching fraction of the decay B{sup {+-}} {yields} {chi}{sub c0}K{sup {+-}} from a sample of 89 million B{bar B} pairs collected by the BABAR detector at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy B Factory at SLAC. The {chi}{sub c0} meson is reconstructed through its two-body decays to {pi}{sup +}{pi}{sup -} and K{sup +}K{sup -}. The authors measure {Beta}(B{sup {+-}} {yields} {chi}{sub c0}K{sup {+-}}) x {Beta}({chi}{sub c0} {yields} {pi}{sup +}{pi}{sup -}) = (1.32 {sub -0.27}{sup +0.28}(stat) {+-} 0.09(syst)) x 10{sup -6} and {Beta}(B{sup {+-}} {yields} {chi}{sub c0}K{sup {+-}}) x {Beta}({chi}{sub c0} {yields} K{sup +}K{sup -}) = (1.49{sub -0.34}{sup +0.36}(stat) {+-} 0.11(syst)) x 10{sup -6}. Using the known values for the {chi}{sub c0} decays branching fractions, they combine these results to obtain {Beta}(B{sup {+-}} {yields} {chi}{sub c0} K{sup {+-}}) = (2.7 {+-} 0.7) x 10{sup -4}.

    A study of indirect CP violation in D0 mesons through the determination of the parameter AΓ is presented using a data sample of pp collisions, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.0 fb-1, collected with the LHCb detector and recorded at the center-of-mass energy of 7 TeV at the LHC. The parameter AΓ is the asymmetry of the effective lifetimes measured in decays of D0 and D̄â€0 mesons to the CP eigenstates K-K+ and π-π+. Fits to the data sample yield AΓ(KK)=(-0.35±0. 62±0.12)×10-3 an...

    An angular analysis of the decay $B^0 \\to \\phi K^*(892)^0$ is reported based on a $pp$ collision data sample, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.0 fb$^{-1}$, collected at a centre-of-mass energy of $\\sqrt{s} = 7$ TeV with the LHCb detector. The P-wave amplitudes and phases are measured with a greater precision than by previous experiments, and confirm about equal amounts of longitudinal and transverse polarization. The S-wave $K^+ \\pi^-$ and $K^+K^-$ contributions are taken into account and found to be significant. A comparison of the $B^0 \\to \\phi K^*(892)^0$ and $\\bar{B}^0 \\to \\phi \\bar{K}^*(892)^0$ results shows no evidence for direct CP violation in the rate asymmetry, in the triple-product asymmetries or in the polarization amplitudes and phases.

    The first measurements of the forward-backward asymmetry of the dimuon pair ($A_{FB}$), the triple-product asymmetry ($A_{2\\phi}$), and the charge-parity-conjugation asymmetry ($A_{CP}$), in $D^0\\to\\pi^+\\pi^-\\mu^+\\mu^-$ and $D^0\\to K^+K^-\\mu^+\\mu^-$ decays are reported. They are performed using data from proton-proton collisions collected with the LHCb experiment from 2011 to 2016, corresponding to a total integrated luminosity of 5 fb$^{-1}$. The asymmetries are measured to be \\begin{align*} A_{FB}(D^0\\to\\pi^+\\pi^-\\mu^+\\mu^-) &= (\\phantom{-}3.3\\pm3.7\\pm0.6)\\%,\\\\ A_{2\\phi}(D^0\\to\\pi^+\\pi^-\\mu^+\\mu^-)&= (-0.6\\pm3.7\\pm0.6)\\%,\\\\ A_{CP}(D^0\\to\\pi^+\\pi^-\\mu^+\\mu^-) &= (\\phantom{-}4.9\\pm3.8\\pm0.7)\\%,\\\\ A_{FB}(D^0\\to K^+K^-\\mu^+\\mu^-) &= (0\\pm11\\pm2)\\%,\\\\ A_{2\\phi}(D^0\\to K^+K^-\\mu^+\\mu^-)&= (9\\pm11\\pm1)\\%,\\\\ A_{CP}(D^0\\to K^+K^-\\mu^+\\mu^-) &= (0\\pm11\\pm2)\\%, \\end{align*} where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second systematic. The asymmetries are also measured as a function of t...

    We report on measurements of the inclusive production rate of $\\Sigma^+$ and $\\Sigma^0$ baryons in hadronic Z decays collected with the L3 detector at LEP. The $\\Sigma^+$ baryons are detected through the decay $\\Sigma^+ \\rightarrow {\\rm p} \\pi^0$, while the $\\Sigma^0$ baryons are detected via the decay mode $\\Sigma^0 \\rightarrow \\Lambda \\gamma$. The average numbers of $\\Sigma^+$ and $\\Sigma^0$ per hadronic Z decay are measured to be: \\begin{eqnarray*} \\left + \\left & = & 0.114 \\pm 0.011_{\\mbox{\\it \\small stat}} \\pm 0.009_{\\mbox{\\it \\small syst}} \\\\ \\left + \\left & = & 0.095 \\pm 0.015_{\\mbox{\\it \\small stat}} \\pm 0.013_{\\mbox{\\it \\small syst}} \\ \\mbox{.} \\end{eqnarray*} These rates are found to be higher than the predictions from Monte Carlo hadronization models and analytical parameterizations of strange baryon production.

    A search for the decay $B_{s}^0 \\rightarrow \\overline{K}{}^{*0}\\mu^+\\mu^-$ is presented using data sets corresponding to 1.0, 2.0 and 1.6 $\\text{fb}^{-1}$ of integrated luminosity collected during $pp$ collisions with the LHCb experiment at centre-of-mass energies of 7, 8 and 13 TeV, respectively. An excess is found over the background-only hypothesis with a significance of 3.4 standard deviations. The branching fraction of the $B_{s}^0 \\rightarrow \\overline{K}{}^{*0}\\mu^+\\mu^-$ decay is determined to be $\\mathcal{B}(B_{s}^0 \\rightarrow \\overline{K}{}^{*0}\\mu^+\\mu^-) = [2.9 \\pm 1.0~(\\text{stat}) \\pm 0.2~(\\text{syst}) \\pm 0.3~(\\text{norm})] \\times 10^{-8}$, where the first and second uncertainties are statistical and systematic, respectively. The third uncertainty is due to limited knowledge of external parameters used to normalise the branching fraction measurement.

    We investigate the total cross section and its target dependence for K + -nucleus scattering using a relativistic momentum-space optical potential model which incorporates relativistically normalized wave functions, invariant two-body amplitudes, covariant kinematics, and an exact full-Fermi averaging integral. The definition of the total cross section in the presence of a Coulomb interaction is reviewed and the total cross section is calculated in a way that is consistent with what is extracted from experiment. In addition, the total cross sections for a nucleus and for the deuteron are calculated utilizing the same theory. This minimizes the dependence of the ratio of these cross sections on the details of the theory. The model dependence of the first-order optical potential calculations is investigated. The theoretical results are found to be systematically below all existing data

  12. CP violation in D0 →(K-K+,π-π+) from diquarks

    2012-02-01

    The explanation of the large CP asymmetries in D 0 →(π + π - ,K + K - ) decays observed by the LHCb collaboration is likely to call for new physics beyond the CKM paradigm. We explore new contributions caused by the color-sextet scalar diquark, and demonstrate that the diquark with the mass of order 1 TeV and nominal couplings with quarks can generate the CP asymmetries at the percent level. Using the experimental data on branching ratios and CP asymmetries of D 0 →(π + π - ,K + K - ), we derive the constraints on the diquark mass and couplings, which can be further examined on hadron colliders in the dijet final states.

    2016-07-01

    The BGO-OD experiment at the ELSA facility in Bonn is built to investigate nucleon excitations via meson photoproduction. A program of measurements of reactions of associated strangeness in the final state has begun, one of which is γp → K{sup 0}Σ{sup +}. One research objective is associated production of strange particles. An interesting reaction channel is γp → K{sup 0}Σ{sup +}. This talk shows the preliminary results of the analysis for the charged decay channel K{sup 0}Σ{sup +} → π{sup -}π{sup +}π{sup 0}p. Due to the small production cross section kinematic fitting has been used to discriminate the wanted channel against background.

    A measurement of the inclusive production of pi0 mesons in hadronic Z decays is presented and compared to Monte Carlo model predictions. The analysis is based on approximately 2 million hadronic events recorded with the ALEPH detector at LEP at a centre-of-mass energy of sqrt(s) = 91.2 GeV. Neutral pions are reconstructed using photons from conversion pairs and photons measured in the electromagnetic calorimeter. The inclusive pi0 momentum spectrum is measured in the range from 0.025 < x(p) = p/p(beam) < 1 to be 4.80 +/- 0.07(stat) +/- 0.31(sys). The differential inclusive pi0 cross section has also been measured as a function of transverse momentum with respect to the event plane (p_T^in and p_T^out_T).

    2008-01-01

    Lead-free (K x Na 1-x ) 0.96 Li 0.04 Nb 0.80 Ta 0.20 O 3 ceramics with x = 0.10-0.70 were prepared by the conventional solid-state reaction technique. The influence of the K/Na ratio on the microstructure, crystallographic structure, phase transition and piezoelectric properties was investigated. It has been disclosed that the phase transition temperature T O-T drastically decreases with x in the narrow compositional range of x 0.30-0.40 and the phase coexistence of the orthorhombic structure and the tetragonal structure occurs near x = 0.40. The ceramics with x = 0.40 shows high piezoelectric properties (d 33 = 254 pC N -1 , k p = 51.5%, k t = 49.4% and k 33 = 66.6%, respectively) with low dielectric loss (tan δ 1.5%) and weak temperature dependence between 10 and 85 deg. C. In particular, the piezoelectric properties remain almost unchanged in the thermal ageing test from -125 to 300 deg. C. Therefore, this ceramic is considered to be a very promising lead-free piezoelectric material for practical applications. The relation of piezoelectric properties with morphotropic phase boundary and polymorphic phase transition was discussed

  16. Experimental study of quartz inclusions in garnet at pressures up to 3.0 GPa: evaluating validity of the quartz-in-garnet inclusion elastic thermobarometer

    Garnet crystals with quartz inclusions were hydrothermally crystallized from oxide starting materials in piston-cylinder apparatuses at pressures from 0.5 to 3 GPa and temperatures ranging from 700 to 800 °C to study how entrapment conditions affect remnant pressures of quartz inclusions used for quartz-in-garnet (QuiG) elastic thermobarometry. Systematic changes of the 128, 206 and 464 cm-1 Raman band frequencies of quartz were used to determine pressures of quartz inclusions in garnet using Raman spectroscopy calibrations that describe the P-T dependencies of Raman band shifts for quartz under hydrostatic pressure. Within analytical uncertainties, inclusion pressures calculated for each of the three Raman band frequencies are equivalent, which suggests that non-hydrostatic stress effects caused by elastic anisotropy in quartz are smaller than measurement errors. The experimental quartz inclusions have pressures ranging from - 0.351 to 1.247 GPa that span the range of values observed for quartz inclusions in garnets from natural rocks. Quartz inclusion pressures were used to model P-T conditions at which the inclusions could have been trapped. The accuracy of QuiG thermobarometry was evaluated by considering the differences between pressures measured during experiments and pressures calculated using published equation of state parameters for quartz and garnet. Our experimental results demonstrate that Raman measurements performed at room temperature can be used without corrections to estimate garnet crystallization pressures. Calculated entrapment pressures for quartz inclusions in garnet are less than 10% different from pressures measured during the experiments. Because the method is simple to apply with reasonable accuracy, we expect widespread usage of QuiG thermobarometry to estimate crystallization conditions for garnet-bearing silicic rocks.

    We study the rare B meson decays B±,0 → J/ψK+KK±,0, B±,0 → J/ψΦK±,0, and search for B0 → J/ψΦ, using 469 million BB¯ events collected at the Υ(4S) resonance with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II e+e asymmetric energy collider. We present new measurements of branching fractions and a study of the J/ψΦ mass distribution in search of new charmonium-like states. In addition, we search for the decay B0 → J/ψΦ and find no evidence of a signal.

    A combination is presented of the inclusive deep inelastic cross sections measured by the H1 and ZEUS Collaborations in neutral and charged current unpolarised e{sup {+-}}p scattering at HERA during the period 1994-2000. The data span six orders of magnitude in negative four-momentum-transfer squared, Q{sup 2}, and in Bjorken x. The combination method used takes the correlations of systematic uncertainties into account, resulting in an improved accuracy. The combined data are the sole input in a NLO QCD analysis which determines a new set of parton distributions HERAPDF1.0 with small experimental uncertainties. This set includes an estimate of the model and parametrisation uncertainties of the fit result. (orig.)

    A study of indirect CP violation in $D^0$ mesons through the determination of the parameter $A_\\Gamma$ is presented using a data sample of $pp$ collisions, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.0 fb$^{-1}$, collected with the LHCb detector and recorded at the centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV at the LHC. The parameter $A_\\Gamma$ is the asymmetry of the effective lifetimes measured in decays of $D^0$ and $\\overline{D}^0$ mesons to the CP eigenstates $K^-K^+$ and $\\pi^-\\pi^+$. Fits to the data sample yield $A_\\Gamma(KK)=(-0.35\\pm0.62\\pm0.12)\\times 10^{-3}$ and $A_\\Gamma(\\pi\\pi)=(0.33\\pm1.06\\pm0.14)\\times 10^{-3}$, where the first uncertainties are statistical and the second systematic. The results represent the world's best measurements of these quantities. They show no difference in $A_\\Gamma$ between the two final states and no indication of CP violation.

The results represent the world's best measurements of these quantities. They show no difference in AΓ between the two final states and no indication of CP violation.

    We present the first observation of the decay $\\bar{B}$$0\\atop{s}$ → D$+\\atop{s}$ K and measure the relative branching fraction of $\\bar{B}$$0\\atop{s}$ → D$+\\atop{s}$ K to $\\bar{B}$$0\\atop{s}$ → D$+\\atop{s}$ π-. The measurement of the relative branching fraction is performed by applying a fit in invariant mass and specific ionization to 1.2 fb-1 of Ds(φπ)X data collected with the CDF II detector in pp collisions at √s = 1.96 TeV at the Fermilab Tevatron collider. We measure B($\\bar{B}$$0\\atop{s}$ → D± s K∓¢/B($\\bar{B}$$0\\atop{s}$ → D$+\\atop{s}$ π-) = 0.107±0.019(stat)±0.008(sys). The statistical significance of the $\\bar{B}$$0\\atop{s}$ → D$+\\atop{s}$ K signal is 7.9σ. To cross-check our analysis method, we also measure B($\\bar{B0}$ → D+K-)/B($\\bar{B0}$ → D+π-) and B($\\bar{B0}$ → D*+K-)/B($\\bar{B0}$ → D*+π-) and verify that our results are in agreement with the world average.

    Two-particle K 0 π + and K 0 π - rapidity correlations in K + p interactions at 8.2 and 16 GeV/c are compared for different regions of (K 0 π +- ) effective mass. It is shown that the strong Ksup(*)(892) resonance production has a small effect on the K 0 π - rapidity correlation behaviour

    The resonant substructure of $B_s^0 \\rightarrow \\overline{D}^0 K^- \\pi^+$ decays is studied with the Dalitz plot analysis technique. The study is based on a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $3.0\\,{\\rm fb}^{-1}$ of $pp$ collision data recorded by LHCb. A structure at $m(\\overline{D}^0 K^-) \\approx 2.86 {\\rm GeV}/c^2$ is found to be an admixture of spin-1 and spin-3 resonances. The masses and widths of these states and of the $D^*_{s2}(2573)^-$ meson are measured, as are the complex amplitudes and fit fractions for all the $\\overline{D}^0 K^-$ and $K^-\\pi^+$ components included in the amplitude model. In addition, the $D^*_{s2}(2573)^-$ resonance is confirmed to be spin-2.

    There is simultaneous reduced B (E2) values of low-lying K π= 0 + → 2 + states, indicating a beta vibration like structure as well as the two particle transfer cross-section which suggest a pairing vibration like character and interpreted that low-lying k π= 0 + → 2 + resonance are classical beta vibrations. Recently, similar doubts about the origin of beta vibrations from surface oscillation have also been published

  7. Study of the β-Cyclodextrin Imipramine Hydrochloride Inclusion Complex and Determination of its Stability Constant (K by UV-Visible Spectroscopy

    Full Text Available In this research, the interactions of imipramine hydrochloride drug with β- cyclodextrin and the stability constant (K of the inclusion complex formed between them were investigated by using UV-visible spectroscopy. Solutions consisting of a known and constant amount of imipramine hydrochloride and varying amounts of β- cyclodextrin were prepared in 0.1 M phosphate buffer (pH 7.4. The final solutions had cyclodextrin concentrations between 0.0011 and 0.0153 M. UV-visible spectra of each solution was taken at λmax= 250 nm. The absorbances at this wavelength were recorded and plotted against cyclodextrin concentrations. From the graph, the concentrations of free and bound imipramine hydrochloride and free β-cyclodextrin were calculated using the Beer-Lambert law. From these data, the stability constant was calculated and a value of K=52.26±11.41 mol-1L was obtained. The magnitude of the stability constant is discussed in terms of the relative sizes and the chemical natures of β-cyclodextrin and imipramine hydrochloride.

    The charmless decays $B^{\\pm} \\rightarrow K^{+}K^{-}\\pi^{\\pm}$ and $B^{\\pm} \\rightarrow \\pi^{+}\\pi^{-}\\pi^{\\pm}$ are reconstructed in a data set, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.0 fb$^{-1}$ of pp collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 7 TeV, collected by LHCb in 2011. The inclusive charge asymmetries of these modes are measured to be $A_{CP}(B^{\\pm} \\rightarrow K^{+}K^{-}\\pi^{\\pm}) =-0.141 \\pm 0.040 (stat) \\pm 0.018 (syst) \\pm 0.007 (J/\\psi K^{\\pm})$ and $A_{CP}(B^{\\pm} \\rightarrow \\pi^{+}\\pi^{-}\\pi^{\\pm}) = 0.117 \\pm 0.021 (stat) \\pm 0.009 (syst) \\pm 0.007 (J/\\psi K^{\\pm})$, where the third uncertainty is due to the CP asymmetry of the $B^{\\pm} \\rightarrow J/\\psi K^{\\pm}$ reference mode. In addition to the inclusive CP asymmetries, larger asymmetries are observed in localized regions of phase space.

    The inclusive production of the meson resonances $\\rho^{0}(770)$, $f_0(980)$ and $f_2(1270)$ in neutrino-nucleus charged current interactions has been studied with the NOMAD detector exposed to the wide band neutrino beam generated by 450 GeV protons at the CERN SPS. For the first time the $f_{0}(980)$ meson is observed in neutrino interactions. The statistical significance of its observation is 6 standard deviations. The presence of $f_{2}(1270)$ in neutrino interactions is reliably established. The average multiplicity of these three resonances is measured as a function of several kinematic variables. The experimental results are compared to the multiplicities obtained from a simulation based on the Lund model. In addition, the average multiplicity of $\\rho^{0}(770)$ in antineutrino - nucleus interactions is measured.

    While little is known about parental beliefs and desires regarding LGBTQ-inclusive education, assumptions about these appear to justify teachers', curriculum writers' and policy makers' silences regarding sexuality and gender diversity in the K-12 classroom. Thus, in order to better inform educators' practices, this paper presents an analysis of…

    In view of the importance of the X-ray production cross-section for the determination of element concentration in a given material, we have measured them experimentally for light elements Sc and Fe using proton beams of energy between 40 and 180 keV. The obtained K X-ray production cross-section is compared with the previous experimental results. The experimental K X-ray production cross-section for proton induced X-ray emission (PIXE) analysis, using low energy (200 keV) accelerator, have been improved

    A search is presented for hidden-sector bosons, $\\chi$, produced in the decay ${B^0\\!\\to K^*(892)^0\\chi}$, with $K^*(892)^0\\!\\to K^{+}\\pi^{-}$ and $\\chi\\!\\to\\mu^+\\mu^-$. The search is performed using $pp$-collision data corresponding to 3.0 fb$^{-1}$ collected with the LHCb detector. No significant signal is observed in the accessible mass range $214 \\leq m({\\chi}) \\leq 4350$ MeV, and upper limits are placed on the branching fraction product $\\mathcal{B}(B^0\\!\\to K^*(892)^0\\chi)\\times\\mathcal{B}(\\chi\\!\\to\\mu^+\\mu^-)$ as a function of the mass and lifetime of the $\\chi$ boson. These limits are of the order of $10^{-9}$ for $\\chi$ lifetimes less than 100 ps over most of the $m(\\chi)$ range, and place the most stringent constraints to date on many theories that predict the existence of additional low-mass bosons.

  14. Measurement of CP–Violating Asymmetries in $D^0 \\to \\pi^+ \\pi^-$ and $D^0 \\to K^+ K^- $ Decays at CDF

    We report a search for non–Standard Model physics through the measurement of CP–violating asymmetries in the singly–Cabibbo– suppressed $D^0 \\to \\pi^+ \\pi^-$ and $D^0 \\to K^+ K^- $ decays reconstructed in about 5.9 fb-1 of CDF data. We use the strong $D^{*+} \\to D^0\\pi^+$ decay (“D tag”) to identify the flavor of the charmed meson at production time and exploit CP–conserving strong cc pair–production in pp collisions. Large samples of Cabibbo–favored $D^0 \\to K^-\\pi^+$ decays with and without D tag are used to highly suppress systematic uncertainties due to detector effects. The results are the world’s most precise measurements to date and have been published by Physical Review D in January 2012 [1].

    The time-dependent CP asymmetry in B(s)(0)→J/ψK+K- decays is measured using pp collision data, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3.0  fb-1, collected with the LHCb detector at center-of-mass energies of 7 and 8 TeV. In a sample of 96,000 B(s)(0)→J/ψK+K- decays, the CP-violating phase ϕs is measured, as well as the decay widths ΓL and ΓH of the light and heavy mass eigenstates of the B(s)(0)-B[over ¯]s0 system. The values obtained are ϕs=-0.058±0.049±0.006  rad, Γs≡(ΓL+ΓH)/2=0.6603±0.0027±0.0015  ps-1, and ΔΓs≡ΓL-ΓH=0.0805±0.0091±0.0032  ps-1, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second, systematic. These are the most precise single measurements of those quantities to date. A combined analysis with Bs0→J/ψπ+π- decays gives ϕs=-0.010±0.039  rad. All measurements are in agreement with the standard model predictions. For the first time, the phase ϕs is measured independently for each polarization state of the K+K- system and shows no evidence for polarization dependence.

    A search for a narrow baryonic resonance decaying to $K^0_s p$ or $K^0_s \\bar p$ is carried out in deep inelastic ep scattering with the H1 detector at HERA. Such a resonance could be a strange pentaquark \\thplns, evidence for which has been reported by several experiments. The $K^0_s p$ and $K^0_s \\bar p$ invariant mass distributions presented here do not show any significant peak in the mass range from threshold up to 1.7 GeV. Mass dependent upper limits on $\\sigma(ep \\to e \\thplf X)\\times BR(\\thplf \\to K^0 p)$ are obtained at the 95% confidence level.

    This note presents the measurement of a $t$-channel single top-quark production fiducial cross-section in the lepton+jets channel with 20.3 fb$^{-1}$ of 8 TeV data using a neural-network discriminant. Events are selected by requiring exactly two jets, where one of the jets is required to be $b$-tagged. Signal events from $t$-channel single top-quark processes are enhanced using a neural-network discriminant based on final-state observables. The $t$-channel production cross-section in the fiducial region is obtained from a binned maximum-likelihood fit to the neural-network discriminant. A fiducial cross-section quoted within the detector acceptance of $\\sigma_{\\rm fid} = 3.37 \\pm 0.05 \\, (\\mathrm{stat.}) \\pm 0.47 \\, (\\mathrm{syst.}) \\pm 0.09 \\, (\\mathrm{lumi.})~\\text{pb}$ is obtained. The total inclusive $t$-channel cross-section is calculated using the acceptance predicted by various Monte Carlo generators. If the acceptance from the aMC@NLO+Herwig event generator is used, a value of $\\sigma_t = 82.6 \\pm 1.2...

    Differential cross sections for K - radiative capture in flight on the proton, leading to the γΛ and γΣ 0 final states, have been measured at eight K - momenta between 514 and 750 MeV/c. The data were obtained with the Crystal Ball multiphoton spectrometer installed at the separated K/π beam line C6 of the BNL Alternating Gradient Synchrotron. The results substantially improve the existing experimental data available for studying radiative decays of excited hyperon states. An exploratory theoretical analysis is performed within the Regge-plus-resonance approach. According to this analysis, the γΣ 0 final state is dominated by hyperon-resonance exchange and hints at an important role for a resonance in the mass region of 1700 MeV. In the γΛ final state, in contrast, the resonant contributions account for only half the strength, and the data suggest the importance of a resonance in the mass region of 1550 MeV.

    The branching fraction of the rate decay $B^0 \\rightarrow K^{*0}e^+e^-$ in the dilepton mass region from 30 to 1000 MeV$/c^2$ has been measured by the LHCb experiment, using $pp$ collision data, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.0 fb$^{-1}$, at a centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV. The decay mode $B^0 \\rightarrow J/\\psi(e^+e^-) K^{*0}$ is utilized as a normalization channel. The branching fraction $B^0 \\rightarrow K^{*0}e^+e^-$ is measured to be $$ B(B^0 \\rightarrow K^{*0}e^+e^-)^{30-1000 MeV/c^2}= (3.1\\, ^{+0.9\\mbox{} +0.2}_{-0.8\\mbox{}-0.3} \\pm 0.2)\\times 10^{-7}, $$ where the first error is statistical, the second is systematic, and the third comes from the uncertainties on the $B^0 \\rightarrow J/\\psi K^{*0}$ and $J/\\psi \\rightarrow e^+e^- $ branching fractions.

    A search is presented for hidden-sector bosons, χ, produced in the decay B(0)→K*(892)(0)χ, with K*(892)(0)→K(+)π(-) and χ→μ(+)μ(-). The search is performed using pp-collision data corresponding to 3.0  fb(-1) collected with the LHCb detector. No significant signal is observed in the accessible mass range 214≤m(χ)≤4350  MeV, and upper limits are placed on the branching fraction product B(B(0)→K*(892)(0)χ)×B(χ→μ(+)μ(-)) as a function of the mass and lifetime of the χ boson. These limits are of the order of 10(-9) for χ lifetimes less than 100 ps over most of the m(χ) range, and place the most stringent constraints to date on many theories that predict the existence of additional low-mass bosons.

  2. Inclusive neutral current ep cross sections with HERA II and two-dimensional unfolding

    Energy Technology Data Exchange (ETDEWEB)

    Fischer, David-Johannes

    2011-06-15

    In this thesis, the inclusive neutral current ep {yields} eX cross section at small e{sup -} scattering angles has been measured using the electromagnetic SpaCal calorimeter in the backward region of the H1 detector. This calorimeter constructed of lead and scintillating fiber was designed to measure the scattered electron with high resolution in both energy and polar angle. The analysis comprises the kinematic range of 0.06 < y{sub e} < 0.6 for the inelasticity and 14 GeV{sup 2} < Q{sub e}{sup 2} < 110 GeV{sup 2} for the squared momentum exchange. The data sample consists of positron proton collisions of the years 2006 and 2007, adding up to an integrated luminosity of {proportional_to}141 pb{sup -1}. Due to the high luminosity of the HERA II run phase the accuracy is no longer limited by the data statistics but rather by the detector resolution and systematics. The migration becomes increasingly influential; an effect which leads to distortions of the measured distribution as well as to statistical correlations between adjacent data points. At this stage, the correction of detector effects as well as the precise determination of statistical correlations become important features of a rigorous error treatment. In this analysis two-dimensional unfolding has been applied. This is a novel approach to H1 inclusive cross section measurements, which are usually based on a bin-by-bin efficiency correction (bin-by-bin method). With unfolding, the detector effect to the measurements is modelled by a linear transformation (''response matrix'') which is used to correct any distortion of the data. The inclusion of off-diagonal elements results in a coherent assessment of the statistical uncertainties and correlations. The model dependence can be optimally evaluated. In this context, the bin-by-bin method can be viewed as an approximation based on a diagonal response matrix. In a scenario of limited detector resolution, the unfolded data distributions will

  4. Is D0→phiK0 really a clear signal for the annihilation diagram

    International Nuclear Information System (INIS)

    Donoghue, J.F.

    1986-01-01

    It is shown that rescattering effects required by unitarity can produce the reaction D 0 →phiK 0 , even when the ''W-exchange'' or ''annihilation'' diagram is not present. This is addressed both in a general context and a specific model. In the latter, it is the mode D 0K(eta which plays the major role in generating the phiK final state, as the K(eta state is produced using the uu-bar component of the eta, and scatters, K(eta→Kphi by quark exchange, utilizing the ss-bar component of the eta

    The decays K L,S → π 0 γγ are calculated within the framework of chiral perturbation theory. The amplitude for K L → π 0 γγ is found to be finite at the one-loop level yielding a branching ratio of 6.8 · 10 -7 . The decay spectra of both decays are very characteristic and provide good tests of the effective chiral symmetry realization of the Standard Model. (Author)

  6. Inclusive central region in perturbative Reggeon calculus

    The single-particle inclusive cross section and the correlation function are studied in the perturbative approach to Gribov's Reggeon calculus; the leading contributions to both functions are evaluated. The large energy rise of the inclusive cross section appears as a consequence of the Pomerons having an intercept larger than 1. The same set of parameters which describes correctly the cross-section data and the triple-Regge region also describes the inclusive data in the central region

  7. LHCb: Measurement of the time-dependent CP asymmetry in $B^{0} \\rightarrow J/\\psi K_S^0$

    The LHCb is one of the LHC experiments, specially designed to study CP violation and rare decays of b-quark. In this scenario, the decay $B^{0} \\rightarrow J/\\psi K_S^0$ is a well-known mode to study CP violation. The final state is the same for both CP eigenstates $B^0$ and $\\overline{B^0}$, which enables the interference through the b-quark oscillations.The CKM angle $\\beta$ can be extracted from the above decay. The time dependent decay rate asymmetry can be written as: $$ \\mathcal{A}_{J/\\psi K_S^0} (t) = S_{J/\\psi K_S^0} \\sin(\\Delta m_d t) - C_{J/\\psi K_S^0} \\cos( \\Delta m_d t) $$ where, in the standard model, the parameters $S_{J/\\psi K_S^0}$ and $C_{J/\\psi K_S^0}$ are connected to the CKM angle $\\beta$ through: $$S_{J/\\psi K_S^0} = \\sin 2 \\beta \\, \\rm{ and } \\, C_{J/\\psi K_S^0} = 0 $$ Here we report the time-dependent analysis in the $B^{0} \\rightarrow J/\\psi (\\mu^{+} \\mu^{-}) K_S^0 (\\pi^{+} \\pi^{-})$ decays.

    An experiment performed at the Brookhaven National Laboratory alternating-gradient synchrotron has yielded six events above negligible background which satisfy criteria for the decay K L0 -->µ+µ-. The K L0 flux, measured by means of the decay K L0 --> pi + pi -, leads to a value for the branching ratio Gamma (K L0 -->µ+µ-) / Gamma (KL-->all)=11 x 10-9.

  9. K0 finding efficiencies in increasing luminosities

    1993-01-01

    In early LHC running it is anticipated that experiments will obtain luminosities of 10 32 cm -2 sec -1 , during which typically only one interaction per event will be obtained. But at higher luminosities, necessary for any Higgs and myriad other searches, experiments will have to deal with up to 50 distinct primary processes. Most will be minimum bias, and easily distinguished in terms of trigger. They can still, of course, confuse analysis of high P T events. When it comes to B events, the confusion even from minimum bias events becomes more acute, since B events are not open-quotes high P T close quotes in this environment. The need for vertex discrimination, particularly in z, is well understood; however, a collateral effect - the increasing difficulty in finding tracks at all - has received little attention. The authors show the distribution of the K 0 in the Pythia process B → J/ψK 0 in the space γ vs. η. Confusion in reconstructing the K 0 is acute for many reasons, not the least of which is the way their pions are boosted forward, and even out of acceptance. Extra luminosity merely increases the problems in finding K 0 's, so it must not be assumed that 10 33 cm -2 sec -1 is ten times better than 10 32 cm -2 sec -1

  10. Subthreshold and near-threshold K+-meson photoproduction on nuclei

    The inclusive K + -meson production in photon-induced reactions in the near-threshold and subthreshold energy regimes is analyzed for the one-step (γN → K + Y, Y = Λ, Σ) incoherent production processes on the basis of an appropriate new folding model that takes properly into account the struck-target nucleon-removal energy and the internal momentum distribution (nucleon spectral function), extracted from recent quasielastic-electron-scattering experiments and from many-body calculations based on realistic models of NN interaction. Simple parametrizations of the total and differential cross sections for K + production in photon-nucleon collisions are presented. A comparison of the model calculations of the K + differential cross sections for γ 12 C interactions in the threshold region with existing experimental data is given, which displays the contributions to K + production at considered incident energies from the use of the single-particle part, as well as high momentum and high removal energy part, of the nucleon spectral function. Detailed predictions for the K + total and differential cross sections for γ 2 H, γ 12 C, and γ 208 Pb interactions at subthreshold and near-threshold energies are provided. The effect of the uncertainties in the elementary K + -production cross sections on the K + yield is explored

    We are interested in the analysis of the three-body decays of B{sup 0} → K{sup *0}π{sup +}π{sup -} and B{sup +} → K{sup *+}π{sup +}π{sup -}. There are tree and penguin diagrams for these decay modes in the naive factorization approach and the transition matrix element of them is factorized into a B → π{sup +}π{sup -} form factor multiplied by 0K{sup *} decay constant and B → K{sup *} form factor multiplied into 0 → π{sup +}π{sup -} weak and electromagnetic vertices form factor. We investigate these decays by using the Dalitz plot analysis. We use the general form of this technique for the calculation of the B{sup 0} → K{sup *0}π{sup +}π{sup -} and B{sup +} → K{sup *+}π{sup +}π{sup -} decays and obtain the values (3.74 ± 0.50) x 10{sup -5} and (9.64 ± 1.37) x 10{sup -5} for the branching ratios, while the experimental results are (5.50 ± 0.50) x 10{sup -5} and (7.50 ± 1.00) x 10{sup -5}, respectively. The branching ratios obtained by applying the Dalitz plot analysis are compatible with the experimental results. (orig.)

    Inclusive D *± production is measured in deep-inelastic ep scattering at HERA with the H1 detector. In addition, the production of dijets in events with a D *± meson is investigated. The analysis covers values of photon virtuality 2≤Q 2 ≤100 GeV 2 and of inelasticity 0.05≤y≤0.7. Differential cross sections are measured as a function of Q 2 and x and of various D *± meson and jet observables. Within the experimental and theoretical uncertainties all measured cross sections are found to be adequately described by next-to-leading order (NLO) QCD calculations, based on the photon-gluon fusion process and DGLAP evolution, without the need for an additional resolved component of the photon beyond what is included at NLO. A reasonable description of the data is also achieved by a prediction based on the CCFM evolution of partons involving the k T -unintegrated gluon distribution of the proton. (orig.)

    The inclusive and fiducial $t\\bar{t}$ production cross-sections are measured in the lepton+jets channel using 20.2 fb$^{-1}$ of proton--proton collision data at a centre-of-mass energy of 8 TeV recorded with the ATLAS detector at the LHC. Major systematic uncertainties due to the modelling of the jet energy scale and $b$-tagging efficiency are constrained by separating selected events into three disjoint regions. In order to reduce systematic uncertainties on the most important background, the W+jets process is modelled using Z+jets events in a data-based approach. The inclusive $t\\bar{t}$ cross-section is measured with a precision of 5.7% to be $\\sigma_{\\text{inc}}(t\\bar{t})$ = 248.3 $\\pm$ 0.7 (stat.) $\\pm$ 12.8 (syst.) $\\pm$ 4.7 (lumi.) pb, assuming a top-quark mass of 172.5 GeV. The result is in agreement with the Standard Model prediction. The cross-section is also measured in a phase space close to that of the selected data. The fiducial cross-section is $\\sigma_{\\text{fid}}(t\\bar{t})$ = 48.8 $\\pm$ 0.1 (...

    A combined mass and particle identification fit is used to make the first observation of the decay B(s)(0) --> D(s)(+/-)K(-/+) and measure the branching fraction of B(s)(0) --> D(s)(+/-)K(-/+) relative to B(s)(0) --> D(s)(+)pi(-). This analysis uses 1.2 fb(-1) integrated luminosity of pp collisions at square root(s) = 1.96 TeV collected with the CDF II detector at the Fermilab Tevatron collider. We observe a B(s)(0) --> D(s)(+/-)K(-/+) signal with a statistical significance of 8.1 sigma and measure B(B(s)(0) --> D(s)(+/-)K(-/+) /B(B(s)(0) --> D(s)(+)pi(-) 0.097+/-0.018(stat) +/- 0.009(syst).

    In 36 pb$^{-1}$ of $pp$ collisions at a centre-of-mass energy $\\sqrt{s}$ = 7 TeV, we observe for the first time the decay $\\bar{B}^0_s \\to D^0 K^{*0}$. The $\\bar{B}^0_s \\to D^0 K^{*0}$ decay mode is a potentially dangerous background for the Cabibbo suppressed decay $B^0 \\to \\bar{D}^0 K^{*0}$ used in the measurement of the CKM angle $\\gamma$. A clear signal of 34.5$\\pm$6.9 events is obtained with a statistical significance over 9 standard deviations and we measure its branching ration relative to the $\\bar{B}^0 \\to D^0\\rho^0$ branching ratio.

    The production of the neutral strange hadrons K 0 S , Λ and anti Λ has been measured in ep collisions at HERA using the ZEUS detector. Cross sections, baryon-to-meson ratios, relative yields of strange and charged light hadrons, Λ (anti Λ) asymmetry and polarization have been measured in three kinematic regions: Q 2 >25 GeV 2 ; 5 2 2 ; and in photoproduction (Q 2 ≅0), in which the presence of two hadronic jets, each with at least 5 GeV transverse energy, was required. The measurements agree in general with Monte Carlo models and are consistent with measurements made at e + e - colliders, except for an enhancement of baryon relative to meson production in photoproduction.

    We present a measurement of the asymmetry A_{CP} between same-sign inclusive dilepton samples ℓ^{+}ℓ^{+} and ℓ^{-}ℓ^{-} (ℓ=e, μ) from semileptonic B decays in ϒ(4S)→BB[over ¯] events, using the complete data set recorded by the BABAR experiment near the ϒ(4S) resonance, corresponding to 471×10^{6} BB[over ¯] pairs. The asymmetry A_{CP} allows comparison between the mixing probabilities P(B[over ¯]^{0}→B^{0}) and P(B^{0}→B[over ¯]^{0}), and therefore probes CP and T violation. The result, A_{CP}=[-3.9±3.5(stat)±1.9(syst)]×10^{-3}, is consistent with the standard model expectation.

    Photon plus jet production has been studied by the D0 experiment in Run II of the Fermilab Tevatron Collider at a centre of mass energy of {radical}s = 1.96 TeV. Measurements of the inclusive photon, inclusive photon plus jet, photon plus heavy flavour jet cross sections and double parton interactions in photon plus three jet events are presented. They are based on integrated luminosities between 0.4 fb{sup -1} and 1.0 fb{sup -1}. The results are compared to perturbative QCD calculations in various approximations.

    Full Text Available Abstract Background Genomic selection is a recently developed technology that is beginning to revolutionize animal breeding. The objective of this study was to estimate marker effects to derive prediction equations for direct genomic values for 16 routinely recorded traits of American Angus beef cattle and quantify corresponding accuracies of prediction. Methods Deregressed estimated breeding values were used as observations in a weighted analysis to derive direct genomic values for 3570 sires genotyped using the Illumina BovineSNP50 BeadChip. These bulls were clustered into five groups using K-means clustering on pedigree estimates of additive genetic relationships between animals, with the aim of increasing within-group and decreasing between-group relationships. All five combinations of four groups were used for model training, with cross-validation performed in the group not used in training. Bivariate animal models were used for each trait to estimate the genetic correlation between deregressed estimated breeding values and direct genomic values. Results Accuracies of direct genomic values ranged from 0.22 to 0.69 for the studied traits, with an average of 0.44. Predictions were more accurate when animals within the validation group were more closely related to animals in the training set. When training and validation sets were formed by random allocation, the accuracies of direct genomic values ranged from 0.38 to 0.85, with an average of 0.65, reflecting the greater relationship between animals in training and validation. The accuracies of direct genomic values obtained from training on older animals and validating in younger animals were intermediate to the accuracies obtained from K-means clustering and random clustering for most traits. The genetic correlation between deregressed estimated breeding values and direct genomic values ranged from 0.15 to 0.80 for the traits studied. Conclusions These results suggest that genomic estimates
