Measurement of the Ds Lifetime
We report the results of a precise measurement of the Ds meson lifetime based
on 1662 +/- 56 fully reconstructed Ds -> phi pi decays, from the charm
hadroproduction experiment E791 at Fermilab. Using an unbinned maximum
likelihood fit, we measure the Ds lifetime to be 0.518 +/- 0.014 +/- 0.007 ps.
The ratio of the measured Ds lifetime to the world average D0 lifetime is 1.25
+/- 0.04. This result differs from unity by six standard deviations, indicating
significantly different lifetimes for the Ds and the D0.Comment: 12 pages, 3 figures, 2 table. LaTe

We report the results of a search for the flavor-changing neutral-current
decays and in

Experimental evidence for a light and broad scalar resonance in decay
From a sample of decay, we find
. Using a coherent amplitude analysis
to fit the Dalitz plot of this decays, we find strong evidence that a scalar
resonance of mass MeV/ and width MeV/ accounts for approximately half of all decays.Comment: 10 pages, 3 eps figure
Direct measurement of the pion valence quark momentum distribution, the pion light-cone wave function squared
We present the first direct measurements of the pion valence quark momentum
distribution which is related to the square of the pion light-cone wave
function. The measurements were carried out using data on diffractive
dissociation of 500 GeV/c into di-jets from a platinum target at
Fermilab experiment E791. The results show that the light-cone
asymptotic wave function, which was developed using perturbative QCD methods,
describes the data well for or more. We also
measured the transverse momentum distribution of the diffractive di-jets.Comment: 13 pages, 4 figure

A Search for Jet Handedness in Hadronic Decays
We have searched for signatures of polarization in hadronic jets from decays using the ``jet handedness'' method. The polar angle
asymmetry induced by the high SLC electron-beam polarization was used to
separate quark jets from antiquark jets, expected to be left- and
right-polarized, respectively. We find no evidence for jet handedness in our
global sample or in a sample of light quark jets and we set upper limits at the
95% C.L. of 0.063 and 0.099 respectively on the magnitude of the analyzing
power of the method proposed by Efremov {\it et al.}Comment: Revtex, 8 pages, 2 figure
