Limits on J ψ and ϒproduction in e + e - interactions at s = 29 GeV
A search has been made for the inclusive production of J ψ (3.1) and Υ{hooked} (9.4) mesons in e+e- interactions at 29 GeV, via their decay into two leptons. No signal is observed in the J ψ region, nor in the Υ{hooked} region. The limits on the cross sections are σ(e+e- → ψX) < 4.4 × 10-36cm2, and σ(e+e- → Υ{hooked}X) < 4.7 × 10-36 cm2. The same data yield limits on the branching ratios for the b quark BR (b → ψX) < 4.9% and BR (b → ℓ+ℓ-X) < 0.8%. © 1983

Variation of the strong coupling constant from a measurement of the jet energy spread in e+e- annihilation
A measurement of jet energy spread in the reaction e+e- → hadrons is presented. Using a jet calculus model for the jet development we determine the variation of the strong coupling constant with respect to momentum transfer. The observed variation is consistent with that expected for QCD over a wide range of momentum transfers. This method alone is not sufficient to distinguish QCD from simple limited transverse momentum models. © 1983

Inclusive electron production in e+e- annihilation at 29 GeV
The total momentum and transverse momentum spectra of electrons in e+e- annihilation at 29 GeV have been measured. The inclusive cross section is determined to be 14.4±1.6±5.2 pb for momenta greater than 2 GeV/c. The average semielectronic branching ratios of charm and bottom quarks are measured to be (6.3±1.2±2.1)% and (11.6±2.1±1.7)%, respectively. The fragmentation function for bottom quarks is determined to be peaked at high z, with zb=0.75±0.05±0.04. © 1983 The American Physical Society

Pion pair production from γγ collisions at the SLAC e+e- storage ring PEP
We have studied several features of the production of charged-hardon pairs by γγ collisions. We have measured the f0 partial width Γf0→γγ(Q2) for Q2 in the range

Decays of the (3097) to baryon-antibaryon final states
A high-statistics study of decays into baryon final states has been done with the Mark II detector at SPEAR. A detailed test of baryon-antibaryon decay modes is presented. Substantial resonance formation is observed in multibody decays of the involving baryons. Branching ratios for a large number of decay modes are given, including the radiative decay pp. The flavor-SU(3)-forbidden decays (1385)+charge conjugate are observed with substantial branching ratios. © 1984 The American Physical Society

Measurement of K* and K0 inclusive rates in e+e- annihilation at 29 GeV.
We have measured the K0+K0 inclusive cross section in e+e- annihilation at 29 GeV with the Mark II detector SLAC PEP. We find 1.270.030.15 K0+K0 per hadronic event. We have also used time-of-flight particle identification to measure the K rate over the momentum range 300900 MeV/c. © 1985 The American Physical Society
