Abstract:

We have measured the polarization of J/ψ and ψ(2S) mesons produced in pp collisions at √ = 1.8 TeV using data collected at the Collider Detector at Fermilab during 1992–1995. The polarization of promptly produced J/ψ [ψ(2S)] mesons is isolated from those produced in B-hadron decay and measured over the kinematic range 4 [5.5] < PT < 20 GeV/c and |y| < 0.6. For PT ≾ 12 GeV/c we do not observe significant polarization in the prompt component. © 2000 The American Physical Society.

Abstract:

We report the first direct measurement of (Formula presented) rapidity correlations in (Formula presented) collisions at (Formula presented) We select events with a high transverse momentum muon accompanied by a jet, and a second jet associated with a decay vertex displaced from the (Formula presented) interaction vertex. Two independent samples are obtained corresponding to events with a forward (Formula presented) or central (Formula presented) muon. We measure the ratio of forward to central (Formula presented) production to be (Formula presented) in good agreement with the next-to-leading order QCD prediction (Formula presented) © 1999 The American Physical Society.
