Search for pentaquarks decaying to Ξπ in deep inelastic scattering at HERA
Physics Letters, Section B: Nuclear, Elementary Particle and High-Energy Physics 610:3-4 (2005) 212-224
Abstract:
A search for pentaquarks decaying to Ξ-π- (Ξ-π+) and corresponding antiparticles has been performed with the ZEUS detector at HERA. The data sample consists of deep inelastic ep scattering events at centre-of-mass energies of 300 and 318 GeV, and corresponds to 121 pb -1 of integrated luminosity. A clear signal for Ξ0(1530) →Ξ-π+ was observed. However, no signal for any new baryonic state was observed at higher masses in either the Ξ-π- or Ξ-π+ channels. The searches in the antiparticle channels were also negative. Upper limits on the ratio of a possible Ξ3/2 - (Ξ3/20) signal to the Ξ0(1530) signal were set in the mass range 1650-2350 MeV. © 2005 Elsevier B.V.

Abstract:
Energetic neutrons produced in ep collisions at HERA have been studied with the ZEUS detector in the photoproduction regime at a mean photon-proton center-of-mass energy of 220 GeV. The neutrons carry a large fraction 0.64Forward jet production in deep inelastic ep scattering and low-x parton dynamics at HERA
