Search for first-generation scalar and vector leptoquarks
Physical Review D - Particles, Fields, Gravitation and Cosmology 64:9 (2001)
Abstract:
We describe a search for the pair production of first-generation scalar and vector leptoquarks in the [Formula Presented] and [Formula Presented] channels by the DØ Collaboration. The data are from the 1992–1996 [Formula Presented] run at [Formula Presented] at the Fermilab Tevatron collider. We find no evidence for leptoquark production; in addition, no kinematically interesting events are observed using relaxed selection criteria. The results from the [Formula Presented] and [Formula Presented] channels are combined with those from a previous DØ analysis of the [Formula Presented] channel to obtain 95% confidence level (C.L.) upper limits on the leptoquark pair-production cross section as a function of mass and of [Formula Presented] the branching fraction to a charged lepton. These limits are compared to next-to-leading-order theory to set 95% C.L. lower limits on the mass of a first-generation scalar leptoquark of 225, 204, and 79 [Formula Presented] for [Formula Presented] [Formula Presented] and 0, respectively. For vector leptoquarks with gauge (Yang-Mills) couplings, 95% C.L. lower limits of 345, 337, and 206 [Formula Presented] are set on the mass for [Formula Presented] [Formula Presented] and 0, respectively. Mass limits for vector leptoquarks are also set for anomalous vector couplings. © 2001 The American Physical Society.Differential cross section for w boson production as a function of transverse momentum in p(p)over-bar collisions at √s=1.8 TeV
