Abstract:

An upper limit for BR(Z0 -»3g) is obtained from a correlation method, which distinguishes statistically between quark and gluon jets by using the difference in their charged particle multiplicity distributions. From the sample of threefold symmetric three-jet events collected by the DELPHI experiment at LEP during 1991-1994, the 95% confidence level upper limit is deduced to be: BR(Zn -> 3g) < 1.6 x 10~2 for the JADE and BR(Z0 -> 3g) < 1.5 x 10~2 for the DURHAM jet-finder.

Abstract:

Using data accumulated by DELPHI during the November 1995 LEP run at 130-136 GeV, searches have been made for events with jets or leptons in conjunction with missing momentum. The results are interpreted in terms of limits on the production of neutralinos, scalar leptons, and scalar quarks.

Abstract:

DELPHI (DEtector with Lepton, Photon and Hadron Identification) is a detector for e+e- physics, designed to provide high granularity over a 4π solid angle, allowing an effective particle identification. It has been operating at the LEP (Large Electron-Positron) collider at CERN since 1989. This article reviews its performance.

Abstract:

A search for pair production of the lightest chargino at √s = 130.4 and 136.3 GeV has been carried out using the data sample corresponding to the 5.92 pb-1 recorded by the DELPHI detector during the high energy run of LEP in the last period of 1995. The theoretical reference model has been the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model with R-parity conservation. The three topologies expected for the decay of a pair of charginos, namely two acoplanar leptons plus missing energy (ℓℓ), two jets and an isolated lepton plus missing energy (jjℓ) and missing energy in a hadronic environment (√s), were investigated. No evidence of a signal was found. Lower mass limits were derived for various scenarios, including the case of a low mass difference between the chargino and the neutralino and of a light sneutrino. The mass limits range between 56.3 GeV/c2 and the kinematic limit.

Abstract:

This letter reports the results of the measurement of single photon production in the reaction e+e- → γ+ invisible particles at centre-of-mass energies √s = 130 and 136 GeV and an integrated luminosity of 5.83 pb-1, collected with the DELPHI detector at LEP. The signal is compatible with the prediction of the Standard Model for the process e+e- → vv̄γ, and the number of neutrino families has been determined to be Nv, = 3.1 ± 0.6. Limits have been derived on anomalous neutral gauge boson couplings and on compositeness in the framework of a specific model.
