Abstract:

The results of a search for leptoquark (LQ) pairs in (85.2 ±3.7) pb-1 of pp̄ collider data collected by the DO experiments were presented. Scalar leptoquarks for the masses less than 98 GeV/c2, vector leptoquarks for masses less than 200 GeV/c2 and coupling which produced the minimum cross-section were excluded. Results showed absence of an evidence for leptoquark production and a limit was set on νν + jets as a function of the mass of leptoquark.

Abstract:

We present the results of a search for leptoquark (LQ) pairs in (85.2+/-3.7) pb(-1) of pp* collider data collected by the D0 experiment at the Fermilab Tevatron. We observe no evidence for leptoquark production and set a limit on sigma(pp*-->LQLQ-->nunu+jets) as a function of the mass of the leptoquark (m(LQ)). Assuming the decay LQ-->nuq, we exclude scalar leptoquarks for m(LQ) < 98 GeV/c(2), and vector leptoquarks for m(LQ) < 200 GeV/c(2) and coupling which produces the minimum cross section, at a 95% confidence level.

Abstract:

New measurements of the η and K0 masses have been performed using decays to 3π0 with the NA48 detector at the CERN SPS. Using symmetric decays to reduce systematic effects, the results M(η) = 547.843 ± 0.051 MeV/c2 and M(K0) = 497.625 ± 0.031 MeV/c2 were obtained. © 2002 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
