Abstract:

We have made a precise measurement of the central inclusive jet cross section at √s = 1.8 TeV. The measurement is based on an integrated luminosity of 92pb-1 collected at the Fermilab Tevatron p̄p Collider with the D0 detector. The cross section, reported as a function of jet transverse energy (ET ≥ 60 GeV) in the pseudorapidity interval |±| ≤ 0.5, is in good agreement with predictions from next-to-leading order quantum chromodynamics. © 1999 The American Physical Society.

Abstract:

The decay rate of the neutral K meson KL → e+e-γ has been measured with the NA48 detector at the CERN SPS. A total of 6864 events has been observed with an estimated background of 10 events. The branching ratio is Γ(KL → e+e-γ)/Γ(KL → all) = (1.06 ± 0.02stat ± 0.02sys ± 0.04calc) × 10-5 The parameter αK* describing the relative strength of the two contributing amplitudes to this decay through intermediate pseudoscalar or vector mesons was measured to be αK* = -0.36 ± 0.06stat ± 0.02sys. © 1999 Published by Elsevier Science B.V.

Abstract:

We present a measurement of the Drell-Yan cross section at high dielectron invariant mass using 120 pb-1 of data collected in pp collisions at √ s = 1.8 TeV by the D0 Collaboration during 1992-1996. No deviation from standard model expectations is observed. We use the data to set limits on the quark-electron compositeness scale. The 95% confidence level lower limits on the compositeness scale vary between 3.3 and 6.1 TeV depending on the assumed form of the effective contact interaction. © 1999 The American Physical Society.

Abstract:

We present a measurement of t¯t production in p¯p collisions at √s = 1.8TeV from 110pb-1 of data collected in the all-jets decay channel with the D0 detector at Fermilab. A neural network analysis yields a cross section of 7.1 ± 2.8(stat) ± 1.5(syst)pb at a top quark mass (mt) of 172.1GeV/c2. Using previous D0 measurements from dilepton and single lepton channels, the combined D0 result for the t¯t production cross section is 5.9 ± 1.2(stat) ± 1.1(syst)pb for mt = 172.1GeV/c2. © 1999 The American Physical Society.

Abstract:

We report a measurement of the top quark mass using six candidate events for the process (Formula presented), observed in the D0 experiment at the Fermilab (Formula presented) collider. Using maximum likelihood fits to the dynamics of the decays, we measure a mass for the top quark of (Formula presented). We combine this result with our previous measurement in the (Formula presented) channel to obtain (Formula presented) as the best value of the mass of the top quark measured by D0. © 1999 The American Physical Society.
