Abstract:

Using data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 79pb−1, D0 has searched for events containing multiple jets and large missing transverse energy in pp¯ collisions at √s = 1.8TeV at the Fermilab Tevatron collider. Observing no significant excess beyond what is expected from the standard model, we set limits on the masses of squarks and gluinos and on the model parameters m0 and m1/2, in the framework of the minimal low-energy supergravity models of supersymmetry. For tanβ=2 and A0 = 0, with μ < 0, we exclude all models with m˜q<250 GeV/c2. For models with equal squark and gluino masses, we exclude m < 260 GeV/c2. © 1999 The American Physical Society.

Abstract:

This paper presents the first measurement of inclusive J/ψ production cross section in the forward pseudorapidity region 2.5≤|ηJ/ψ|≤3.7 in pp¯ collisions at √S=1.8 TeV. The results are based on 9.8 pb−1 of data collected using the D0 detector at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider. The inclusive J/ψ cross section for transverse momenta between 1 and 16 GeV/c is compared with theoretical models of charmonium production. © 1998 The American Physical Society.

Abstract:

We report a measurement of the atmospheric neutrino flavor ratio, R, using a sample of quasi-elastic neutrino interactions occurring in an iron medium. The flavor ratio (tracks/showers) of atmospheric neutrinos in a 3.9 fiducial kiloton-year exposure of Soudan 2 is 0.64 ± 0.11(stat.) ± 0.06(syst.) of that expected. Important aspects of our main analysis have been checked by carrying out two independent, alternative analyses; one is based upon automated scanning, the other uses a multivariate approach for background subtraction. Similar results are found by all three approaches. © 1999 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
