Abstract:

Dijet production has been studied in neutral current deep inelastic e+p scattering for 470 < Q2 < 20000 GeV2 with the ZEUS detector at HERA using an integrated luminosity of 38.4 pb-1. Dijet differential cross sections are presented in a kinematic region where both theoretical and experimental uncertainties are small. Next-to-leading-order (NLO) QCD calculations describe the measured differential cross sections well. A QCD analysis of the measured dijet fraction as a function of Q2 allows both a precise determination of αs(Mz) and a test of the energy-scale dependence of the strong coupling constant. A detailed analysis provides an improved estimate of the uncertainties of the NLO QCD cross sections arising from the paxton distribution functions of the proton. The value of αs(Mz), as determined from the QCD fit, is αs (MZ) = 0.1166 ± 0.0019(stat.)+0.0024 -0.0044 (exp.) +0.0057 0.0044(th.). © 2001 Elsevier Science B.V.

Abstract:

Neutron Higgs bosons produced in association with `b' quarks were investigated. Experimental results showed that there was no evidence for the existence of such a signal. The data was interpreted using the Neutral Higgs sector of the supersymmetric extension of standard model. The lower mass limits for neutral Higgs bosons were derived for tanβ values in excess of 35.

Abstract:

The charmonium system was studied by measuring the relative cross sections of the Xc1 and Xc2 produced in pp collisions at √ s = 1.8 TeV. As a result, the ratio of production cross sections was established.

Abstract:

An overview is given of a search for new physics beyond the standard model, assuming nothing about the expected characteristics of the new processes other than they will produce an excess of events at high transverse momentum (PT). A quasi-model-independent strategy (Sleuth) is applied to many exclusive final states in a data sample corresponding to 100 pb1 of pp collisions. The resulting data is analyzed in detail.
