Abstract:

The photoproduction reaction γp → μ+ μ-p has been studied in ep interactions using the ZEUS detector at HERA. The data sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 43.2pb-1. The Υ meson has been observed in photoproduction for the first time. The sum of the products of the elastic Υ(1S), Υ(2S),Υ(3S) photoproduction cross sections with their respective branching ratios is determined to be 13.3 ± 6.0(stat.)-2.3+2.7(syst.) pb at a mean photon-proton centre of mass energy of 120 GeV. The cross section is above the prediction of a perturbative QCD model. © 1998 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

Abstract:

We report the observations of the decays B+ → ψ(2S)K+ and B0 → ψ(2S)K*(892)0 in pp̄ collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 1.8 TeV using a 110 pb-1 data sample recorded by the Collider Detector at Fermilab. We also reconstruct the decays B+ → J/ψK+ and B0 → J/ψK*(892)0 and measure the six ratios of branching fractions of these four decays. The relative branching-fraction results are shown to be consistent with phenomenological factorization calculations of hadronic B-meson decays. We use the world-average branching fraction ℬ(B+ → J/ψK+) to derive ℬ(B+ → ψ(2S)K+) = (0.56±0.08±0.10) × 10-3, ℬ(B0 → ψ(2S)K*(892)0) = (0.92±0.20±0.16) × 10-3, and ℬ(B0 → J/ψK*(892)0) = (1.78±0.14±0.29) × 10-3, where the first and second uncertainties are statistical and systematic, respectively.
