Search for anomalous production of diphoton events with missing transverse energy at CDF and limits on gauge-mediated supersymmetry-breaking models
Physical Review D - Particles, Fields, Gravitation and Cosmology 71:3 (2005)
Abstract:
We present the results of a search for anomalous production of diphoton events with large missing transverse energy using the Collider Detector at Fermilab. In 202 pb -1 of pp̄ collisions at √s = 1.96 TeV we observe no candidate events, with an expected standard model background of 0.27 ± 0.07(stat) ± 0.10(syst) events. The results exclude a lightest chargino of mass less than 167 GeV/c 2, and lightest neutralino of mass less than 93 GeV/c 2 at 95% C.L. in a gauge-mediated supersymmetry-breaking model with a light gravitino. © 2005 The American Physical Society.Search for X(3872) in γγ fusion and radiative production at CLEO

Abstract:
We report on a search for the recently reported X(3872) state using 15.1 fb -1 of e + e - data taken in the √s = 9.46-11.30 GeV region. Separate searches for the production of the X(3872) in untagged γγ fusion and e +e - annihilation following initial state radiation are made by taking advantage of the unique angular correlation between the leptons from the decay J/ψ → l + l - in X(3872) decay to π + π - J/ψ. No signals are observed in either case, and 90% confidence upper limits are established as (2J + 1)ΓOn the Soft Excess in the X-Ray Spectrum of Circinus X-1: Revisitation of the Distance to Circinus X-1
