Abstract:

A strong signal for double parton scattering (DP) is observed in a 16 pb-1 sample of p̄ p → γ + 3 jets + X data from the CDF experiment at the Fermilab Tevatron. The process-independent DP parameter, σeff, is obtained without reference to theoretical calculations by comparing observed DP events to events with hard scatterings at separate p̄ p collisions. The result, σeff = (14.5 ± 1.7-2.3+1.7) mb, represents a significant improvement over previous measurements. For the first time, the Feynman x dependence of the σeff parameter is investigated, and no dependence is seen.

Abstract:

We present the results of a search for third generation leptoquark (LQ) pairs in 110 ± 8 pb-1 of pp collisions at √s = 1.8 TeV recorded by the Collider Detector at Fermilab. We assume third generation leptoquarks decay to a τ lepton and a b quark with branching ratio β. We observe one candidate event, consistent with standard model background expectations. We place upper limits on σ(p̄p → LQLQ) · β2 as a function of the leptoquark mass MLQ. We exclude at 95% confidence level scalar leptoquarks with MLQ < 99 GeV/c2, gauge vector leptoquarks with MLQ < 225 GeV/c2, and nongauge vector leptoquarks with MLQ < 170 GeV/c2 for β= 1.

Abstract:

We report the first observation of diffractively produced W bosons.In a sample of W → eν events produced in pp collisions at √s=1.8TeV, we find an excess of events with a forward rapidity gap, which is attributed to diffraction.The probability that this excess is consistent with nondiffractive production is 1.1×10−4 (3.8σ).The relatively low fraction of W+ jet events observed within this excess implies that mainly quarks from the Pomeron, which mediates diffraction, participate in W production.The diffractive to nondiffractive W production ratio is found to be RW=(1.15±0.55)%.© 1997 The American Physical Society.
