Abstract:

A study was performed to search for long-lived charged massive particles in 90 pb-1 of data at CDF. No excess over background was observed. Cross section limits were observed using reference models for the two cases of strongly and weakly produced particles. In the strongly interacting case, these limits extend the excluded mass region to about 200 GeV/c2.

Abstract:

Inclusive event-shape variables have been measured in the current region of the Breit frame for neutral current deep inelastic ep scattering using an integrated luminosity of 45.0 pb-1 collected with the ZEUS detector at HERA. The variables studied included thrust, jet broadening and invariant jet mass. The kinematic range covered was 10 < Q2 < 20480 GeV2 and 6 脳 10-4 < x < 0.6, where Q2 is the virtuality of the exchanged boson and x is the Bjorken variable. The Q dependence of the shape variables has been used in conjunction with NLO perturbative calculations and the Dokshitzer-Webber non-perturbative corrections ('power corrections') to investigate the validity of this approach.
