A New Prediction for Large Rapidity Gap Events in e+ e- Annihilation

A new approach is proposed to predict large rapidity gap events in e⁺ e^- annihilation. It is based on the mechanism of soft color interaction, which is successful in describing large rapidity gap events in ep collision. It is shown that the ratio of large rapidity gap signal to the background brought by fluctuations is greatly enhanced at appropriate conditions. So the mechanism of soft color interaction can be tested in e⁺ e^- annihilation.     

Rare Decays B→K(*) e+ e- Test of the Standard Model

The exclusive B→K^(*) e⁺ e^- decays are studied in the topcolor-assisted technicolor model and in the minimal technicolor model. We find that the angular distribution and the dilepton mass distribution in B→K^(*) e⁺ e^- which can be reliably predicted in the large dilepton mass region, are very sensitive to the actual form of the new interaction. This provides a good test to physics beyond the standard model.     

On the conventional QED interpretation of the GSI ee narrow resonances

A possible mechanism for the GSI e⁺e^- narrow resonances as being due to non-perturbative effects of conventional QED is proposed. An application of the quasi-potential approach discloses a set of new resonances in a system of two charged particles. Numerical calculations agree with data on e⁺e^- and pp narrow resonances. Additional new resonances are predicted for e⁺e^-, pp, e^-e^- systems.     

A search for charged Higgs bosons at tristan

We searched for pair production of charged Higgs bosons via e⁺e⁻ annihilation, using data (23.3 pb⁻) collected by the TOPAZ detector in the energy range . We observed no evidence for charged Higgs pair production and extended the excluded region in the M_H^±---BR (hadron) plane. The 95% CL lower mass limit is the most stringent for BR (hadron) = 0.6, giving m_H^±<22 GeV.     

Study on υμ, υγ, Decays and CP Non-Invariance at Early Epoch of the Universe

We study the υ_μ and υ_γ decays in the early epoch of the universe. If m_υγ > 2m_e, there would be a CP asymmetry between υ_γ→e⁺+e^-+υ_e and υ_γ→e⁺+ e^-+ υ_e. The resultant CP non-invariance is a function of temperature and density and can reach l0^-7 for a reasonable temperature range, but it is noticed that if m_υγ > 2υ_μ～200 MeV, the CP non-invariance can be much larger.     

Two-component picture of ee inclusive processes

From the hypothesis that the characteristics of hadronic production in e⁺e⁻ are those seen in transverse distributions of hadron-hadron collisions we are led to consider the inclusive distributions in e⁺e⁻ annihilation as composed of two contributions, a cluster component which contains the e⁺e⁻ resonances and a parton component. The decay of the cluster is described by the same production radii as those observed in hadron-hadron collisions. The parton component obeys asymptotically Bjorken scaling and the approach to scaling is set by a mass of 1.2 GeV. Within this picture we give a simple explanation of the energy dependence of the average charged energy and the multiplicity.     

Effects of Final-State Interactions on Inclusive Spin-Half Baryon Production from Time-Like Photon Fragmentation

In contrast to the hadronic tensor in the deeply inelastic scattering, we find that owing to the final-state interactions, time reversal invariance cannot make any constraint to the general expression of the photon fragmentation tensor for inclusive spin-half bafyon production. Correspondingly, there exists a novel fragmentation structure function F(z, Q²) that has no correspondence to any hadronic structure functions in the hadronic tensor of the deeply inelastic electron scattering off the spin-half baryon. Phenomenologically, F(z, Q²) determines the transverse polarization of the inclusively detected baryon in unpolarized electron-positron annihilation. In relation to the large transverse A polarization puzzle in fixed-target experiments, we suggest measuring the Λ polarization in e^- + e⁺ → Λ + X .     

Process e^-у→ e^-H in Littlest Higgs Model

In the context of the littlest Higgs （LH） model, we estimate the production cross section of the process e^-у→ e^-H in the future high-energy linear e^＋e^- collider （ILC） with the center-of-mass （CM） energy √S = 500 GeV. Our numerical results show that the contributions of the LH model Co this process are very small in most of the parameter space allowed by the electroweak precision measurement data, and are very diffcult to be detected in the future ILC experiments.     

Single Production of Top Quark via e-γ Collision in Left-Right Twin Higgs Model

In the context of the left-right twin Higgs (LRTH) model, we fist study single production of the standard model (SM) top quark via e^-γ collisions. We find that the corrections of the LRTH model to the cross section of the process e^-γ→ν_ebt might be observed only for f≤750 GeV and the heavy top quark mass scale M≥500 GeV in future high energy linear e⁺e^- collider (LC) experiment with the center-of-mass (CM) energy s^½=500 GeV and a yearly integrated luminosity of £=100 fb^-1. We also consider single production of the heavy top quark T via e^-γ collisions. Our numerical results show that the possible signals of the heavy top quark T might be observed via the decay channel T→φ⁺b→tbb in future LC experiment with s^½=3 TeV and £=500 fb^-1.     

正负电子湮灭过程的核子激发态N*产生(英文)

目前,正负电子湮灭过程的核子激发态N*产生的实验数据主要来自于粲偶素能区。粲偶素衰变到核子激发态过程类似于其类时电磁形状因子测量过程,正反粲夸克短程湮灭提供了近乎于点源的胶子强子化过程。与γN,eN,πN反应互补,这一新的N*产生源具有同位旋和低自旋筛选的优势。综述了正负电子湮灭过程的核子激发态N*产生的实验情况和相关的唯象进展,同时讨论未来发展的一些新方向,如正负电子湮灭过程的核子激发态N*产物的一些新来源等。Up to now, the N* production from e+e- annihilations has been studied only around charmonium region. Charmonium decays to N*s are analogous to (time-like) EM form factors in that the charm quark annihilation provides a nearly pointlike (ggg) current. Complementary to other sources, such as πN, eN and γN reactions, this new source for N* spectroscopy has a few advantages, such as an isospin filter and a low spin filter. The experimental results on N* from e+e- annihilations and their phenomenological implications are reviewed. Possible new sources on N* production from e+e- annihilations are discussed.     

The Generalized Moment Analysis (GMA) and Spin Analysis for Boson Resonances

Our analyais^[1] has shown that there exist sensitive and insensitive regions to determine the spin (J = 2 or 4) of ξ(2230) in the general helicity formalism. Whereaa it just falls into the insensitive region by using current data of ξ. If the number of events is not sufficient it is difficult to determine the spin of ξ^[2]. In this paper we generalize the moment analysis^[3]. We define the photon angular distribution H_J(θ_τ, LM) for the moment of process e⁺ +R^- → J/ψ → τ + ξ, ξ → p + p and the weighted moment by choosing appropriate weight function. They provide an effective criterion to determine the spin of ξ. We also use the method to discuss LIE puzzle for process e⁺ + e^- → J/ψ → τ + B₁ B → P₁ + P₂ + P₃.     

The decay ω(782)→5π in chiral theory.

The arguments are put forward that the many pion decays ω→2π⁺2π⁻π⁰ and π⁺π⁻3π⁰ provide an ideal test site for testing the predictions of chiral models of the vector meson decays into many pions. Using the approach based on the Weinberg Lagrangian or, in a new language, the Lagrangian of hidden local symmetry added with the term induced by the anomalous Lagrangian of Wess and Zumino, the partial widths of these decays are evaluated, and their excitation curves in e⁺e⁻ annihilation are obtained. The discussed are the perspectives of the experimental study of the decays ω→5π in e⁺e⁻ annihilation and photoproduction.     

Isosinglet neutral heavy lepton production in high energy e-γ collisions

We evaluate the potential for searching for isosinglet neutral heavy leptons (N), such as right-handed neutrinos, in the next generation of e⁺e⁻ linear colliders, paying special attention to contributions from the various γe→WN initiated by photons from beamstrahlung and laser back-scattering. We find that these mechanisms are both competitive and complementary to the standard e⁺e⁻→νN annihilation processe for producing neutral heavy leptons in these machines and greatly extends the search range over HERA and LEP200.     

Higgs and Bottom Quarks Associated Production at High Energy Colliders in the Littlest Higgs Model with T-Parity

In the littlest Higgs Model with T-parity,we discuss the Higgs production in association with bottom quarks at the LHC and future electron-positron collider.We calculate the cross sections of production channels pp→bb H,bb→H and bg→b H at 14 Te V LHC and the cross sections of production channel e~+e~-→bb H in(un)polarized beams at the lowest order.In order to investigate the observability,we display some typical final state distributions in the Higgs to diphoton channel.     

Single Charged Top-Pion Production at the Next Generation e+e- Colliders

The single charged top-pion production processes e⁺e^-→t\bar{b}Π_t^- and e⁺e^-→ W⁺Π_t^- are studied in the framework of top-color-assisted technicolor (TC2) model. Our studies show that the cross section σ(e⁺e^-→t\bar{b}Π_t^-) reaches the level of tens of fb and σ(e⁺e^-→W⁺Π_t^-) reaches the level of a few fb. With the yearly integrated luminosity of L～500 fb^-1 expected at the planned colliders, one could collect thousands of charged top-pion of events via the process e⁺e^-→t\bar{b}Π_t^- and hundreds of events via the process e⁺e^-→W⁺Π_t^-. The flavor changing decay mode Π_t^-→b\bar{c} is the best channel to detect charged top-pion due to the clean SM background. With a large number of events and the clean background, the charged top-pion should be observable at the planned colliders. Therefore, our studies in this paper can help us to search for charged top-pion, and furthermore, to test the TC2 model.     

Observation of inclusive η production in ee annihilation at CM energies of 34 GeV

The inclusive production of η mesons at CM energies around 34 GeV has been studied for e⁺e⁻ annihilation into hadrons. The average number of η-mesons per event is found to be 0.72 ± 0.10 (stat.) ± 0.18 (syst.). The abundance of η's is studied as a function of event shape parameters and it is compared to the corresponding π⁰ rates.     

Study of Baryon Antibaryon Rapidity Correlation in e+e- Annihilation by Quark Combination Model

We use quark combination model to study baryon antibaryon rapidity correlation in e⁺e^- annihilation and compare our predictions with the available data. We find that these results and relevant properties are all consistent with data. So the evidence to rule out quark combination model which has long been cited in literatures does not exist.     

Associated Productions of HZZ and HHZ at Linear Colliders in Large Extra Dimension Model

In this paper we investigate the effects of the large extra dimensions on the two processes e⁺e^-→ H⁰Z⁰Z⁰ and e⁺e^-→ H⁰Z⁰Z⁰ at linear colliders in both unpolarized and polarized collision modes. We find that the virtual Kaluza-Klein graviton exchange can significantly enhance the cross section from their standard model expectations for these two processes. The results show that the LED effect on the process e⁺e^-→ H⁰Z⁰Z⁰ allows the observation limits on the effective scale M_S to be probed up to 9.75 TeV and 10.1 TeV in the unpolarized and +-(λ_e⁺=1/2, λ_e^-=-1/2) polarized beam collision modes (with P_e⁺=0.6, P_e^-=0.8), respectively. For the process e⁺e^-→ H⁰Z⁰Z⁰, these limits on M_S can be probed up to 6.06 TeV and 6.38 TeV in the unpolarized and polarized collision modes separately. We find that the λ_e⁺=1/2, λ_e^-=-1/2 polarization collision mode in both process e⁺e^-→ H⁰Z⁰Z⁰ and e⁺e^-→ H⁰Z⁰Z⁰ may provide a possibility to improve the sensitivity in probing the LED effects.     

Hidden-charm Pentaquark Production at e~+e~- Colliders

We study one possible production mechanism for the hidden-charm pentaquark via a color-octet cc pair fragmentation in e~+e~-collision.The pentaquark production at B factory energy is dominated by e~+e~-→ccg→P_c+X,while at Z~0pole energy,there are several partonic processes playing significant role.Our results show that it is possible to search for the direct pentaquark production signal at e~+e~-colliders,which is important to understand the properties of pentaquark.     

Hadronic production by ee collisions at the energy 990 MeV with the Orsay storage ring

Data were taken at the energy 2E = 990 MeV to search for multibody events, with the same large solid angle detector which has been used for the measurement of the , ω andφ production by e⁺e⁻ annilations. Assuming a π⁺π⁻π⁰π⁰ production by the quasi two-body process e⁺e⁻ → → ωπ⁰ we give the correspondi ng cross section σ(e⁺e⁻ → π⁺π⁻π⁰π⁰) = (1.1 ± 0.5) 10⁻³² cm². Since no events with 3 and 4 charged pions have been observed σ(e⁺e⁻ → π⁺π⁻π⁰π⁻) 1.5 × 10⁻³³ cm².
