چکیده

We report a new measurement of A c using data obtained by SLD in 1993-98. This measurement uses a vertex tag technique, where the selection of a c hemisphere is based on the reconstructed mass of the charm hadron decay vertex. The method uses the 3D vertexing capabilities of SLD's CCD vertex detector and the small and stable SLC beams to obtain a high c-event tagging efficiency and purity of 28% and 82%, respectively. Charged kaons identified by the CRID detector and the charge of the reconstructed vertex provide an efficient quark-antiquark tag, with the analyzing power calibrated from the data. We obtain a preliminary result of A c = 0.603 ± 0.028 ± 0.023

New experiments in polarised deep inelastic scattering will mainly concentrate on the measurement of semi-inclusive asymmetries. Especially, the upgraded HERMES experiment at DESY and the newly build COMPASS experiment at CERN will investigate the gluon polarisation via open charm and high pT hadron pair production , study in detail the flavour decomposition of the quark helicity distributions ...

We study Compton scattering, γ e → γ e, in the context of the recent proposal for Weak Scale Quantum Gravity (WSQG) with large extra dimensions. It is shown that, with an ultraviolet cutoff M S ∼ 1 TeV for the effective gravity theory, the cross section for this process at the Next Linear Collider (NLC) deviates from the prediction of the Standard Model significantly. Our results suggest that, ...

We show that the asymmetry in the fractional energy of charm versus an-ticharm jets produced in high energy diffractive photoproduction is sensitive to the interference of the Odderon (C = −) and Pomeron (C = +) exchange amplitudes in QCD. We predict the dynamical shape of the asymmetry in a simple model and estimate its magnitude to be of the order 15% using constraints from proton-proton vs. ...
