Asp: a Search for Single Photon Events at Pep*
نویسنده
چکیده
During the past year, two experiments have been carried out at PEP to search for events with a phoJon and large missing transverse momentum. These event searches are particularly sensitive to contributions from supersymmetric photino production but can also be used to search for additional neutrino generations, supersymmetric weak charged currents or the production of any other neutral particle whose interactions in matter are of the order of the weak interaction. The MAC collaboration began modifications of their apparatus during the summer of 1983 to be able to detect photon events with no other observed charged or neutral particles. At the same time, a new experiment, ASP, was approved for installation at the PEP ring to do a high sensitivity search for such events. At the time of the New Particles Conference, the status of the ASP detector and its potential were discussed. In this paper are included those discussions and recent limits derived from the data analyzed during the summer of 1985.

Single Photon Searches at PEP
The MAC and ASP searches for events with a single photon and no other observed particles are reviewed. New results on the number of neutrino generations and limits on selectron, photino, squark and gluino masses from the ASP experiment are presented. Presented at the SLAC Summer Institute on Particle Physics Stanford, California, July 29 August 9, 1985 * Work supported by the Department of Ener...
متن کاملNEW RESULTS FROM ASP ON SINGLE - PHOTON PRODUCTION AT , / ii = 29 GeV
u This Letter reports results of a search for radiative production by e+e-annihilation of particles that interact only weakly in matter. The search has been made in the total data set of 115 pb-l acquired with the ASP detector at ~the SLAC storage ring PEP (& = 29 GeV). No anomalous signal was observed. The number of generations of light neutrinos has been limited to NV < 7.5 (90% CL). L' rrnl ...

متن کاملSearch for single photons from supersymmetric particle production.
A search in e+eannihilation for final states which contain only a single energetic photon has been performed at fi = 29 GeV with the MAC detector at PEP. The upper limit, on an anomalous signal has been interpreted in terms of mass limits for supersymmetric particles assuming radiative pair production of either supersymmetric photons or neutrinos. For the supersymmetric electron (Z) this limit ...
