چکیده
We report values of R = sigma(e(+)e(-)-->hadrons)/sigma(e(+)e(-)-->mu(+)mu(-)) for 85 center-of-mass energies between 2 and 5 GeV measured with the upgraded Beijing Spectrometer at the Beijing Electron-Positron Collider.

HADRON PRODUCTION IN e + e - ANNIHILATION FROM , / i = 5 . 0 TO 7 . 4 GeV
The total cross section for e+e-annihilation into hadrons has been measured * by the Crystal Ball collaboration at the SLAC storage ring SPEAR, for center-of-mass energies 4 from 5.0 to 7.4 GeV. The data show no evidence for new thresholds or resonant structure in this energy range. The average value of R, the radiatively corrected total hadronic cross section divided by the point p-pair cross ...
متن کاملNEW R VALUES IN 2-5 GeV FROM THE BEIJING SPECTROMETER
The QED running coupling constant evaluated at the Z pole, α(M2 Z), and the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon, aμ = (g − 2)/2, are two fundamental quantities that are used to test the Standard Model (SM) 1. The dominant uncertainties in both α(M2 Z) and a SM μ are due to the effects of hadronic vacuum polarization, which cannot be reliably calculated. Instead, with the application of disper...
متن کاملMeasurement of the total cross section for hadronic production by e(+)e(-) annihilation at energies between 2.6-5 GeV
Using the upgraded Beijing Spectrometer, we have measured the total cross section for e(+)e(-) annihilation into hadronic final states at center-of-mass energies of 2.6, 3.2, 3.4, 3.55, 4.6, and 5.0 GeV. Values of R, sigma(e(+)e(-)-->hadrons)/sigma(e(+)e(-)-->&mgr;(+)&mgr;(-)), are determined.
متن کاملApparent Excess in e+e− → hadrons
We have studied measurements of the cross section for e+e− → hadrons for centerof-mass energies in the range 20–209 GeV. We find an apparent excess over the predictions of the Standard Model across the whole range amounting to more than 4σ. As an example, we compare the data to predictions for a light scalar down-type quark which fit the excess well.

Average values of< 1- T >where T is the thrust are presented for e: e: AMY data and are compared with their values in hadronic interactions. As far as possible, similar analysis techniques have been employed in the two different interactions. Similar variation with E is observed for this average in both data. The values of < PT> and < PL > relative to the thrust axis in e e are simila...
متن کاملMeasurement of hadron and lepton - pair production at 161 GeV < y / s < 172
We report on measurements of e+e~ annihilation into hadrons and lepton pairs. The data have been taken with the L3 detector at LEP at center-of-mass energies between 161 GeV and 172 GeV. In a data sample corresponding to 21.2 pb“" 1 of integrated luminosity 2728 hadronic and 868 lepton-pair events are selected. The measured cross sections and leptonic forward-backward asymmetries agree well wit...
