This book was released on 2001 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This dissertation reports on measurements of inclusive cross sections times branching fractions into electrons for W and Z bosons produced in p[anti p] collisions at[radical]s= 1.8 TeV. From an integrated luminosity of 84.5 pb[sup[minus]1] recorded in 1994--1995 by the D0 detector at the Fermilab Tevatron[Lambda] the cross sections are measured to be[sigma]p[anti p][r-arrow] W+ X[center-dot] B(W[r-arrow] e[nu])= 2,310[+-] 10 (stat)[+-] 50 (Syst)[+-] 100 (lum) pb and[sigma](p[anti p][r-arrow] Z+ X)[center-dot] B(Z[r-arrow] ee)= 221[+-] 3 (stat)[+-] 4 (Syst)[+-] 10 (lum) pb. The cross section ratio R is determined to be[sigma](p[anti p][r-arrow] W+ X)[center-dot] B(W[r-arrow] e[nu])/[sigma](p[bar p][r-arrow] Z+ X)[center-dot] B(Z[r-arrow] ee)= 10.43[+-] 0.15 (stat)[+-] 0.20 (syst)[+-] 0.10 (NLO)[Lambda] and R is used to determine B(W[r-arrow] e[nu])= 0.1044[+-] 0.0015 (stat)[+-] 0.0020 (syst)[+-] 0.0017 (theory)[+-] 0.0010 (NLO)[Lambda] and[Lambda][sub W]= 2.169[+-] 0.031 (stat)[+-] 0.042 (syst)[+-] 0.041 (theory)[+-] 0.022 (NLO) GeV. The latter is used to set a 95% confidence level upper limit on the partial decay width of the W boson into non-standard model final states[Lambda][Lambda][sub W][sup inv][Lambda] of 0.213 GeV.

Book Measurement of the Cross Section for W boson Production in Association with Jets in Ppbar Collisions at S

Download or read book Measurement of the Cross Section for W boson Production in Association with Jets in Ppbar Collisions at S written by and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We present a measurement of the cross section for W-boson production in association with jets in p{bar p} collisions at √s = 1.96 TeV. The analysis uses a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 320 pb−1 collected with the CDF II detector. W bosons are identified in their electron decay channel and jets are reconstructed using a cone algorithm. For each W + ≥ n-jet sample (n = 1-4) we measure?(p{bar p} → W + ≥ n-jet) x?(W → e?) with respect to the transverse energy E{sub T} of the nth-highest E{sub T} jet above 20 GeV, for a restricted W → e? decay phase space. The cross sections, corrected for all detector effects, can be directly compared to particle level W + jet(s) predictions. We present here comparisons to leading order and next-to-leading order predictions.

Book A Measurement of W Boson Pair Production in Pp Collisions at Sqrt s

Download or read book A Measurement of W Boson Pair Production in Pp Collisions at Sqrt s written by Philip Sommer and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Zusammenfassung: In this thesis, measurements of the W boson pair production cross section in proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 8 TeV are presented. A dataset corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 22.3 /fb recorded by the ATLAS experiment in the year 2012 is used. The W bosons are identified by their decay products of exactly two leptons with opposite electrical charge, electrons or muons, and missing transverse momentum induced by their corresponding neutrinos. First, a measurement restricted to final states without hadronic jets is presented and differential fiducial cross sections, total cross sections and limits on anomalous triple gauge boson couplings are obtained. A second measurement of the fiducial cross section in association with exactly one hadronic jet is presented. The ratio of fiducial cross sections for different jet multiplicities is reported and the combined fiducial cross section is extrapolated to the total phase space.

Book Measurement of the Production and Differential Cross Sections of  W     W       Bosons in Association with Jets in  p bar p   Collisions at   sqrt s

Download or read book Measurement of the Production and Differential Cross Sections of W W Bosons in Association with Jets in p bar p Collisions at sqrt s written by and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this study, we present a measurement of the W-boson-pair production cross section in pp¯ collisions at 1.96 TeV center-of-mass energy and the first measurement of the differential cross section as a function of jet multiplicity and leading-jet energy. The W+W– cross section is measured in the final state comprising two charged leptons and neutrinos, where either charged lepton can be an electron or a muon. Using data collected by the CDF experiment corresponding to 9.7 fb–1 of integrated luminosity, a total of 3027 collision events consistent with W+W– production are observed with an estimated background contribution of 1790±190 events. The measured total cross section is ?(pp¯→W+W–) = 14.0 ± 0.6(stat)+1.2–1.0 (syst)±0.8 (lumi) pb, consistent with the standard model prediction.

Book Measurement of the  B c   pm   Production Cross Section in  p bar p   Collisions at   sqrt s

Download or read book Measurement of the B c pm Production Cross Section in p bar p Collisions at sqrt s written by and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here, we describe a measurement of the ratio of the cross sections times branching fractions of the Bc+ meson in the decay mode Bc+ → J/[psi][mu]+[nu] to the B+ meson in the decay mode B+ → J/[psi]K+ in proton-antiproton collisions at center-of-mass energy √s = 1.96 TeV. The measurement is based on the complete CDF Run II data set, which comes from an integrated luminosity of 8.7 fb-1. The ratio of the production cross sections times branching fractions for Bc+ and B+ mesons with momentum transverse to the beam greater than 6 GeV/c and rapidity magnitude smaller than 0.6 is 0.211 ± 0.012(stat)-0.020+0.021(syst). Using the known B+ → J/[psi]K+ branching fraction, the known B+ production cross section, and a selection of the predicted Bc+ → J/[psi][mu]+[nu] branching fractions, the range for the total Bc+ production cross section is estimated.
