Search for Chargino and Neutralino Production at sqrt(s) = 192-209 GeV at LEP

Approximately 438 pb-1 of e+e- data from the OPAL detector, taken with the LEP collider running at centre-of-mass energies of 192-209 Gev, are analyzed to search for evidence of chargino pair production, e+e- -> tilde chi^+_1 tilde chi^-_1, or neutralino associated production, e+e- -> tilde chi^0_2 tilde chi^0_1. Limits are set at the 95% confidence level on the product of the cross-section for the process e+e- -> tilde chi^+_1 tilde chi^-_1 and its branching ratios to topologies containing jets and missing energy, of jest with a lepton and missing energy, and on the product of the cross-section for e+e- -> tilde chi^0_2 tilde chi^0_1 and its branching ratio to jets. R-parity conservation is assumed throughout this paper. When these results are interpreted in the context of the Constrained Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model, limits are also set on the masses of the tilde chi^+-_1, tilde chi^0_1 and tilde chi^0_2, and regions of the parameter space of the model are ruled out. Nearly model-independent limits are also set at the 95% confidence level on sigma(e+e- -> tilde chi^+_1 tilde chi^-_1) with the assumption that each chargino decays via a W boson, and on sigma(e+e- -> tilde chi^0_2 tilde chi^0_1) with the tilde chi^0_2 assumed to decay via a Z^0.

The Diffractive Interactions Working Group Summary

Diffractive interactions represent a lively domain of investigations, as confirmed by the progresses reported during the conference. We summarize the diffractive interactions session and put the new experimental data (section 1), developments in modeling diffraction (section 2) and the theoretical relations with Quantum Chromodynamics (section 3) in perspective.

Small x Phenomenology: Summary and Status

The aim of this paper is to summarize the general status of our understanding of small x physics. It is based on presentations and discussions at an informal meeting on this topic held in Lund, Sweden, in March 2001. This document also marks the founding of an informal collaboration between experimentalists and theoreticians with a special interest in small x physics. This paper is dedicated to the memory of Bo Andersson, who died unexpectedly from a heart attack on March 4th, 2002.

Massive c\bar c g - Calculation in Diffractive DIS and Diffractive D^* - Production at HERA

We calculate the cross section for $c\bar{c}g$-production in diffractive DIS with finite quark masses at zero momentum transfer $t$. The calculation is done in the leading log(1/$x_{P}$) approximation and is valid in the region of high diffractive masses $M$ (small $β$). We apply our cross section formula including both $c{\bar c}$- and $c\bar{c}g$ in a Monte Carlo simulation to diffractive $D^{*\pm}$ meson production at HERA. We compare our predictions to results of H1 using three parameterizations for the unintegrated gluon density.

Unintegrated parton densities applied to heavy quark production in the CCFM approach

The application of k_t - factorization supplemented with the CCFM small-x evolution equation to heavy quark production is discussed. The b-b_bar production cross sections at the TEVATRON can be consistently described using the k_t-factorization formalism together with the unintegrated gluon density obtained within the CCFM evolution approach from a fit to HERA F_2 data. Special attention is drawn to the comparison with measured visible cross sections. The visible measured cross sections at HERA are compared to the hadron level Monte Carlo generator CASCADE.

Heavy quark production at HERA in k_t factorization supplemented with CCFM evolution

The application of k_t - factorization, supplemented with the CCFM small-x evolution equation, to heavy quark production is discussed. Differential cross sections of b-b_bar production and also inelastic J/psi production as measured at HERA are compared to the hadron level CCFM Monte Carlo generator CASCADE, using the unintegrated gluon density obtained within the CCFM evolution approach from a fit to HERA F_2 data.

The CCFM Monte Carlo generator CASCADE

CASCADE is a full hadron level Monte Carlo event generator for e-p, gamma-p and p-p_bar processes, which uses the CCFM evolution equation for the initial state cascade in a backward evolution approach supplemented with off-shell matrix elements for the hard scattering. A detailed program description is given, with emphasis on parameters the user wants to change and common block variables which completely specify the generated events.

Pomeron intercept from BFKL gluon dynamics in deep inelastic charm production at HERA

In the framework of semihard (k$_T$ factorization) QCD approach, we consider the differential cross sections of $D^{*\pm}$ meson production at HERA. The consideration is based on BFKL and CCFM gluon distributions. We find that in the case of BFKL LO gluon distribution the theoretical results are sensitive to the Pomeron intercept parameter $Δ$. We present a comparison of the theoretical results with available ZEUS experimental data.

Massive c(\bar c)g-Production in Diffractive DIS

We calculate the cross section for q(\bar q)g-production in diffractive DIS with finite fermion masses and zero momentum transfer. The calculation is done in the leading log(1/x_p) approximation and is valid for the region of high diffractive masses (small beta). We apply our cross section formula to diffractive charm production at HERA: in a Monte-Carlo-Simulation of diffractive D*+- meson production we include both massive q(\bar q)- and massive q(\bar q)g-production, and we compare with preliminary H1 results. After adjusting an infrared cutoff parameter of our model which affects the overall normalization of the cross section we find reasonable agreement with the data. In particular, the slope of the beta-distribution can be reproduced.

QCD analysis of the diffractive structure function F_2^{D(3)}

The proton diffractive structure function $F_2^{D(3)}$ measured in the H1 and ZEUS experiments at HERA is analyzed in terms of both Regge phenomenology and perturbative QCD evolution. A new method determines the values of the Regge intercepts in ``hard'' diffraction, confirming a higher value of the Pomeron intercept than for soft physics. The data are well described by a QCD analysis in which point-like parton distributions, evolving according to the DGLAP equations, are assigned to the leading and sub-leading Regge exchanges. The gluon distributions are found to be quite different for H1 and ZEUS. A {\it global fit} analysis, where a higher twist component is taken from models, allows us to use data in the whole available range in diffractive mass and gives a stable answer for the leading twist contribution. We give sets of quark and gluon parton distributions for the Pomeron, and predictions for the charm and the longitudinal proton diffractive structure function from the QCD fit. An extrapolation to the Tevatron range is compared with CDF data on single diffraction. Conclusions on factorization breaking depend critically whether H1 (strong violation) or ZEUS (compatibility at low $β$) fits are taken into account.

Charm production in the semi-hard approach of QCD and the unintegrated gluon distribution

In the framework of semi-hard QCD approach, we present a consistent analysis of D^* meson production at HERA energies. The consideration is based on universal unintegrated gluon densities, which have BFKL behavior in the small x region. Predictions of the CCFM evolution equation for D^* production are obtained and show a good description of D^* data at HERA.
