Detection of $D^{\pm}$ mesons production in pA-interactions at 70 GeV

The results of analysis SERP-E-184 experiment data, obtained with 70 GeV proton beam irradiation of active target with carbon, silicon and lead plates are presented. For 3-prongs charged charmed mesons decays, event selection criteria were developed and detection efficiency was calculated with detailed simulation using FRITIOF7.02 and GEANT3.21 programs. Signals of decays were found and charm production inclusive cross sections estimated at near threshold energy. The lifetimes and A-dependence of cross section were measured. Yields of D mesons and their ratios in comparison with data of other experiments and theoretical predictions are presented.

Registration of neutral charmed mesons production and their decays in pA-interactions at 70 GeV with SVD-2 setup

The results of data handling for E-184 experiment obtained with 70 GeV proton beam irradiation of active target with carbon, silicon and lead plates are presented. Two-prongs neutral charmed D0 and Ď0 -mesons decays were selected. Signal / background ratio was (51+/-17) / (38+/-13). Registration efficiency for mesons was defined and evaluation for charm production cross section at threshold energy is presented: sigma(cĉ) = 7.1 +/- 2.4(stat.) +/- 1.4(syst.) (μ/nucleon).

The SPHINX spectrometer

The paper describes the SPHINX facility which includes a wide-aperture magnetic spectrometer with scintillation counters and hodoscopes, proportional chambers and drift tubes, multichannel electromagnetic and hadron calorimeters, a guard system, a RICH velocity spectrometer and a hodoscopical threshold Cherenkov detector for the identification of charged secondary particles. The SPHINX spectrometer, in its last modification, had the possibility to record 3000-4000 trigger events per an accelerator burst. The spectrometer was used during the last decade in experiments with the 70GeV proton beam of the IHEP accelerator U-70.

Study of the K- -> mu- nu pi0 decay

The decay $K^{-} \to μ^{-} \barν π^{0}$ has been studied using in-flight decays detected with ``ISTRA+'' setup operating in the 25 GeV negative secondary beam of the U-70 PS. About 112K events were used for the analysis. The $λ_{+}$ and $λ_{0}$ slope parameters of the decay formfactors $f_{+}(t)$, $f_{0}(t)$ have been measured : $λ_{+}= 0.0321 \pm 0.004$(stat) $\pm 0.002$(syst) $λ_{0}= 0.0209 \pm 0.004$(stat) $\pm 0.002$(syst); the correlation $d λ_{0}/d λ_{+}=-0.46$ The limits on the possible tensor and scalar couplings have been derived: $f_{T}/f_{+}(0)=-0.021 \pm 0.028$(stat) $\pm 0.014$(theory); $f_{S}/f_{+}(0)=0.004 \pm 0.005$(stat) $\pm 0.005$(theory)
