A search for narrow resonances in proton-proton collisions at 53 GeV centre-of-mass energy

A search for narrow resonances produced in pp collisions at the CERN ISR has been carried out using two magnetic spectrometers to measure and identify two-final-state charged hadrons. The resultant two-particle invariant mass spectra show no strong structure suggesting any new narrow resonance. The...

Description
Summary:A search for narrow resonances produced in pp collisions at the CERN ISR has been carried out using two magnetic spectrometers to measure and identify two-final-state charged hadrons. The resultant two-particle invariant mass spectra show no strong structure suggesting any new narrow resonance. The statistical significance of various enhancements seen in the data is discussed, and upper limits on the cross section times branching ratio for new particle production are presented.
