Phys.Lett.B 299 (1993) 174-182, 1993.
Inspire Record 341576 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.48424

A measurement of the gluon structure fusion using direct photon events observed with the UA2 detector in p p collisions at √ s =630 GeV is presented. The x -range covered by this analysis is between 0.049 and 0.207 and the Q 2 range is between 280 GeV 2 and 3670 GeV 2 . The data sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 7.14 pb −1 . The results are found to be in good agreement with the gluon distributions measured in deep inelastic scattering experiments extrapolated to the UA2 Q 2 values.

Study of electron pair production below the Z mass at the CERN anti-p p collider

The UA2 collaboration Alitti, J. ; Ambrosini, G. ; Ansari, R. ; et al.
Phys.Lett.B 275 (1992) 202-208, 1992.
Inspire Record 322265 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.27115

Results on the cross section for the production of electron pairs in p p collisions at √ s = 630 GeV are presented. The measured value is σ = 405 ± 51 (syst.) ± 84 (syst.) pb, in the invariant mass interval 10 < m < 70 GeV. The results are compared to recent theoretical calculations which include O( α s 2 ) QCD contributions. The comparison of these data with those of lower energy experiments show approximate scaling as a function of the variable √τ = m √s .

A Measurement of the W and Z production cross-sections and a determination of Gamma (W) at the CERN anti-p p collider

The UA2 collaboration Alitti, J. ; Ambrosini, G. ; Ansari, R. ; et al.
Phys.Lett.B 276 (1992) 365-374, 1992.
Inspire Record 319671 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.29256

The decays W → ev and Z → e + e − are studied in [ovbar|p]p collisions at √ s =630 GeV . The products of production cross section and branching ratio are measured as σ e w =682±12±40 pb and σ e w =65.6±4.0±3.8 pb. The results are in good agreement with O(α 2 s ) calculations of the production cross sections. Many systematic effects cancel in the ratio, R =10.4± 0.7 0.6 ±0.3, which can be used to give an indirect measurement of the total width of the W boson: Γ w =2.10±0.13±0.09 GeV . The width gives a limit on the top quark mass, m top >53 GeV (95% CL), which is independent of the top decay mode.

Inclusive jet cross-section and a search for quark compositeness at the CERN $\bar{p} p$ collider

The UA2 collaboration Alitti, J. ; Ansari, R. ; Autiero, D. ; et al.
Phys.Lett.B 257 (1991) 232-240, 1991.
Inspire Record 302588 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.29493

The inclusive jet cross-section has been measured at the CERN p p Collider ( s = 630 GeV ) as a function of the jet transverse momentum ( p T ) and pseudorapidity ( η ) for p T values up to 180 GeV and for−2< η <2. The results are consistent with leading order QCD calculations, and a lower limit Λ c >825 GeV (95% CL ) is set on the quark compositeness scale Λ c .

Z.Phys.C 49 (1991) 17-28, 1991.
Inspire Record 298412 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.15084

A study of the two-jet mass spectrum measured with the UA 2 calorimeter has revealed a signal from hadronic decays ofW andZ bosons above a large background. Production and decay properties of the signal have been measured. The combined production cross-section σ·B(W, Z → two jets) is 9.6±2.3 (stat.)±1.1 (syst.) nb, compared with an expectation of 5.8 nb calculated to order αs2. A limit on the production cross-section of additional heavy vector bosons decaying into two jets is given as a function of the boson mass.

The transverse momentum distributions ofW andZ bosons produced in\(\bar pp\) collisions at\(\sqrt s= 630 GeV\) are examined. Comparisons are made with QCD predictions, and good agreement is found. The fraction ofW bosons produced withpT>25 GeV is found to be 3.8±0.6(stat)−1.3+0.9(syst)%.

Inspire Record 294910 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.15179

Results on the production cross sections ofW andZ bosons detected in the UA2 experiment are given based on a large sample ofW→eν andZ→e+e− decays. The measured cross sections are σWe = 660±15(stat)±37(syst)pb, σZe = 70.4±5.5(stat)±4.0(syst)pb and their ratioR=9.38−0.72+0.82(stat)±0.25(syst). In the framework of the Standard Model, the measured value ofR is used to determine the total width of theW, Γ(W)=2.30±0.19(stat)±0.06(syst) GeV.
