Abstract

The authors present the Cherenkov Ring Imaging Detector in the endcap regions of the SLD detector and report initial performance. The endcap CRID was completed and commissioned in 1993 and is fully operational for the 1994 run. First Cherenkov rings have been observed. The endcap CRID detectors and fluid systems are described and initial operational experience is discussed.

Preliminary measurement of leading particle effects in hadronic Z{sup 0} decays

Conference

We present preliminary evidence for leading particle production in hadronic decays of the Z{sup 0} to light quark pairs using 150,000 events recorded in the SLD experiment at SLAC. The highly polarized electron beam produced by the SLC is used to tag quark and antiquark jets, and a signed impact parameter technique is employed to reject heavy flavor events. Charged hadrons are identified in the SLD Cherenkov Ring Imaging Detector (CRID) and {Lambda}/{bar {Lambda}} are reconstructed using their charged decay modes. In a high purity sample of quark jets, the baryon momentum spectrum is harder that that of the antibaryon,more »« less

QCD studies at SLD: Identified hadron production in jets of different flavors

Conference Kalelkar, M; Abe, K; Abe, K

The authors have measured the differential cross sections for the production of {pi}{sup {+-}}, K{sup {+-}}, K{sup 0}, K{sup *}(892), {phi}(1020), p and {Lambda} in hadronic Z{sup 0} decays and in subsets of flavor-tagged Z{sup 0} {yields} light-flavor (u{bar u}, d{bar d}, or s{bar s}), Z{sup 0} {yields} c{bar c} and Z{sup 0} {yields} b{bar b} events. Charged hadrons were identified with the SLD Cherenkov Ring Imaging Detector. A vertex detector was employed to select flavor-enriched samples, and the polarized electron beam from SLC was used to tag quark and antiquark jets. The authors observes a flavor dependence in themore »« less

A preliminary direct measurement of the parity-violating coupling of the Z{sup 0} to strange quarks, A{sub s}

Conference Abe, K; Abe, K; Abe, T

The authors present a preliminary direct measurement of the parity violating coupling of the Z{sup 0} to strange quarks, A{sub s}, derived from a sample of approximately 300,000 hadronic decays of Z{sup 0} bosons produced with a polarized electron beam and recorded by the SLD experiment at SLAC between 1993 and 1997. Z{sup 0} {yields} s{bar s} events are tagged by the presence in each event hemisphere of a high-momentum K{sup {+-}}, K{sub s}{sup 0} or {Lambda}{sup 0}/{bar {Lambda}}{sup 0} identified using the Cherenkov Ring Imaging Detector and/or a mass tag. The CCD vertex detector is used to suppress themore »« less

The lifetime probability tag measurement of R{sub b} using the SLD

Conference

The authors present a new measurement of R{sub b} = {Lambda}{sub Z{degree}{yields}b{anti b}}/{Lambda}{sub Z{degree}{yields}hadrons} using a lifetime double tag on 150k hadronic Z{degree} events collected from the SLD 1993 and 1994 runs. The method utilizes the high precision 3-D position measurements provided by the CCD vertex detector and the small stable SLC beams to obtain a b hemisphere tagging efficiency of 31% for a purity of 94%. The b-Hemisphere tagging efficiency is measured from the data reducing dependence on the B-decay model and detector simulation. They obtain a result of R{sub b} = 0.2171 {+-} 0.0040{sub statistical} {+-} 0.0037{sub systematic}more » {+-} 0.0023{sub R{sub c}}.« less
