Title: Search for new physics in lepton + photon + X events with 929 pb**(-1) of p anti-p collisions at s**(1/2) = 1.96-TeV

OSTI ID:901120

The authors present results of a search at CDF in 929 {+-} 56 pb{sup -1} of p{bar p} collisions at 1.96 TeV for the anomalous production of events containing a high-transverse momentum charged lepton ({ell}, either e or {mu}) and photon ({gamma}), accompanied by missing transverse energy (E{sub T}), and/or additional leptons and photons, and jets (X). They use the same selection criteria as in a previous CDF Run I search, but with an order-magnitude larger data set, a higher p{bar p} collisions energy, and the CDF II detector. They find 163 {ell}{gamma}E{sub T} + X events, compared to an expectation of 150.6 {+-} 13.0 events. They observe 74 {ell}{ell}{gamma} + X events, compared to an expectation of 65.1 {+-} 7.7 events. They find no events similar to the Run II ee{gamma}{gamma}E{sub T} event.
