Study of associated particles and second order processes in electron production at the CERN ISR

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6174633
The multiplicity of particles associated with electron pairs with mass greater than 11 GeV/c/sup 2/ is found to increase with the transverse momentum, P/sub Tau/, of the electron pair. The associated particles are observed to recoil against the electron pair and compensate locally its transverse momentum. The data are also found to be consistent with a scaling law of the form: s/sup 2/p/sup 2//sub T/ d/sup 3/sigma/dm/sup 2/dydp tau/sup 2/ = H (x/sub Tau/, y, tau), when compared to lower ..sqrt..s dimuon data.
