Azimuthal correlations of high--transverse-momentum. pi. /sup 0/ pairs

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev. Lett.; (United States)
We have studied correlations between two ..pi../sup 0/'s produced at the CERN intersecting storage rings, utlizing detectors with large azimuthal acceptance. We find that the previously observed enhancement of two ..pi../sup 0/'s produced at azimuthal difference near 180/sup 0/ can be made to vanish when certain kinematic effects are removed. However, we observe aligned configurations above 8 GeV of transverse energy unexplained by such kinematic effects.
