OPAL_1994_S2927284

Measurement of the production rates of charged hadrons in $e^+e^-$ annihilation at the $Z^0$
Experiment: OPAL (LEP 1)
Inspire ID: 372772
Status: VALIDATED
Authors:
  • Peter Richardson
References:
  • Z.Phys.C63:181-196,1994
Beams: e+ e-
Beam energies: (45.6, 45.6) GeV
Run details:
  • Hadronic Z decay events generated on the Z pole ($\sqrt{s} = 91.2$ GeV)

The inclusive production rates of $\pi^\pm$, $K^\pm$ and $p\bar{p}$ in $Z^0$ decays measured using the OPAL detector at LEP. Only the differential cross sections are currently implemented.
