Review of E760/E835 Keith Gollwitzer Antiproton Source Department Accelerator Division Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory Project X 2 nd Physics Workshop January 25, 2008

Charmonium Masses and Widths E760/E835 main purposes were to do precision measurements of the Charmonium spectrum as well as the discovery/confirmation of 1 P 1 and η c /

11
The precision of the mass and width of the c needs to be improved E760 & E835 only reported pbarp Need to observe c in more channels

13
Interference can be your friend The continuum “amplifies” the resonance E835 example in 4 photons pbarp c0 0 0, , / Should expand interference analyses to more channels; in particular pbarp at 90 o in the center of mass system

Summary Direct formation of any Charmonium state (of any quantum numbers) is a unique advantage to making precision measurements of the mass and width E760/E835 utilized “clean” J/ inclusive and two photon final states to “count” the number of events at each beam energy setting against the very large hadronic interaction background It is hard to discover narrow states scanning a large energy range –Precision measurements possible once mass is nearly known Like ILC precision measurements will be possible once hadron machine(s) make discoveries
