Description
An experiment carried out at the 30 GeV Alternating Gradient Synchrotron of the Brookhaven National Laboratory is described. The experiment used a high intensity slow extracted proton beam of between 1010 and 2 x 1012 protons per pulse and measured the e+e- mass spectrum from the reaction p + Be → e+e- + X. The result of this experiment shows the production of a new type of particle, J, which decays to e+e-with a width consistent with zero. Experimental searches for more new particles are also presented. (author)
