Description

We have searched for inclusive production of heavy stable particles with charge Q=2/3, 1 and 4/3 in e+e- annihilation, using energy loss measurements by the TOPAZ TPC. In 23.6 pb-1 of data taken at the center of mass energy range √s=52-61.4 GeV, no such particle was found and new upper limits for the production cross sections were obtained. (orig.)
