Search for fractional charges produced in heavy-ion collisions at 1.8 GeV/nucleon

  • 1. San Francisco State Univ., CA

Description

The authors have carried out a first-generation experiment to detect fractionally charged particles produced in Fe-Pb nuclear collisions at 1.8 GeV/nucleon incident beam energy. The authors detect no 1/3-integrally charged particles. They have ruled out production of fractional charges in the target at the rate of one per 1 x 104 collisions, or under certain assumptions, to one per 2.0 x 106 collisions
