Production of D0 (1863) mesons in 217 GeV/c pi-minus proton interactions

Description
This thesis reports on the analysis of data obtained during FNAL experiment E369. The Chicago Cyclotron Magnet Spectrometer Facility was used to perform a search for the hadronic production of charmed D mesons. A 217 Gev π- beam was incident on a liquid hydrogen target. The trigger required a slow recoil proton in coincidence with a muon. A total of 26 +- 8 neutral D mesons were observed through their KOπ+π- decay mode. The distributions of Feynman X, missing mass, and momentum transfer to the recoil proton were consistent with diffractive production. Cross sections were calculated based on a diffractive model
