Separation of minimum and higher twist in the photoproduction of mesons with large transverse momenta
Description
Higher-twist effects in point-like photon interactions on hydrogen have been studied in xF-distributions of charged particles for -0.2 < xF < 0.84 and pT > 2.0 GeV/c. Data were taken with a tagged photon beam with energies between 70 and 170 GeV and a pion/kaon beam at fixed energies of 80 and 140 GeV using the same setup of detectors at the CERN-Ω-spectrometer (WA69 experiment). The pion and kaon interactions were used to obtain an estimate of the hadron-like photon component. A first estimation of Higher-Twist cross sections in photoproduction of mesons at high pT has been obtained that is consistent with QCD-expectations. (orig.)

In der vorliegenden Arbeit wurde die Photoproduktion geladener Teilchen bei grossen Transversalimpulsen (pT > 2.0 GeV/c) studiert, um Vorhersagen aus QCD-Rechnungen fuer die punktfoermige Komponente des Photons zu testen. Ziel der Untersuchungen war es, eine erste experimentelle Schaetzung des Higher-Twist Effekts in der Photoproduktion zu erhalten. Die ausgewerteten Daten wurden von der Ω-Photon-Kollaboration (WA 69) am Ω-Spektrometer des CERN aufgenommen. Es standen 13x106 Ereignisse aus der Photoproduktion und 17x106 mit einem gemischten Pion/Kaonstrahl gewonnene Ereignisse zur Verfuegung. (orig.)
