Inclusive jet production in two-photon collisions at LEP
(2011)Physics Letters BInclusive jet production, e+e- → e +e- jet X, is studied using 560 pb-1 of data collected at LEP with the L3 detector at centre-of-mass energies between 189 and 209 GeV. The inclusive differential cross section is measured using a kt jet algorithm as a function of the jet transverse momentum, pt, in the range 3 < pt < 50 GeV for a pseudorapidity, η, in the range -1 <η <1. This cross section is well represented by a power law. For high pt, ...Journal Article -
Measurement of hadron and lepton-pair production in e+e- collisions at root s=192-208 GeV at LEP
(2006)The European Physical Journal CHadron production and lepton-pair production in e+e- collisions are studied with data collected with the L3 detector at LEP at centre-of-mass energies s√=192−208GeV. Using a total integrated luminosity of 453 pb-1, 36057 hadronic events and 12863 lepton-pair events are selected. The cross sections for hadron production and lepton-pair production are measured for the full sample and for events where no high-energy initial-state-radiation ...Journal Article -
Study of inclusive strange-baryon production and search for pentaquarks in two-photon collisions at LEP
(2007)The European Physical Journal CMeasurements of inclusive production of the Λ, Ξ- and Ξ*(1530) baryons in two-photon collisions with the L3 detector at LEP are presented. The inclusive differential cross sections for Λ and Ξ- are measured as a function of the baryon transverse momentum, pt, and pseudo-rapidity, η. The mean number of Λ, Ξ- and Ξ*(1530) baryons per hadronic two-photon event is determined in the kinematic range 0.4 GeV<pt<2.5 GeV, |η|<1.2. Overall agreement ...Journal Article -
Flavor Independent Search for Neutral Higgs Bosons at LEP
(2004)Physics Letters BA flavour independent search for the CP-even and CP-odd neutral Higgs bosons h and A is performed in 624 pb−1 of data collected with the L3 detector at LEP at centre-of-mass energies between 189 and 209 GeV. Higgs boson production through the e+e−→Zh and the e+e−→hA processes is considered and decays of the Higgs bosons into hadrons are studied. No significant signal is observed and 95% confidence level limits on the hZZ and hAZ couplings ...Journal Article -
Search for anomalous couplings in the Higgs sector at LEP
(2004)Physics Letters BAnomalous couplings of the Higgs boson are searched for through the processes e+e-→Hγ, e+e -→e+e-H and e+e -→HZ. The mass range 70 GeV<mH<190 GeV is explored using 602 pb-1 of integrated luminosity collected with the L3 detector at LEP at centre-of-mass energies s=189-209 GeV. The Higgs decay channels H→ff̄, H→γγ, H→Zγ and H→WW(*) are considered and no evidence is found for anomalous Higgs production or decay. Limits on the anomalous ...Journal Article -

Study of hadronic event shape in flavour tagged events in e+e- annihilation at ⟨√s⟩ = 197 GeV
(2008)PMC Physics. AResults are presented from a study of the structure of hadronic events in high-energy e+e- interactions detected by the L3 detector at LEP. Various event shape distributions and their moments are measured at several energy points at and above the Z-boson mass. The event flavour is tagged by using the decay characteristics of b-hadrons. Measurements of distributions of event shape variables for all hadronic events, for light (u, d, s, c) ...Journal Article -
