“…However the picture is not so clear when charm is considered: here the ratio D * /(D+D * ) is measured [197] to be 0.51 ± 0.04. The difficulty here arises from incomplete knowledge of the production rate and decay modes of the orbitally excited D * * states which are likely to feed down into the D and D * production.…”

Abstract. The confinement transition from the quark and gluon degrees of freedom appropriate in perturbation theory to the hadrons observed by real world experiments is poorly understood. In this strongly interacting transition regime we presently rely on models, which to varying degrees reflect possible scenarios for the QCD dynamics. Because of the absence of beam and target remnants, and the clean experimental conditions and high event rates, e + e − annihilation to hadrons at the Z 0 provides a unique laboratory, both experimentally and theoretically, for the study of parton hadronization. This review discusses current theoretical understanding of the hadronization of partons, with particular emphasis on models of the nonperturbative phase, as implemented in Monte Carlo simulation programs. Experimental results at LEP and SLC are summarised and considered in the light of the models. Suggestions are given for further measurements which could help to produce more progress in understanding hadronization.

“…LSP pair production can potentially lead to observable signals at LEP2, even if other sparticles are kinematically inaccessible [10]. Some bounds have already been obtained by the ALEPH Collaboration [14]. The R-parity violating interactions will also modify SUSY signals at hadron colliders, but exactly how these alter will depend on the decay pattern of the LSP.…”

Supersymmetric resolution of solar and atmospheric neutrino puzzles

Renormalizable lepton number violating interactions that break R parity can induce a Majorana mass for neutrinos. Based on this, we show that it is possible to obtain a phenomenologically viable neutrino mass matrix that can accommodate atmospheric neutrino data via -mixing and the solar neutrino data via either the large or small angle MSW effect. We argue that such a mass matrix could result from an approximate discrete symmetry of the superpotential that forbids renormalizable baryon number violating couplings.

“…We have refrained from using choices numerically close to the extreme value D = 0.45m 0 2 which extends the allowed region even more dramatically. In obtaining these regions we have taken into account the lower bounds on mẽ R , mν and M χ ± 1 derived from LEP [20]. Thus we find that relatively lightν's look more probable within the basic framework of SUGRA once the theoretical uncertainities in the GUT scale/Planck scale physics are taken into account.…”
