New results on heavy-flavor photoproduction from the E687 experiment at FNAL

  • Published:
Il Nuovo Cimento A (1965-1970)

Summary

The new results on charm from E687 photoproduction experiment are presented. They follow from very high statistic measurents and cover a wide variety of physics items in the charm sector. Charm photoproduction studies, very accurate lifetime measurements, analysis of several semi-leptonic decays and hadronic decays are discussed. Particular attention has been devoted to compare E687 results with other experiments.
