Abstract: We report on a general search for neutral and charged Higgs bosons with no assumption that the Higgs sector consists of a single doublet as in the minimal standard model. No signal inconsistent with background is observed in any of the decay channels analysed. From the results of direct searches, model independent limits on Higgs bremsstrahlung and on Higgs pair production from the Z0 are presented. We interpret the bremsstrahlung limits in the general two-doublet model. Z0 lineshape measurements further restrict the parameter space available in the two-doublet model. Finally, the results are interpreted in the framework of the minimal supersymmetric extension of the standard model., Facultad de Ciencias Exactas

Abstract: The production of c and b quarks in gamma-gamma collisions is studied with the L3 detector at LEP with 410 pb^-1 of data, collected at centre-of-mass energies from 189 GeV to 202 GeV. Hadronic final states containing c and b quarks are identified by detecting electrons or muons from their semileptonic decays. The cross sections sigma(e+e- -> e+e- c c~ X) and sigma(e+e- -> e+e- b b~ X) are measured and compared to next-to-leading order perturbative QCD calculations. The cross section of b production is measured in gamma-gamma collisions for the first time. It is in excess of the QCD prediction by a factor of three. The production of c and b quarks γγ collisions is studied with the L3 detector at LEP with 410 pb −1 of data, collected at centre-of-mass energies from 189 GeV to 202 GeV. Hadronic final states containing c and b quarks are identified by detecting electrons or muons from their semileptonic decays. The cross sections σ( e + e − → e + e − c c ̄ X ) and σ( e + e − → e + e − b b ̄ X ) are measured and compared to next-to-leading order perturbative QCD calculations.

Abstract: The cross section for the production of Z boson pairs is measured using the data collected by the L3 detector at LEP in 1999 in $\rm e^+e^-$ collisions at centre--of--mass energies ranging from 192 GeV up to 202 GeV. Events in all the visible final states are selected, measuring the cross section of this process. The special case of final states containing b quarks is also investigated.

Abstract: Excited leptons are searched for using the L3 detector at LEP. The data collected at centre-of-mass energies in the range from 192 up to 202 GeV correspond to a total luminosity of 233 $\rm pb^{-1}$. No evidence of either pair production of excited leptons, nor of single production is found. From the searches for pair produced excited leptons, lower mass limits close to the kinematic limit are set. From the searches for singly produced excited leptons, upper limits on their couplings are derived in the mass range up to 200 GeV. Excited leptons are searched for using the L3 detector at LEP.

Abstract: The $e^+ e^- \rightarrow e^+ e^- K^{0}_{s} K^{\pm} pi^{\mp}$ and $e^+ e^- \rightarrow e^+ e^- \eta \pi^{+} \pi^{-}$ final states are studied with the L3 detector at LEP using data collected at centre-of-mass energies from 183 GeV up to 202 GeV. The mass spectrum of the $K^{0}_{s} K^{\pm} \pi^{\mp}$ final state shows an enhancement around 1470 MeV, which is identified with the pseudoscalar meson $\eta(1440)$. This state is observed in $\gamma \gamma$ collisions for the first time and its two-photon width is measured to be $\Gamma_{\gamma\gamma}(\eta(1440)) x BR(\eta(1440) \rightarrow K\bar{K}\pi = 212 \pm 50 (stat) \pm 23 (sys)$ eV. Clear evidence is also obtained for the formation of the axial vector mesons $f_1$(1420) and $f_1$(1285). In the $\eta \pi^{+} \pi^{-}$ channel the $f_1$ (1285)} is observed, and upper limits for the formation of $\eta(1440)$ and $\eta(1295)$ are obtained. The e + e − →e + e − K S 0 K ± π ∓ and e + e − →e + e − ηπ + π − final states are studied with the L3 detector at LEP using data collected at centre-of-mass energies from 183 GeV up to 202 GeV. The mass spectrum of the K 0 S K ± π ∓ final state shows an enhancement around 1470 MeV, which is identified with the pseudoscalar meson η (1440). This state is observed in γγ collisions for the first time and its two-photon width is measured to be Γ γγ (η(1440))× BR (η(1440)→ K K ̄ π)=212±50 ( stat. )±23 (sys.) eV. Clear evidence is also obtained for the formation of the axial vector mesons f 1 (1420) and f 1 (1285). In the ηπ + π − channel the f 1 (1285) is observed, and upper limits for the formation of η (1440) and η (1295) are obtained. The e+e- -> e+e- Ks K+- pi-+ e+e- -> e+e- eta pi+ pi- and final states are studied with the L3 detector at LEP using data collected at centre-of-mass energies from 183 GeV up to 202 GeV. The mass spectrum of the Ks K+- pi-+ final state shows an enhancement around 1470MeV, which is identified with the pseudoscalar meson eta(1440). This state is observed in gamma gamma collisions for the first time and its two-photon width is measured to be Gamma_gamma gamma(eta(1440))x BR(eta(1440)->KK pi)= 212 +/- 50(stat) +/- 23(sys)eV. Clear evidence is also obtained for the formation of the axial vector mesons f1(1420) and f1(1285). In the eta pi+ pi- channel the f1(1285) is observed, and upper limits for the formation of eta(1440) and eta(1295) are obtained.

Based on a sample of 42 selected ${\rm W}^+{\rm W}^-$ candidates containing an isolated hard photon, the ${\rm W}^+{\rm W}^-\gamma$ cross section, defined within phase-space cuts, is measured to be: $\sigma_{{\rm WW}\gamma} = 290 \pm 80 \pm 16$ fb, consistent with the Standard Model expectation. Including the process e$^+$e$^-\rightarrow \nu\bar\nu \g\g$, limits are derived on anomalous contributions to the Standard Model quartic vertices ${\rm W}^+{\rm W}^-\gamma\gamma$ and ${\rm W}^+{\rm W}^-{\rm Z}\gamma$ at 95\%~CL: \begin{eqnarray*} -0.043 \GeV^{-2} & < & a_0/\Lambda^2 ~ < ~ 0.043 \GeV^{-2} \\ \phantom{0}-0.08 \GeV^{-2} & < & a_c/\Lambda^2 ~ < ~ 0.13\phantom{0} \GeV^{-2} \\ \phantom{0}-0.41 \GeV^{-2} & < & a_n/\Lambda^2 ~ < ~ 0.37\phantom{0} \GeV^{-2}. \end{eqnarray*} The process e + e − →W + W − γ is analysed using the data collected with the L3 detector at LEP at a centre-of-mass energy of 188.6 GeV , corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 176.8 pb −1 .

Abstract: We investigate \BE\ correlations (BEC) in W-pair production at $\sqrt{s}\simeq189 \GeV$ using the L3 detector at LEP. We observe BEC between particles from a single W~decay in good agreement with those from a light-quark Z~decay sample. We investigate their possible existence between particles coming from different W's. No evidence for such \interW\ BEC is found.

Abstract: In a search for the Standard Model Higgs boson, carried out on 212.5 pb-1 of data collected by the L3 detector at the highest LEP centre-of-mass energies, including 116.5 pb-1 above root(s) = 206GeV, an excess of candidates for the process e+e- -> Z* -> HZ is found for Higgs masses near 114.5GeV. We present an analysis of our data and the characteristics of our strongest candidates.

Abstract: The measurements of $R_{b} = \sigma(e^+e^-} \to b\overline{b})/\sigma( e^+e^-} \to{m q\overline{q})$ and of the b quarkforward--backward charge asymmetry,$A_fb}^{b}$, at centre--of--mass energies above the Z pole are described. The measurement of $R_{b}$ is performed at $\sqrt{s}$ between 130 and 189 GeV using a b--tagging method thatexploits the relatively large decay length ofb--hadrons. The measurement of $A_{fb}^{b}$ is performedusing the large statistics event sample collected at $\sqrt{s}$=189 GeV with a lepton--tag analysis based on the selection of prompt muons and electrons. The results at $\sqrt{s}$=189 GeV are: $R_{b} = 0.163 pm 0.013 (stat.) pm 0.005 (syst.)$, $A_{fb}^{b} = 0.61 pm 0.18 (stat.) pm 0.09 (syst.).$ The measurements of R b =σ( e + e − → b b ̄ )/σ( e + e − → q q ̄ ) and of the b quark forward–backward charge asymmetry, A fb b , at centre-of-mass energies above the Z pole are described. The measurement of R b is performed at s between 130 and 189 GeV using a b-tagging method that exploits the relatively large decay length of b-hadrons. The measurement of A fb b is performed using the large statistics event sample collected at s =189 GeV with a lepton-tag analysis based on the selection of prompt muons and electrons. The results at s =189 GeV are R b =0.163±0.013 (stat.) ±0.005 (syst.) , A fb b =0.61±0.18 (stat.) ±0.09 (syst.) . The measurements of Rb = sigma(e+e- -> bb~)/sigma(e+e- -> qq~) and of the b quark forward-backward charge asymmetry, A^b_fb, at centre-of-mass energies above the Z pole are described. The measurement of Rb is performed at \root{s} between 130 and 189 GeV using a b-tagging method that exploits the relatively large decay length of b-hadrons. The measurement of A^b_fb is performed using the large statistics event sample collected at \root{s}=189 GeV with a lepton-tag analysis based on the selection of prompt muons and electrons. The results at \root{s}=189 GeV are: Rb = 0.163 +/- 0.013 (stat.) +/- 0.005 (syst.), A^b_fb = 0.61 +/- 0.18 (stat.) +/- 0.09 (syst.).

Abstract: A search for chargino, neutralino and scalar lepton pair-production in $\mathrm{e^+e^-}$ collisions at the centre-of-mass energy of 189 GeV is performed under the assumptions that R-parity is not conserved in decays and only one of the coupling constants $\lambda_{ijk}$, $\lambda'_{ijk}$ or $\lambda''_{ijk}$ is non-negligible. No signal is found in a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 176.4 pb$^{-1}$. Limits on the production cross sections, on the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model parameters and on the masses of the supersymmetric particles are derived. A search for chargino, neutralino and scalar lepton pair-production in e+e- collisions at the centre-of-mass energy of 189 GeV is performed under the assumptions that R-parity is not conserved in decays and only one of the coupling constants lambda_ijk, lambda'_ijk or lambda''_ijk is non-negligible.

Abstract: Single W boson production in electron-positron collisions is studied with the L3 detector at LEP. The data sample collected at a centre-of-mass energy of $\sqrt{s} = 188.7 \mathrm{\ Ge\kern -0.1em V}{}$ corresponds to an integrated luminosity of $176.4\,\mbox{pb$^{-1}$}$. Events with a single energetic lepton or two acoplanar hadronic jets are selected. Within phase-space cuts, the total cross-section is measured to be $0.53 \pm 0.12 \pm 0.03 \; \rm{pb}$, consistent with the Standard Model expectation. Including our single W boson results obtained at lower $\sqrt{s}$, the WW$\gamma$ gauge couplings $\kappa_\gamma$ and $\lambda_\gamma$ are determined to be \mbox{$\kappa_\gamma = 0.93 \pm 0.16 \pm 0.09$} and \mbox{$\lambda_\gamma = -0.31^{+0.68}_{-0.19} \pm 0.13$}. Single W boson production in electron-positron collisions is studied with the L3 detector at LEP. The data sample collected at a centre-of-mass energy of s =188.7 GeV corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 176.4 pb −1 . Events with a single energetic lepton or two acoplanar hadronic jets are selected. Within phase-space cuts, the total cross-section is measured to be 0.53±0.12±0.03 pb , consistent with the Standard Model expectation. Including our single W boson results obtained at lower s , the WW γ gauge couplings κ γ and λ γ are determined to be κ γ =0.93±0.16±0.09 and λ γ =−0.31 +0.68 −0.19 ±0.13.

Abstract: A search for charginos nearly mass-degenerate with the lightest supersymmetric particle is performed using the 176 pby1 of data collected at 189 GeV in 1998 with the L3 detector. Mass differences between the chargino and the lightest supersymmetric particle below 4 GeV are considered. The presence of a high transverse momentum photon is required to single out the signal from the photon-photon interaction background. No evidence for charginos is found and upper limits on the cross section for chargino pair production are set. For the first time at LEP2, in the case of heavy scalar leptons, chargino mass limits are obtained for any χ̃±1−χ̃01 mass difference., Facultad de Ciencias Exactas

Abstract: A search for the lightest neutral scalar and neutral pseudoscalar Higgs bosons in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model is performed using 176.4 pb$^{-1}$ of integrated luminosity collected by L3 at a center-of-mass energy of 189 GeV. No signal is observed, and the data are consistent with the expected Standard Model background. Lower limits on the masses of the lightest neutral scalar and pseudoscalar Higgs bosons are given as a function of $\tan\beta$. Lower mass limits for $\tan\beta > 1$ are set at the 95\% confidence level to be $m_{\rm h} > 77.1$ GeV and $m_{\rm A} > 77.1$ GeV.

Abstract: We present a combined measurement of $\Rb = \Gamma(\mathrm{Z \rightarrow b\overline{b}}) / \Gamma(\mathrm{Z} \rightarrow\mbox{hadro ns})$ and the semileptonic branching ratio of b quarks in Z decays, $\Brbl$, using double-tag methods. Two analyses are performed on one million hadronic Z decays collected in 1994 and 1995. The first analysis exploits the capabilities of the silicon microvertex detector. The tagging of b-events is based on the large impact parameter of tracks from weak b-decays with respect to the $\mathrm{e^+e^-}$ collision point. In the second analysis, a high-$p_t$ lepton tag is used to enhance the b-component in the sample and its momentum spectrum is used to constrain the model dependent uncertainties in the semileptonic b-decay. The analyses are combined in order to provide precise determinations of $\Rb$ and $\Brbl$: We present a combined measurement of Rb = \Gamma(Z -> bb) / \Gamma(Z ->hadrons) and the semileptonic branching ratio of b quarks in Z decays, BR(b-> l nu X), using double-tag methods.

Abstract: A search for pair-produced charged Higgs bosons is performed with the L3 detector at LEP using data collected at a centre-of-mass energy of 188.6 GeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 176.4 $\mathrm{pb^{-1}}$. Higgs decays into a charm and a strange quark or into a tau lepton and its associated neutrino are considered. The observed events are consistent with the expectations from Standard Model background processes. A lower limit of 65.5 GeV on the charged Higgs mass is derived at 95\% confidence level, independent of the decay branching ratio $\mathrm{Br(H^\pm\rightarrow \tau\nu)}$.

Abstract: Inclusive production of $\mathrm{D^{*\pm}}$ mesons in two-photon collisions was measured by the L3 experiment at LEP. The data were collected at a centre-of-mass energy $\sqrt{s} = 189$ GeV with an integrated luminosity of $176.4 \mathrm{pb^{-1}}$. Differential cross sections of the process $\mathrm{e^+e^- \rightarrow D^{*\pm} X}$ are determined as functions of the transverse momentum and pseudorapidity of the $\mathrm{D^{*\pm}}$ mesons in the kinematic region $1$ GeV $< p_{T}^{\mathrm{D^*}} < 5 $ GeV and $\mathrm{|\eta^{D^*}|} < 1.4$. The cross section integrated over this phase space domain is measured to be $132 \pm 22(stat.) \pm 26(syst.) $ pb. The differential cross sections are compared with next-to-leading order perturbative QCD calculations.

Abstract: A search for unstable neutral and charged heavy leptons as well as for stable charged heavy leptons is performed at center-of-mass energies $\sqrt{s}$ = 183 and 189 GeV with the L3 detector at LEP. No evidence for their existence is found. We exclude neutral heavy leptons which couple to the electron, muon or tau family, of the Dirac type for masses below 92.4, 93.3 and 83.3 GeV, and of the Majorana type for masses below 81.8, 84.1 and 73.5 GeV, respectively. We exclude unstable charged heavy leptons for masses below 93.9 GeV for a wide range of the associated neutral heavy lepton mass. If the unstable charged heavy lepton decays to a light neutrino, we exclude masses below 92.4 GeV. The production of stable charged heavy leptons with mass less than 93.5 GeV is also excluded.

Abstract: A search for the Standard Model Higgs boson is carried out on $176.4\ \mathrm{pb}^{-1}$ of data collected by the L3 detector at a center-of-mass energy of $189 \mathrm{\ Ge\kern -0.1em V}$. The data are consistent with the expectations of Standard Model processes and no evidence of a Higgs signal is observed. Combining the results of this search with those at lower center-of-mass energies, a lower limit on the mass of the Standard Model Higgs boson of $95.3\mathrm{\ Ge\kern -0.1em V}$ is set at the 95\% confidence level. A search for the Standard Model Higgs boson is carried out on 176.4 pb −1 of data collected by the L3 detector at a center-of-mass energy of 189 GeV. The data are consistent with the expectations of Standard Model processes and no evidence of a Higgs signal is observed.

Abstract: We present a study of the structure of hadronic events recorded by the L3 detector at center-of-mass energies of 130 and 136 GeV. The data sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 5 pb-1 collected during the high energy run of 1995. The shapes of the event shape distributions and the energy dependence of their mean values are well reproduced by QCD models. From a comparison of the data with resummed O(alpha_s^2) QCD calculations, we determine the strong coupling constant to be alpha_s(133 GeV) = 0.107 +/- 0.005(exp) +/- 0.006(theor).

Abstract: In this report we summarize the major results from the first three years of running of the L3 detector at the Large Electron Positron collider (LEP). The L3 detector was designed to measure electrons, photons and muons with high precision; it has achieved (DELTAE/E) almost-equal-to 1.4% for electrons and photons at E = 45 GeV and (DELTAp/p) almost-equal-to 2.5% for muons at p = 45 GeV. Most of the experimental results presented are based on approximately 500 000 Z events. The data provide four independent checks of the Standard Model weak neutral currents to an accuracy of almost-equal-to 1%. These are: the measurement of Z parameters; the measurement of the forward-backward charge asymmetry of lepton pairs; the measurement of asymmetry parameters from Z --> bbBAR decays; and the measurement of the tau lepton polarization asymmetry. The data also provide information on weak charged currents from measurements of b hadrons such as decay width, lifetime, and B0-B0BAR mixing, and from measurements Of tau leptons such as their lifetime and branching ratios. The large number of Z events and the resolution of the L3 detector allow precision tests of QED and QCD, including the production of pi0, eta and hard photons. Leptonic final states with hard isolated photons are analyzed and high mass photon pairs are observed. Higgs boson production has not been observed and limits are given in the context of the Standard Model and its supersymmetric extensions. We also present upper limits on rare Z decays such as Z --> gammagammagamma and on flavor violating decays such as Z --> etau, mutau. Finally, upper limits obtained in the search for various new particles and new interactions are reported.

Abstract: We have searched for excited taus from Z0 decay in the channels e + e − → τ ∗+ τ ∗− → τ + τ − γ γ and e + e − → ττ ∗ → τ + τ − γ , using the L3 detector at LEP. Using the τ ∗ pair production channel, we can exclude a τ ∗ up to a mass of 45.5 geV at 95% confidence level. We have also determined upper limits on the ττ ∗ Z 0 and ττ ∗ γ couplings as a function of m τ∗ up to 89.3 GeV.

Abstract: We report on a search for the neutral and charged Higgs bosons predicted by models of spontaneous symmetry breaking with more than one Higgs doublet field. No signals are observed. We set model-independent limits on masses or branching ratios of singly and pair-produced neutral and charged Higgs bosons. In addition, we interpret our results in the framework of a general two-doublet Higgs model and the Minimal Supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model., Facultad de Ciencias Exactas
