Abstract: BackgroundPatients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) are at increased risk of developing malignancies, particularly hematologic malignancies. This predisposition for malignancy is attributed to the immune dysregulation, chronic inflammation and the long-term use of disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs(DMARDs).ObjectivesThis study was undertaken to determine the incidence, patterns of malignancy and identify risk factors of malignancy among RA patients.MethodsIndividuals diagnosed with cancer after the onset of RA between year 2008 and 2020 from the NIAR RA registry were retrospectively examined. Standardized incidence ratios (SIR) and 95% confidence intervals of various cancers were calculated based on the expected and observed frequencies. The expected number of cases were extracted from the Malaysian National Cancer registry report. ANOVA, Chi-squared, and Student’s t test were used to analyze the risk factors for developing malignancy.ResultsOf the 3995 patients in the registry, 97 patients developed malignancies at a mean interval of 9.1 years after RA onset. The total follow-up time was 26841.9 person-years.The mean age of patients was 59.3 (± 9.25) years, of which 89.7%(n=87) were women and 40%(n=39) were Chinese.87.6%(n=84) had solid-organ tumours while 12.4%(n=13) had hematological malignancies.Women showed increased risks of non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma (SIR = 13.1, 95% CI = 9.78 – 17.08), followed by lung cancer (SIR = 12.7, 95% CI = 10.01-15.77) and breast cancer (SIR = 8.8, 95% CI = 7.84 – 9.83).Men showed increased risks of lung cancer (SIR = 3.79, 95% CI = 2.81 – 4.92) and colorectal cancer (SIR = 1.69, 95% CI = 1.09 – 2.42).The risk factors for developing malignancy (pThere were no associations between gender, ethnicity, autoantibodies and DMARDs exposure.ConclusionThe overall malignancy incidence was increased among RA patients, with women having a 4-fold higher risk. Though the incidence of solid-organ malignancies is higher, the SIR once adjusted was highest for non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma which is consistent with literature review. Hence, cancer screening with continued vigilance among RA patients is recommended.References[1]Hwajeong Lee. The risk of malignancy in Korean patients with rheumatoid arthritis.

Abstract: BackgroundThe prevalence of SLE in Malaysia was reported as 43/100,000 individuals and Chinese (57/100,000) have the highest prevalence followed by Malays (33/100,000) and Indians (14/100,000) [1,2].The American College of Rheumatology established case definitions and categorised neuropsychiatric syndromes into two groups: central and peripheral system involvement. There were studies showed that cognitive impairment is the commonest neuropsychiatric manifestations with a prevalence of 66% [3].ObjectivesTo determine the association between neuropsychiatric manifestation with different age group among SLE patients.MethodsThis was a retrospective study. The electronic medical records of all SLE patients seen in rheumatology clinic of Hospital Sultan Ismail, Malaysia from 1/1/2007 to 31/12/2021 were reviewed. SLE patients with neuropsychiatric manifestations were selected and categorised by age into children (< 12 years old), adolescents (aged 12-18 years), young adults (aged >18 to 35 years), middle-aged adults (>35 -55 years) and elderly (>55 years). The association between neuropsychiatric manifestation with different age group was analysed by using SPSS-Fisher’s exact test.ResultsThere was a total of 86 patients and female were 77. The majority were Malay (49/86) followed by the Chinese (33/86), Indians (2/86) and others (2/86). Patients were categorized into children (n:6), adolescents (n:18), young adults (n:43), middle-aged adults (n:16) and elderly (n:3) with the mean age of 28.Our study showed the onset of neuropsychiatric manifestations occurred most during young adulthood (43/86) followed by adolescents (18/86). Seizure disorders is the commonest manifestations (36/86) followed by psychosis (17/86), poly/mononeuropathy (7/86), cognitive dysfunction (7/86), myelopathy (5/86), cranial neuropathy (4/86), mood disorders (3/86), cerebrovascular disease (3/86), movement disorders (2/86), and lastly headache and myasthenia gravis, 1 patient each. 60% of the patients had onset of neuropsychiatric manifestation during first diagnosis and another 7% developed symptoms within 1 year of diagnosis. There was no association between type of neuropsychiatric manifestation with different age group (p = 0.195). Comparison of neuropsychiatric manifestations according to age group was showed in Table 1.Table 1.Neuropsychiatric manifestations according to age groupAge group (years)Central nervous systemPeripheral nervous systemChildren < 12Seizure (4), CVD (1), Cognitive dysfunction (1)Adolescents 12-18Seizure (9), Psychosis (5), Mood disorders (1), Cognitive dysfunction (1)PN/MN (2)Young adults >18-35Seizure (18), Psychosis (10), Cognitive dysfunction (4), movement disorders (2), myelopathy (4), CVD (2)PN/MN (2) CN (1)Middle-aged adults >35-55Seizure (4), Psychosis (2), Mood disorders (2), Cognitive dysfunction (1), Myelopathy (1), Headache (1)PN/MN (3) CN (2)Elderly >55Seizure (1)MG (1), CN (1)CVD: Cerebrovascular disease, PN/MN: Polyneuropathy/Mononeuropathy, CN: cranial neuropathyConclusionSeizure disorders is the commonest manifestations amongst SLE patients in our study group and there was no association between neuropsychiatric manifestation with the age group.References[1]S.

Abstract: BackgroundNumerous immune-mediated diseases flare or new disease onset after SARS-CoV2-vaccination have been reported. There were case reports showed the immune-mediated disease flare post vaccination but study on new disease occurs post Covid-19 vaccination is still lacking.ObjectivesTo describe two SLE cases that diagnosed post Covid-19 vaccination.MethodsCase reportResults14 years old girl, post Covid-19 vaccination 1st dose 3 weeks ago presented with 2 day history of giddiness, breathlessness, vomiting and diarrhea prior to admission. She also complained of frothy urine for the past 1 week associated with lower limbs swelling and facial puffiness. Clinical examination noted she had sparse hair, oral ulcers and discoid lupus at the ear concha. She also noted to have periorbital puffiness with pedal edema. Lung auscultation noted bi-basal crepitations.Blood investigation noted ANA positive (1:640, speckled) with low complement 3 (0.1g/L). Her full blood count showed leucopenia (3100 UL) with low lymphocyte count of 810UL. UFEME noted protein of 3 + and red blood cell of 2+ with normal renal profile. Her serum albumin was 22g/L. Chest x ray showed clear lung field with no cardiomegaly. Her 24-hour urine protein showed proteinuria of 2.345g/dl and her renal biopsy showed mesangial proliferative lupus nephritis class ii.She was given intravenous methylprednisolone 500mg OD for 3 days and discharged with tapering dose of prednisolone, hydroxychloroquine, calcium supplements, perindopril and frusemide.Another case was a 17 year-old female, post covid-19 vaccination 10 weeks, presented with 3 weeks history of bilateral lower limbs weakness with difficulty in getting up from chair. She also had fever on and off with cough for 1 week. There was no alopecia, oral ulcer, facial rash or photosensitivity. No joints pain. Clinical examination noted presence of proximal myopathy with stable vital signs. Other systemic examinations were unremarkable.Blood investigation noted ANA positive (1: 640, homogenous and speckled) with low complements level (C3 0.19g/L and C4 0.049 g/L).Her creatine kinase was 2367U/L and EMG showed evidence of irritable myopathic process which is consistent with inflammatory myositis. Her TFT was normal. Myositis panel showed anti-Ku and anti-Ro 52 were positive. She was treated as SLE with myositis and intravenous methylprednisolone was given. She discharge well with tapering dose of prednisolone and azathioprine. Her creatine kinase showed improvement with immunosuppression therapy and she was advised on intensive physiotherapy.ConclusionThe onset of these two SLE cases were occurred within the 2 month of post covid-19 vaccination. Whether Covid-19 vaccination direct contribute to the occurrence of SLE remained inconclusive. More studies are required to show its correlation between onset of SLE and Covid-19 vaccination.ReferencesNILDisclosure of InterestsNone declared

Abstract: BackgroundLupus nephritis (LN) is an important concern among SLE patients in Asia and its mortality rate was reported to be 6 times higher compared to the general population [1]. A study by McCarty et al suggested that African women with serology showed combination of anti-Smith, Ro and RNP antibodies were at increased risk of developing LN [2]. This is further supported by study done by Majed et al showed this unusual combination accelerated development of LN within the first 5 years after SLE onset [3].ObjectivesTo determine the correlation between the combination of autoantibody profile: Smith, Ro and RNP in development of LN amongst Asian ancestry and any association with the duration of LN development from onset of SLE.MethodsThis was a retrospective study. The electronic medical records of all SLE patients seen in the rheumatology clinic Hospital Sultan Ismail, Malaysia from 1/1/2007 to 30/4/2021 were reviewed. Patients who had LN were identified and selected. Data on demography, serology, duration of development of LN from SLE onset were obtained and analysed using SPSS Pearson Chi square and binary logistic regression.ResultsThere were a total of 197 patients and 183 were females. The majority were Malays (96/197) followed by the non-Malay (101/197) which included Chinese (86/197) and others (15/197). The mean age group for the studied subjects was 34 (14-80).Of the 197 (100%) patients, 23 (11.7%) patients had the triple combination of Sm, Ro and RNP antibodies while 174 (88.3%) patients did not have the triple combination.For patient with the triple combination, regardless ethnicity, 20/23 (87%) developed LN within 5 years from the SLE onset while the remaining 3/23 (13%) developed LN after 5 years.For patients without this combination, regardless ethnicity, 142/174 (81.6%) of them developed LN within 5 years and 32/174 (18.4%) of them more than 5 years. This showed combination autoantibody does not significantly accelerated development of LN amongst Asian ancestry patients, P = 0.092.There was also no association between the positivity of triple antibody with the duration of development LN from SLE onset, P =0.772.Further stratification was based on ethnicity showed compare to Non-Malay ethnicity, the Malay patients is 3.966 higher odds of developing LN within the 5 years from SLE onset, P = 0.002.ConclusionPatient with triple serology combination did not showed significant in accelerating development of LN. Our data showed Malay patients are 4 higher odds of developing LN within the first 5 years after SLE onset compare to Non-Malay patients.References[1]Yap DY, Tang CS, Ma MK, Lam MF, Chan TM.

Abstract: BackgroundAccording to Statista, 78.5% of the population in Malaysia have completed their vaccination as of 6th january 2022 [1].The acceptance of patients with rheumatic diseases on Covid-19 vaccination is crucial in the long term protection against Covid-19 infection. We conducted a survey to determine the acceptance of Covid-19 vaccination amongst patients with underlying rheumatic disease.ObjectivesTo find out the reasons of vaccination refusal amongst rheumatology patients.MethodsThis was an interview survey. All rheumatology patients who were follow up in rheumatology clinic Hospital Sultan Ismail, Malaysia from 26th April 2021 to 25th July 2021 (total 3 months) were interviewed. Demographic and diagnosis of the patients were collected.ResultsA total of 952 patients were identified. 83.7% of them were female patients (797/952) and majority of them were Malay (46.4%). This was followed by Chinese (36.1%), Indian (16.3%) and others (1.2%). The mean age group was 48 (range from 13 -85).97.6% of the respondents were categorized as having inactive disease during the interview sessions.36.6% of the patients were diagnosed to have rheumatoid arthritis and 29.1% of them were having systemic lupus erythematosus. These were followed by psoriatic arthritis (10.9%), mixed connective tissue disease (5.5%), systemic sclerosis (2.9%), gout (2.6%), Sjogren syndrome (1.9%), ankylosing spondylitis (1.6%), myositis (1.5%), vasculitis (1.3%), osteoarthritis (1.2%), antiphospholipid syndrome (0.9%), non-specific arthralgia (0.8%), juvenile idiopathic arthritis (0.8%), seronegative spondyloarthropathy (0.8%), undifferentiated connective tissue disease (0.7%), adult onset still’s disease 0.5%) and others (< 0.5% each for Ig G 4 related disease, soft tissue rheumatism and fibromyalgia).87.3% of them were keen or have already received Covid-19 vaccination. 12.7% of them were not keen for the vaccination with various reasons.48.8% of them were worrying about worsening clinical condition, 12.4% of them were not keen as they concerned about side effects (3 worry about fever, 1 worry about hepatitis, 1 for nausea, 1 for dizziness, 1 for breathlessness, and 7 for non-specific reasons). 10.7% of them were not keen due to pregnancy, 5.79% of them were not keen as worried about allergic reactions, 4.9% of them were worrying about sudden cardiac death, 4% were not keen as on chemotherapy treatment, 3 % of them doubted the efficacy of vaccination, 2.5% were not keen as they worried about heart disease, 2.5% worried about increase risks of infection and others (2 for old age, 2 for thrombotic event, 2 for drug interaction and 1 patient due to hemodialysis).ConclusionThe overall acceptance rate of Covid-19 vaccination amongst patients with rheumatic diseases is very encouraging with the percentage of >85% despite of lacking knowledge about vaccine Covid-19. This result can assist our Ministry of Health to plan for future battle to improve vaccine uptake that hopefully can lead to herd immunity against COVID-19 infection. More counseling sessions are required to clear up the doubts of vaccination and increase the vaccination rate amongst rheumatic patients.References[1]R.

Abstract: Background:The recent widespread switching of patients with inflammatory rheumatic conditions from originators to biosimilars has largely been driven by costs. The views of patients on switching are also important in the successful long term switching to biosimilars. We conducted a survey of patients views on patients satisfaction with the switch to biosimilar therapy.Objectives:To assess satisfaction and response after switching from originator (Humira or Enbrel) to biosimilar (Amgevita or Benepali respectively), and to describe efficacy, side effects and reactions to biosimilar.Methods:All patients diagnosed with an inflammatory arthritis and switched to biosimilar were identified using the Irish national HighTech electronic prescriptions system. Participants had been administered the biosimilar for > 3 months and were invited to take part via a telephone survey. This consisted of 4 questions (Question 1: satisfaction with the response to the new medication [Using 5 point Likert scale = 0: very dissatisfied; 1: dissatisfied; 2: neutral; 3 satisfied;4: very satisfied]; Question 2: overall satisfaction with biosimilar compared to originator if originator was 10 [satisfaction rating from 1 – 10 scale: 1,2: very dissatisfied; 3,4: dissatisfied; 5: neutral; 6,7,8: satisfied; 9,10: very satisfied]]; Question 3: adverse effects with biosimilars; Question 4: opinion on usage of new device [0: very difficult; 1: difficult; 2: same as previous device; 3: improvement compare to previous device).Results:Baseline characteristics of biosimilar switch patients with disease category were:Category(n)GenderMale (39), Female (56)Mean age (years)56Rheumatoid arthritis58Psoriatic arthritis18Ankylosing spondylitis16Reactive arthritis1Enteropathic arthritis1Juvenile idiopathic arthritis148 switched from Humira to Amgevita.The majority of the patients had positive view towards the effectiveness of the biosimilar: 36% very satisfied; 28% satisfied; 13% neutral; 10% dissatisfied; 13% very dissatisfied.45% of the patients gave score of 9 and 10 in the survey of overall satisfaction to biosimilar if originator was given a score of 10, followed by 32% of them gave a score from 6 to 8, 4% of the patients gave a score of 5 and 7% of them gave a score of 3 and 4. The rest of them gave a score of 1 and 2.12 participants switched back to originator (Humira, n=5; Enbrel, n=7) for the reasons of unable to use the device, anxiety, hemoptysis, nose bleeding, tongue swelling, neck pain, lethargy and generalized itchiness.The most common complaints were (12 patients) systemic side effects (tiredness, headache, nausea, skin rashes, hair loss, muscle ache, tongue swelling, mood swing, dizzy, nose bleed, erectile dysfunction, hypertension, hemoptysis and red sclera).17% of the patients find the biosimilars device easier to use compare to originator and 55% of the patients find both device are similar. 24% and 4% of them find the new device is difficult to very difficult to use respectively.Conclusion:69% of patients from Amgevita group and 60% of patients from Benepali group were satisfied with the change. Only 28% of the patients found the new device difficult to use. Overall conclusion from the study showed less than one quarter of the participants showed dissatifaction towards biosimilar and less than 12 % experienced systemic side effects and whether biosimilar could be a next cost effective biologic therapy to replace originator in future requires a longer duration of study.Disclosure of Interests:None declared

Abstract: Background:Lupus nephritis is an important concern among Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) patients in Asia and its mortality rate was reported to be 6 times higher compared to the general population [1]. Without prompt treatment it can lead to end stage renal failure and affect quality of life. 24 hour urine protein collection has long been used as the gold standard test to assess proteinuria. However due to its cumbersome process random spot urine protein-creatinine ratio is used as an alternative to replace the former in some centres before subjecting patients to renal biopsy. In a study done by Matar HE et al in 2012, he showed that there was a significant correlation between 24 hour urine protein and urine protein creatinine ratio in his 95 subjects [2].Urinalysis is a semi-quantitative screening tool for early detection of potential kidney disorders. A survey done by Siedner MJ et al on practice preferences among American Rheumatologists in 2005 reported that 64.6% of them preferred to use urinalysis as the primary tool to screen for proteinuria [3].Objectives:To assess the correlation of urinalysis test with random spot urine protein-creatinine ratio PCR) compared with 24 hour urine protein.Methods:This was a retrospective study. The electronic medical records of all SLE patients seen in the rheumatology clinic of Hospital Sultan Ismail from 1/1/2017 to 31/12/2020 were reviewed. Patients who had urinalysis, urine protein creatinine ratio and 24 hour urine protein tests done were identified. Data on demography, urinalysis, random spot urine protein creatinine ratio and 24 hour urine protein were obtained and analysed.Results:There were a total of 131 patients and 124 were females. The majority were Malays (75/131) followed by the Chinese (45/131),Indians (9/141) and others (2/131). The mean age group for the studied subjects was 34 (13-67). The urinalysis test showed that 34 of them had negative results, 37 of them had urine protein of 1 +, 18 of them had urine protein of 2+ followed by 23 patients with urine protein of 3 + and the rest had urine protein of 4+. The correlation between urinalysis and 24 hour urine protein was strong (r = 0.702), whereas the correlation between urinalysis and urine PCR ratio was stronger (r = 0.797).Conclusion:We conclude that urinalysis correlates well with both random spot urine protein creatinine ratio and 24 hour urine protein and the correlation is stronger with urine PCR.References:[1]Yap DY, Tang CS, Ma MK, Lam MF, Chan TM.

Abstract: Background: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is characterized by chronic, uncontrolled joint inflammation and tissue destruction. Macrophages are thought to be key mediators in both the initiation and perpetuation of this pathology.1,2 The RA synovium contains a complex inflammatory milieu that can stimulate macrophage-dependent production of proinflammatory cytokines through multiple signaling pathways.1,2 Existing evidence indicates that toll-like receptors (TLRs) and interleukin-1 receptors (IL-1R) along with their agonists, damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) and IL-1β, are highly expressed in RA joints and are important mediators of synovial macrophage activation and proinflammatory cytokine production.1-9 IRAK4 (interleukin-1 receptor-associated kinase 4) is a serine/threonine kinase that facilitates TLR and IL-1R signaling in many cell types, including macrophages.10 IRAK4 inhibition represents an opportunity to reduce proinflammatory cytokine production in the joints of patients with RA. Objectives: To investigate the effect of a highly selective IRAK4 inhibitor on proinflammatory cytokine production from human macrophages stimulated with synovial fluid from patients with RA. Methods: Primary human monocytes from 2 independent donors were differentiated for 6 days with granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) to generate human monocyte-derived macrophages (hMDMs). hMDMs were then pretreated with an IRAK4 inhibitor for 1 hour and subsequently stimulated for 24 hours with RA synovial fluid from 5 patients. Culture supernatants were then assessed for secretion of proinflammatory cytokines by MesoScale Discovery. Results: RA synovial fluid stimulation of hMDMs resulted in the production of several proinflammatory cytokines, including IL-6, IL-8, and TNFα. Pretreatment of hMDMs with an IRAK4 inhibitor resulted in the dose-dependent inhibition of IL-6, IL-8, and TNFα production, with an average EC50 ± SD of 27 ± 31, 26 ± 41, and 28 ± 22 nM, respectively. Maximal percent suppression ± SD of IL-6, IL-8, and TNFα were 76 ± 8.8, 73 ± 15, and 77 ± 13, respectively. To evaluate the specific IRAK4-dependent signaling pathways mediating this response, hMDMs were pretreated with inhibitors of TLR4 (TAK242) and IL-1R (IL-1RA) prior to stimulation with RA synovial fluid. Both TAK242 and IL-1RA inhibited proinflammatory cytokine production. For TAK242, maximal percent suppression ± SD of IL-6, IL-8, and TNFα were 39 ± 25, 48 ± 24, and 50 ± 21, respectively. For IL-1RA maximal percent suppression ± SD of IL-6, IL-8, and TNFα were 18 ± 18, 20 ± 23, and 16 ± 18, respectively. The broad range of inhibition across each stimulation highlights the complexity and variability in the signaling pathways mediating proinflammatory cytokine production from hMDMs stimulated with RA synovial fluid, but demonstrates that RA synovial fluid can stimulate proinflammatory cytokine production in hMDMs, at least partly, through IRAK4-dependent pathways. Conclusion: This work demonstrates that IRAK4 inhibition can suppress proinflammatory cytokine production from macrophages stimulated with synovial fluid from patients with RA and supports a potential pathophysiological role for IRAK4 in perpetuating chronic inflammation in RA.

Abstract: Results are reported on a high statistics study of Bhabha scattering at 29 GeV in the polar angle region, |cos θ| < 0.55. The data are consistent with the standard model, and measure vector and axial-vector coupling constants of gv2 = 0.03 ± 0.09 and ga2 = 0.46±0.14. Limits on the QED-cutoff parameters are Λ+ > 154 GeV and Λ- > 220 GeV. Lower limits on scale parameters of composite models are in the range 0.9-2.8 TeV. The partial width of a hypothetical spin-zero boson decaying to e+e- has an upper limit which varies from 6 to 57 MeV corresponding to a boson mass in the range 45-80 GeV/c2. © 1986.

Abstract: The charged particle multiplicity distribution for e+e− annihilations at s = 29 GeV has been measured using the High Resolution Spectrometer at PEP. The multiplicity distribution, expressed as a function of the mean, shows KNO scaling when compared to e+e− data at other energies. Multiplicity distributions for particles selected in different central rapidity spans are presented. All of these are well presented by the Negative binomial distribution. As the rapidity span is narrowed, the distributions become broader and approach a constant value of the parameter k.

Differential cross sections are presented as a function of the scaled energy variable z and compared to π0 and K0 production. The measured multiplicities are 0.84±0.08 ϱ0 mesons and 0.57±0.09 K ∗0 (890) mesons per event for a meson momentum greater than 725 MeV/c. The ratios of vector meson to pseudoscalar meson production for (u,d), s and c quark are compared to predictions of the Lund model.

Abstract: We present a new determination of the Ds decay constant, f_{Ds} using 5 million continuum charm events obtained with the CLEO II detector. Our value is derived from our new measured ratio of widths for Ds -> mu nu/Ds -> phi pi of 0.173+/- 0.021 +/- 0.031. Taking the branching ratio for Ds -> phi pi as (3.6 +/- 0.9)% from the PDG, we extract f_{Ds} = (280 +/- 17 +/- 25 +/- 34){MeV}. We compare this result with various model calculations., 23 page postscript file, postscript file also available through http://w4.lns.cornell.edu/public/CLNS

The results come from data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 111 pb−1 collected by the High Resolution Spectrometer. Differences were observed in charged multiplicities, momentum distributions, and rapidity of the size expected from the different fragmentation functions and leading particle decay properties of the two samples.

Abstract: We search for CP-violating asymmetries (Acp) in the B meson decays to K+- pi-+, K+- pi0, Ks pi+-, K+- eta', and omega pi+-. Using 9.66 million Upsilon(4S) decays collected with the CLEO detector, the statistical precision on Acp is in the range of \pm 0.12 to \pm 0.25 depending on decay mode. While CP-violating asymmetries of up to \pm 0.5 are possible within the Standard Model, the measured asymmetries are consistent with zero in all five decay modes studied., 10 pages, 3 figures

Abstract: We present the first observation of the decay B{yields}J/{psi}{phi}K . Using 9.6x10{sup 6} BB meson pairs collected with the CLEO detector, we have observed ten fully reconstructed B{yields}J/{psi}{phi}K candidates, whereas the estimated background is 0.5{+-}0.2 event. We obtain a branching fraction of B(B{yields}J/{psi}{phi}K)=( 8.8{sup +3.5}{sub -3.0}[stat] {+-}1.3[syst])x10{sup -5} . This is the first observed B meson decay requiring the creation of an additional ss quark pair. (c) 2000 The American Physical Society.

Abstract: We have searched for the rare decays of the eta prime meson to e+ e- eta, e+ e- pizero, e+ e- gamma, and e mu in hadronic events at the CLEO II detector. The search is conducted on 4.80 fb^-1 of e+ e- collisions at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring. We find no signal in any of these modes, and set 90% confidence level upper limits on their branching fractions of 2.4 X 10^-3, 1.4 X 10^-3, 0.9 X 10^-3, and 4.7 X 10^-4, respectively. We also investigate the Dalitz plot of the common decay of the eta prime to pi+ pi- eta. We fit the matrix element with the Particle Data Group parameterization and find Re(alpha) = -0.021 +- 0.025, where alpha is a linear function of the kinetic energy of the eta.

Abstract: Using 13.7 fb(-1) of data recorded by the CLEO detector at Cornell Electron Storage Ring, we report evidence of two new charmed baryons: one decaying into Xi(0')(c)pi(+) with the subsequent decay Xi(0')(c)-->Xi(0)(c)gamma, and its isospin partner decaying into Xi(+')(c)pi(-) followed by Xi(+')(c)-->Xi(+)(c)gamma. We measure the following mass differences for the two states: M(Xi(0)(c)gammapi(+))-M(Xi(0)(c)) = 318.2+/-1.3+/-2.9 MeV and M(Xi(+)(c)gammapi(-))-M(Xi(+)(c)) = 324.0+/-1.3+/-3.0 MeV. We interpret these new states as the J(P) = 1 / 2(-) Xi(c1) particles, the charmed-strange analogs of the Lambda(+)(c1)(2593).

Abstract: Using a sample of $3.3\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}{10}^{6}$ $B$-meson decays collected with the CLEO detector at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring, we have studied ${B}^{\ensuremath{-}}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}{D}^{0}{\ensuremath{\ell}}^{\ensuremath{-}}\overline{\ensuremath{\nu}}$ and ${\overline{B}}^{0}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}{D}^{+}{\ensuremath{\ell}}^{\ensuremath{-}}\overline{\ensuremath{\nu}}$ decays, where ${\ensuremath{\ell}}^{\ensuremath{-}}$ can be either ${e}^{\ensuremath{-}}$ or ${\ensuremath{\mu}}^{\ensuremath{-}}$. We distinguish $B\ensuremath{\rightarrow}D\ensuremath{\ell}\ensuremath{\nu}$ from other $B$ semileptonic decays by examining the net momentum and energy of the particles recoiling against $D\ensuremath{-}\ensuremath{\ell}$ pairs. We find $\ensuremath{\Gamma}(B\ensuremath{\rightarrow}D\ensuremath{\ell}\ensuremath{\nu})\phantom{\rule{0ex}{0ex}}=\phantom{\rule{0ex}{0ex}}(14.1\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}1.0\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}1.2){\mathrm{ns}}^{\ensuremath{-}1}$ and derive branching fractions for ${B}^{\ensuremath{-}}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}{D}^{0}{\ensuremath{\ell}}^{\ensuremath{-}}\overline{\ensuremath{\nu}}$ and ${\overline{B}}^{0}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}{D}^{+}{\ensuremath{\ell}}^{\ensuremath{-}}\overline{\ensuremath{\nu}}$ of $(2.32\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.17\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.20)%$ and $(2.20\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.16\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.19)%$, respectively, where the uncertainties are statistical and systematic. We also investigate the $B\ensuremath{\rightarrow}D\ensuremath{\ell}\ensuremath{\nu}$ form factor and the implication of the result for $|{V}_{\mathrm{cb}}|$.

Abstract: We have observed four fully reconstructed B{sup 0}{r_arrow}D{sup {asterisk}+}D{sup {asterisk}{minus}} candidates in 5.8{times}10{sup 6} {Upsilon}(4S){r_arrow}B{ovr B} decays recorded with the CLEO detector. The background is estimated to be 0.31{plus_minus}0.10 thinspthinspevents. The probability that the background could produce four or more signal candidates with the observed distribution among D{sup {asterisk}+} and D{sup {asterisk}{minus}} decay modes is 1.1{times}10{sup {minus}4} . The measured decay rate, B(B{sup 0}{r_arrow}D{sup {asterisk}+}D{sup {asterisk} {minus}})=[6.2{sup +4.0}{sub {minus}2.9}( stat){plus_minus}1.0(syst) ]{times}10{sup {minus}4} , is large enough for this decay mode to be of interest for the measurement of a time-dependent CP asymmetry. {copyright} {ital 1999} {ital The American Physical Society}

Abstract: We report the first observation of two narrow charmed strange baryons decaying to {Xi}{sup +}{sub c}{gamma} and {Xi}{sup 0}{sub c}{gamma} , respectively, using data from the CLEO II detector at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring. We interpret the observed signals as the {Xi}{sup +{prime}}{sub c}thinsp( c{l_brace}su{r_brace}) and {Xi}{sup 0{prime}}{sub c}thinsp( c{l_brace}sd{r_brace}) , the symmetric partners of the well-established antisymmetric {Xi}{sup +}{sub c}thinsp(c[ su]) and {Xi}{sup 0}{sub c}thinsp(c[ sd]) . The mass differences M({Xi}{sup +{prime}}{sub c}){minus}M( {Xi}{sup +}{sub c}) and M({Xi}{sup 0{prime}}{sub c}){minus}M( {Xi}{sup 0}{sub c}) have been measured to be 107.8{plus_minus}1.7{plus_minus}2.5 and 107.0{plus_minus}1.4{plus_minus}2.5 MeV /c{sup 2} , respectively. {copyright} {ital 1999} {ital The American Physical Society }

Abstract: The decay {tau}{sup {minus}}{r_arrow}K{sup {asterisk}{minus}}{eta}{nu}{sub {tau}} has been observed with the CLEOthinspthinspII detector. The K{sup {asterisk}{minus}} is reconstructed in two decay channels, K{sup {asterisk}{minus}}{r_arrow}K{sub S}{pi}{sup {minus}}{r_arrow} {pi}{sup {minus}}{pi}{sup +}{pi}{sup {minus}} and K{sup {asterisk}{minus}}{r_arrow}K{sup {minus}}{pi}{sup 0} . The {eta} is reconstructed from the decay {eta}{r_arrow}{gamma}{gamma} . The measured branching fraction is B({tau}{sup {minus}}{r_arrow}K{sup {asterisk}{minus}} {eta}{nu}{sub {tau}})=(2.9{plus_minus} 0.8{plus_minus}0.4){times}10{sup {minus}4} . We also measure the inclusive branching fractions without requiring the K{sup {asterisk}} resonance, B({tau}{sup {minus}}{r_arrow}K{sub S}{pi}{sup {minus}}{eta}{nu}{sub {tau}})=(1.10 {plus_minus}0.35{plus_minus}0.11){times}10{sup {minus}4} and B({tau}{sup {minus}}{r_arrow}K{sup {minus}}{pi}{sup 0}{eta}{nu}{sub {tau}})=(1.77 {plus_minus}0.56{plus_minus}0.71){times}10{sup {minus}4} . The results indicate that the K{sup {asterisk}{minus}} resonance dominates the K{sub S}{pi}{sup {minus}} mass spectrum. {copyright} {ital 1999} {ital The American Physical Society}

27. Variabilité saisonnière et intra-saisonnière de la pluviométrie en milieu forestier dans le Sud-ouest centrafricain

Abstract: Ce travail présente la variabilité intra-saisonnière de la pluviométrie dans le Sud-ouest centrafricain. Les données pluviométriques journalières utilisées couvrent la période 1981–2017. Elles ont été extraites aux points de grilles les plus proches des quatre stations représentatives de la zone d'étude (Bangui, Berberati, Boukoko et Nola) sur la base de données CHIRPS (Climate Hazards Group InfraRed Precipitation with Station data). Un contrôle de qualité de ces données a été effectué à partir d'une inter-comparaison entre les produits d'estimations et les données in-situ sur différentes sous-périodes : 1998–2011 à Nola, 1998–2012 à Berberati, 1998–2014 à Bangui et 2002–2017 à Boukoko. Le coefficient de corrélation entre les données CHIRPS et les observations au pas annuel est faible à Bangui (r=0,46), moyen à Nola (r=0,57) et Berberati (r=0,60), et bon à Boukoko (r=0,73). Les dates de début de la saison de pluies varient entre le 13 février et le 2 avril et celles de fin entre le 31 octobre et le 4 décembre. Des épisodes secs et humides sont mis en évidence dans le Sud-ouest centrafricain. A Bangui et Berberati, la période du 15 au 22 mai 1999 a été sèche soit 23 jours sans pluie. A Boukoko et Nola, la période du 26 juin au 24 juillet de la même année était caractérisée par des épisodes secs. Ces résultats établissent que la répartition intra-saisonnière des pluies n'est pas uniforme dans le Sud-ouest centrafricain.

No evidence for a signal is found in 4.77fb−1 of data and a 95% C.L. upper limit on [τγγBπ+π−]fJ(2220) of 2.5 eV is set. If this result is combined with the BES Collaboration's measurement of fJ(2220)→π+π− in radiative J/Ψ decay and the recent CLEO result for [τγγBK0SK0S]fJ(2220), a 95% C.L. lower limit on the stickiness of 102 is obtained. This result for the stickiness provides further support for a substantial neutral parton content in the fJ(2220). © 1998 The American Physical Society.

Abstract: We report the first observation of B{r_arrow}{eta}{sup {prime}}X transitions with high momentum {eta}{sup {prime}} mesons. We observe 39.0{plus_minus}11.6 B decay events with 2.0{lt}p{sub {eta}{sup {prime}}}{lt}2.7 GeV/c , the high momentum region where background from b{r_arrow}c processes is suppressed. We discuss the physical interpretation of the signal, including the possibility that it is due to b{r_arrow}sg{sup {asterisk}} transitions. Given that interpretation, we find B(B{r_arrow}{eta}{sup {prime}}X{sub s} )=[6.2{plus_minus}1.6(stat){plus_minus} 1.3(syst){sup +0.0}{sub {minus}1.5} (bkg)]{times}10{sup {minus}4} for 2.0{lt}p{sub {eta}{sup {prime}}}{lt}2.7 GeV/c . {copyright} {ital 1998} {ital The American Physical Society }

Abstract: We have searched for two-body charmless decays of B mesons to purely hadronic exclusive final states including $\omega$ or $\phi$ mesons using data collected with the CLEO II detector. With this sample of $6.6 \times 10^6$ B mesons we observe a signal for the $\omega K^+$ final state, and measure a branching fraction of B($B^+ \to \omega K^+$) = 1.5 +0.7 -0.6 +-0.2 $\times 10^{-5}$. We also observe some evidence for the $\phi K^*$ final state, and upper limits are given for 22 other decay modes. These results provide the opportunity for studies of theoretical models and physical parameters.

From the measured branching ratio B(D^(*+)→D^+γ)/B(D^(*+)→D^+π^0) = 0.055±0.014±0.010 we find B(D^(*+)→D^+γ) = 0.017±0.004±0.003, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second is systematic. We also report the highest precision determination of the remaining D^(*+) branching fractions.

Abstract: Using 3.1 fb$^{-1}$ of data accumulated at the $\Upsilon$(4S) by the CLEO-II detector, corresponding to 3.3 million $B\bar{B}$ pairs, we have searched for the color-suppressed $B$ hadronic decay processes: $\bar{B}^0 \to D^0 (D^{*0}) X^0$, where $X^0$ is a light neutral meson $\pi^0$, $\rho^0$, $\eta$, $\eta'$ or $\omega$. No obvious signal is observed. We set 90 % C.L. upper limits on these modes, varying from $1.2 \times 10^{-4}$ for $\bar{B}^0 \to D^0 \pi^0$ to $1.9 \times 10^{-3}$ for $\bar{B}^0 \to D^{*0} \eta'$.

Abstract: In a sample of 6.6×10^6 produced B mesons we have observed decays B→η′K, with branching fractions B(B^+→η′K^+) = (6.5_(-1.4)^(+1.5)±0.9)×10^(-5) and B(B^0→η′K^0) = (4.7_(-2.0)^(+2.7)±0.9)×10^(-5). We have searched with comparable sensitivity for 17 related decays to final states containing an η or η′ meson accompanied by a single particle or low-lying resonance. Our upper limits for these constrain theoretical interpretations of the B→η′K signal.

Abstract: We present a measurement of the absolute branching fraction for D^0→K^-π^+ using the reconstruction of the decay chain B →D^(*+)Xl^-ν , D^(*+)→D^0π^+ where only the lepton and the low-momentum pion from the D^(*+) are detected. With data collected by the CLEO II detector at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring, we have determined B(D^0→K^-π^+) = [3.81±0.15(stat)±0.16(syst)]%.

Abstract: We have searched for the decay $\stackrel{\ensuremath{\rightarrow}}{B}{D}_{s1}^{+}(2536)X$ and measured an upper limit for the inclusive branching fraction of $\mathcal{B}(\stackrel{\ensuremath{\rightarrow}}{B}{D}_{s1}^{+}X)l0.96%$ at the 90% confidence level. This limit is small compared with the total expected $\stackrel{\ensuremath{\rightarrow}}{B}{D}^{(*)}{D}^{(*)}\mathrm{KX}$ rate. Assuming factorization, the ${D}_{s1}^{+}$ decay constant is constrained to be ${f}_{{D}_{s1}^{+}}$114 MeV at the 90% confidence level, at least 2.5 times smaller than that of ${D}_{s}^{+}$.

Abstract: The decays ϒ(4S)→BB , followed by B→D^*π and D^*→Dπ, permit reconstruction of all kinematic quantities that describe the sequence without reconstruction of the D, with reasonably low backgrounds. Using an integrated e^+e^- luminosity of 3.1 fb^(-1) accumulated at the ϒ(4S) by the CLEO-II detector, we report measurements of B(B ^0→D^(*+)π^-) = (2.81±0.11±0.21±0.05)×10^(-3) and B(B-→D^*0π^-) = (4.34±0.33±0.34±0.18)×10^(-3).

Abstract: Using the CLEO detector at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring, we have made a measurement of R≡σ(e^+e^-→hadrons)/σ(e^+e^-→μ^+μ^-)=3.56±0.01±0.07 at √s=10.52 GeV. This implies a value for the strong coupling constant of α_s(10.52 GeV)=0.20±0.01±0.06, or α_s(MZ)=0.13±0.005±0.03.

Abstract: Using data taken with the CLEO II detector at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring, we present the first full angular analysis in the color-suppressed modes B{sup 0}{r_arrow}J/{psi}K{sup *0} and B{sup +}{r_arrow}J/{psi}K{sup *+}. This leads to a complete determination of the decay amplitudes of these modes including the longitudinal polarization {Gamma}{sub L}/{Gamma}=0.52{plus_minus}0.07{plus_minus}0.04 and the P wave component {vert_bar}P{vert_bar}{sup 2}=0.16{plus_minus}0.08{plus_minus}0.04. In addition, we update the branching fractions for B{r_arrow}J/{psi}K and B{r_arrow}J/{psi}K{sup *}. {copyright} {ital 1997} {ital The American Physical Society}

Abstract: The decay {tau}{sup {minus}}{r_arrow}2{pi}{sup {minus}}{pi}{sup + }3{pi}{sup 0}{nu}{sub {tau}} has been studied with the CLEOII detector at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring. The branching fraction is measured to be (2.85{plus_minus}0.56{plus_minus}0.51){times}10{sup {minus}4} . The result is in good agreement with the isospin expectation but somewhat below the conserved-vector-current prediction. We have searched for resonance substructure in the decay. Within the statistical precision, the decay is saturated by the channels {tau}{sup {minus}}{r_arrow}{pi}{sup {minus}}2{pi}{sup 0 }{omega}{nu}{sub {tau}} , 2{pi}{sup {minus}}{pi}{sup +}{eta}{nu}{sub {tau}} , and {pi}{sup {minus}}2{pi}{sup 0}{eta}{nu}{sub {tau}} . This is the first observation of this {omega} decay mode and the branching fraction is measured to be (1.89{sup +0.74}{sub {minus}0.67}{plus_minus}0.40) {times}10{sup {minus}4} . {copyright} {ital 1997} {ital The American Physical Society}

Abstract: We use the CLEO detector at the Cornell e{sup +}e{sup {minus}} storage ring, CESR, to search for the two-photon production of the glueball candidate f{sub J}(2220) in its decay to K{sub s}K{sub s} . We present a restrictive upper limit on the product of the two-photon partial width and the K{sub s}K{sub s} branching fraction, ({Gamma}{sub {gamma}{gamma}}B{sub K{sub s}K{sub s}}){sub f{sub J(2220) }} . We use this limit to calculate a lower limit on the stickiness, which is a measure of the two-gluon coupling relative to the two-photon coupling. This limit on stickiness indicates that the f{sub J}(2220) has substantial glueball content. {copyright} {ital 1997} {ital The American Physical Society}

Abstract: Using data collected in the region of the Upsilon(4S) resonance with the CLEO II detector operating at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring CESR, we present the first observation of B mesons decaying into the charmed strange baryons Xi_c0 and Xi_c+. We find 79 +/- 27 Xi_c0 and 125 +/- 28 Xi_c+ candidates from B decays, leading to product branching fractions of BR(Bbar -> Xi_c0 X)BR(Xi_c0 -> Xi- pi+) = (0.144 +/- 0.048 +/- 0.021) x 10^-3 and BR(Bbar -> Xi_c+ X)BR(Xi_c+ -> Xi- pi+ pi+) = (0.453 +/- 0.096 +0.085-0.065) x 10^-3.

Abstract: We have searched for the rare decay of the eta meson $\eta \to e^{+}e^{-}$ using the CLEO II detector. The $\eta$'s were produced in $e^{+}e^{-}$ collisions with 10 GeV center-of-mass energy at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring (CESR). We find with 90% confidence the upper limit on the branching fraction $B(\eta \to e^{+}e^{-}) < 7.7\times 10^{-5}$. The application of conventional elementary particle theory to this decay predicts a branching fraction of about $10^{-9}$.

Abstract: A search for the decay of the tau lepton to seven charged pions and one or zero pizero mesons was performed using the BaBar detector at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy e+e- collider. The analysis uses 232.2 fb-1 of data at center-of-mass energies on or near the Y(4S) resonance. We observe 24 events with an expected background of 21.6+-1.3 events. Without evidence for a signal, we calculate an upper limit of BR(tau- --> 4pi- 3pi+ (pizero) nu_tau) 4pi- 3pi+ nu_tau and tau- --> 4pi- 3pi+ pizero nu_tau.

Abstract: Using data collected in the region of the {Upsilon}(4S) resonance with the CLEO-II detector, they report on the first observation of exclusive decays of the B meson to final states with a charmed baryon. They have measured the branching fractions {Beta}(B{sup -} {yields} {Lambda}{sub c}{sup +}{bar p}{pi}{sup -}) = (0.62{sub -0.20}{sup +0.23} {+-} 0.11 {+-} 0.10) x 10{sup -3} and {Beta}({bar B}{sup 0} {yields} {Lambda}{sub c}{sup +}{bar p}{pi}{sup +}{pi}{sup -}) = (1.33{sub -0.42}{sup +0.46} {+-} 0.31 {+-} 0.21) x 10{sup -3}. In addition, they report upper limits for final states of the form {bar B} {yields} {Lambda}{sub c}{sup +}{bar p}(n{pi}) and {Lambda}{sub c}{sup +}{bar p}(n{pi}){pi}{sup 0} where (n{pi}) denotes up to four charged pions.

Abstract: We report new measurements of the differential and total branching ratios for inclusive B decay to D{sup 0}, D{sup +}, and D{sup *+} and the first measurement of the same quantities for inclusive B decay to D{sup *0}. Here B is the mixture of B{sub d} and B{sub u} from {Upsilon}(4S) decay. Furthermore, since more than one charm particle (or antiparticle) of the same kind can be produced in B decay, here {open_quotes}inclusive B branching ratio{close_quotes} is used to mean the average number of charm particles and their antiparticles of a certain species produced in B decay. We obtain the following results (the first error is statistical, the second systematic of this analysis, the third propagated from other measurements): B(B{r_arrow}D{sup 0}X)=(0.636{plus_minus}0.014{plus_minus}0.019{plus_minus}0.0 8), B(B{r_arrow}D{sup +}X)=(0.235{plus_minus}0.009{plus_minus}0.009{plus_minus}0.024), B(B{r_arrow}D{sup *0}X) =(0.247{plus_minus}0.012{plus_minus}0.018{plus_minus}0.018), B(B{r_arrow}D{sup *+}X)=(0.239{plus_minus}0.011{plus_minus}0.014{plus_minus}0. 09). The following ratio of branching ratios is not affected by most of the systematic errors: B(B{r_arrow}D{sup *0}X)/ B(B{r_arrow}D{sup *+}X)=(1.03{plus_minus}0.07{plus_minus}0.09{plus_minus}0.08). We also report the first measurement of the momentum-dependent D{sup *0} polarization and a new measurement of the D{sup *+} polarization in inclusive B decay. Using these measurements and other CLEO results and making some additional assumptions, we calculate the average number of c and {bar c} quarks produced in Bmore » decay to be {l_angle}n{sub c}{r_angle}=1.10{plus_minus}0.05. {copyright} {ital 1997} {ital The American Physical Society}« less

Abstract: We have observed new channels for $\ensuremath{\tau}$ decays with an $\ensuremath{\eta}$ in the final state. We study 3-prong tau decays, using the $\ensuremath{\eta}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}\ensuremath{\gamma}\ensuremath{\gamma}$ and $\ensuremath{\eta}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}3{\ensuremath{\pi}}^{0}$ decay modes and 1-prong decays with two ${\ensuremath{\pi}}^{0}$'s using the $\ensuremath{\eta}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}\ensuremath{\gamma}\ensuremath{\gamma}$ channel. The measured branching fractions are $B({\ensuremath{\tau}}^{\ensuremath{-}}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}{\ensuremath{\pi}}^{\ensuremath{-}}{\ensuremath{\pi}}^{\ensuremath{-}}{\ensuremath{\pi}}^{+}\ensuremath{\eta}{\ensuremath{\nu}}_{\ensuremath{\tau}})\phantom{\rule{0ex}{0ex}}=\phantom{\rule{0ex}{0ex}}({3.4}_{\ensuremath{-}0.5}^{+0.6}\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.6)\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}{10}^{\ensuremath{-}4}$ and $B({\ensuremath{\tau}}^{\ensuremath{-}}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}{\ensuremath{\pi}}^{\ensuremath{-}}2{\ensuremath{\pi}}^{0}\ensuremath{\eta}{\ensuremath{\nu}}_{\ensuremath{\tau}})\phantom{\rule{0ex}{0ex}}=\phantom{\rule{0ex}{0ex}}(1.4\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.6\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.3)\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}{10}^{\ensuremath{-}4}$. We observe clear evidence for ${f}_{1}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}\ensuremath{\eta}\ensuremath{\pi}\ensuremath{\pi}$ substructure and measure $B({\ensuremath{\tau}}^{\ensuremath{-}}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}{f}_{1}{\ensuremath{\pi}}^{\ensuremath{-}}{\ensuremath{\nu}}_{\ensuremath{\tau}})\phantom{\rule{0ex}{0ex}}=\phantom{\rule{0ex}{0ex}}({5.8}_{\ensuremath{-}1.3}^{+1.4}\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}1.8)\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}{10}^{\ensuremath{-}4}$.

Abstract: Using the CLEO detector at the Cornell e{sup +}e{sup {minus}} storage ring CESR we study the two-photon production of {Lambda}{bar {Lambda}}, making the first observation of {gamma}{gamma}{r_arrow}{Lambda}{bar {Lambda}}. We present the cross section for {gamma}{gamma}{r_arrow}{Lambda}{bar {Lambda}} as a function of the {gamma}{gamma} center of mass energy and compare it to that predicted by the quark-diquark model. {copyright} {ital 1997} {ital The American Physical Society}
