Observation of events with an energetic forward neutron in deep inelastic scattering at HERA

Abstract: In deep inelastic neutral current scattering of positrons acid protons at the center of mass energy of 300 GeV, we observe, with the ZEUS detector, events with a high energy neutron produced at very small scattering angles with respect to the proton direction. The events constitute a fixed fraction of the deep inelastic, neutral current event sample independent of Bjorken x and Q(2) in the range 3 . 10(-4)

“…The strong coupling constant s is calculated from the two-loop formula with 5 MS = 130 MeV, since this value is also used in the NLO-GRV parametrisation. Changing 5 MS from 130 to 250 MeV only in the s formula increases the two-jet cross-section by factors from 1.4 to 1.07 in the range 3 < E jet T < 16 GeV for p s ee = 130 136 GeV [29].…”
