HPW High-y Anomaly June 19762018Paris Sept 2018---- --------Konrad Kleinknecht16

HPW cross-section ratio nubar/nu showsthreshold at 50 GeV, July 19762018Paris Sept 2018---- --------Konrad Kleinknecht17

HPW cross-section ratio nubar/nuagrees below 30 GeV with bubblechamber value 0.38 -0.06but increases above 30 GeV to0.6 -0.1July 19762018Paris Sept 2018---- --------Konrad Kleinknecht18

State of the art end of 1976--Dimuon and mu- e events observed,origin either hadron (charm) or heavy lepton--scaling works for neutrinos, but not forantineutrinos--hadronic neutral weak currents observed2018Paris Sept 2018---- --------Konrad Kleinknecht19

CERN SPSConstruction started 1971, 4 years after FermilabFirst beams in 1976Proposals P1 and P3 (1973), and BEBC designedfor West Area NBB and WBB neutrino beams2018Paris Sept 2018---- --------Konrad Kleinknecht20

Proposal CDHScollaboration(P1) July 19732018Paris Sept 2018---- --------Konrad Kleinknecht21

CDHS Proposal Had.Cal. Mu Spectrometer2018Paris Sept 2018---- --------Konrad Kleinknecht22

CDHS original proposal 19732018Paris Sept 2018---- --------Konrad Kleinknecht23

CDHS proposal: Iron Core Magnet 19732018Paris Sept 2018---- --------Konrad Kleinknecht24

Proposal 8Paris Sept 2018---- --------Konrad Kleinknecht25

Setup Proposal P3 for SPSCLArgon/Fe-Calorimeter(340t) Air core solenoid magnet (820t)2018Paris Sept 2018---- --------Konrad Kleinknecht26

SPSC Committee at CERNnot convinced by either proposal, P1 or P3,both are a combination of Hadron Cal as target a magnet behind.SPSC urges collaborations to unite –with no success.In february 1974 comes a new idea by Heinrich Wahl :combine calorimeter and iron core magnet byinstrumenting ICM with scintillator (Memo M25):SPSC and NPRC approve WA1 CDHS april 19742018Paris Sept 2018---- --------Konrad Kleinknecht27

P3 group made new proposal P49 (Oct. 1975)aiming at neutral current interactionsapproved March 1976 as WA18 CHARM st results in 19792018Paris Sept 2018---- --------Konrad Kleinknecht28

Results CDHS from 1977:1) Dimuons of opposite sign, PL69B(1977) 377: 315 eventsshow „remarkable agreementwith hypothesis of charmproduction anddecay“;“evidence againstmodels with heavy lepton“;„evidence against bottom quarkproduction by antineutrinos“2018Paris Sept 2018---- --------Konrad Kleinknecht29

CDHS results2) dimuons with like sign , PL 70B (1977) 396:47 events , mostly background from pion decays of thehadron shower; excess is (3 -2)x 10-4 of CC, may wellbe due to hadronic production of c-cbar pair;no evidence for cascading heavy leptons2018Paris Sept 2018---- --------Konrad Kleinknecht30

Conclusions from 20 years of experiments1) Scaling in y valid2) Scaling violations in x in agreement with QCD, butnot with Abelian field theories or scalar gluons3) Dimuon events due to charm production and decay4) Neutral currents with Weinberg parametersin2 thW 0.232 - 0.006points to W and Z masses in agreement with LEPdiscoveries2018Paris Sept 2018---- --------Konrad Kleinknecht42

JohnUpdikespoem2018Neutrinos, they are very smallThey have no charge and have no massAnd do not interact at all.The earth is just a silly ballTo them, through which they simply pass, Likedustmaids down a drafty hall Or photonsthrough a sheet of glass.They snub the most exquisite gas,Ignore the most substantial wall,Cold-shoulder steel and sounding brass,Insult the stallion in his stall,And, scorning barriers of class,Infiltrate you and me! Like tallAnd painless guillotines, they fallDown through our heads into the grass.At night, they enter at NepalAnd pierce the lover and his lassFrom underneath the bed—you callIt wonderful; I call it crass.— John UpdikeParis Sept 2018---- --------Konrad Kleinknecht43
