HERA Luminosity - First Interaction 1992 - Beam Vaccum graded 1997 - P Energy 820-900 GeV 1997
O.S.U. Physics Analysis 1999-2000 Structure Function and High Q2 Camille Ginsburg, Physics Coordinator Contact Interactions Jason Gilmore, Thesis Inclusive D* Photoproduction Cross Section C.L. Kim, Main Analysis Total Photoproduction Cross Section Camille Ginsburg, Main Analysis
N.C. Dependence on - clear evidence for Z exchange in spacelike DIS
Photoproduction HERA basically is 2 colliders in one ! For low Q2 a nearly real photon exchange P Collider E 10-15 GeV W 80-120 GeV Weizacker-Williams corrects to ‘real’ photon
D* Fragmentation Function Summary - NLO calculation below data particularly in forward direction - Fragmentation agrees with other experiments
HERA has NOT Met Lumiosity Expectations Quotes Circa 1987 “ 100 pb-1 /ZEUS YEAR” “ the MC Contains 1000 pb -1 worth of data” HERA Luminosity Upgrade 7X Increase 10 Months Shutdown Starting Sept 2000 - improve beampipe vaccuum - install short focusing quad near interaction region
ZEUS Detector Upgrades - Silicon Vertex Chamber - Straw Tube Tracking Chambers Fast Clear will be Important With 7X Luminosity New Physics Analyses will be Possible !
Extraction of xF3 xF3 parity violating term from Z0 exchange With 1000 pb-1 this will be a Precsion Measurement!
Future ZEUS has produced quality physics in the last eight years HERA is undergoing a major luminosity upgrade beginning in September The Ohio State Group will continue to analyse new data during the shutdown With the new luminosity this group will continue to study high Q2 high x physics
