We have determined mW=79.91±0.39 GeV/c2 from an analysis of W→eν and W→μν data the Collider Detector at Fermilab in ¯pp collisions √s=1.8 TeV. From this result world-average Z mass, weak mixing angle is to be sin2θW=0.232±0.008. An upper bound on top-quark mass derived discussed.Received 13 August 1990DOI:https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevD.43.2070©1991 American Physical Society
We present a measurement of the inclusive jet cross section in p¯p collisions at √s =1.8 TeV Fermilab Tevatron using Collider Detector Fermilab. Good agreement is seen with predictions recent next-to-leading-order [O(α3s)] QCD predictions. The dependence on clustering cone size reported for first time. An improved limit Λc, term characterizing possible quark substructure, set 1.4 (95% C.L.).Received 7 August 1991DOI:https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevLett.68.1104©1992 American Physical Society
