Description
The search by E-735 for QGP evidence in centrally produced particles in {bar p}p collisions has revealed several interesting results in the behavior with variation of dN{sub c}/d{eta} in the measured interval from 2--18. In {l angle}P{sub t}{r angle} we see a decrease in slope for all particles near dN{sub c}/d{eta} {approx equal} 9 corresponding to a Bjorken initial energy density of 2.2 GeV/{sub fm}{sup 3}. Above dN{sub c}/d{eta} = 10, the increase of {l angle}P{sub t}{r angle} is small except for {bar p}'s where the data suggest a 25% increase in the region 13--18. In the particle ratios, normalizing to {pi}'s, they (K, {bar p}, {Lambda}{sup 0}, {gamma}) are all independent of dN{sub c}/d{eta} within errors of {plus minus} 15% except for K{sup {plus minus}}/{pi}{sup {plus minus}} which increases by 30% in the interval 7 to 18. Based on the E-735 data analyzed to data, one can conclude that QGP is not manifest in {bar p}p collisions at 1.8 TeV. Nonetheless, there are the two effects mentioned above, which can be explored with much improved sensitivity using the high-statistics data of the '88--'89 run.
