Abstract

This report summarizes the data presented in two lectures where more details on concepts were given. The report covers data taken by the UA2 collaboration at the CERN pp Collider during the 1982–1983 runs at /s = 546 GeV and the 1984 run at /s = 630 GeV with integrated luminosities of 142 nb-1 and 310 nb-1 respectively.
