Abstract
In the broad band neutral beam at Fermi National Accelerator
Laboratory, the dimuon production by high energy neutrons has been
measured for incident neutron energies of approximately 250 and
320 GeV. The mass spectra show clear peaks in the rho-omega mass
region and at the J /psi mass. Cross sections and longitudinal and
transverse momenta distributions are given for the J /psi. The data
between 1.0 and 3.0 GeV /c2 are compared with the mass distribution
predicted by the Drell-Yan model.
