Abstract

We have measured the $p_{⊥}$ and $p_{∥}$ dependence of $J$ production by high-energy neutrons in comparison with the production of the conventional vector mesons. We also report values for total inclusive cross sections for resonance and continuum dimuons, and give an upper limit for $ψ^{'}$ production.
