Using the CLEO III detector, we measure absolute cross sections for e+e−→hadrons at seven center-of-mass energies between 6.964 and 10.538 GeV. The values of R, the ratio of hadronic and muon pair production cross sections, are determined within 2% total root-mean-square uncertainty.3 MoreReceived 18 June 2007DOI:https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevD.76.072008©2007 American Physical Society
