A 7.5 GeV linearly polarized photon beam was used to study ϱ 0 production on d, n and p in the SLAC 82 inch bubble chamber. The production of ϱ 0 is found to proceed mainly via t -channel natural parity exchange and to conserve s -channel c.m.s. helicity for small t . The I = 1 contribution to the γ N → ϱ 0 t -channel amplitude is found to be small at 7.5 GeV.

THE FOURTH REACTION IS THE SUM OF THE FIRST THREE, NAMELY THE CLOSURE DIFFERENTIAL CROSS SECTION.
DIPION EVENTS IN THE RHO0 MASS REGION (600 TO 880 MEV).
The K L o p → K S o p differential and total cross-section and the forward scattering amplitude phase φ have been measured in the 1.5 to 2.3 GeV centre of mass energy range. The data is compared with predictions based on recent K ± N phase shift solutions. Best agreement is found for K + N solutions which do not warrant an I=0 P 1 2 exotic Z ∗ o (1800) baryon.

The total and differential cross sections of the K¯0p→Λπ+ and K¯0p→∑0π+ reactions have been measured in the centre-of-mass energy range of l.5 to 2.3 GeV. Using our K¯0p→∑0π+ data as well as available cross-section data of isospin related channels, we have calculated the total I=0K¯N→∑π cross section as function of energy. The results are compared with predictions obtained from K¯N phase-shift analyses.

We have measured the total and differential cross-sections for coherently photoproduced ϱ, ω and ϱ′ on deuterium at 7.5 GeV. Using VDM relations, we have obtained γ ω 2 / γ ϱ 2 = 7.1 ± 1.5, σ T ( ϱ d) = (54 ± 2) mb and σ T ( ω d) = (56 ± 5) mb. Assuming the amplitude for ϱ′ production via an intermediate ϱ 0 to be small and that the amplitudes for ϱp and ϱ′p elastic scattering are comparable, we found γ ϱ ′ 2 / γ ϱ 2 = 6.0 ± 1.2 and σ T ( ϱ ′d) = (47 ± 6) mb.

FROM AN EXPONENTIAL FIT WITH DEUTERON FORM FACTOR.
The reaction π−p→X−p, X−→ηπ−, η→γγ has been studied in an optical spark-chamber experiment at the Argonne ZGS (Zero Gradient Synchrotron) at a beam momentum of 6.0 GeV/c and with 0.27≤|t|≤0.42 (GeV/c)2. The ηπ mass spectrum contains about 1400 events in the mass range 0.80<M(ηπ)<1.55 GeV/c2, and is dominated by approximately 1000 events of the type A2−→ηπ−. No structure is discernible within the A2 mass spectrum for an experimental resolution of 7.1 MeV/c2 [16.7 MeV/c2 FWHM (full width at half maximum)]. A single D-wave Breit-Wigner distribution fits the data with a high confidence level, yielding for the A2 the parameters M0=1.323±0.003 GeV/c2 and Γ0=0.108±0.009 GeV/c2. The angular distribution of the decay A2−→ηπ− is analyzed and the resultant density matrix elements have the values ρ11=0.45±0.02, ρ1−1=0.45±0.04, and ρ00=0.09±0.04. All other elements are consistent with zero. Finally, the missing-mass spectrum in the region of the A2 is presented. A signal of 230 events above background per 5-MeV/c2 interval is observed at the A2 peak, with a signal to background ratio of greater than 1:1. A single D-wave Breit-Wigner distribution together with a quadratic background fits the data well, with the parameters for the A2 being M0=1.324±0.003 GeV/c2 and Γ0=0.104±0.009 GeV/c2. Both A2 mass spectra are incompatible with the dipole shape.

THIS FIT ASSUMES ALL OTHER DENSITY MATRIX ELEMENTS (RHO(2M) AND RE(RHO(10))) ARE ZERO SINCE THEY ARE QUITE CONSISTENT WITH ZERO IN A FULL FIT. QUOTED ERRORS INCLUDE SYSTEMATIC ERRORS, WHILE STATISTICAL FITTING ERRORS ARE SHOWN SEPARATELY.
The differential cross sections for neutron-proton charge-exchange scattering have been measured for incident neutron momenta between 8 and 29 GeV /c and for four-momentum transfers | t | between 0.002 and 1.0 (GeV/ c ) 2 . A neutron beam with a broad momentum spectrum was scattered from a liquid hydrogen target. The momenta and scattering angles of the forward-scattered protons were measured by a spark-chamber magnet spectrometer. The flight times and scattering angles of the recoil neutrons were measured by a bank of thick scintillation counters. The efficiencies of the neutron counters were determined in a separate measurement. Absolute normalization of the data was obtained from a measurement of the diffraction dissociation of neutrons from carbon nuclei. Differential cross sections, based on ∼ 23 000 events, are presented for 9 different momenta. The shape of the differential cross sections and the momentum dependence are examined in detail.

The reaction γ d→d ππ , γ p→p ππ and γ n→n ππ were studied in the SLAC 82″ deuterium filled bubble chamber, exposed to a linearly polarized photon beam of 7.5 GeV. All three reactions are dominated by ϱ 0 production. The differential cross section has a slope of ∼6.5 GeV −2 for nucleon reactions and a slope of ∼27 GeV −2 for coherent deuteron reactions. The behaviour of the density matrix elements shows that ϱ production conserves s -channel c.m.s. helicity and is dominated by natural parity exchange.

Total and partial γd, γp and γn reactions were studied in the SLAC 82 inch deuterium-filled bubble chamber, which was exposed to a linearly polarized photon beam at an energy of 7.5 GeV. We report total, topological and channel cross sections for these reactions. The γn average charge multiplicity was found to be one unit of charge less than the γp average charge multiplicity. The isoscolar-isovector interference term as calculated by comparing the γp charge symmetric reactions is found to be small.

A study of pp interactions at an incident momentum of 16.2 GeV/ c leading to two-prong non-strange final states was carried out in an exposure of the 2m CERN hydrogen bubble chamber. The c.m. angle and momentum distributions for the outgoing particles in the final states pn π + and pp π 0 are presented and discussed. These final states were analysed in terms of quasi two-body final states - N(Nπ), with the pion-nucleon system in an I = 1 2 or I = 3 2 state. A determination of these two isospin amplitudes and their interference term is then carried out. The reaction pp → pn π + is found to be well described by a Reggeized exchange model, as well as by a double Regge-exchange model.

Total and differential elastic cross-section data are presented at eight incident π+ momenta: 1.28, 1.34, 1.40, 1.43, 1.55, 1.68, 1.77, and 1.84 GeVc. These data were obtained from a hydrogen-bubble-chamber exposure at the Bevatron, and contain more than 65 000 events. This represents more than 1½ times the world's data hitherto available in this energy region.
