We report the branching ratios of the χc2(13P2) and χc0(13P0) charmonium resonances to two photons using event samples collected by Fermilab experiment E835 in the reactions p¯p→χc2(13P2)[χc0(13P0)]. Our result for the χc2 is B(χc2→γγ)=(1.35±0.25±0.12)×10−4. We set a 95% upper limit for the χc0 branching ratio B(χc0→γγ) at 2.09×10−4.

Total reaction cross sections σR of (30–60)AMeV 4,6,8He and 6,7,8,9,11Li on Pb, and 2n-removal cross sections σ−2n of 6,8He and 11Li on Pb, were measured by injecting magnetically separated, focused, monoenergetic, secondary beams of those projectiles into a telescope containing Pb targets separated by thin Si detectors. All these σR’s (except 4He), and σ−2n for 6He and 11Li, are underpredicted by microscopic model calculations which include only nuclear forces. Better agreement is achieved by including electromagnetic dissociation in the model, for those projectiles for which either the electric dipole response functions or the dominant photodissociation cross sections were known. The cross sections σ−4n for 8He, σ−xn for 7,8,9Li, and (σ−3n+σ−4n) for 11Li were found to be ⩽0.7 b. All σR’s were measured to better than 5% accuracy, showing that the method is usable for other target elements sandwiched into a Si telescope.

Attenuation measurements of reaction and total cross sections have been made for π− beams at 410, 464, and 492 MeV on targets of CD2, 6Li, C, Al, S, Ca, Cu, Zr, Sn, and Pb. These results are assisted by and compared to predictions from a recent eikonal optical model. Calculations with this model, which does not include pion absorption, agree with recent elastic scattering data, but are significantly below our measured reaction and total cross sections.

Yields and phase space distributions of φ -mesons emitted from p+p (minimum bias trigger), p+Pb (at various centralities) and central Pb+Pb collisions are reported ( E beam =158 A GeV). The decay φ →K + K − was used for identification. The φ / π ratio is found to increase by a factor of 3.0±0.7 from inelastic p+p to central Pb+Pb. Significant enhancement in this ratio is also observed in subclasses of p+p events (characterized by high charged-particle multiplicity) as well as in the forward hemisphere of central p+Pb collisions. In Pb+Pb no shift or significant broadening of the φ -peak is seen.

The p̄ 3 He annihilation cross section is measured for the first time in the momentum interval (50÷60) MeV/ c . About 9000 pictures collected by the Streamer Chamber Collaboration (PS179) at LEAR–CERN have been scanned. Six events are found, corresponding to σ ann =1850±700 mb. The result is compared to the set of measurements presently available in the region of low p̄ momentum.
The mean beam momentum at the center of the fiducial volume = 55 MeV.
Tensor polarization observables (t20, t21 and t22) have been measured in elastic electron-deuteron scattering for six values of momentum transfer between 0.66 and 1.7 (GeV/c)^2. The experiment was performed at the Jefferson Laboratory in Hall C using the electron HMS Spectrometer, a specially designed deuteron magnetic channel and the recoil deuteron polarimeter POLDER. The new data determine to much larger Q^2 the deuteron charge form factors G_C and G_Q. They are in good agreement with relativistic calculations and disagree with pQCD predictions.

The antineutron–proton total cross section has been measured in the low momentum range 50–400 MeV/ c (below 100 MeV/ c for the first time). The measurement was performed at LEAR (CERN) by the OBELIX experiment, thanks to its unique antineutron beam facility. A thick target transmission technique has been used. The measured total cross section shows an anomalous behaviour below 100 MeV/ c . A dominance of the isospin I =0 channel over the I =1 one at low energy is clearly deduced.
Measured values of the total cross section.
Neutral and charged two-pion production in p+d→ 3 He+2 π reactions has been studied at CELSIUS at a proton beam energy of 477 MeV. The total cross section for double pion production is 0.22±0.03 μ b. The ratio of the cross sections for the production of charged pion pairs with isospin T =1 and T =0 was determined to be σ ( π + π − ; T =1)/ σ ( π + π − ; T =0)=1.4±0.4.
