The production of the $\Lambda$(1520) baryonic resonance has been measured at midrapidity in inelastic pp collisions at $\sqrt{s}$ = 7 TeV and in p-Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\rm{NN}}}$ = 5.02 TeV for non-single diffractive events and in multiplicity classes. The resonance is reconstructed through its hadronic decay channel $\Lambda$(1520) $\rightarrow$ pK$^{-}$ and the charge conjugate with the ALICE detector. The integrated yields and mean transverse momenta are calculated from the measured transverse momentum distributions in pp and p-Pb collisions. The mean transverse momenta follow mass ordering as previously observed for other hyperons in the same collision systems. A Blast-Wave function constrained by other light hadrons ($\pi$, K, K$_{\rm{S}}^0$, p, $\Lambda$) describes the shape of the $\Lambda$(1520) transverse momentum distribution up to 3.5 GeV/$c$ in p-Pb collisions. In the framework of this model, this observation suggests that the $\Lambda(1520)$ resonance participates in the same collective radial flow as other light hadrons. The ratio of the yield of $\Lambda(1520)$ to the yield of the ground state particle $\Lambda$ remains constant as a function of charged-particle multiplicity, suggesting that there is no net effect of the hadronic phase in p-Pb collisions on the $\Lambda$(1520) yield.

We report on the measurement of $\rm{J}/\psi$ production in the dielectron channel at mid-rapidity (|y|<1) in p+p and d+Au collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}$ = 200 GeV from the STAR experiment at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider. The transverse momentum $p_{T}$ spectra in p+p for $p_{T}$ < 4 GeV/c and d+Au collisions for $p_{T}$ < 3 GeV/c are presented. These measurements extend the STAR coverage for $\rm{J}/\psi$ production in p+p collisions to low $p_{T}$. The $<p_{T}^{2}>$ from the measured $\rm{J}/\psi$ invariant cross section in p+p and d+Au collisions are evaluated and compared to similar measurements at other collision energies. The nuclear modification factor for $\rm{J}/\psi$ is extracted as a function of $p_{T}$ and collision centrality in d+Au and compared to model calculations using the modified nuclear Parton Distribution Function and a final-state $\rm{J}/\psi$ nuclear absorption cross section.

Results are reported on the reaction p p → π + π + π − π − π 0 at six lab momenta spanning the region from 0.686 to 1.098 GeV/ c . The cross section for this process drops from 20.3 ± 1.2 mb at 0.686 GeV/ c to 13 1.0 mb at 1.098 GeV/ c . Resonance production is determined by means of a model which includes Bose symmetrization, Breit-Wigner amplitudes and Bose-Einstein correlations for the like-charged pion pairs in the nonresonant part of the amplitude. The likelihood fit to the resonance channels yields about 0.8% ηππ , 12% ϱ ± πππ , 2% f πππ , 8% ω ππ , 22% ϱ ± ϱ 0 π , 13% ωϱ 0 and 9% ω f with errors on the order of a few percent. Several percent A 1 ± ππ and X(1440) π were also needed to obtain good fits. The ϱ 0 πππ and ϱ 0 ϱ 0 π channels as well as A 2 ππ and A 1 0 ππ are consistent with zero. Reasonable fits to the mass distributions are obtained. Production angular distributions are found to be essentially uniform. The angular correlations between pion pairs are approximately fit by the simple model of resonance production with Bose symmetrization.

Approximately 100 000 four-prong antiproton annihilations in hydrogen were measured. A clean, unbiased sample of 842 K + K − π + π − events was obtained. This reaction is dominated by K ∗ (∼45%) and ϱ 0 (∼20%) production, with smaller amounts of A 2 0 (∼15%) and ϕ (∼5%) production. 25% of the reactions involved double resonance production. No significant three-body resonance production is observed.

Data are presented for the reaction ep → ep π 0 at a nominal four-momentum transfer squared of 0.5 (GeV/ c ) 2 . The data were obtained using an extracted electron beam from NINA and two magnetic spectrometers for coincidence detection of the electron and proton. Details are given of the experimental method and the results are given for isobar masses in the range 1.19 – 1.73 GeV/ c 2 .

K − p elastic scattering at 10 GeV/ c is studied on ∼3600 bubble chamber events. The elastic cross section is found to be σ el = (3.20 ± 0.14)mb and the ratio σ el σ tot = (0.142 ± 0.006) , that is below the upper limit of 0.185 suggested in a model by Van Hove. The value of the forward differential cross section is consistent with zero real part to the scattering amplitude. The slope of d σ d t is similar to that for π ± and greater than that of K + , with no evidence for shrinkage of the diffraction peak. No events of backward scattering were observed. The Regge-pole model of Phillips and Rarita gives a good fit to the data.

Double differential cross sections for photons above 20 MeV energy were measured for the p+d reaction at 200 MeV. A comparison is made with previous measurements at 140 and 197 MeV. Below 80 MeV photon energy the cross sections and the angular distribution are in reasonable agreement with a recent calculation of the free pnγ elementary process.

Reaction cross sections and production cross sections for neutrons, hydrogen, and helium have been measured for 1.2, 1.8 GeV p+Fe, Ni, Ag, Ta, W, Au, Pb and U and are compared with different intra-nuclear-cascade- combined with evaporation-models. Agreement for neutrons and considerable differences for light charged particles are observed between experiment and calculation as well as between different models. The discrepancies are associated with specific deficiencies in the models. The exclusive data measured with two 4π-detectors for neutron and charged particle detection allowed furthermore a systematic comparison of observables characteristic of different stages of the temporal evolution of a spallation reaction: inelastic collision probability, excitation energy distribution, pre-equilibrium emission, and inclusive production cross sections.

Double-differential cross sections for photons above 20 MeV were measured for the 3He+(d, C, Cu and Au) reactions at 284 MeV. The comparison of their energy spectra shows that the high-energy gamma rays are produced by the same mechanism in the very light 3He + d system and in heavier ones like 3He + (C, Cu and Au) or Xe + Sn, previously studied by the MSU group. A calculation of the 3He+(C and Au) systems at 90° in the laboratory was performed, assuming that photons are produced in first-chance nucleon-nucleon collisions and for a realistic momentum distribution of the nucleons in the 3He projectile. The results are in good agreement with the experimental data which suggests that secondary collisions are not important in the production of photons above 50 MeV for nucleus-nucleus reactions at 90 MeV/nucleon.
