We have investigated the final states K ∗0 (890)Σ, K ∗0 (890)Σ 0 and K ∗0 (890) Y 1 ∗0 (1385) produced in π − p interactions at 3.93 GeV/ c . We present the differential cross sections and spin density matrix elements for the resonances as functions of momentum transfer, as well as the gL and Σ 0 polarizations. The Σ 0 polarization is found to be positive and maximal. An amplitude analysis is performed for the K ∗ Λ and K ∗ Σ 0 reactions, and it is found that one natural parity transversity amplitude is dominant for the latter.

We have measured ep, eπ+, and eπ− coincidences for scattered electrons in the range Q2=0.4 to 2.2 GeV2 and W=2 to 4 GeV. We find (a) that vector-meson production decreases with Q2 more rapidly than does the total virtual-photon-plus-proton cross section, more rapidly even than the prediction of simple vector dominance, (b) that the slope of the t distribution in ρ and ω production becomes flatter with increasing Q2 and seems to be at least approximately a function of the single variable xρ=(Q2+mρ2)2Mν, (c) that the fraction of final states containing a proton decreases with increasing Q2, (d) that in the central region of longitudinal momenta the inclusive π+ yield seems to increase relative to the π− yield as Q2 increases, and (e) that the average transverse momentum of π− is greater than of π+ in the central region of longitudinal momenta.

The data with (C=Q=RHO+OMEGA) are obtained by excluding the contribution from RHO and OMEGA production.

We have measured angular distributions for single photoproduced π+ mesons at 4.0-, 5.0-, and 7.5-GeV incident photon energies and at lab angles from 11° to 66° with the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center 8-GeV spectrometer. Combined with previous Stanford Linear Accelerator Center results, this gives complete angular coverages for this range of energies. The data show the usual "t" and "u" diffraction peaks and a "central plateau" region dropping as S−7.3.

We have made a study of the coherent reaction K + d → K 0 π + d at 2 GeV/ c , using data obtained in the Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory 25 inch bubble chamber. The cross section for this reaction is 324 ± 25 μ b, after correction for invisible K 0 decays. This reaction is dominated primarily by vector exchange. We determine the parameters of the ω trajectory to be α ω = (0.33 ± 0.04) + t .

Data are presented which firmly establish the existence of the double charge exchange reaction p p → Σ − Σ − at 3.6 GeV/ c . The forward cross section was found to be (5.9 ± 1.1) μb and the ratio of the “forbidden” to “allowed” forward cross section is R = σ( Σ − Σ − σ( Σ + Σ + ) = 0.09 ± 0.02 .

We have measured with good statistics the differential cross section for p p →π + π − , K + K − around 0°. Our data and previous results show that the s -dependence of dσ/d t has a value compatible with the appropriate baryon exchange.

We have measured ρ0, ω (combined) and ϕ electroproduction over a range of virtual-photon four-momentum Q2 from 0.4 to 2.2 GeV2 and for photon energies ν from 2.7 to 8.6 GeV. We find that the slope of the t (momentum transfer) dependence of the ρ0 and ω forward peak decreases with increasing Q2 to less than half of the photoproduction slope.
The cross section for virtual photon are derived from E- P cross section bydividing on the virtual-photon flux factor.
A new method, using spark chambers, for the study of the reactions π ± + p → ϱ ± + p is described. The charged pion and both γ rays from the π ± decay are detected. Differential and integrated cross sections σ π + =50 ± 9 μ b, σ π − =47 ± 9 μ b) for 0.0 ⩽| t |⩽1. (GeV/ c ) 2 and a laboratory momentum ( p Lab ) of 15 GeV/c are presented. The momentum dependence of σ γ ± is well fitted from 2.7 to 16 GeV/c by σ = K p Lab − with n γ + = 1.80 ± 0.80 and n γ − = 1.87 ± 0.15.

In a study of the production mechanism of quasi-two-body final states at the five incident π+ momenta 2.95, 3.2, 3.5, 3.75, and 4.08 GeV/c, approximately 40 000 events with four outgoing charged particles were investigated. The cross sections for the processes π+p→N*++ρ, π+p→N*++ω, π+p→N*++η, and π+p→N*++f have been measured as a function of the pion energy. The differential cross sections and the decay density-matrix elements are discussed in terms of one-meson-exchange models [with absorption (OPEA) and with form factor (OPEW)] and Regge models. For the N*++ρ and the N*++ω reactions, the joint-decay matrix elements are calculated. The formation of N*(2850) in the direct channel is also investigated.
