Topological and channel cross sections are given for the more common final states produced in K − p interactions at 8.25 GeV/ c together with the single particle inclusive cross sections. We present cross sections for prominent resonances occurring in final states K N (nπ) and find the resonance fractions to be roughly independent of multiplicity.

Based on our measurement of the ratio f(π − π 0 p ) f(π + π − n ) =2.07±0.05 for antiproton annihilation at rest in liquid deuterium, we find that S-wave annihilation of the antiproton on the proton or neutron into ππ is dominant. We quote a 95% confidence level upper limit of 8% for P-wave annihilation into ππ.

Cross sections are given for the various exclusive reactions K − p→ Λ 0 + n pions, as well as for quasi two-body final states involving ϱ 0 , ω 0 and Y 1 ∗ (1385) resonance production. The general features of Λ 0 production are presented as a function of the pion multiplicity n . Production of Y 1 ∗+ (1385) is clearly observed at all multiplicities while the Y 1 ∗− (1385) signals grow with the multiplicity, as expected in a non-exotic exchange picture. The polarisation of the Λ 0 is consistent with zero everywhere, except when it is a decay product of Y 1 ∗ (1385), when non-zero values are found for odd values of n . The reactions Λ 0 + 2π and Λ 0 + 3π are analysed in terms of the Plahte-Roberts model and good overall agreement is obtained for the various effective mass distributions and the p L ∗ , p T and cos θ distributions for the individual particles.

In this paper a comparison of the general features of the reactions K ± p→Q ± p (1) at incident momentum 8.25 GeV/ c is presented. The relevant data derive from events yielding four-constraint fits to the reactions K ± p→K ± π + π − p in exposures of the CERN 2m HBC to RF-separated K + and K − beams. The (K ππ ) effective mass distributions, production angular distributions in the Q region (1.2⩽ M (K ππ )⩽1.5 GeV) and corresponding decay angular distributions are exhibited, and background effects due to N ∗ and Δ production are systematically studied. In particular, it is found that the distributions d σ /d t ′ and d σ /d t for reactions (1) are adequately described by exponential functions over the interval 0.05–0.35 GeV 2 , and exhibit a cross-over effect for momentum transfer squared −0.1 GeV 2 . For both reactions a flattening of d σ /d t ′ for t ′ < 0.05 GeV 2 is observed. By studying the Chew-Low plots and the effects of the different cuts it was found that this flattening cannot be attributed to amplitudes with net s -channel helicity flip different from zero, at least at these energies.

The reactions p p → K ∗ (890) X , p p →Σ ± (1385) X and p p → S ∗ (993) X at 12 GeV/ c incident momentum have been studied using 19 000 events with a visible V 0 decay in BEBC. Inclusive production cross sections of these resonances as a function of transverse momentum and rapidity are presented. The contribution of annihilation to the production of the K ∗ (890) is investigated from a comparison with the corresponding pp data.

Results are presented on the inclusive reactions p p → K 0 X , p p → Λ X and p p → Λ X at an incident antiproton momentum of 12 GeV/ c in BEBC. The cross sections are studied as functions of the Feynman scaling variable x , the rapidity, the transverse momentum of the V 0 and the missing mass squared. The dependence of the Λ and Λ polarization on x are also studied. Comparisons with proton-proton data at 12 GeV/ c are also made. Finally, events with two detected V 0 are analyzed in order to study correlations arising from the production of two strange neutral particles.

Neutral-kaon decays to π e ν were analysed to determine the q 2 dependence of the K 0 e3 electroweak form factor f + . Based on 365 612 events, this form factor was found to have a linear dependence on q 2 with a slope λ + =0.0245±0.0012 stat ±0.0022 syst .
The Q2 dependence of FORMFACTOR+ is usually approximated as: FORMFACTOR+(Q2) = CONST * ( 1 + Q2 * CONST(NAME=LAMBDA+)/M(C=PI)**2).
The ratio of the branching fractions for p p →K + K − and p p →π + π − was determined with the CPLEAR detector, by stopping antiprotons in a gaseous hydrogen target at 15 bar pressure. It was found to be BR(K + K − )/BR( π + π − )=0.205± 0.016. The fraction of P-wave annihilation at rest at this target density was deduced to be (38±9)%.
CONST is the fraction of P-wave annihilation in gaseous hydrogen at pressu re of 15 bar. In the SIG/SIG the statistical and systematic errors are added qu adratically.
CP violation has been observed as a time-dependent rate asymmetry between the decays ${⩈erline K}^0 ⌝ghtarrow ≪^{0} ≪^{0}$ and K0 → π0π{0}, where the neutral kaons are produced with definite and individually known strangeness in ${⋏r p}p ⌝ghtarrow{⩈erline K}^0 K^+≪^- $ or p̅p → K0 K− π+. A special technique for the data analysis has been developed. The values obtained for ϕ00 and ¦ η00¦ are in agreement with those of previous measurements of CP violation.

The neutral kaon regeneration amplitude in carbon at momenta between 250 and 750 MeV/ c was determined by measuring the interference of inherent and coherently regenerated K S amplitudes. This interference appears in the rates of initially pure (tagged) K 0 and K 0 decaying to π + π − after crossing a carbon absorber.
