A sample of approximately 250 Λp interactions has been obtained in the Λ-hyperon momentum range of about 300 to 500 MeV/ c . An enhanced Λ-hyperon production rate was obtained by exposing an internally-mounted platinum target to the incident 1.5 GeV/ c meson beam. Cross sections and angular distributions are obtained for the reactions: Λ p → Λ p, Λ p → Σ o p and Λ p → Λ p π o . In the elastic channel, no strong evidence is seen near the Σ o p threshold for the presence of a 3 S 1 resonance, which has been reported, although there is some evidence for a small enhancement in this mass region. There is evidence for the presence of P-waves and probably also D-waves above about 800 MeV/ c , but not below this momentum.

Cross sections, differential cross sections, density matrix elements and statistical tensors are given for the reactions π + p → ( ϱ 0 , ω ) Δ ++ at 13.2 GeV/ c . A discussion of the results in terms of particle exchanges, quark model or dipole coupling constraints, and the equal phase hypothesis is presented in some detail for the high statistics ϱ 0 Δ ++ channel.

New pp measurements of Delta sigma L and Delta sigma T between 200 and 520 MeV disagree with earlier Argonne data, and resolve discrepancies with inelastic data, phase-shift analysis and forward dispersion relations.

In an experiment on K--proton interactions in a hydrogen bubble chamber, the cross sections and angular distributions have been studied for elastic and charge-exchange scattering, and charged sigma hyperon production in the momentum range 90-300 MeV/c. Good agreement is found with previous cross sections except for the charge-exchange channel where the new values are 60% larger. The production distributions of the charged sigma hyperons and the polarisation of the Sigma + hyperon clearly indicate that P waves are present down to about 150 MeV/c, much lower than previously reported.

We have studied the photoproduction of Jψ mesons on H, Be, Fe, and Pb targets using real photons at a mean energy of 120 GeV. The pT2 spectra were used to separate the coherent diffractive signals from the incoherent signals. Parametrizing the per-nucleus cross sections in terms of power-law dependences, Aα, we find that αcoh=1.40±0.06±0.04 for the coherent diffractive signals and αincoh=0.94±0.02±0.03 for the incoherent signals.
CROSS-SECTIONS ARE RELATIVE TO THAT FOR INCOHERENT J/PSI PRODUCTION OFF BERYLLIUM.
The C12(28Si,X)11C cross section was measured for 13.4-GeV/nucleon Si28 ions. Beam intensities were determined with a two-element counter telescope, and the C11 activity induced in thin and thick plastic scintillator targets was assayed by internal scintillation counting. The cross section corrected to zero target thickness is 73.5±3.5 mb. This value is compared with similar measurements for relativistic projectiles at 1–2 GeV/nucleon.

Results are presented for the charge-symmetry superratio R, simple ratios r1 and r2, and the differential cross sections of π+ and π− elastic scattering on H3 and He3: R=r1r2, r1=σ(θ)[π+ π+3 ]3/σ(θ)[π− π−3 ]3, and r2=σ(θ)[π− π−3 ]3/σ(θ)[π+ He3 →π+ ]3. The measurements were made at Tπ=180 MeV and θπ(lab)=40°–90°; some data were obtained at Tπ=143 MeV also. At all angles, R>1 and r2>1 indicative of a violation of charge symmetry; however, we also find that r1≃1. Our data are consistent with Fp(3H)≃Fn(3He) and Fn(3H)>Fp(3He), where Fp and Fn are the proton and neutron matter form factors. σ(θ)[π± π±3 ]3 decreases with increasing magnitude of the four-momentum transfer t up to θc.m.≃70°; the t dependence of the F ’s is comparable to that of the electromagnetic form factors. σ(θ)[π− π−33H] has a non-spin-flip dip at θc.m.≃78°.

We present preliminary results on the measurement of a variety of exclusive hadron interactions at center of mass scattering angles of 90°. Data are also presented which show the relative transparency of nuclei to πp and pp elastic scattering in this kinematic range.

The doubly differential cross section for the production of He3 and He4 by 800 MeV protons from C12, Ti, and Pb has been measured at laboratory angles of 6° and 15°. The momentum of the detected helium nuclei varied from 1 to 2 GeV/c, the maximum being well above the incident proton momentum of 1.46 GeV/c. The cross sections were found to increase with increasing target mass and decrease with increasing momentum and scattering angle. In our momentum region, the He3 production cross section is 1.5–10 times larger than He4 depending on the target and the momentum. The data are consistent with the hypothesis that the dominant reaction mechanism is a direct process where the initial nucleon-nucleon scattering is followed by a sequential pickup of neutrons.

Production of Λ, Λ , and K s 0 has been measured for a wide range of event multiplicity in S+Pb reactions at 200 GeV/c per nucleon. The production of Λ is shown to increase with multiplicity faster than expected from a superposition of p+p collisions. The effect is seen for low multiplicity (below 100 negative particles).
