Measurements of the polarization parameters and angular distributions are reported for π±p elastic scattering at 100 GeV/c and for pp elastic scattering at 100- and 300-GeV/c incident momentum. The π±p data cover the kinematic range 0.18≤−t≤1.10 GeV2 and are in agreement with current Regge-model predictions. The pp data cover the kinematic range 0.15≤−t≤1.10 GeV2 and 0.15≤−t≤2.00 GeV2 at 100 and 300 GeV/c, respectively, and are found to be consistent with absorption-model predictions.

We have measured the e + e − → ø reaction by its K + K − decay mode. Using our previous results on K O K O and the 3π decay mode of the ø mesons, we compute Γ ø → e + e − and then compare the whole Orsay results to theoretical predictions.

The polarized target asymmetry in the reaction γ p → π 0 p has been measured at c.m. angles of 30°, 80°, 105° and 120° for incident photon energies below 1 GeV. Two decay photons from π 0 were detected in coincidence at 30°, and at the other angles recoil protons and single photons from π 0 were detected. The results are compared with recent phenomenological analyses.

The polarized target asymmetry for the process γ p → π + n has been measured for incident photon energies below 1.02 GeV over a range of c.m. angles from 40° to 160°. π + mesons from a polarized butanol target were detected by a magnetic spectrometer. The results are compared with predictions given by existing analyses. A tentative interpretation of the data is performed, and a larger contribution of S-wave resonances is suggested. The photocouplings of dominant resonances were hardly changed by the inclusion of new data and they seem to be almost uniquely determined.

The Λ polarization in the reaction γp → K + Λ has been measured using the decay Λ → pπ − as an analyzer. It is found to be large and negative in the momentum transer range 0.2 ⩽ | t | ⩽ 1.0 (GeV/ c ) 2 .

Polarization of Λ hyperons and differential cross sections for the reaction γ+p→K++Λ were measured at the K+-meson center-of-mass angles around 45°, 70°, and 90° for the incident photon energies of 1054, 1100, and 1160 MeV. The K+ mesons were detected with a magnetic spectrometer and a velocity-selection system based on the energy loss and the time of flight. The polarization of Λ was determined by measuring the up-down asymmetry of protons in the decay Λ→pπ− with respect to the production plane. The results show a dominant sinθK* dependence of the polarization at the region of the third resonance and are consistent with a contribution of the P11 resonance with a mass of about 1700 MeV.

New measurements on the reactionsγp→K + Λ and γp→K + Σ o have been performed at the DESY synchrotron at c.m. angles around 90° and photon lab. energies from 1.19 to 1.68 GeV. The produced K + mesons were analyzed by a magnet spectrometer, two thresholdCˇerenkov counters and a time-of-flight measurement. The obtained differential cross-section data show a smooth energy behaviour for the K + Λ production whereas for theK + Σ o production the data trace out a bump at a c.m. energy W ≈ 1.9GeV.

The differential cross section has been measured for the reaction γ+p→K+ + Λ atk=1.3 GeV andCM angles between 6 ° and 90 ° and for the reaction γ+p→K+ + ∑0 atk=1.45 GeV andCM angles between 10 ° and 85 °. In addition 10 differential cross sections of the two reactions in the energy region betweenk=1.327 and 1.416 GeV and angles between θcm=11.2 ° and 62 ° have been obtained. The results are compared with Regge-cut-model fits by Meyer zu Hörste and Pfeil1 taking into account all availableK+ photoproduction data.

A fourth state in the upsilon energy region has been seen in e+e− collisions at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring. A resonance is observed with a mass 1112±5 MeV above the lowest upsilon state. The 9.6-MeV rms width is greater than the 4.6-MeV energy resolution of the e+e− beams. The observed characteristics of the new state make it a likely candidate for the 4S3 state of the bb¯ system, lying above the threshold for the production of B mesons.

With use of the LENA detector at the DORIS e+e− storage ring, the hadronic cross section and the μ-pair decay branching ratio of the ϒ(9.46) resonance have been measured. Γee=1.23±0.10 (±0.14) keV, Bμμ=[3.5±1.4 (±0.4)]%, and Γtot=35−10+25 ({+9}{−7}) keV have been obtained. The first set of errors gives the statistical uncertainty. The numbers in parentheses represent systematic errors arising from the uncertainty in the total hadronic cross section.
