We have studied high-energy proton scattering on Be, C, Cu and Pb targets using a single-arm spectrometer. The projectile momenta were 19 and 24 GeV/ c , the square of the four-momentum transfer varied from t = 0.1 to t = 4.4 GeV 2 . We have recorded momentum distributions of scattered protons in the high-momentum range. An application of multiple-scattering theory yielded agreement of calculation and experimental results to within a ± 30% uncertainty of the former.

The reaction π − p → ηφ has been studied at 1.8 GeV/ c incident pion momentum using the Bologna-CERN NBC set-up, in order to investigate the electromagnetic decay mode φ → ηγ . We observed (27 ± 6) events, yielding a branching ratio Γ(φ → ηγ) Γ(φ → total ) = (7.3 ± 1.9)% . The theoretical implications of this result are discussed.

ASSUMING THE TOTAL PHI CROSS SECTION IS 35 +- 5 MUB, THIS YIELDS THE BRANCHING RATIO OF (7.3 +- 1.9) PCT FOR PHI --> ETA GAMMA.
