Total and differential cross sections are presented for the reactions K − p → K − p and K − p → K o n at 13 points in the c.m. energy range 1915–2168 MeV. An energy-dependent partial-wave analysis is carried out on these data together with the polarisation measurements of Daum et al. [1] and the total cross section measurements [2] within this energy range. The well known Σ(1915), Σ(2030) and Λ(2100) are observed and their resonance parameters measured. Structure is also found in the D 05 and F 07 waves. An SU(3) analysis of the 5 2 + octet, 7 2 + decuplet and 7 2 − singlet gives generally good agreement between theory and experiment except that the elasticity of the Σ(1915) is experimentally rather larger than predicted.

We present the results on total channel cross-sections obtained in the Saclay 180 l HBC exposed to a separated K− beam at Nimrod. The cross-sections for each channel are given at 13 incident K− momenta between 1.26 and 1.84 GeV/c.

Data are presented from a high statistics bubble chamber experiment to study K − p interactions in the c.m. energy range 1775 to 1957 MeV. For the reactions K − p → K − p, K − p → K 0 n , K − p → Λπ 0 and K − p → Σ ± π ∓ channel cross sections, differential cross sections and, where appropriate, polarisation distributions have been obtained. The channel cross sections for K − p → Σ 0 π 0 are presented. In general the results are in agreement with those previously published although a significant discrepancy has been found in the Σ ± π ∓ cross sections at the lower energies. New measurements of the Σ ± lifetimes have also been obtained ( τ Σ − = 1.49 ± 0.03 × 10 −10 sec, τ Σ + = 0.807 ± 0.013 × 10 −10 sec).

The results presented in this paper were obtained from a 105 000 frame exposure of the FNAL Hybrid Proportional Wire Chamber-30 inch Bubble Chamber System, in a tagged beam of 147 GeV/ c negative particles. Elastic, total and topological cross sections were obtained for both π − p and K − p interactions. Comparisons with other data, taken with various beam particles over large momentum intervals, show good agreement with KNO scaling, and similarity in the scaling behavior of σ n for the different beam particles.

The production of η(550) and ω(780) mesons is studied in π ± p interactions at 16 GeV/ c and K − p interactions at 10 and 16 GeV/ c . Cross sections for exclusive channels are presented, and for the π + p data differential cross sections are given for quasi-inclusive production where the η or ω is required to be accompanied by charged particles only. Close similarities are observed between η, ω and also ϱ 0 (770) production in terms of longitudinal and transverse variables. By a rough estimate, the η, ω and ϱ 0 inclusive yields are found to be in the ratio 0.32 : 0.85 : 1, respectively, for 16 GeV/ c π + p collisions. For non-peripheral production we estimate this same ratio to be 0.34 : 0.9 : 1.

DATA SUPPLIED BY A.A. LEBEDEV.
We present extracted data for the pure I = 1 π 0 Λ (1520) channel from the reaction K − p → K − p π 0 at 11 incident momenta between 0.96 and 1.355 GeV/ c (1775 to 1960 MeV c.m. energy). A partial-wave analysis of this channel has been carried out over a broad c.m. energy range from 1710 to 2170 MeV using data at 27 momenta from this and earlier experiments. The 5 2 − Σ(1775) and built7 2 + Σ(2030) resonances are found to decay strongly to this channel. Amplitudes are also obtained for less dominant and less well-established resonances.
THESE CROSS SECTIONS ARE GIVEN IN TABLE 1B OF W. CAMERON ET AL., NP B146, 327 (1978).

New data are presented for the reaction K − p → Λπ + π − at 11 energies between 1775 and 1957 MeV in the centre-of-mass. New values for the masses and widths of the Σ ± (1385) are given. The differential cross sections and the complete spin density matrices for the reactions K − p → π ± Σ ∓ (1385) were extracted from these data using also the information from the Λ decay. An energy-dependent partial-wave analysis has been carried out over the c.m. range 1775–2170 MeV also using data from an earlier experiment. Comparisons between the observed resonant amplitudes and SU(3) and SU(6) W ⊎ O(3) predictions have been made.

LEGENDRE POLYNOMIAL COEFFICIENTS FOR ANGULAR DISTRIBUTION OF DENSITY MATRIX ELEMENT RHO(MM=33,P=4,XYZ=SH).
We present data for the single-pion production final states K 0 π − p, K − π 0 p and K − π + n from K − p interactions at 11 c.m. energies between 1775 and 1957 MeV. Using the K 0 π − p events the branching ratio (K s 0 → π + π − /K s 0 → all) has been determined to be 0.657 ± 0.011. New values have also been determined for the masses and widths of the K ∗0 (890) and the K ∗− (8990). These give a value of 1.5 ± 1.5 MeV for the electromagnetic mass splitting of the K ∗ . Differential cross sections and the spin-density matrix elements have been extracted for the reactions K − p → K ∗− p and K − p → K ∗0 n . An energy dependent partial-wave analysis of the K ∗ N channel from threshold up to 2170 MeV c.m. energy has been carried out yielding values for 17 resonant amplitudes for the expected Y ∗ 's and a new resonance, the S01(2030).

The production of KS, Λ, Λ¯, and γ in π−p collisions at 147 GeV/c is analyzed. Cross sections, rapidity, Feynman-x, and pT2 distributions are presented and compared to charged-particle production. The energy dependence of multiplicities in π−p and pp collisions is shown. A new scaling form for the correlation of neutral- and charged-particle multiplicities is presented for compilations of πp and pp data.
