The cross section e + e − → π + π − π o has been measured in the φ energy region and at three other energies (915, 990, 1076 MeV) chosen outside the ω and φ resonances. In the same experiment the energy position and the width of the φ resonance have been determined from the φ →K S o K L o channel. It is found that the magnitude and energy dependence of the experimental cross section are well described by coherent production of ω and φ in the whole energy range 770 to 1076 MeV. Our data clearly show an interference effect which corresponds to an opposite sign between the two products g γω g ω →3 π and g γφ g φ →3 π of the coupling constants.
EXPERIMENTAL CROSS SECTIONS - RADIATIVE CORRECTIONS CAN BE SIGNIFICANT.
The radiative decay models of the φ-meson have been studied: e + e − → φ → ηγ →3 γ ; e + e − → φ → π o γ →3 γ . Cross sections σ φ → ηγ →3 γ and σ φ → π o γ →3 γ have been measured at five energies in the φ-meson energy region and clearly show the φ-resonance in the ηγ → 3 γ mode as well as in the π o γ → 3 γ mode. From a Breit-Wigner fit to the experimental data the values of the branching ratios are deduced: B φ → ηγ = (1.5 ± 0.4) × 10 −2 ; B φ → π o γ = (1.4 ± 0.5) × 10 −3 .
REMOVING RADIATIVE CORRECTIONS, THE PHI PEAK CROSS SECTIONS ARE 66 NB +- 25 PCT <ETA GAMMA> AND 6.5 NB +- 30 PCT <PI0 GAMMA>.

The results are presented of two partial-wave analyses of the (3π) − system in 30 000 events of the reaction π − p → π − π − π + p at 11.2 GeV/ c . Both techniques incorporate the assumptions of the isobar model and are (a) the University of Illinois program which fits in terms of the (3π) density matrix elements and (b) an amplitude parametrisaton including possible effects of both spin non-flip and spin flip at the baryon vertex. The results obtained with these independent programs are found to be very close.

We present a study of the transverse momentum spectrum of π 0 's produced at c.m. angles θ = 90° and 53° in pp collisions at √ s = 23.6, 30.8, 45.1, 53.2, and 62.9 GeV. The experiment was performed with a lead-glass detector. The data can be described with the usual parametrization p T −n ƒ;(x T , θ) , with n = 7.2 ± 0.2. Comparison between the 90° and 53° data further indicates no appreciable dependence on θ , at least for x T < 0.3. Two-particle inclusive cross sections for π 0 's produced alongside are also presented. They are observed to have a dependence upon the transverse momentum of the dipion similar to that of single-particle cross sections and with the same value of n . Two-photon decays of η mesons are observed between 3 and 4 GeV/ c transverse momentum with a production cross section half of that of π 0 .

Results are given on the inclusive production of charged pions, kaons, and nucleons, in proton-proton collisions at c.m. energies from √ s = 23 to 63 GeV at large angles and for the transverse momentum range 0.1 < p T < 4.8 GeV/ c . The dependence of the production spectra on the collision energy √ s , the transverse momentum p T , and the longitudinal rapidity is discussed.

We have searched for possible narrow resonances produced in e + e − annihilation at Adone, in the mass regions 1910–2545 MeV and 2970–3090 MeV. No evidence has been found for narrow resonances, within the sensitivity of the present work: we deduce an upper limit on the energy integrated resonant cross section of about 10% of the J/ψ(3100) corresponding value.

The K L o p → K S o p differential and total cross-section and the forward scattering amplitude phase φ have been measured in the 1.5 to 2.3 GeV centre of mass energy range. The data is compared with predictions based on recent K ± N phase shift solutions. Best agreement is found for K + N solutions which do not warrant an I=0 P 1 2 exotic Z ∗ o (1800) baryon.

A comparison is made of the low-mass three-meson systems (πππ), (Kππ), (π K K ) and ( K K K ) diffractively produced in the reaction meson + proton → three mesons + proton. Several striking similarities and a few important differences are observed: (i) the reactions are consistent with the assumption that the three mesons decay entirely into a 0 − meson and a 0 + , 1 − or 2 + resonance; (ii) the three-meson mass spectra have a peak ≈ 250 MeV above the effective threshold M eff of the dominant decay mode and then fall off approximately as (mass) −3 ;(iii) the average spin 〈 J 〉 = 0.55 + 1.1 Q eff , where Q eff = M - M eff ; (iv) the average orbital angular momentum 〈 l 〉 increases according to 〈 l 〉 = 0.75 Q eff ; (v) the three-meson states are produced dominantly in unnatural spin-parity states and no evidence for their being resonant is found; (vi) the only natural spin-parity states found are the well-established 2 + resonances A 2 and K ∗ (1420); they have similar properties to the non-resonant unnatural parity states except for a dip at t = 0 in the dσ/d t distributions; (vii) both the unnatural and natural spin-parity states are produced mostly by an exchange of natural parity; (viii) there is evidence for two types of production mechanism with different polarization properties, one approximately conserving helicity in the t -channel and the other in the s -channel.
