NORMALIZED TO PI- P ELASTIC FORWARD DIFFERENTIAL CROSS SECTION OF 31.2 +- 1.9 MB/GEV**2 (PLUS 6 PCT SYSTEMATIC ERROR) OF K. J. FOLEY ET AL., PRL 11, 425 (1963).

A study of the reaction π + p → p π + π o at 16 GeV/ c incident momentum has been made using the prism plot analysis to reject background events arising from elastic and multineutral contaminations and to separate different reaction channels ( ϱ + p, g + p, Δ + π + , Δ ++ π o , π + (p π o ) DD ). Cross sections, invariant mass distributions and production and decay angular distributions are presented. For the channel corresponding to proton diffraction dissociation strong violation of both s - and t -channel helicity conservation is found for low values of the (p π o ) mass. We demonstrate that the prism plot method provides a better separation of background events than conventional methods using kinematic cuts.

We present data on the inclusive neutron spectra produced in the forward direction by the interactions of 23.85 GeV/ c protons in a copper target. The results are in good agreement with the predictions of the triple-Regge model.

An accurate measurement of d σ d Ω (π − p → η n ) at 1531 MeV total energy (expanded) up to l = 4 Legendre polynomials) requires reconsideration of previous angular distribution fits which were expanded only up to l = 2 and of subsequent partial-wave analysis. An energy-dependent partial-wave analysis has been performed here for p η ∗ up to 450 MeV/ c . In addition to the well-known S 11 (1520 MeV) resonance, either the P 11 (1532 MeV) or the P 13 (1530 MeV) resonance is found to be strongly coupled to the η-n channel. In both cases, the P 11 (1729 MeV) resonance is needed as is the weakly coupled D 13 (1525 MeV) resonance. The decay states in the ηn channelare compared to the SU(3) and SU(6) W predictions.

The reaction π−p→X−p, X−→ηπ−, η→γγ has been studied in an optical spark-chamber experiment at the Argonne ZGS (Zero Gradient Synchrotron) at a beam momentum of 6.0 GeV/c and with 0.27≤|t|≤0.42 (GeV/c)2. The ηπ mass spectrum contains about 1400 events in the mass range 0.80

THIS FIT ASSUMES ALL OTHER DENSITY MATRIX ELEMENTS (RHO(2M) AND RE(RHO(10))) ARE ZERO SINCE THEY ARE QUITE CONSISTENT WITH ZERO IN A FULL FIT. QUOTED ERRORS INCLUDE SYSTEMATIC ERRORS, WHILE STATISTICAL FITTING ERRORS ARE SHOWN SEPARATELY.
The P parameter for π + p scattering at 236.3 MeV has been measured between 50° and 146° c.m. with very low background using a butanol polarized proton target. The resulting D phases are in fair agreement with dispersion relation values.

Single and joint decay angular distributions in the reaction p p → Δ ++ Δ ++ at 9.13 GeV/ c are discussed in the framework of single and double statistical tensors. The t dependence of 12 double statistical tensors is presented. Cross sections for p p → p p π + π − and p p → Δ ++ Δ ++ are determined to be 2.60 ± 0.10 and 0.90 ± 0.10 mb respectively. The results obtained are compared with other experiments mainly at 5.7 and 12 GeV/ c .

FROM FITTING DECAY ANGULAR DISTRIBUTIONS OF BOTH ISOBARS ADDED.
Results are presented for the reactions (1) π+n→pπ+π−, (2) π+n→pπ+π−π0, at an incident pion beam momentum of 11.7 GeV/c. Both reactions show considerable resonance production. Reaction (1) is dominated by ρ0 and f0 production and there is evidence for the variation of the ρ00 width with momentum transfer. Decay angular distributions are presented for the dipion system observed in reaction (1). Reaction (2) shows the production of both dipion and tripion resonances and there is evidence for the associated production of\(\mathcal{N}\)-resonances with the dipion resonances.

RHO0 MASS REGION OF DIPION SYSTEM. NUMERICAL VALUES TAKEN FROM TABLE 6.1 OF THE THESIS BY D. KEMP (DURHAM 1974).
We have analysed the reaction π + p → pπ + π + π − at 16 GeV/c by means of the prism plot analysis (PPA) as proposed by Pless et al. We have separated ten reaction channels contributing to the final state pπ + π + π − and present the results in terms of partial and differential cross sections, invariant mass and decay angular distributions. We show that the PPA is a self-controlling method which is demonstrated by the emergence of a broad (3π) + enhancement around 1800 MeV decaying into ρ 0 π + .
