We have performed absolute measurements of the differential cross section for elastic e−p scattering in the range of momentum transfer from Q2=2.9 to 31.3 (GeV/c)2. Combined statistical and systematic uncertainties in the cross-section measurements ranged from 3% at low Q2 to 19% at high Q2. These data have been used to extract the proton magnetic form factor GMp(Q2). The results show a smooth decrease of Q4GMp with momentum transfer above Q2=10 (GeV/c)2. These results are compared with recent predictions of perturbative QCD.

We measured the elastic and inelastic scattering of electrons on deuterium at 180° for four incident energies (70, 140, 210 and 280 MeV). The data were analysed with a technique allowing an accurate comparison between experiment and theory. We observed a good agreement for the inelastic data with the expected cross section, using the presently available models and nucleon form factors. The experimental elastic cross section is systematically larger than the predicted cross sections.

We report on an experiment where the different contributions from the transverse and longitudinal polarization of the virtual photon are measured separately for the reaction e − p→e − π + n. The data taken above the resonance region at small ∣ t ∣ values in the q 2 range of ∣ q 2 ∣ < 0.5 GeV 2 show a clear dominance of the longitudinal part of the cross section and are well described by a generalized Born-term model. Using this model the electromagnetic form factor of the pion is determined. At q 2 = −0.35 GeV 2 one gets F π = 0.598 ± 0.021.

AVERAGED OVER RESTRICTED PHI RANGE. THIS IS MAINLY (D(SIG(NAME=U))/DT + EPS*D(SIG(NAME=L))/DT) SINCE COMPONENTS P AND I ARE EXPECTED TO REMAIN SMALL FOR LARGER -T.

We have studied photoproduction using a 1 m streamer chamber at DESY and a tagged photon beam with an energy range of 1.6 GeV < E γ < 6.3 GeV. We analysed approximately 30 000 events and report topological, channel and resonance production cross sections for a large number of reactions with three and five outgoing charged particles.

A peak is reported in the ηπ + π − system, produced in the reaction γ p→ ηπ + π − p, at a mass of 1.28 ± 0.01 GeV with a width of 0.08 ± 0.02 GeV. Possible spin-parity assignments for the peak are shown to be J π = 1 − , J π = 1 + or J π = 2 + and interpretations of these assignments are discussed.

Differential cross sections and polarizations are presented for the reactions K − p → Λπ 0 , Λη , Λη ′ at 8.25 GeV/ c incident K − momentum. The data, which come from a high statistics experiment in the CERN 2 m bubble chamber, are compared with previous experimental results on the same reactions and with current theoretical ideas.

Final states π − Σ + , π + Σ − , π o Λ and ηΛ were studied for K − p reactions at 3.95 GeV/ c . Cross sections, angular distributions and polarizations are presented. Data for π − Σ + and π o Λ production are compared to the line-reversed πp reactions at the same beam momentum. Baryon-exchange peaks are presented for the Σ + π − , Σ − π + and Λπ o final states.

We present results on elastic electron-deuteron experiments performed at Orsay. The range of momentum transfers is 0.6 to 2 F−2. Two kinds of measurements have been taken detecting the scattered electron: one with a solid CD2 target, the other with a liquid target. The data are analyzed with the nonrelativistic theory, which gives slightly positive neutron form factors and a magnetic neutron form factor nearly equal to the magnetic proton form factor.

Cross sections for π0 photoproduction from hydrogen in the backward direction have been measured for photon energies of 6, 8, 12, and 18 GeV. The range of momentum transfer covered in these measurements is −1 (GeVc)2<u<0(GeVc)2, dσdu is found to have a backward peak and decreases with energy as s−3.0±0.2. Photoproduction of η0 and ρ0 mesons has also been observed.

New data for the reaction π+p→η0Δ++ are presented at 11 momenta between 1.28 and 2.67 GeV/c. Existing data at higher momenta are included in an analysis of the reaction in terms of A2 exchange. An effective trajectory parametrization of the data above 2 GeV/c is shown to describe adequately those data, although it yields an effective trajectory steeper than expected from ρ−A2 exchange degeneracy. An existing Regge-pole model is refitted to the data above 2 GeV/c with generally satisfactory results. Both the effective trajectory parametrization and the Regge model are extrapolated to the lower-momenta data and shown to give remarkably good agreement with the data. Evidence is presented against a dominant contribution to the lower-momenta data from s-channel resonances.
