π−p→π0n differential cross-sections have been measured in the region of small 4-momentum transfer at 40 GeV/c incident momentum. The experiment performed at the IHEP 70 GeV accelerator makes use of a hodoscope γ-spectrometer. Thet- dependence of the cross-section points to a dominance of the spin-flip amplitude.

Data on the 4π 0 decay mode of mesons have been obtained in a search for glueballs performed at the CERN SPS with the GAMS-4000 multiphoton spectrometer. A new tensor glueball candidate X(1810) appears as a clear peak in the 4π 0 mass spectrum. The 4π 0 decay of G(1590) is also observed. The measured value of BR(G→4 π 0 )/BR(G→ ηη )=0.8±0.3 further supports the glueball assignment of this scalar particle. The rate decay of f(1270) into 4π 0 has been measured: BR(f→4 π 0 ) = (3±1)×10 −3 .

Evidence for a new meson decaying into ηη′ has been found in 38 GeV π − p charge-exchange interactions. The mass and the width of this meson are (1917 ± 15) MeV and (90 −50 +35 ) MeV, respectively. Possible spin and parity assignments are J PC = 0 ++ , 1 −+ or 2 ++ , isospin and G -parity are I G = 0 + . The t -dependence of the differential cross section follows an exponential behaviour exp( bt with a small slope: b = (2±1) (GeV/ c ) −2 .Upper limits on its decay into ππ, ηη and K K exotic interpretation of this meson.

The π − p→ ωω n reaction has studied for the first time at the 70 GeV IHEP accelerator. The six photons from the decay of the two ω mesons were detected in GAMS-2000, a hodoscope multi-photon spectometer. Two resonances decaying into ωω,X (1640) and X(1960), have been observed. Their quantum numbers are J PC =2 ++ , I G =0 + . The reaction is dominated by the one-pion exchange mechanism. The production cross sections σ. BR(X→ ωω ) are 0.65±0.15 μ b and 1.0±0.2 μ b, respectively.
X(1640) IS A JPC - 2++, IG - 0+ MESON WITH MASS 1643+-7 MEV.
X(1960) IS A JPC - 2++, IG - 0+ MESON WITH MASS 1956+-20 MEV.
A non q q ,J PC = 1 −+ , I G =1 − meson has been observed in the study of the exclusive reaction π − p→π 0 ηn at 100 GeV. Its mass is (1406±20) MeV. Its width is (180±30) MeV.

In explosive stellar hydrogen burning, the hot CNO cycles and the rp-process are mainly linked by the reaction sequence 15 O(α, γ) 19 Ne(p,γ) 20 Na. Using intense 19 Ne radioactive beams, both the 19 Ne(p,γ) and the 19 Ne(d,n) reaction have been studied. Upper and lower limits for the 19 Ne(p,γ) reaction rate have been deduced, allowing to conclude that the 15 O(α,γ) reaction is most likely the bottleneck reaction.
Two target were used: polyethylene foil (C=CH2) and static gas cell (C=H2).Two different detection set-ups have been designed: the Solid State Nuclear Tra ck Detector (C=SSNTD) method and the Solenoid and Telescope (C=STAR) method.
Measurements on the production of intermediate momenta negative pions, negative kaons, and antiprotons by protons of 43 GeV, 52 GeV and 70 GeV on aluminium nuclei are reported.

A study of the reactions pp -> pfps(K+K-pi+pi-) and pp -> pfps(K+K-pi+pi-pi0) shows evidence for the K*K* and phi omega channels respectively. The K*K* mass spectrum shows a broad distribution with a maximum near threshold and an angular analysis shows that it is compatible with having JP = 2+. The behaviour of the cross-section as a function of centre of mass energy, and the four momentum transfer dependence, are compatible with what would be expected if the K*K* system was produced via double Pomeron exchange. The dPT behaviour of the phi omega channel is similar to what has been observed for all the undisputed qqbar states. In contrast, the dPT behaviour of the K*K* final state is similar to what has been observed for the phi phi final state and for previously observed glueball candidates.
Corrections for geometrical acceptances, detector efficiencies, losses due to cuts, charged kaon decay and unseen decay modes were applied.
The variable ABS(PT(P=3)-PT(P=4)) is used as a glueball-QUARK QUARKBAR filter (see F.E.Close and A.Krik, PL 397B, 333 (1997)). SIG(C=TOT) stands for the cross section for the whole ABS(PT(P=3)-PT(P=4))interval.
Results are presented from an experiment in which high-energy deuterons, produced by proton-proton interactions at 21.1 GeV/ c incident momentum, were detected over a range of angles from 12.5 mrad to 60 mrad in the laboratory system. From the momentum spectra of the deuterons, the final states D + π + and D + ϱ + have been identified. The angular distribution for these reactions are presented and compared with previous data at lower energies.
