The interactions of 604 MeV π− mesons in a hydrogen bubble chamber have been systematically analyzed. In 33 000 pictures a total of 8052 usable events were found, corresponding to cross sections of 18.9±1.3 mb for σ(elastic), 4.98±0.54 mb for σ(π−pπ0), 7.87±0.91 mb for σ(π−nπ+), 14.0±1.0 mb for σ(neutrals), with σ(two−pionproduction)<0.2 mb, for a total cross section of 45.9±1.9 mb at this energy. The angular distribution for elastic scattering was fitted with a fifth-order polynomial in cosθ which gave a value of dσdΩ(0°) consistent with dispersion theory. The pion-pion effective-mass distributions for both single-pion-production channels showed pronounced peaking at high mass values, strongly inconsistent with simple isobar-production kinematics. Simple one-pion exchange does not appear to play a significant role.

Single-pion production has been studied in the reactions π−p→π−π+n and π−p→π−π0p at 790, 830, and 870 MeV. A total of 4193 events in these two channels, divided approximately equally between the three energies, have been identified. The most interesting feature of the data is the tendency for events to concentrate at high values of mππ and low values of four-momentum transfer. These effects are discussed in terms of conventional isobar models and a model involving two-pion exchange. Partial cross sections for the reactions studied are reported for each energy.

A high-mass Δ resonance is observed in several final states from π + p interactions at 10.3 GeV/ c . We obtain fitted mass and width values for this structure of 1871 ± 22 MeV and 205 ± 43 MeV, respectively. The branching ratios for decays to π + p, p π + π 0 , n π + π + and Σ + K + are found to be 0.48 ± 0.15, 0.26 ± 0.07, 0.24 ± 0.07 and 0.03 ± 0.01, respectively. The Δϱ, Δω differential cross sections and the ϱ 0 density matrix elements are examined.

The major production channels of four-prong final states resulting from π+p interactions at a center-of-mass energy of 4.5 GeV are studied. In addition to total production cross sections, comprehensive listings of partial and resonance production cross sections are also given for each final state of interest. All final states, including nπ+π+π+π−, are found to exhibit copious resonance production.

Cross sections, differential cross sections, single and joint spin-density matrix elements are given for the reactions π+p→(ρ0, ω)Δ++ at 10.3 GeV/c. Correlations between the vector-meson and the Δ++ decay angular distributions are observed. A discussion of the results in terms of particle exchange, SU(3) symmetry, quark additivity, and the equal-phase hypothesis is presented. The amplitudes for the process π+p→ρ0Δ++ are extracted by a model-dependent analysis and compared with current theoretical predictions.

We present a study of the reactions p p → p p π 0 , p p → p n π + , and p p → n p π − at 8.8 GeV/ c . Cross sections for the reactions are given, and the main features of the data are shown. The data are compared with the predictions of the Deck model, and evidence is presented for the presence of baryon exchange in the Deck amplitude.

We give cross sections for annihilation and non-annihilation reactions in p p interactions at 8.8 GeV. The non-annihilation data are compared with pp data from the same experiment. We compare data on resonance production and on the impact parameter structure of the final states in p p annihilation and non-annihilation and pp interactions. We investigate the charge structure of the 2 π + 2 π − π 0 final state, and find it consistent with a simple quark model.

Data are presented for the reaction ep → ep π 0 at a nominal momentum transfer squared of 1.0 (GeV/ c ) 2 . The data were obtained using an extracted electron beam from NINA and two magnetic spectrometers for coincidence detection of the electron and proton. Differential cross sections have been measured for isobar masses in the range 1.19–1.73 GeV/ c 2 .

Ξ− interactions in hydrogen and deuterium are studied close to the forward direction using the CERN charged hyperon beam. The inclusive production of ∑*−(1385),Ξ−,Ξ*0(1530),Ξ*−(1700),Ξ*−(1830), and Ω− is observed, as well as an enhancement in theΞ−π+ channel at 1940 MeV/c2. The momentum distributions and the production cross sections are measured for ∑*−(1385),Ξ−,Ξ*0(1530), and Ω−.
