Results are given for the analysing power of the p ̄ p→ n ̄ n charge-exchange reaction at four incident beam momenta. The measurement is part of an experimental programme to study the spin structure of this reaction at LEAR. The analyzing power shows strong angular and energy dependence, which at present is not reproduced by the existing meson-exchange potential models.

A measurement of Δσ L (np), the difference between neutron-proton total cross sections in pure longitudinal spin states, is described. Data were taken for five energies between 500 and 800 MeV, with statistical errors of ≈ 1.5 mb and an estimated normalization error of 6%. The data, combined with other results, show some evidence for an elastic I =0 spin-singlet resonance with mass ∼ 2213 MeV and width ∼ 74 MeV, or a coupled-triplet resonance with similar mass and width.
SIG(C=PARALLEL)-SIG(C=ANTIPARALLEL) means the difference in the total crosssection with initial parallel and antiparallel longitudinal spin states. The I0 means I=0, these values were found using interpolated Delta(sigma(pp)) data.
A proton-proton bremsstrahlung experiment has been carried out at TRIUMF using a 280-MeV polarized proton beam impinging on a liquid-hydrogen target. All three outgoing particles were detected: the higher-energy proton in a magnetic spectrometer, the lower-energy proton with plastic scintillators, and the photon in lead-glass Cherenkov detectors. The experiment shows the first unambiguous evidence for off-shell effects in the free nucleon-nucleon interaction, in that the analyzing powers disagree strongly with the predictions of the soft-photon approximation (which incorporates only on-shell information) but are consistent with the results of calculations using the Bonn and Paris potentials.

In order to improve existing I=0 phase shift solutions, the spin correlation parameter ANN and the analyzing powers A0N and AN0 have been measured in n-p elastic scattering over an angular range of 50°–150° (c.m.) at three neutron energies (220, 325, and 425 MeV) to an absolute accuracy of ±0.03. The data have a profound effect on various phase parameters, particularly the P11, D23, and ε1 phase parameters which in some cases change by almost a degree. With the exception of the highest energy, the data support the predictions of the latest version of the Bonn potential. Also, the analyzing power data (A0N and AN0) measured at 477 MeV in a different experiment over a limited angular range [60°–80° (c.m.)] are reported here.

We have measured the asymmetry of elastic pp scattering at small scattering angles (30–100 mrad) in the Coulomb-nuclear interference region, using the polarized proton beam of Saturne II, a segmented scintillator active target, and two telescopes of multiwire proportional chambers. Results are given at four energies — 940, 1000, 1320 and 2440 MeV-and are compared with phase-shift calculations.

The polarization parameters for the π + +p→K + +∑ + reaction have been measured at 13 laboratory momenta between 1490 and 2069 MeV/ c in the angular range of −0.1⩽ cos θ K ∗ ⩽0.7 with higher statistics than previous experiments. In general, the present results agree well with the results at the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory. It is found, however, that there exist small but systematic differences which can be attributed to certain coefficients in Legendre expansions. The physical significance of these differences is discussed.
ALPHA0 is the decay asymmetry parameter (=0.980 +- 0.015 PDG tables).

The polarization in pion-nucleon charge exchange was measured at 6 GeV/c incident momentum for 0.1 (GeV/c)2 < |t| < 1.6 (GeV/c)2. Using the channel π+ n ↑ → π0p allowed precise measurement of the recoil proton for good rejection of inelastic events. The results are compared with previous experiments using channel π−p ↑ with or without detection of the recoil neutron.

Forward angular distributions of the analysing power for the pp→d π + reaction have been measured at six energies T p =1.2, 1.4, 1.6, 1.8, 2.0, 2.3 GeV. A strong energy dependence is observed for A y 0 ( t =0) and A y 0 ( θ CM π =90°). The data are compared with the backward angular distributions previously published and suggest the existence of a resonant state in the pp system at the approximate energy of 2.7 GeV.

Polarization parameters for the π − p → π 0 n charge exchange scattering have been measured at eight beam momenta between 1965 and 4220 MeV/ c using two different experimental set-ups. The angular range covered is −0.90 < cos θ π ∗ < 0.95 at the five momenta of 1965, 2168, 2360, 2566 and 2960 MeV/ c , where θ π ∗ is the emission angle of the π 0 meson in the c.m.s.. For three momenta of 2770, 3490 and 4220 MeV/ c , the measurements cover the forward angles of 0.1 < cos θ π ∗ < 1.0 . The results are compared with the predictions of π N partial wave analyses.

The analysis of exclusive neutral strange particle production in the reactions π − p → K° Λ + K° Σ ° and p p → Λ Λ + Λ Σ° + c.c. at 3.15, 4.95, 7.9 and 12 GeV/ c yielded the differential cross section distributions up to about 90° c.m.s. scattering angle and the Λ-particle polarization at large transverse momentum. Applying a fit to d σ /d t ∞ s − n resulted in n = 8.6 ± 0.9 for the K° Λ + K° Σ° final state which is compatible with the quark counting rule n = 8 for meson-baryon reactions. The average Λ polarization around t = −1.6 (GeV/ c ) 2 was P Λ = 0.79 ± 0.17 at 3.15 GeV/ c beam energy.
