Total and annihilation n¯p cross sections from 100 to 500 MeV/c are reported, the first such measurements with good statistics in this momentum range. These cross sections are well represented by A+B/p, where p is the incident antineutron momentum, and are in agreement with previous n¯p and p¯n measurements. A comparison of these cross sections with phenomenological potential model calculations is good overall. However, the microscopic quark model gives unsatisfactory predictions. The agreement between previous p¯p annihilation cross sections and n¯p cross sections above 300 MeV/c is excellent. The total n¯p cross section is lower than the total p¯p cross section in this momentum range. Both of these types of behavior are predicted by potential models. The anticipated availability of future p¯p data below 300 MeV/c should indicate whether these trends continue at lower momenta.

Results are presented from reactions of 60 A GeV and 200 A GeV 16 O projectiles with C, Cu, Ag, and Au nuclei. Energy spectra measured at zero degrees and transverse energy distributions in the pseudorapidity range from 2.4 to 5.5 are shown. The average transverse energy per participant is found to be nearly independent of target mass. Estimates of nuclear stopping and of attained energy densities are made.

The process γγ→π+π−π+π− has been investigated in reactions of the typee+e−→e+e−π+π−π+π− in the single tag mode. The range of the four momentum squared of one of the virtual photons was 0.28 GeV2/c2≦Q2≦3.6 GeV2/c2, the average being 〈Q2〉=0.92 GeV2/c2; the other photon was quasi real. The reaction is mainly described by the channels γγ→ρ0ρ0 and γγ→4π (phase space), occuring with about equal probability. TheQ2-dependence of the cross section is in agreement with the ρ form factor.

Data read from graph.. Additional overall systematic error 25%.. The Q**2 approx 0 datum is deduced from the earlier TASSO paper, Brandelik et al, Phys. Lett. 97B(1980)448, (<a href=http://durpdg.dur.ac.uk/scripts/reacsearch.csh/TESTREAC/red+1151> RED = 1151 </a>) on rho0 rho0 production.
The weak coupling constants of the electron, gVe and gAe, are determined from measurements of the total and differential cross sections for the reaction νμe→νμe. The data also place limits of interest on the magnitudes of a neutrino charge radius and a possible neutrino magnetic dipole moment.

Within the framework of the quark-parton model, the quark and anti-quark structure functions of the proton have been measured by fitting them to the distributions of the events in the Bjorkeny variable. The data used form the largest sample of neutrino and antineutrino interactions on a pure hydrogen target available, and come from exposures of BEBC to the CERN wide band neutrino and antineutrino beams. It is found that the ratiodv/uv of valence quark distributions falls with increasing Bjorkenx. In the context of the quark-parton model the results constrain the isospin composition of the accompanying diquark system. Models involving scattering from diquarks are in disagreement with the data.

Measurements ofKs0, Λ and\(\bar \Lambda \) production in π− nucleus (C, Cu, Pb) interactions are presented. The experiment was carried out with the streamer chamber spectrometer RISK using a π− beam of ∼40 GeV/c and a trigger requiring a secondary charged particle with transverse momentum above 1.1 GeV/c. Production cross sections, relative production rates and distributions of Feynmanx and transverse momentum squared as well as correlations between theV0 and the trigger particle are presented. The results are compared and found to be in agreement withKs0, Λ and\(\bar \Lambda \) data from untriggered π−p and π−C interactions, except for the relative production rate of antilambdas which is about to times larger in high-pt collisions. Our results can be well interpreted within the dual topological unitarization model.

The differential cross sections of p¯p elastic scattering have been measured at incident beam momenta of 390, 490, 590, 690, and 780 MeV/c. The results are compared with the predictions of various N¯N potential models. None of these models completely explains the present results.

Cross sections for the inclusive processes p+A→KS0+X and p+A→Λ0+X (A=Be, Cu, and W) have been measured for incident protons at 12 GeV. Data are obtained at five laboratory production angles of 3.5°, 5.0°, 6.5°, 8.0°, and 9.5°, covering the kinematic range 0.3≤xF≤0.8 and 0.4≤pT≤1.3 GeV/c for KS0’s and 0.2≤xF≤0.9 and 0.4≤pT≤1.7 GeV/c for Λ0’s. The results are discussed in terms of the pT dependence, the xF dependence, the A dependence, the cross-section ratio KS0/Λ0, and triple-Regge behavior. The A dependence of KS0 and Λ0 spectra is analyzed in the constituent-quark model. The average pT2’s of quarks and diquarks involved in the KS0 and Λ0 production processes are discussed.

Using a 320 GeV c π − beam incident on three different target materials Al, Fe, and U, the A -dependence of charm production is studied by measuring the yield of prompt single muons. Parametrizing the charm cross section as σ cc ( π − A) = σ 0 Aα the measured α values are α ( μ + ) = 0.76 ± 0.08 and α ( μ − ) = 0.83 ± 0.06.
