The inclusive production cross sections of pions, kaons, protons, and antiprotons in p p and pp interactions at √ s =53 GeV are compared in the kinematic range | y | < 0.8 and p T < 1.5 GeV/ c . We observe differences in the K + /K − and p /p ratios for the two data samples. Although the bulk of the particles are produced with the same momentum and rapidity distributions in p p and pp collisions, we observe difference in these distributions for produced protons and antiprotons.

Absolute inclusive cross sections for\(\bar pp\) interactions at 7.3 GeV/c are given. The data cover prong cross sections,V0, γ production and inclusive charged particle (p/π) production. Separation has been made into annihilation and non-annihilation components. Inclusive π+, π− production in the processes of\(\bar pp\) annihilation and non-annihilation are compared with simple quark models.

ANNIHILATION AND NON-ANNIHILATION TOPOLOGICAL CROSS SECTIONS.
Transverse momentum distributions of pions, kaons and protons have been measured around 90° in the UA2 detector at the SPS p p collider, at a CM energy of 540 GeV. All the cross sections have increased by more than a factor of 2 over those measured at ISR energies and exhibit a flatter behaviour with respect to transverse momentum.

We have studied the inclusive production of the hadrons π ± , K ± , p, p , Λ, Λ , ρ and ⋉ in the central region at the ISR s = 53 GeV , in both pp and p p collisions. Differences are observed only for K ± , p, and p production. We then study also correlations between low- p T pp and p p pairs in the two types of collisions, separating the contribution from baryon pair production and from the incident particles (stopping protons). We observe a positive correlation between two stopping protons; between the production of two pairs, and between a stopping proton and a pair production, there are negative correlations.

Experiment E735 searched for evidence of the transition to quark-gluon plasma in p p collisions at √ s = 1.8 TeV. Using data from a high statistics run in 1988–1989, results are presented on multiplicity distributions, hyperon and phi production, and Bose-Einstein correlations. Some data were also taken at lower collision energies and results will be compared to previous experiments.

We report measurements of the inclusive differential cross section for the single-diffractive reactions: p + pbar --> p + X and p + pbar --> X + pbar at sqrt(s) = 630 GeV, in the momentum transfer range, 0.8 < -t < 2.0 GeV^2 and final state Feynman-x > 0.90. Based on the assumption of factorization, several new features of the Pomeron Flux Factor are determined from simultaneous fits to our UA8 data and lower energy data from the CHLM collaboration at the CERN-Intersecting Storage Rings. Prominent among these is that the effective Pomeron Regge trajectory requires a term quadratic in t, with coefficient, a'' = 0.079 +- 0.012 GeV^{-4}. We also show that the data require a Pomeron-proton cross section that first decreases with increasing diffractive mass (corresponding to the PPR term in the triple-Regge expansion) and then increases at larger mass (the PPP term), similar to real particle total cross sections. We measure the product, (K x sigma0) = 0.72 +- 0.10 mb/GeV^2, where K is the normalization constant of the Pomeron Flux Factor in the proton and sigma0 is the scale constant in the Pomeron-proton total cross section. Finally, we report the occurence of ``beam jets'' in the Pomeron direction in the rest frame of the diffractive system.
