The π−p elastic scattering differential cross section has been obtained at 18 incident momenta from 1.71 to 5.53 GeV/c. The measurements were taken over a limited range of squared four-momentum transfer t near the forward direction. The statistical accuracy and resolution of these data are comparable to, or better than, existing data. The parameter b in the expression dσdt=Aebt has been determined at each of our incident momenta, and a large (∼25%) enhancement in b as a function of momentum is observed at a c.m. energy of ∼2290 MeV. The relation of this bump in b with the well-established bump in the total π−p cross section at ∼2200 MeV is discussed.

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.

Differential cross sections for the elastic scattering of negative pions from hydrogen have been measured over a limited range of squared four-momentum transfer (t) in the vicinity of t≃−3 (GeV/c)2 for incident pion momenta of 2.51, 2.76, and 3.01 GeV/c. These measurements confirm the existence of a minimum in the differential cross section in this region of incident momentum and scattering angle. The minimum occurs at a smaller value of t [t≃−2.6 (GeV/c)2] than has been observed at higher momenta.

The π0 photoproduction cross section has been measured at 180° for photon energies from 220 to 380 MeV, in steps of 20 MeV, by detecting the recoil proton at 0°. The statistical accuracy of the measurements varies between 3 and 7%, depending on the energy. Absolute cross sections have been deduced from a comparison of the measurements with electron-proton scattering. The experimental data are compared with theoretical results calculated from fixed-momentum-transfer dispersion relations. Special attention is paid to the prediction of the multipoles at the first resonance, namely, E1+32, M1+32, and E0+π0 to obtain agreement with experiment.

Cross sections for the photoproduction of neutral pions have been measured at the 1.1-GeV Frascati electron synchrotron for bombarding photon energies k between 400 and 800 MeV and for π0 c.m. angles of θπ*=90∘, 120∘, and 135∘. The main feature of the experiment is good resolution in incident photon energy. The results are in good agreement with the existing theories in the energy range of 450 to 550 MeV. The cross sections exhibit a smooth behavior as a function of energy for k=400−600 MeV. No immediate evidence is found of a contribution of the P11 resonance. An anomaly at the limit of statistical significance appears for k≃700−740 MeV, indicating a possible structure of the so-called second resonance. We attempt to interpret the observed anomaly as a reflection of the sharp opening of the η production channel (η cusp effect).

Total and differential cross sections of the reaction K−p→Λη have been determined for incident K− lab momenta between 1.2 and 1.7 BeVc. No striking resonance formation in the direct channel is seen; in particular, the Y0*(2100) decays not more than 3% via the Λη channel. A prominent forward peak in the differential cross sections indicates some crossed-channel meson-exchange activity. The branching ratio Γ(η→neutrals)Γ(η→π+π−π0) is 3.6±0.6.

Differential cross sections for elastic π−p scattering were measured at eight energies for positive pions and seven energies for negative pions. Energies ranged from 310 to 650 MeV. These measurements were made at the 3-GeV proton synchrotron at Saclay, France. A beam of pions from an internal BeO target was directed into a liquid-hydrogen target. Fifty-one scintillation counters and a matrix-coincidence system were used to measure simultaneously elastic events at 21 angles and charged inelastic events at 78 π−p angle pairs. Events were detected by coincidence of pulses indicating the presence of an incident pion, scattered pion, and recoil proton, and the results were stored in the memory of a pulse-height analyzer. Various corrections were applied to the data and a least-squares fit was made to the results at each energy. The form of the fitting function was a power series in the cosine of the center-of-mass angle of the scattered pion. Integration under the fitted curves gave values for the total elastic cross sections (without charge exchange). The importance of certain angular-momentum states is discussed. The π−−p data are consistent with a D13 resonant state at 600 MeV, but do not necessarily require such a resonant state.
