The reaction e + e − → ω o has been measured by detecting the charged pions of the π + π − π o decay mode of the ω o. A partial decay width of ω o in e + e − : Γ e + e − =0.94±0.18 keV is deduced from this result.
FITTED, BACKGROUND SUBTRACTED, PEAK OMEGA CROSS SECTION, CORRECTED FOR UNOBSERVED DECAYS, IS 1.82 +- 0.34 MUB. TABULATED ASSUMING CENTRAL ENERGY IS 782.6 MEV. VACUUM POLARIZATION AND RADIATIVE CORRECTIONS APPLIED.
We have performed a high statistics measurement of the production rate and the energy flow pattern of hadron events between √ s =33 and 36.7 GeV. The data show no evidence for the production of a new quark with charge 2 3 e . Planar events in e + e − →hadrons are shown to have three well separated jets. The production rate and the shape of three-jet events are compared with many models and we find that only the QCD model can explain the data.

The experimental setup and detection technique of the COSY-11 installation, an internal experimental facility at the cooler synchrotron and storage ring COSY Jülich, are described. The detection system has been designed for meson production studies with full geometrical acceptance close to threshold. Preliminary results of first measurements are presented, emphasis is put on strangeness production in the reactions pp → ppK + K − and pp → pK + Λ .
Excess energy of 6.1 MeV above threshold 3.3016 GeV.
Excess energy of 2 MeV above threshold 2.339 GeV.
Total cross sections for reactions e + e − → π + π − π 0 , π + π − π 0 , 2 π + 2 π − π 0 , 2 π + 2 π − 2 π 0 , 3 π + 3 π − have been measured in the total c.m. energy range 1.42–2.20 GeV. Partial R = σ had / σ σ + μ − values for two and four produced charged pions, and cross sections for positive and negative G -parity states are also reported.
THE CROSS SECTIONS FOR PRODUCING AN ODD OR EVEN NUMBER OF PIONS CORRESPOND TO NEGATIVE OR POSITIVE G-PARITY FINAL STATES. CROSS SECTION FOR E+ E- --> PI+ PI+ PI+ PI- PI- PI- IS LESS THAN ABOUT 2 NB IN THIS ENERGY RANGE.
We present experimental results on a number of K − p reactions at 14.3 GeV/ c that have three bodies in the final state. The final states are K − ω p , K − π p , Λπ + π − , Λ K + K − , Λp p , K ∗ − ω p , Λ(1520) K + K − and Λ(1520) p p . Whenever, with one exception explained by the Zweig rule, there is a K − or a proton in the final state, there is a diffractive-like threshold enhancement in the mass spectrum of the two recoiling particles. These enhancements account for a large fraction of the events in all but the Λπ + π − final state, where they cannot occur, and which is dominated by resonance production. We find evidence for the Q 1 (1300) decaying into K − ω .
THE DIFFRACTION DISSOCIATION CROSS SECTIONS ARE FOR DIFFRACTIVE THRESHOLD ENHANCEMENTS IN THE TWO-BODY MASS SPECTRA (WITHIN 500 MEV CM ENERGY OF THRESHOLD).
The results of the first experiment performed at DCI in e + e − annihilations in the c.m. energy range 1.350–2.125 GeV region are presented. The cross sections of various multipion channels are extracted. Significant structure appears in some specific channels. A relatively narrow resonance around 1.660 GeV decaying into 3 π 's is found. Charged and neutral multiplicities, and also the ratio R are given.
R VALUE SEEMS CONSTANT OVER THIS ENERGY RANGE.
Threshold measurements of the associated strangeness production reactions pp --> p K(+) Lambda and pp --> p K(+) Sigma(0) are presented. Although slight differences in the shapes of the excitation functions are observed, the most remarkable feature of the data is that at the same excess energy the total cross section for the Sigma(0) production appears to be about a factor of 28 smaller than the one for the Lambda particle. It is concluded that strong Sigma(0)-p final state interactions, and in particular the Sigma-N --> Lambda-p conversion reaction, are the likely cause of the depletion for the yield in the Sigma signal. This hypothesis is in line with other experimental evidence in the literature.
The given errors are statistical only. The cross section presented as a function of the nominal excess energy.
A tagged photon beam (2.8<Eγ<4.8 GeV) and multiparticle spectrometer have been used to study the photoproduction in hydrogen ofK+Λ(1520). Precise values for the mass and width of the Λ(1520) are given. The total cross-section is found to fall with increasing photon energy like (6.5±0.7)Eγ−(2.1±0.2) μb. The differential cross sectiondσ/dt indicates peripheral forward production and exhibits no evidence for shrinkage when compared with higher energy data. The Λ(1520) spin density matrix shows thatK exchange alone cannot account for the production mechanism. The reaction is found to resemble the process γp→K+ Λ(1115) in all measurable respects.

We report on results of η-electroproduction in the resonance region at momentum transfers ofQ2=2 GeV2 and 3 GeV2. The differential cross sections obtained in the region of the second nucleon resonance strongly support the dominance of theS11(1535) in this channel. The total transverse virtual photoproduction cross section of theS11(1535) shows a flatQ2-dependence ∼e−0.39·Q2. Comparison with the total resonant γvp cross section in the second resonance region aroundW=1.5 GeV shows that theD13(1520) production decreases much faster (∼e−1.6·Q2). The data are not compatible with the simple harmonic oscillator quark model with spin and orbit excitation of a quark only.

The quasifree p+n→d+η reaction cross section has been measured at the threshold using 1295 MeV protons in the CELSIUS storage ring and an internal cluster-jet deuterium target. The kinematics is chosen such that the target proton can be assumed to be a spectator. The Fermi momentum of the target neutron is used to extract the energy dependence of the cross section by reconstructing the kinematics on an event-by-event basis. The data cover excess energies from threshold to 10 MeV in the center of mass of the final dη system. Approaching the threshold the cross section is enhanced compared to what is expected from phase space. This behavior is typical for a strong final-state interaction.
