The s and t dependence of φ (1019) photoproduction has been investigated in the incident photon energy range 2.8 to to 4.8 GeV. Differential cross-sections and density matrix elements are presented for a t range extending from t min out to −1.3 (GeV/ c ) 2 . The results are discussed in terms discussed in terms of an effective Regge trajectory in the t -channel.

We have observed the D(1285), E(1420) and δ(975) mesons produced in 12 and 15 GeV/ c π − p interactions at the CERN Omega Spectrometer. Production cross sections and decay branching ratios are presented. Analysis of the decay D(1285) → δ (975) π favours a spin-parity assignment of 1 + .

Using a high statistics sample of K − p interactions at 4.2 GeV/ c , the production and decay properties of the Ξ ∗ (1820) are discussed. The mass and width are found to be M = (1823 ± 2) MeV and Γ = (21 ± 7) MeV. Evidence is found for Ξ ∗ (2030) in the Σ K ̄ channel and for a new Ξ ∗ at a mass of 2120 MeV in the ΛK − channel.
XI(1820)- PRODUCTION CROSS SECTIONS ARE FOR -UP < 3 GEV**2 AND ARE CORRECTED FOR ISOSPIN AND UNSEEN DECAY MODES.

A partial wave analysis of the K 0 π + π − system produced in the charge exchange reaction K − p → ( K 0 π + π − ) n at 4.2 GeV/ c has been performed both as a function of Kππ mass and of t ′. The 1 + S wave forms the largest contribution to the K ππ system and peaks at roughly the same mass as the Q in diffractive K ππ production. The polarization properties of the 1 + S ( K ∗ π) and 1 + S (Kϱ) waves differ fromt those of the diffractive 1 + wave. There is some evidence for a resonance contribution to 1 + S ( K ∗ π) . The strong 2 + wave the K ∗ (1420) and the K ϱ/ K ∗ ϱ decay branching ratio determined to be 0.36±0.10. An enhancement with spin-parity 1 − is observed under K ∗ (1420) .
CROSS SECTION CORRECTED FOR BREIT-WIGNER TAILS, THE TP CUT, UNSEEN <AK0 PI> AND <K RHO> DECAY MODES. BRANCHING RATIO K*(1420) --> <K RHO>/<K* PI> = 0.36 +- 0.10.
