The production of electron-positron pairs of masses below 1200 MeV/ c 2 and of transverse momentum above 1.8 GeV/ c has been studied in pp collisions at √ s = 53 and 63 GeV. The cross section for ϱ, ω, and φ production are presented. The continuum below 600 MeV/ c 2 is consistent with origination from Dalitz decays of η and ω mesons and from semileptonic decay of D and D mesons.

The inclusive production of protons with laboratory momentum less than 1.2 GeV/ c is studied in the reacion K + p → pX at 32 GeV/ c . A comparison with the 16 GeV/ c data shows ahat the total cross section remains practically constant while the structure function shows a clear energy dependence. The data are compatible with a tripls-Regge expansion and with factorization. About 40% of the events include a K 0 in the final state. The analysis of the K 0 pX sample indicates a sizeable contribution of beam fragmentation and abundant K 890 ∗ and Δ ++ production.

We present data on π0 and η inclusive production from 100-GeV/c π±p collisions in the kinematic region x>~0.7 and 0<−t≲4 (GeV/c)2. The results are in excellent agreement with the predictions of triple-Regge theory and we have extracted the ρ and A2 trajectories out to −t=4 (GeV/c)2.

Measurements of the cross section for the production of electron pairs with invariant masses between 4 and 8.7 GeV are presented as a function of the centre-of-mass energy ( s = 28 to s = 62 GeV ) of the colliding proton beams. A significant excess of events is observed in the region 8.7 to 10.3 GeV; these are ascribed to the ϒ(9.5 GeV) resonances and estimates of the production cross sections are given.
Axis error includes +- 40/40 contribution (Due to the uncertainty in efficiency).

The four cross section components σ U , σ L , σ P and σ I were separated in the reaction γ V + p → π + + n at an electron four momentum transfer of Q 2 = 0.70 GeV 2 and an invariant hadronic mass of 2.19 GeV in the range of t between t min and −0.28 GeV 2 . The longitudinal cross section σ L dominates at small |t| and decreases rapidly with increasing |t|. The data are in rough agreement with the prediction of a generalized Born term model. The resulting value for the pion electromagnetic form factor is F π = 0.42 ± 0.015.

The reaction e + p → e' + n + π + was studied detecting e' and e' and π + in coincidence at an invariant hadronic mass of 2.19 GeV. The measurements were performed at electron four-momentum transfers squared of Q 2 = 0.06, 0.28, 0.70, and 1.35 GeV 2 in the range of t = ( γ v − π ) 2 between t min and −1.0 GeV 2 . The cross section d 2 σ / dtd was found to be roughly independent of Q 2 for Q 2 > 0.7 GeV 2 and ∥ t ∥ > 0.2 GeV 2 .

The reaction K + p → p + X is studied at a beam momentum of 16 GeV/ c using the events where a slow proton with momentum p lab < 1.2 GeV/ c is identified by its bubble density. The inclusive spectra presented and compared with those obtained in K + p interactions at 32 GeV/ c and K − p interactions at 14.3 GeV/ c . The prominent features associated with a triple-Regge formula are found to be consistent with the data. It is shown that the Δ ++ (1236) production strongly affects the shape of the inclusive spectra and the results of the triple-Regge fit. After removal of events associated with Δ ++ (1236) production, the data are consistent with the dominance of an ffR coupling.

The reactions e + d → e ' + p S + p + π − and e + d → e ' + n S + n + π + were measured detecting electron and pion in coincidence at an invariant hadronic mass of 2.19 GeV. The measurements were performed at electron four-momentum transfer squared of f 2 = 0.70 and 1.35 GeV 2 in the range of t = ( γ v − π ) 2 between t min and −1.0 GeV 2 . The cross section d 2 σ / dtdφ of the reaction e + n → e' + p + π − was determined.

The inclusive cross sections for π − , π 0 , π + and η production in K − p interactions at 14.3 GeV/ c are calculated. The invariant cross section distributions are presented and compared in the whole phase space for π + and π 0 , and in the backward c.m. region for π − . In the fragmentation regions, the charged pion production is analysed in terms of the triple-Regge model.

The momentum transfer (t′) dependence of the JP=1+K*π and ρK partial waves in the K±π+π− system is presented. The production of the Q1 meson (m∼1300 MeV), which has a large ρK decay mode, obeys approximate s-channel helicity conservation. In contrast the production of the Q2 meson (m∼1400 MeV), which decays predominantly to K*π, satisfies approximate t-channel helicity conservation. Furthermore the Q1 production distributions are virtually identical, whereas the Q2± distributions exhibit a distinct cross-over for |t′|∼0.18 GeV2.
