Elastic diffraction scattering of π − , K − and p on protons has been measured at 25 and 40 GeV/c at the Serpukhov Proton Accelerator. Differential elastic cross sections and diffraction slopes are presented in the momentum-transfer interval 0.07–0.80 (GeV/ c ) 2 and compared with existing data at lower energies.

Electron-proton elastic scattering cross sections have been measured at squared four-momentum transfers q 2 of 0.67, 1.00, 1.17, 1.50, 1.75, 2.33 and 3.00 (GeV/ c ) 2 and Electron scattering angles θ e between 10° and 20° and at about 86° in the laboratory. The proton electromagnetic form factors G E p and G M p were determined. The results indicate that G E p ( q 2 ) decreases faster with increasing q 2 than G M p ( q 2 ). Quasi-elastic electron-deuteron cross sections have been determined at values of q 2 = 0.39, 0.565, 0.78, 1.0 and 1.5 (GeV/ c ) 2 and scattering angles between 10° and 12°. At q 2 = 0.565 (GeV/ c 2 data have also been taken with θ e = 35° and at q 2 = 1.0 and 1.5 (GeV/ c ) 2 with θ e = 86°. Electron-proton as well as electron-neutron scattering cross sections have been deduced by the ratio method. The theoretical uncertainties of this procedure are shown to be small by comparison of the bound with the free proton cross sections. The magnetic form factor of the neutron G M n derived from the data is consistent with the scaling law. The charge form factor of the neutron is found to be small.

Results are reported based on a study of 3114 π−p events at 205 GeV/c in the National Accelerator Laboratory 30-in. bubble chamber. The measured π−p total and elastic cross sections are 24.0 ± 0.5 and 3.0 ± 0.3 mb, respectively. The elastic differential cross section has a slope of 9.0 ± 0.7 GeV−2 for 0.03≤−t≤0.6 GeV2. The average charged-particle multiplicity for the inelastic events is 8.02 ± 0.12.

The differential cross sections for KL0p→KS0p scattering are presented in several momentum intervals between 1 and 10 GeVc. The data are strongly peaked in the forward direction, characteristic of a large s-channel helicity-nonflip scattering amplitude in this reaction, and a distinct break in the differential cross section occurs at |t|=0.3 GeV2. The phase of the forward scattering amplitude, φ, is consistent with being independent of momentum. The average value of the phase, φ=−133.9±4.0∘, corresponds to a Regge trajectory α(0)=0.49±0.05 in agreement with the canonical ρ, ω0 Regge intercept, α(0)∼0.5. However, this result disagrees with the Regge trajectory determined from the energy dependence of the forward cross section, α(0)=0.30±0.03, indicating a breaking of the Regge phase-energy relation. Comparisons of KL0p→KS0p and π−p→π0n scattering data reveal substantial differences in the energy dependence of the differential cross sections. Comparisons to KN charge-exchange data then suggest that direct-channel (absorption) effects may explain the differences in πN and KN channels.

In an experiment with the CERN 2 metre DBC the reaction K$^+$d $\to$ K$^0 \pi^+$d is studied at an incident momentum of 4.6 GeV/c. The cross section is found to be (66 ± 10) μb for four-momentum transfer squared from target to recoil deuteron greater than 0.02 GeV 2 , and the reaction is dominated by the production of K$^*+$ (892) via natural parity exchange. Using data for the reactions K$^\pm$d $\to$ K$^{*\pm}$(892)d in the incident momentum range 2–13 GeV/ c the parameters of the effective exchanged trajectory are estimated.

From an exposure of the Argonne National Laboratory 12-foot bubble chamber to a beam of 12.4-GeV/c protons we have obtained a 3649-event sample of the reaction pp→γ+anything, where we observe photon conversions into e+e− pairs in the liquid hydrogen. We find that the invariant cross section for this reaction does not separate in its x and P⊥ dependence at our energy. By setting upper bounds on the cross sections for inclusive η and Σ0 production, we show that π0 decay is the dominant source of photons and therefore measure the cross section for inclusive π0 production to be σ(π0)=(31.5±2.6) mb. Comparison with the inclusive π+ and π− cross sections at 12.0 GeV/c shows that the relation 2σ(π0)=σ(π+)+σ(π−) is well satisfied. We confirm earlier indications that the average number of π0's per inelastic pp interaction is approximately independent of the number of associated charged particles produced.
Axis error includes +- 8/8 contribution (THE CROSS SECTION FOR NON-PI0 GAMMA PRODUCTION IS LESS THAN 2.3 MB AND HAS BEEN NEGLECTED IN OBTAINING THE 31.5+-2.6 MB CROSS SECTION FOR THE INCLUSIVE PI0 PRODUCTION).
