Phys.Rev.Lett. 56 (1986) 207, 1986.
Inspire Record 220003 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.20236

The cross section for the production of π+π− or K+K− pairs in γγ interactions is measured for mππ between 1.7 and 3.5 GeV/c2 and for two intervals of γγ center-of-mass scattering angle. Results are compared with predictions of a QCD model.

Electroproduction of $\rho^0$ Mesons

Cohen, I. ; Erickson, R. ; Messing, F. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.D 25 (1982) 634, 1982.
Inspire Record 152921 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.47139

Cross sections for ρ0 electroproduction measured in a streamer-chamber experiment are separated into elastic (ep→epρ0) and inelastic production channels. For the elastic channel, the total cross section and t dependence are presented. For the inelastic channel (1σ)dσdz, (1σ)dσdpT2, and a density matrix element are shown and compared to quark-parton-model predictions. The ratio of ρ0 to direct π0 production is found to be 2.0±0.5±0.3, where the first error is statistical, and the second error is systematic.

The Reactions $K^- p \to$ Pseudoscalar Meson $\Lambda(1520)$ at 4.2-{GeV}/$c$

The Amsterdam-CERN-Nijmegen-Oxford collaboration Barlag, S.J.M. ; Blokzijl, R. ; Jongejans, B. ; et al.
Nucl.Phys.B 149 (1979) 220-236, 1979.
Inspire Record 130106 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.34820

The total and differential cross sections of the reactions K − p → π 0 Λ (1520), ηΛ(1520) and η′ Λ(1520) have been measured. Prominent forward peaks are onserved in all three reactions. The first reaction shows also a backward peak. The spin density matrix elements of the Λ(1520) in this reaction are determined. For forward production the results show a remarkable alignment of the Λ(1520) corresponding to an M2 transition in the model of Stodolsky-Sakurai for 3 2 − baryon production.

Nonstrange Vector Meson Production in K- p Interactions at 4.2-GeV/c

The Amsterdam-CERN-Nijmegen-Oxford collaboration Losty, M.J. ; Holmgren, S.-O. ; Aguilar-Benitez, M. ; et al.
Nucl.Phys.B 133 (1978) 38, 1978.
Inspire Record 121759 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.8294

The vector meson production, hypercharge exchange reactions K − p → ( φ , ω , ϱ ) Λ and ( φ , ϱ ) Σ 0 are studied at 4.2 GeV/ c incident momentum. The data come from a high statistics bubble chamber experiment with a sensitivity of ∼ 120 events/μb. Total and differential cross sections are presented. The vector meson density matrix elements and hyperon polarization are investigated as functions of momentum transfer. Amplitude analyses are performed for all five reactions. The results are compared with duality and quark model predictions, as well as used to test current ideas in two-body phenomenology.

The K- p Charge Exchange and Elastic Scattering Reactions at 4.2-GeV/c

The Amsterdam-CERN-Nijmegen-Oxford collaboration Marzano, F. ; Toet, D.Z. ; Gavillet, P. ; et al.
Phys.Lett.B 68 (1977) 292, 1977.
Inspire Record 119361 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.48927

In this letter results are presented on the reactions K − p → K 0 n and K − p → K − p from a high statistics CERN 2-metre hydrogen bubble chamber exposure at 4.15 GeV/ c . The behaviour of the differential cross section as a function of four-momentum transfer shows remarkable similarities between the two reactions studied. From a comparison of our data with K + p elastic scattering at 4.27 GeV/ c we draw some conclusions concerning the magnitude of the contributing amplitudes.

The Reactions K- p --> pi-+ Sigma+- at 4.2-GeV/c

The Amsterdam-CERN-Nijmegen-Oxford collaboration Massaro, G.G.G. ; Barlag, S. ; de Groot, A.J. ; et al.
Phys.Lett.B 66 (1977) 385-389, 1977.
Inspire Record 110532 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.27595

We present differential cross sections and the Σ + polarization for the reactions K − p → π ∓ Σ ± using data from a high statistics bubble chamber experiment at 4.2 GeV/ c incident momentum. The statistical level allows a detailed analysis of these reactions over the whole t range. Several significant structures are observed. Comparisons are made with SU(3)-related reactions; for backward production of π − Σ + such a comparison shows good evidence for Δ exchange. The exotic forward peak in K − p → π + Σ − is definitely confirmed.

Rho Production by Virtual Photons

Joos, P. ; Ladage, A. ; Meyer, H. ; et al.
Nucl.Phys.B 113 (1976) 53-92, 1976.
Inspire Record 108749 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.35708

The reaction γ V p → p π + π − was studied in the W , Q 2 region 1.3–2.8 GeV, 0.3–1.4 GeV 2 using the streamer chamber at DESY. A detailed analysis of rho production via γ V p→ ϱ 0 p is presented. Near threshold rho production has peripheral and non-peripheral contributions of comparable magnitude. At higher energies ( W > 2 GeV) the peripheral component is dominant. The Q 2 dependence of σ ( γ V p→ ϱ 0 p) follows that of the rho propagator as predicted by VDM. The slope of d σ /d t at 〈 Q 2 〉 = 0.4 and 0.8 GeV 2 is within errors equal to its value at Q 2 = 0. The overall shape of the ϱ 0 is t dependent as in photoproduction, but is independent of Q 2 . The decay angular distribution shows that longitudinal rhos dominate in the threshold region. At higher energies transverse rhos are dominant. Rho production by transverse photons proceeds almost exclusively by natural parity exchange, σ T N ⩾ (0.83 ± 0.06) σ T for 2.2 < W < 2.8 GeV. The s -channel helicity-flip amplitudes are small compared to non-flip amplitudes. The ratio R = σ L / σ T was determined assuming s -channel helicity conservation. We find R = ξ 2 Q 2 / M ϱ 2 with ξ 2 ≈ 0.4 for 〈 W 〉 = 2.45 GeV. Interference between rho production amplitudes from longitudinal and transverse photons is observed. With increasing energy the phase between the two amplitudes decreases. The observed features of rho electroproduction are consistent with a dominantly diffractive production mechanism for W > 2 GeV.

Line Reversal Breaking in K+- n Charge Exchange and K+- n --> K0 Delta (1236) at 4-GeV/c and 6-GeV/c

Phelan, J.J. ; Ambats, I. ; Meyer, W.T. ; et al.
Phys.Lett.B 61 (1976) 483-486, 1976.
Inspire Record 2871 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.27677

Differential cross sections for the line-reversed reaction pairs K + 0p → K o Δ ++ (1236), K − n → K ̄ o Δ − (1236) and K − p → K ̄ o n , K + n → K o p have been measured with good statistics at 4 and 6 GeV/ c . The line reversal breaking for the Δ (1236) reactions is found to have no significant variation with energy and to be larger than for the charge exchange reactions. The cross sections for all four reactions show a dip in the forward direction, indicating the importance of spin-flip amplitudes.

We have studied photoproduction using a 1 m streamer chamber at DESY and a tagged photon beam with an energy range of 1.6 GeV < E γ < 6.3 GeV. We analysed approximately 30 000 events and report topological, channel and resonance production cross sections for a large number of reactions with three and five outgoing charged particles.
