Total reaction cross sections σR of (30–60)AMeV 4,6,8He and 6,7,8,9,11Li on Pb, and 2n-removal cross sections σ−2n of 6,8He and 11Li on Pb, were measured by injecting magnetically separated, focused, monoenergetic, secondary beams of those projectiles into a telescope containing Pb targets separated by thin Si detectors. All these σR’s (except 4He), and σ−2n for 6He and 11Li, are underpredicted by microscopic model calculations which include only nuclear forces. Better agreement is achieved by including electromagnetic dissociation in the model, for those projectiles for which either the electric dipole response functions or the dominant photodissociation cross sections were known. The cross sections σ−4n for 8He, σ−xn for 7,8,9Li, and (σ−3n+σ−4n) for 11Li were found to be ⩽0.7 b. All σR’s were measured to better than 5% accuracy, showing that the method is usable for other target elements sandwiched into a Si telescope.

Attenuation measurements of reaction and total cross sections have been made for π− beams at 410, 464, and 492 MeV on targets of CD2, 6Li, C, Al, S, Ca, Cu, Zr, Sn, and Pb. These results are assisted by and compared to predictions from a recent eikonal optical model. Calculations with this model, which does not include pion absorption, agree with recent elastic scattering data, but are significantly below our measured reaction and total cross sections.

Measurements at 19 beam kinetic energies between 1795 and 2235 MeV are reported for the pp elastic scattering spin correlation parameter A00nn=ANN=CNN. The c.m. angular range is typically 60–100°. The measurements were performed at Saturne II with a vertically polarized beam and target (transverse to the beam direction and scattering plane), a magnetic spectrometer and a recoil detector, both instrumented with multiwire proportional chambers, and beam polarimeters. These results are compared to previous data from Saturne II and elsewhere.
Measured values of CNN at EKIN 1795 Mev.. Fractional systematic uncertainty in the absolute beam and target polarization is +-0.110.
Measured values of CNN at EKIN 1845 Mev.. Fractional systematic uncertainty in the absolute beam and target polarization is +-0.073.

Yields and phase space distributions of φ -mesons emitted from p+p (minimum bias trigger), p+Pb (at various centralities) and central Pb+Pb collisions are reported ( E beam =158 A GeV). The decay φ →K + K − was used for identification. The φ / π ratio is found to increase by a factor of 3.0±0.7 from inelastic p+p to central Pb+Pb. Significant enhancement in this ratio is also observed in subclasses of p+p events (characterized by high charged-particle multiplicity) as well as in the forward hemisphere of central p+Pb collisions. In Pb+Pb no shift or significant broadening of the φ -peak is seen.

The p̄ 3 He annihilation cross section is measured for the first time in the momentum interval (50÷60) MeV/ c . About 9000 pictures collected by the Streamer Chamber Collaboration (PS179) at LEAR–CERN have been scanned. Six events are found, corresponding to σ ann =1850±700 mb. The result is compared to the set of measurements presently available in the region of low p̄ momentum.
The mean beam momentum at the center of the fiducial volume = 55 MeV.
Tensor polarization observables (t20, t21 and t22) have been measured in elastic electron-deuteron scattering for six values of momentum transfer between 0.66 and 1.7 (GeV/c)^2. The experiment was performed at the Jefferson Laboratory in Hall C using the electron HMS Spectrometer, a specially designed deuteron magnetic channel and the recoil deuteron polarimeter POLDER. The new data determine to much larger Q^2 the deuteron charge form factors G_C and G_Q. They are in good agreement with relativistic calculations and disagree with pQCD predictions.

Using a primary beam of 40 Ar at ∼1A GeV impinging on a Be target, the production cross-sections of light neutron-rich fragments from projectile fragmentation were measured at the projectile-fragment separator FRS at GSI. The experimental cross-sections were obtained for isotopes of the elements B to F both close to stability and near the neutron drip line. These data are compared to the results of the empirical parametrization EPAX. We also compare the results to those measured previously at LBL. As an additional result, the particle instability of 26 O has been confirmed.

The total cross section of the p d -> p d eta reaction has been measured at two energies near threshold by detecting the final proton and deuteron in a magneti spectrometer. The values are somewhat larger than expected on the basis of two simple theoretical estimates.
The first quoted error includes statistical and normalization uncertainties, the scond is that induced by the uncertainty in the excess energy.
