We have measured the forward production spectra of various neutral particles produced by π−, K−, p¯, and p at 200 GeV/c, and by π− at 290 GeV/c incident on a Be target. The salient features of these measurements are (1) copious production of KSo at large Feynman xL for incident π− and K−, (2) production of roughly equal fluxes of Λ0 and Λ¯0 for incident π−, and (3) close similarity of the following spectra: π−→n and K−→Λ0; π−→Λ0, π−→Λ¯0, and p→KS0; π−→KS0 and p→Λ0. The overall features of the various distributions seem to agree with the ideas of dimensional counting presented in the constituent-interchange model of quark collisions. Results are presented in terms of the invariant cross section Ed3σ(xL, PT=0)dp3 per Be nucleus for each inclusive reaction.
Inclusive production of Λ0 hyperons by 300-GeV protons has been measured at fixed production angles in the laboratory between 0 and 9 mrad and laboratory momenta from 65 to 300 GeV/c. Three different solid targets were used: beryllium, copper, and lead. The A dependence of the data is suggestive of a collision model in which the hadron loses energy and gains transverse momentum as it leaves the nucleus. The experimental results are compared to such a model, and the implications are discussed.
Antiproton-proton annihilations into final states containing one or two K10-mesons are studied on the basis of 450 000 pictures from the CERN 2 m HBC. The experiment covers the domain of antiproton incident momentum from 1.50 to 2.04 GeV/c. The resonance production rates are computed for the most abundant channels. The K10K10 threshold effect is explained through the inelastic channel π+π− → K10K10. The decay modes D, E → δ±(975)π∓, δ±(975) → K10K± are pointed out. The strange mesons C and C′ are observed in these annihilations and come mainly from the two-body channels \(p\bar p\) → (C, C′)K and\(p\bar p\) → (C, C′)K*.
Experimental results for the cross-sections, the effectivemass distributions, the angular distributions and correlations are presented for the reaction\(\bar p\)p → 3π−3π+. All the multipion mass distributions and the ππ angular correlations are described in terms of a final-state interaction model including theδ00 andδ11 ππ phase shifts, as well as an A2 effect.

Cross sections are presented for production of final states with two strange particles from π+p interactions at 10.3 GeV/c in a 31.1-event/μb bubble-chamber experiment.
A high-mass Δ resonance is observed in several final states from π + p interactions at 10.3 GeV/ c . We obtain fitted mass and width values for this structure of 1871 ± 22 MeV and 205 ± 43 MeV, respectively. The branching ratios for decays to π + p, p π + π 0 , n π + π + and Σ + K + are found to be 0.48 ± 0.15, 0.26 ± 0.07, 0.24 ± 0.07 and 0.03 ± 0.01, respectively. The Δϱ, Δω differential cross sections and the ϱ 0 density matrix elements are examined.
Measurements of flux-normalized neutrino and antineutrino total charged-current cross sections (σ) in the energy range 45
We present results on flux-normalized neutrino and antineutrino cross sections near y=0 from data obtained in the Fermilab narrow-band beam. We conclude that values of σ0=dσdy|y=0 are consistent with rising linearly with energy over the range 45<~Eν<~20.5 GeV. The separate averages of ν and ν¯, each measured to 4%, are equal to well within the errors. The best fit for the combined data gives σ0E=(0.719±0.035)×10−38 cm2/GeV at an average Eν of 100 GeV.
