We have observed muons produced directly in Cu and W targets by 300-GeV incident protons. We find a yield of muons which is approximately a constant fraction (0.8·10−4) of the pion yield for both positive and negative charges and for transverse momenta between 1.5 and 5.4 GeV/c.
Results are presented concerning topological cross-sections and multiplicity distribution for a π−p experiment at 11.2 GeV/c. The statistics used are one-half of the total ones (106 bubble chamber pictures). Comparison with data at different energies and theoretical predictions are made, and satisfactory agreement is obtained.

We present the results of a detailed study of ω′(1675) production in the reaction π+p→Δ++π+π−π0 from a high-statistics bubble-chamber experiment at 15 GeV/c. We have measured the mass, width, and cross section as well as differential cross section and spin density matrix elements and compare then to A20 production in the same reaction. We show clear evidence for the resonant phase increase of the 3− (ρπ)fI=0 amplitude with ω′(1675) production.
Polarization in π − p elastic scattering, with emphasis over the backward region, has been measured at 2.93 and 3.25 GeV/ c . We observe large changes in polarization compared with existing data above and below these energies. Our data may be useful in determining the properties of resonances and in understanding baryon exchanges.
We discuss the structure of the momentum transfer distributions for the diffractive dissociation processes p → n π + , p → Δ ++ π − and K − → K 890 ∗0 π − . In the near-threshold mass region a clear break of slope is found around t ′KK ∼ 0.25 GeV 2 for the two baryonic channels, whereas no comparable structure is seen for the mesonic system. The K → K ∗ π differential cross section exhibits a nearly exponential behaviour up to t ′ pp ∼ 0.6 GeV 2 , falling over three orders of magnitude. The slope variations and breaks are strongly correlated both to the mass region considered and to the decay angle of the fragmentation system.
We present experimental results and a partial-wave analysis of the low-mass ( K π) 0 systems produced in the reactions K − p → K π N at 14.3 GeV/ c . The main results concern the production mechanisms of the K ∗ (890) and K ∗ (1420) . We also extract the s-wave component of the K π system as a function of mass.
