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.
ERRORS INCLUDE THE 5 PCT MODEL ERROR BUT NOT THEORETICAL RESONANCE PARAMETRIZATION ERRORS.

ALL EVENTS WITH 1.46<M(KS KS)<1.60GEV.
In a high statistics CERN 2 m bubble chamber experiment the differential cross sections and polarizations of the Λ for the reactions K − p → Λπ 0 , Λη , Λη ′ at 4.2 GeV/ c have been measured. The reaction K − p → Λη exhibits a pronounced dip around − t ∼0.5 ( GeV / c ) 2 and all three reactions show a significant backward peaking (− u < 1.0 (GeV/ c ) 2 ). The Λ polarization in the reaction K − p → Λπ 0 is measured to be significantly different from zero throughout most of the available t -range. Forward cross sections enable a determination of R T , the ratio of singlet/octet coupling η 1 KK ∗∗ η 8 KK ∗∗ . Backward cross sections are utilized to estimate the effective η-nucleon coupling constant g η NN 2 over the − u range 0–1.5 ( GeV /c) 2 .

The reactions K − p→ π − Σ + (1385) and K − p→ π + Σ − (1385) are studied at 4.2 GeV c incident momentum using data from a high statistics bubble chamber experiment corresponding to ∼80 events/μb. The total and differential cross sections are presented. Amplitude analyses are performed and the complete Σ ± (1385) helicity spin density matrices are extracted. The results are compared with the predictions of the additive quark model and exchange degeneracy. A substantial cross section is observed for the reaction K − p→ π + Σ − (1385) in the forward direction, which implies exotic meson quantum numbers in the t -channel. One possible interpretation of this process provides an explanation for the small but significant violations of the additive quark model predictions observed in the reaction K − p→ π − Σ + (1385) at low four-momentum transfer. In the backward direction unnatural parity exchange is shown to give a larger contribution to K − p→ Σ − (1385) π + than natural parity exchange.

AVERAGED OVER ALL PRODUCTION ANGLES.
We present measurements of the differential and polarization cross sections for the reactions KL0p→Ks0p, Λπ+, Σ0π+, and Λπ+π0 made in a hydrogen bubble chamber exposed to a beam of KL0 with incident momentum 550±35 MeV/c. The quasielastic data imposes additional constraints on the partial-wave analyses of the KN and K¯N systems. Our data show no strong energy-dependent effects in the region of the reported Σ(1580), JP=32− state. The phase of the forward regeneration amplitude was found to be about - 160° independent of KL0 momentum.

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.

Data on multiplicity, correlations, and inclusive spectra of KS0 mesons and Λ0(Λ¯0) hyperons produced with xF≤0 in inelastic pNe20 and pN interactions at 300 GeV are presented and compared. The inclusive cross sections for pNe20 (pN) with xF≤0 are 61.1±2.8 mb (3.34±0.64 mb) for KS0, 40.8±2.5 mb (1.89±0.29 mb) for Λ0, and 3.9±0.5 mb (0.31±0.08 mb) for Λ¯0. The multiplicity ratio for pNe20 and pN interactions is 1.58±0.16 for KS0, 1.95±0.23 for Λ0, and 1.12±0.43 for Λ¯0. We have observed the Σ0(1193) hyperon and measured the average multiplicity (nΣ0=0.049±0.027) for xF≤0. We have also observed the strange resonances K*(892), K*(1415), and Σ*(1385) with xF≤0 and measured the fraction of V0 coming from each resonance. Λ0 polarization for xF≤0 is measured and shows a decrease as p⊥ increases [pΛ(pNe20)≈−0.25 at p⊥=1.5 GeV/c], in agreement with other experiments which measure polarization in the region xF≫0. Since (43±7)% of the Λ0 are produced in Σ0→Λ0γ decays, the Λ0 polarization is significantly greater than the measured values. Experimental results are compared to predictions of the Lund model and the dual parton model of soft hadron-nucleus and hadron-nucleon interactions.

Differential and channel cross sections and hyperon polarizations are presented for the reactions K L o p → K S o p, π + Λ o , and π + Σ o at an average beam momentum of 550 MeV/ c . These data provide constraints on KN and K N amplitudes obtained from charged kaon reactions and reject one of the S = +1, I = 0 and one of the S = -1, I = 1 phase shift solutions.

The reaction $\gamma p \rightarrow \omega p$ $(\omega \rightarrow \pi~+\pi~-\pi~0$ and $\pi~0\rightarrow\gamma\gamma)$ has been studied in $ep$ interactions using the \mbox{ZEUS} detector at photon-proton centre-of-mass energies between $70$ and $90\uni{GeV}$ and $|t| < 0.6\uni{GeV}~2$, where $t$ is the squared four momentum transferred at the proton vertex. The elastic \ome photoproduction cross section has been measured to be $\sigma_{\gamma p\rightarrow \omega p} = 1.21\pm 0.12\pm 0.23 \mu\mbox{b}$. The differential cross section $d\sigma_{\gamma p\rightarrow \omega p} /d|t|$ has an exponential shape $\mbox{e}~{-b |t|}$ with a slope $b = 10.0\pm 1.2\pm 1.3\uni{GeV}~{-2}$. The angular distributions of the decay pions are consistent with {\it s}-channel helicity conservation. When compared to low energy data, the features of $\omega$ photoproduction as measured at HERA energies are in agreement with those of a soft diffractive process. Previous measurements of the $\rho~0$ and $\phi$ photoproduction cross sections at HERA show a similar behaviour.
