We have performed a hyperon-proton scattering experiment with a scintillating fiber active target. The Σ − p, Λ p and Σ + p scattering have been studied with the same experimental setup. In this paper, we present the differential cross sections of the Σ − p elastic scattering in the momentum region from 400 to 700 MeV /c . This is the first measurement of the Σ − p elastic scattering in the momentum region where the P- and higher waves contributions are important. The present data are in good agreement with the one boson exchange model (Bonn–Jülich model A) and the quark cluster model (FSS of Kyoto–Niigata model).

Total and differential cross sections for $J / \psi$ production were measured in the Feynman x region $x_F \leq$ 0.1 $\leq$ 0.8 with 530 GeV /c proton and $\pi^-$ beams incident on a beryllium target. We have compared the $P_T$ and $X_F$ distributions with those obtained at lower beam energies and found that the average $P_T$ of $J/\psi$ particles slowly increases with center-of-mass energy, whereas the $X_F$ distribution becomes more centralized. We also found that $J/\psi$ are produced more centrally by protons than by pions. There is similarity, between incident protons and pions, in the properties of the particles, also measured in this experiment, produced in association with $J/\psi$s. We observe the same average charge multiplicities and average forward charges for the proton and pion data. Therefore, we argue that similar mechanisms dominate $J/\psi$ production by these particles and that the differences in the $J/\psi$ Feynman x distributions reflect differences in the proton and pion gluon structure functions. We have also found that the relative production rate of $J/\psi$s and continuum muon pairs does not change with event inelasticity, contrary to the findings of a heavy-ion collision experiment.

Results of the experimental study of inclusive φ meson production off berillium nuclei by 70 GeV/ c protons in the beam fragmentation region x > 0.41 are presented. Fitting of the measured differential cross sections to the forms d σ d x ∼ (1 − x) n x and d σ d p 2 t ∼ exp (−bp 2 t ) gives the parameters n = 6.0 ± 1.7 and b = (2.4 ± 0.7) (GeV/ c ) −2 . In the framework of a quark-parton model the measured φ meson x -distribution suggests that in the region of x > 0.41 nearly 90% of the φ mesons are produced via a strange sea quark fusion. The ratio of the OZI-forbidden and OZI-allowed transition coupling constants has been found to be ten times smaller than the same ratio calculated from the partial decay widths. The total inclusive cross section is estimated to be σ (pN → φ X) = (0.7 ± 0.2) × 10 −27 cm 2 .
