We present evidence for a large scalar contribution to the cross section for the reaction ep→eK+Λ. No evidence for a scalar contribution is found for the reaction ep→eK+Σ0. This is reminiscent of the results for the π+n and π+Δ0 final states.

Angular distributions of the target symmetry for the reaction γ + p → π 0 + p have been measured at the Bonn 2.5 GeV Electron Synchrotron at pion c.m. angles between 13° and 63° and photon energies of 1.0 and 1.1 GeV. The π 0 mesons were detected by their two decay photons with total absorption lead-glass Čerenkov counters. Butanol was used as target material in a continuous flow 3 He cryostat operating at 0.5 K and 25 kG. The π 0 counting rate from free protons in the butanol target was derived from the measurements of the differential cross section on hydrogen. The data are compared with data of other laboratories and the results of two recent partial-wave analyses.

The ratios of K+, K−, p, and p¯ yields to pion yields at transverse momenta (p⊥) ranging from 0.77 to 6.91 GeV/c arepresented for 200-, 300-, and 400-GeV p−p and 400-GeV p−d collisions. The dependences of the particle ratios on p⊥ and the scaling variable x⊥=2p⊥s are discussed.

We present results for the total cross section of e + e − annihilation into two hadrons at 1.6 GeV: σ ππ = σ KK = (1.8 ± 1.1) × 10 -33 cm 2 .From these values we obtain the time-like electromagnetic form factors these mesons: | F π | 2 = 0.24 ± 0.14 and | F K | 2 = 0.46 ± 0.26.

We compare production of the low mass K π -resonances by K + and K − beams in the non-charge-exchange reactions K ± p → K 0 s π ± p at 10 GeV/ c . High statistics data, obtained with the same apparatus, allow extraction of the K ∗ (890) and K ∗ (1420) production amplitudes corresponding to unnatural and natural parity exchange in the t -channel. The NPE-part dominates in both charge states. Its t -dependence shows a strong crossover at t ≈ −0.3 (GeV/ c ) 2 for the K ∗ (1420). For the K ∗ (890) the crossover is weaker but it occurs at the same value of t . This behaviour can be explained by pomeron, f and ω Regge exchange contributions to the NPE amplitude. The UPE amplitudes agree, both in normalisation and t -dependence, with the expectations of π and B exchange as isolated from data for the charge exchange reaction K − p → (K − π + )n.

Measurement of the exotic exchange reaction π − p → K + Σ − has been performed at 5 and 8 GeV, in the −0.015 to −0.13 and −0.009 to −0.15 (GeV/ c ) 2 range of t repectively. We give the value near t = 0 of the differential cross section at 5 GeV, 21 −21 +76 nb/(GeV/ c ) 2 , and an upper limit (< 37 nb/GeV/ c ) 2 ) at 8 GeV. As a check the measured differential cross section is given at both energies for the reaction π + p → K + Σ + in the same range of t ★★ ★★ Results presented here were included in the thesis of Doctorat d′Etat by M.N. Minard, Orsay, France, 1976. .

The polarization parameter in proton-proton elastic scattering has been measured at an incident momentum of 7.9 GeV/ c and four-momentum transfers in the range 0.9 < | t | < 6.5 (GeV/ c ) 2 using a high intensity unpolarized proton beam incident on a polarized proton target. The angle and momentum of the forward scattered protons were measured with a magnet spectrometer and scintillation counter hodoscopes and the angle of the recoil proton was measured using similar hodoscopes. A clean separation between the elastic scattering from free hydrogen and that coming from inelastic interactions and from interactions with complex nuclei in the target was obtained. The polarization shows substantial structure rising from zero at | t | = 1.0 (GeV/ c ) 2 to a maximum at | t | = 1.7 (GeV/ c ) 2 and then falling to zero at | t | = 2.0 (GeV/ c ) 2 . There is evidence of a further peak at | t | = 2.8 (GeV/ c ) 2 . Above | t | = 3.25 (GeV/ c ) 2 the polarization is small and consistent with zero. A comparison of these data with data obtained at other beam momenta shows that the polarization parameter has a strong momentum dependence.

Cross-section, angular distribution and polarization measurements are presented at six incident π + energies for the reaction π + p → K + Σ + . Results at already studied energies are compatible with existing data and roughly agree with predictions of partial-waves analyses. However, new results around 1.920 GeV are in disagreement with such predictions, casting some doubt on the determination of decay branching ratios of the T = 3 2 isobars around this mass into K + Σ + .
