Measurement of the $\vec{\gamma} p \to K^+ \Lambda$ Reaction at Backward Angles

The LEPS collaboration Hicks, K. ; Mibe, T. ; Sumihama, M. ; et al.

Inspire Record 756925 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.25090

Cross sections for the $\gamma p \to K^+ \Lambda$ have been measured at backward angles using linearly polarized photons in the range 1.50 to 2.37 GeV. In addition, the beam asymmetry for this reaction has been measured for the first time at backward angles. The $\Lambda$ was detected at forward angles in the LEPS spectrometer via its decay to $p\pi^-$ and the K^+ was inferred using the technique of missing mass. These measurements, corresponding to kaons at far backward angles in the center-of-mass frame, complement similar CLAS data at other angles. Comparison with theoretical models shows that the reactions in these kinematics provide further opportunities to investigate the reaction mechanisms of hadron dynamics.

A Study of the Reactions $K^- p \to \Lambda \pi^0$, $\Lambda \eta$, $\Lambda \eta^\prime$ at 8.25-{GeV}/$c$ Incident $K^-$ Momentum

Nucl.Phys.B 183 (1981) 269-294, 1981.
Inspire Record 155276 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.34295

Differential cross sections and polarizations are presented for the reactions K − p → Λπ 0 , Λη , Λη ′ at 8.25 GeV/ c incident K − momentum. The data, which come from a high statistics experiment in the CERN 2 m bubble chamber, are compared with previous experimental results on the same reactions and with current theoretical ideas.

A STUDY OF THE REACTIONS ANTI-K0 P ---> LAMBDA PI+ (BACKWARD) AND ANTI-K0 P ---> SIGMA0 PI+ (BACKWARD) FOR KAON MOMENTA BETWEEN 1 AND 8-GEV/C

Bamberger, A. ; Bruning, H. ; Brundiers, H.J. ; et al.
Nucl.Phys.B 174 (1980) 277-299, 1980.
Inspire Record 159454 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.34465

We present results for the reactions K 0 p →Λπ + and K 0 p →∑ 0 π + , for |u'| <0. 05 ( GeV /c) 2 and kaon momenta between 1 and 8 GeV/ c . The experiment was performed ina neutral beam at the PS with a two arm spark chamber spectrometer. The cross sections show strong dependence on beam energy and momentum transfer u ′. Λ polarization is compatible with zero. We compare energy dependence of the backward cross sections with the baryon exchange model from π N scattering.

Measurement of Differential Cross-Section and Polarization in the Backward Peak of the Reactions pi- p --> Lambda K0 and pi- p --> Lambda K* (890) at 8-GeV/c

Brundiers, H. ; Hartung, R. ; Runge, K. ; et al.
Nucl.Phys.B 119 (1977) 349-361, 1977.
Inspire Record 123952 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.35527

Differential cross sections and polarizations have been measured for the backward peaks in the reactions π − p →Λ K 0 and π − p →Λ K ∗ (890) at 8 GeV/c. The experiment was performed with a liquid hydrogen target at the ω spectrometer. The cross sections for u′>−2 ( GeV /c) 2 are 0.27 ± 0.03 μ b for π − p →Λ+ K 0 and 0.55±0.07 μ b for π − p →Λ K ∗0 . Large positive Λ polarization was observed in both reactions for u ′>−0.5 (GeV/ c ) 2 . The dominant production mechanism was found to be unnatural baryon exchange.

Measurement of the Differential Cross-Section and the Spin-Correlation Parameters P,A, and R in the Backward Peak of pi- p --> K0 Lambda at 5-GeV/c

Astbury, P. ; Gallivan, J. ; Jafar, J. ; et al.
Nucl.Phys.B 99 (1975) 30-52, 1975.
Inspire Record 98667 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.31861

We present measurements for the baryon-exchange reaction π − p→ Λ K 0 at 5 GeV/ c over the range − u <2(GeV/ c ) 2 . The differential cross section is obtained from events produced on a liquid hydrogen target. These data are combined with events produced on a butanol polarized target and the parameters P , A , and R are then determined from an analysis of the decay angular distribution of the forward-going Λ. From our data it is possible to determine the magnitudes and the relative phase of the two invariant amplitudes A ′ and B . The consequences for the ratio B / A ′ are discussed in detail.
