Polarization of Λ hyperons and differential cross sections for the reaction γ+p→K++Λ were measured at the K+-meson center-of-mass angles around 45°, 70°, and 90° for the incident photon energies of 1054, 1100, and 1160 MeV. The K+ mesons were detected with a magnetic spectrometer and a velocity-selection system based on the energy loss and the time of flight. The polarization of Λ was determined by measuring the up-down asymmetry of protons in the decay Λ→pπ− with respect to the production plane. The results show a dominant sinθK* dependence of the polarization at the region of the third resonance and are consistent with a contribution of the P11 resonance with a mass of about 1700 MeV.

We report the results of the investigation of 18 500 frames of π+p interactions in the Brookhaven 20-in. bubble chamber at an incident energy of 900 MeV. It is found that single-pion production proceeds almost entirely through formation of the N33* isobar. The production mechanism of the N33* is analyzed in terms of its spin density matrix. Comparison is made with Stodolsky and Sakurai's ρ-exchange model and with the absorptive peripheral model.

pi--p Elastic Scattering at 310 MeV: Differential Cross Section and Recoil-Proton Polarization

The differential cross section and recoil-proton polarization in π−−p elastic scattering at 310-MeV incident-pion energy has been measured. The differential cross section was measured at 28 angles in the angular region 25<~θlab<~160 deg. The fractional rms errors were typically 3%. The reaction was observed by counting the scattered pions emerging from a liquid-hydrogen target with a counter telescope consisting of scintillation and Čerenkov counters. Simultaneously, the recoil-proton polarization was measured at four angles in the angular region 114<θc.m.<146 deg. The recoil protons from the liquid-hydrogen target were scattered from a carbon target and the left-right asymmetry was measured. Scintillation counters were used throughout to detect the particles.
