Measurements have been made of pi+ absorption on He3 at T_pi+ = 118, 162, and 239 MeV using the Large Acceptance Detector System (LADS). The nearly 4pi solid angle coverage of this detector minimizes uncertainties associated with extrapolations over unmeasured regions of phase space. The total absorption cross section is reported. In addition, the total cross section is divided into components in which only two or all three nucleons play a significant role in the process. These are the first direct measurements of the total and three nucleon absorption cross sections.

In the very heavy collision system Au197+197Au the K+ production process was studied as a function of impact parameter at 1 GeV/nucleon, a beam energy well below the free N-N threshold. The K+ multiplicity increases more than linearly with the number of participant nucleons and the K+/π+ ratio rises significantly when going from peripheral to central collisions. The measured K+ double differential cross section is enhanced by a factor of 6 compared to microscopic transport calculations if secondary processes (ΔN→KΛN and ΔΔ→KΛN) are ignored.

The total K+ cross section is determined by extrapolating and integrating the double differential cross section d2(sig)/d(p)/d(omega) over momentum and solid angle.
The absolute value of the π 0 photoproduction cross section on the proton recently measured near threshold enables to reanalyze previous data collected on 2 H, 3 He, and 4 He relatively to the proton. Absolute cross sections are presented for these nuclei in the energy region extending up to 10 MeV above threshold. The threshold s-wave amplitudes for 2 H and 3 He thus obtained are discussed in relation with the neutron threshold amplitude E ( nπ 0 ) 0+ value.

Data on p p annihilations at rest into K 1 0 K 1 0 ω 0 and K + K − ω 0 are discuss New measurements for the mass, the width and the branching ratio of the ω 0 are presented. Evidence for quasi two-body annihilations p p → ϕπ, p ̄ p → S ∗ π is discussed.
