Helicity conservation in the reaction π − p → pA 1 at 4.45 GeV/ c has been studied using 50 cm and 55 cm liquid hydrogen bubble chambers. In the Jackson and the helicity frames the dependence of the ϱ matrix elements on the four-momentum transfer squared to the proton ( t ) for A 1 maximum decay has been calculated. The obtained data are in a good agreement with t -channel helicity conservation. The t -channel dependence of the ϱ matrix elements in the mentioned frames is in good agreement with that calculated using the Regge π-pole exchange model (it is suggested that the A 1 maximum nature is explained by a kinematical effect of the Deck type).

An investigation has been performed of some properties of Σ(1660) produced in the reaction K−p→Σ+(1660)π− at 2.87 GeV/c incident K− momentum. The decay modes observed for this state include Λ(1405)π and Σπ. The spin and parity are measured to be JP=32−. The differential cross section of the Λ(1405)π decay mode is sharply peaked in the forward direction, falling exponentially with a slope of 5.6 ± 0.7 (GeV/c)−2, while the slope for the Σ0π+ decay mode is 2.1 ± 0.4 (GeV/c)−2. The difference in the ratio of backward to total events for the two decay modes also suggests that two Σ(1660)'s exist.

The backward angular distributions obtained in an experiment at the Zero Gradient Synchrotron of Argonne National Laboratory were used to systematically study the energy dependence of the 180° differential cross section for π+p elastic scattering in the center-of-mass energy region from 2159 to 3487 MeV. At each of 38 incident pion momenta between 2.0 and 6.0 GeV/c, a focusing spectrometer and scintillation counter hodoscopes were used to obtain differential cross sections for typically five pion scattering angles from 141° to 173° in the laboratory. Values for dσdΩ at 180° were then obtained by extrapolation. A resonance model and an interference model were used to perform fits to the energy dependence of dσdΩ (180°). Both models led to good fits to our data and yielded values for the masses, widths, parities, and the product of spin and elasticity for the Δ(2200), Δ(2420), Δ(2850), and Δ(3230) resonances. Our data confirm the existence of the Δ(3230) and require the negative-parity Δ(2200).

Results are presented for the reactions (1) π+n→pπ+π−, (2) π+n→pπ+π−π0, at an incident pion beam momentum of 11.7 GeV/c. Both reactions show considerable resonance production. Reaction (1) is dominated by ρ0 and f0 production and there is evidence for the variation of the ρ00 width with momentum transfer. Decay angular distributions are presented for the dipion system observed in reaction (1). Reaction (2) shows the production of both dipion and tripion resonances and there is evidence for the associated production of\(\mathcal{N}\)-resonances with the dipion resonances.

The differential cross section for π±, K±, and p± on hydrogen have been measured in the range 0.07<−t<1.6 (GeV/c)2. The dependence on momentum, momentum, transfer, and particle type are discussed.

The elastic differential cross section for pp scattering has been measured up to a momentum transfer of ‖ t ‖ = 3(GeV/ c ) 2 at 100 GeV/c and 200 GeV/c incident momenta. The 200 GeV/ c measurements shows a diffractive like dip at ‖ t ‖ = 1.5 GeV/ c while no such dip is seen in the 100 GeV/ c data.

The two coherent reactions π+d → dπ+π+π− and π+d → → dπ+π+π+π0 are studied in the 2 m DBC at the incoming momentum of 11.7 GeV/c. The production cross-sections are measured:σ=(0.37±±0.06) mb andσ=(0.24±0.05) mb respectively. The two reactions are analysed in the different LPS configurations. The dσ/dt′ distribution for the two reactions displays the same exp[−At′] shape withA⋍37 (GeV/c)−2 in both cases, thus indicating that the differential cross-sections are dominated by the deuteron form factor. The coherent inclastic interaction contains the channel π+d → θ0π+d with a cross-sectionσ==(20±5) µb and a signal for the B+-meson of about 12 µb. The four-pion masses display structures below 2 GeV/c.

Elastic scattering of hadrons on protons has been measured at momenta of 50, 100, and 200 GeV/c. The meson-proton scattering is found to be independent of momentum and meson type for −t>0.8 (GeV/c)2. The momentum dependence of the pp dip at −t=1.4 (GeV/c)2 was investigated. Slope parameters are given.

Angular distributions for π+p→π+p were measured for 13 incident-pion momenta from 4.4 to 6.0 GeV/c and for −t less than ∼0.1 (GeV/c)2. This experiment was performed at the Zero Gradient Synchrotron of Argonne National Laboratory, where a focusing magnetic spectrometer and a scintillation-counter hodoscope were used. In fitting the angular distributions the strong-interaction contribution was parameterized by an exponential form exp(bt); the Coulomb interference was also included. The resulting values of the slope parameter for |t|<∼0.1 (GeV/c)2 are presented for each incident beam momentum.

Evidence is presented for production of Ξ* resonances, decaying into Ξπ, Ξ(1530)π, ΛK¯, and ΣK¯, in K−p interactions at 2.87 Gev/c. The data represent final combined results from a 30-events/μb hydrogen exposure and an 18-events/μb exposure in deuterium designed to study Ξ* production in the mass interval 1.46-2.07 GeV/c2. In addition to Ξ(1820) and Ξ(1940), signals have been observed at masses of 1630 MeV/c2 and 1860 MeV/c2 decaying into Ξ−π+ and YK¯, respectively. Reaction cross sections have been measured for all final states containing two visible signs of strangeness, and for the final states ΛK−K+ and Σ0K−K+.
