Backward scattering in the reaction KL0p→pKS0 is studied in the momentum interval 1.0 to 7.5 GeV/c. Comparison of KL0p→pKS0 and K+p→pK+ backward scattering, where respectively Σ exchange and Λ plus Σ exchange can contribute in the u channel, reveals that dσdΩ180°(KL0p→pKS0dσdΩ180°(K+p→pK+) above the resonance region. This result provides direct evidence for the dominance of the Λ contribution over the Σ contribution in the K+p→pK+ production amplitude.

Angular distributions are presented for p¯−p elastic scattering at 8 and 16 GeV/c for |t|<1.3 (GeV/c)2. At both energies there is structure in the differential cross sections in the region 0.5<~|t|<~1.0 (GeV/c)2, similar to that observed at lower energies. The diffraction peak continues to expand with increasing incident momentum.
