In an experiment with the CERN 2m deuterium bubble chamber the reaction K + d→K o pp (1) and the related reaction K + n→K o p (2) are studied at an incident momentum of 4.6 GeV/ c . The cross section for the latter reaction is found to be slightly larger than the cross section for the reaction K − p → K o n at the same energy. The corresponding differential cross sections agree within the rather large uncertainties. The forward amplitude for reaction (2) is predominantly real. Moreover, the total and forward differential charge exchange cross section values are compatible with those predicted on the basis of an SU (3) sum rule. A comparison of the K ± -charge exchange differential cross sections with the predictions of a Regge pole model is also presented.

SMALL -T DEUTERIUM CORRECTION APPLIED USING MC GEE WAVE FUNCTION (PAPER ALSO GIVES UNCORRECTED AND HULTHEN CORRECTED DATA).
Data on the inclusive production spectra of K S 0 and Λ from proton-proton collisions at 19 GeV are presented and discussed in connection with the earlier studied inclusive π − production spectrum. The three single-particle spectra are compared with a crude two-center thermal model for the average radiation from the pp collisions.

The total cross sections of 4 He, 6 Li, 7 Li, 9 Be, 12 C and 32 S for positive and negative pions have been measured in the energy range 80 to 260 MeV in a transmission experiment. Coulomb corrections were applied using real parts of the forward nuclear amplitudes as determined from dispersion relations. At the lower energies there remain large residual differences between the π + and π − scattering on the isoscalar nuclei. These can be largely understood in terms of the Coulomb distortion.

We present experimental results on the K + n → K + n differential cross sections measured in deuterium at 13 momenta between 0.64 and 1.51 GeV/ c .
REACTION HAS A SPECTATOR PROTON. WHILE SOME DEUTERIUM CORRECTIONS HAVE BEEN APPLIED, THESE DATA ARE NOT DIVIDED BY THE DEUTERIUM FORM FACTOR APPEARING IN THE IMPULSE APPROXIMATION.
The reaction γp→; π + π − p in the energy range 4.1 to 6.2 GeV has been studied with a tagged photon beam incident on a liquid hydrogen target in the DESY one-meter streamer chamber. The reaction is analysed in terms of the longitudinal phase space (LPS) method. The one-pion-exchange model for Δ(1236) production and decay is examined. For the diffractive part of the LPS a dual model with pomeron exchange is investigated. In particular, the s -channel helicity conservation dual model of Dewey and Humpert describes the data well.

Based on 150 000 photographs taken at the ZGS with the 30 inch deuterium-filled chamber we present an analysis of the elastic p d scattering reaction. Due to unrecoreded small deuteron recoils we were only able to measure the elastic cross section in the four-momentum region | t | > 0.03 (GeV/ c ) 2 . Extrapolation towards small | t | by two different methods gave us two compatible estimates of the total elastic cross section. The differential cross section was analyzed by means of the Glauber formalism both with and without the effects due to the D-wave part of the deuteron wave function. The differential cross sections of np at 5.4 GeV/ c and pn deduced from our data were compared and exhibit a crossover phenomenon.

The target asymmetry T = ( σ ↑ − σ ↓)/( σ ↑ + σ ↓) for the reaction γ p → π + n has been measured at the Bonn 2.5 GeV electron synchrotron for a pion c.m. angle of 40° and γ energies between 0.5 and 2.2 GeV. Butanol was used as the target material. About 35% of the protons could be polarized using the dynamic-polarization method in a continuous-flow cryostat operating at 1°K and 25 kG. The π + mesons were detected in a magnetic-spectrometer system. Considerable structure in the asymmetry was observed.

We have made a study of the coherent reaction K + d → K 0 π + d at 2 GeV/ c , using data obtained in the Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory 25 inch bubble chamber. The cross section for this reaction is 324 ± 25 μ b, after correction for invisible K 0 decays. This reaction is dominated primarily by vector exchange. We determine the parameters of the ω trajectory to be α ω = (0.33 ± 0.04) + t .

We have measured the differential cross sections for the reactions K − p → K 0 n, K − p → Λπ 0 and K − p → Λη , and the Λ polarization distribution for the second reaction, at K − lab momenta of 3.13, 3.30 and 3.59 GeV/ c . The K − p → Λπ 0 polarization is very large: for the combined data in the interval 0.1 < - t < 0.4 GeV 2 , it is 0.98 ± 0.15. The K − p → Λη forward peak is very steep: for the combined data, the slope b in d/d t = a e bt is 16.2 ± 2.3 GeV −2 , whereas it is about 3 GeV −2 for K − p → K 0 n and 5 GeV −2 for K − p → Λπ 0 . There is a dip near t = −0.5 GeV 2 in the K − p → Λη differential cross section , and another near u = −0.3 GeV 2 in the K − p → Λπ 0 differential cross section. The results are compared with predictions of simple models.

The observation of 70 000 K 0 p π + events produced with K + incident momenta of 1.21, 1.29, 1.38 and 1.69 GeV/ c allows a detailed description of the production and decay of the Δ(1236) and K ∗ (892) resonances which dominate the K 0 p π + final state. No striking variations with energy are observed. The associated production of Δ and K ∗ near threshold shows striking similarities with the same production at higher energy.
