The reactionsπ−p→K0∑0(1385) andπ−p→K+∑−(1385) are studied at an incident momentum of 3.95 GeV/c using data from a high statistics bubble chamber experiment corresponding to approximately 90 events/μb. The total and differential cross sections and the density matrix elements of the Σ(1385) are presented. The results are compared with those obtained for the related processesπpp→K+∑+(1385) and\(K^ -p \to \pi ^ \mp\sum ^ \pm(1385)\) in this energy range. Evidence is presented for the existence of production mechanisms with exotic exchanges in thet channel.

We have determined the coherent KS regeneration amplitudes on various nuclei, from 20 to 140 GeV/c, using a particularly systematics-free technique. Our results are well represented by |(f−f¯)k|=2.23A0.758p−0.614 mb. This p dependence corresponds to an effective "nuclear" intercept ``αω(0)''=0.386±0.009, whereas the elementary value is αω(0)=0.44±0.01. Comparisons are made with data below 25 GeV/c, and with optical-model predictions. The latter work only if "αω(0)" is postulated to hold for the elementary amplitudes.

The energy dependence of the modulus and phase of the K L 0 -K S 0 regeneration amplitude on hydrogen in the range of 14–50 GeV has been investigated at the Serpukhov 70 GeV accelerator. It has been established that the modulus of the modified regeneration amplitude decreases with increasing momentum as 2|ƒ 21 0 (p)|/k = (0.84 ± 0.42) · p −0.50±0.15 mb . The amplitude phase is energy-independent and its mean value is ϕ 21 0 = −132° ± 5°. The results obtained are compared with other experiments and with predictions of different theoretical models.

The modulus and the phase of the K L o −K S o regeneration amplitude on carbon have been measured. In a momentum range of 16–40 GeV/ c the phase is constant within experimental error bars and coincides with the regeneration phase on hydrogen. Both the modulus and the phase of the regeneration amplitude on carbon are in agreement with optical model predictions.
ASSUMING A CONSTANT PHASE INDEPENDENT OF MOMENTUM, THE CARBON REGENERATION AMPLITUDE HAS A PHASE OF -130 +- 17 DEG.
The amplitude and phase for coherent regeneration in hydrogen and deuterium have been measured for six momentum bins in the range 3.5-10.5 GeV/c. Over this region the phase, ϕf, is consistent with being constant and has the value - 60°±8° for hydrogen and - 46°±8° for deuterium. Power-law fits of the form plabn for the amplitudes when combined with other data give n=−0.60±0.02 for hydrogen and n=−0.52±0.02 for deuterium.

The magnitude of |f21(0)|, the coherent K0 regeneration amplitude in Cu, has been measured for K momenta from 600 to 1400 MeVc. Results are compared with predictions of an optical model using forward dispersion relation predictions for real parts of kaon-nucleon scattering amplitudes.
