In a scintillation-counter experiment, we have observed two narrow, neutral mesons in addition to the well-established η′ (958) in the reaction π−p→M0n at 2.4 GeVc. We observe a mass of 940.5 ± 1.7 MeV, Γ<10.4 MeV for the M0(940), and a mass of 962.9 ± 1.7 MeV, Γ<5.9 MeV for the δ0.
CROSS SECTION OVERALL UNCERTAINTY (APART FROM ETA PRODUCTION) ABOUT 30 PCT.
We present the results on total channel cross-sections obtained in the Saclay 180 l HBC exposed to a separated K− beam at Nimrod. The cross-sections for each channel are given at 13 incident K− momenta between 1.26 and 1.84 GeV/c.

This report concerns itself with the study of four- or five-body final states produced by the interaction of 4.48-GeV/c K− mesons on neutrons. The data result from a 372 000-picture exposure in the Argonne National Laboratory 30-in. deuterium-filled bubble chamber. The reactions studied include (1) K−n→Λπ+π−π−, (2) K−n→Σ0π+π−π−, (3) K−n→Λπ+π−π−π0, (4) K−n→Λπ+π−π−MM, (5) K−n→Λπ−K+K−, and (6) K−n→Λπ−KL0KS0, where all the Λ particles decayed visibly. Evidence is presented for the existence of the Σ(1640) whose mass and width are 1642 ± 12 MeV/c2 and 55 ± 24 MeV/c2, respectively. The branching ratios are found to be consistent with an octet assignment. The A2 data are presented and are compatible with JPC=2++. In addition, the productions of ρ0, ω, and φ0 are discussed in conjunction with simultaneous Σ−(1385) production and the results are compared with quark-model predictions.

We report a search for quasistable particles with anomalous charge or large mass produced by the interaction of 300-GeV protons at the National Accelerator Laboratory. Analyses of energy losses in a counter telescope lead to cross-section limits of 10−35 cm2 for particles with charges of e3 and 2e3 and 5×10−31 cm2 for charge-4e3 particles. Time-of-flight measurements gave cross-section limits of about 10−31 cm2 for the production of massive charged particles.

We observe an energy-dependent polarization of the Σ+ produced in the reaction π+n→K0Σ+ at incident beam momenta between 1.1 and 2.4 GeV/c. These data form a significant source of information on the Σ− polarization in the charge-symmetric reaction π−p→K+Σ−.

We have studied η′ production using a π+ beam incident on deuterium in the 72-in. bubble chamber, with beam momenta from 1.1 to 2.4 GeVc. Cross sections for reactions leading to five- and six-pronged final states are presented. We observe η′ production in the reaction π+d→ppη′, with the decay mode η′→π+π−η. The cross section for π+n→pη′ (studied in the impulse approximation) is observed to rise to a maximum of about 100 μb at 2.2-GeV c.m. energy. The production angular distribution develops peripheral peaking with increasing energy.

AVERAGED OVER ALL PRODUCTION ANGLES.
We have determined the pion charge exchange cross section on hydrogen for π ° mesons emitted at 180° by measuring neutron time-of-flight. Using known values of the p-wave phase shifts we have deduced the contribution of the s-wave. We obtain a value for the quantity a 1 − a 3 (in h = c = m =1 units where m is the pion mass) =0.270±0.014 in agreement within the errors with recent theoretical calculations. We also find a value of 114±55 μb / sr for the cross section in the center of mass system for radiative pion capture at 22.6 MeV (gamma ray emitted at 180°).
