Phys.Lett.B 56 (1975) 408-412, 1975.
Inspire Record 98876 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.27859

The reaction γ + p → Φ + p has been measured using a spark chamber spectrometer and a tagged photon beam in the energy range from 4.6 to 6.7 GeV. Approximately 3500 photoproduced elastic Φ-events have been collected in the t -range between t min and t = −0.4 (GeV/ c ) 2 . Cross sections and t -distributions are presented.

Study of the Energy and Charged Multiplicity Dependence of Inclusive pi- Production in pi- p Interactions Up to Fermilab Energies

Morris, W. ; Oh, B.Y. ; Parker, D.L. ; et al.
Phys.Lett.B 56 (1975) 395-399, 1975.
Inspire Record 2113 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.27878

Using new data from 100 GeV c π − interactions, we find the energy dependence of the invariant cross-section in the target fragmentation (central) region to be consistent with an A + Bs − 1 2 (C + Ds − 1 4 ) behavior. The leading particle peak near x = + 1 exhibits a width in x which becomes smaller with increasing energy and an integrated cross section which is approximately energy independent.

Results are presented on the topological cross sections obtained for antiproton-proton interactions from an exposure of the Fermilab 30-inch bubble chamber to a 100 GeV/ c negative beam enriched in p 's. The p p inelastic cross section is found to be σ inel = 34.6 ± 0.4 mb, and the average inelastic charged particle multiplicity to be 〈 n 〉 = 6.74 ± 0.05.

Backward Production in pi- p --> p pi+ pi- pi- at 8-GeV/c

We have studied backward baryon and meson production in π−p→pπ+π−π− at 8.0 GeV/c using a streamer chamber triggered by the detection of a fast forward proton. Our data sample (1227 events) displays prominent N*ρ and N*f quasi-two-body production. These states are investigated with regard to the peripheral nature of the production mechanism and sequential decay of the excited baryon and meson systems. The quasi-two-body production of N*ρ and N*f intermediate states is consistent with u-channel proton exchange as the dominant production mechanism. In the π+π−π− mass distribution we observe a 3- to 4- standard-deviation enhancement at M3π=1897±17 MeV/c2 with full width at half maximum = 110 ± 82 MeV/c2, but find no but find no evidence for backward A1 or A2 production. We observe Δ++(1232) production in the pπ+ effective mass distribution.

Search for xi* Resonances in 2.87-GeV/c K- n Interactions

Inspire Record 99862 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.24850

We report on a search for Ξ* production in the mass range 1.5-2.0 GeV / c2 in K−n interactions at 2.87 GeV / c. Upper limits on Ξ* production cross sections, as well as reaction cross sections for those final states in which Ξ*'s may be observed, are presented. In particular, an upper limit of 5.4 μb is placed on production of an isospin-−32 Ξ*−−.

Comparison of Neutral Particle Production in 100 GeV/c $\bar{p}p$ and pp Interactions.

Phys.Lett.B 62 (1976) 237-240, 1976.
Inspire Record 112616 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.5528

We derive cross-sections for the inclusive productiion in p̄p interactions at 100 GeV /c of π 0 , K S 0 and Λ 0 Λ 0 of 91.5±5.7 mb, 5.2±0.4 mb and 4.8±0.4 mb respectively, which are all higher than pp cross-sections at energy. We find indications that these differences can be attributed to “annihilation” processes.

The Inclusive Reactions $p + n \to p + X$ and $\pi^+ + n \to p + X$ at 100-GeV/c

Hanlon, J. ; Brody, A. ; Engelmann, R. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.Lett. 37 (1976) 967, 1976.
Inspire Record 108156 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.21040

We have measured the inclusive cross section for the reactions p+n→p+X and π++n→p+X at 100 GeV/c in the kinematic region |t|<1.0 GeV2. The data were obtained from an exposure of the Fermilab 30-in. deuterium-filled bubble chamber to a tagged positively charged beam. The differential cross sections for these reactions are observed to scale in the ratio of the pn and π+n total cross sections and to be consistent with the predictions of a Reggeized one-pion-exchange model.

High Statistics Investigation of K0 K- Decay of a2- Produced by 23-GeV/c pi- on Hydrogen

Margulies, M. ; Kramer, M.A. ; Foley, K.J. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.D 14 (1976) 667, 1976.
Inspire Record 3806 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.24780

We present the results of an experiment to study the reaction π−p→A2−p, A2−→KS0K− at 22.4 and 23.9 GeV/c. We have 3346 KS0K− events in the effective mass region 1.1 to 1.5 GeV, and covering the |t′| interval 0.0 to 1.0 (GeV/c)2. Because of the low background in this channel, we are able to study various |t′| regions, including the region 0.2 to 0.29 (GeV/c)2 in which the original split A2 peak was observed. We find no substructure in any region. We have also derived differential and total cross sections. The differential cross sections are well fitted by the form dσdt′=At′ebt′ with b≈7.0 (GeV/c)−2. The total cross section is in good agreement with the value derived from other experiments that measure the A2−→ρ0π− decay mode.

Omega Meson Photoproduction from Deuterium

Morris, J.V. ; Brodbeck, T.J. ; Coddington, P. ; et al.

Measurements are presented of the cross sections for ω meson photoproduction from deuterium at an average photon energy of 3.9 GeV. The cross section for the coherent process γ d → d ω is found to be 1.4 ± 0.5 μ b and that for the incoherent process γ d → np ω is 3.3 ± 0.7 μ b. The forward differential cross section for γ d → d ω is estimated to be (d σ /d t ) t =0 = 54 ± 20 μ b/GeV 2 . This result indicates that the value of the A 2 exchange amplitude in ω photoproduction from hydrogen is less than that predicted from the measurements of the difference between the total hadron photoproduction cross sections from neutrons and protons. We note that the world data tend to show that the A 2 exchange amplitude is more consistent with zero than with the value needed to explain these differences. Measurements are also presented of the ratio of the coupling constants of the photon to the ϱ and ω mesons which tend to favour the vector dominance model proposed by Das, Mathur and Okubo with exact SU(3) symmetry at infinite energies.

Properties of Inclusive Hadron Spectra in Muon Nucleon Scattering at 150-GeV/c

Anderson, H.L. ; Bharadwaj, V.K. ; Booth, N.E. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.Lett. 36 (1976) 1422, 1976.
Inspire Record 3759 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.3268

We have studied muon-produced hadrons from a deuterium target. The structure functions and the charge ratios are reported for neutrons; the transverse momentum and azimuthal distributions are reported for deuterons. The structure function for the neutron is similar to that of the proton. The charge ratio of produced hadrons follows the expectation of a simple spin-½ quark model. Transverse-momentum results agree with those at lower energy and are similar to those from hadron-hadron interactions. No azimuthal anisotropy is seen.
