Evidence for the backward production of the B(1235) meson in the final state π+p→pfπ+ω at 11.46 GeV/c with σ(|u′|<1.5 GeV2)=1.28±0.26 μb is presented. When nucleon exchange is assumed to dominate, estimates for the SU(3) mixing parameter FD as well as the B coupling to the nucleon-antinucleon are given. Some indication of a narrow enhancement at M(π+ω)≃1.03 GeV/c2 is seen, but confirmation of this as a resonant state is not yet possible.

An investigation has been performed of some properties of Σ(1660) produced in the reaction K−p→Σ+(1660)π− at 2.87 GeV/c incident K− momentum. The decay modes observed for this state include Λ(1405)π and Σπ. The spin and parity are measured to be JP=32−. The differential cross section of the Λ(1405)π decay mode is sharply peaked in the forward direction, falling exponentially with a slope of 5.6 ± 0.7 (GeV/c)−2, while the slope for the Σ0π+ decay mode is 2.1 ± 0.4 (GeV/c)−2. The difference in the ratio of backward to total events for the two decay modes also suggests that two Σ(1660)'s exist.
