About 15 000 K − Φp events have been collected in the CERN Ω′ spectrometer. A partial-wave decomposition of the K − Φ system is performed. The 1 + SO + wave is dominant. The 0 − P0 + and 2 − P0 + waves are important and show resonant behaviour at ∼ 1.83 GeV (Γ ∼ 0.25 GeV) and ∼ 1.73 GeV (Γ ∼ 0.22 GeV) respectively. The first one can be interpreted as the second radial excitation of the kaon while the second one can be identified as one of the two L mesons.

The dissociation of a K− into the K−ϕ system is studied at 8.25 GeV/c. The cross-section for K−ϕp production is (27±2) μb. All the expected properties of diffraction are found (mass spectrum, mass-slope correlation, 1+S wave dominance). There is also an indication of the Kϕ decay mode of a 2− resonance in theL region.
