Data were taken at the energy 2 E = 990 MeV to search for multibody events, with the same large solid angle detector which has been used for the measurement of the ϱ , ω and φ production by e + e − annilations. Assuming a π + π − π 0 π 0 production by the quasi two-body process e + e − → ϱ → ωπ 0 we give the correspondi ng cross section σ (e + e − → π + π − π 0 π 0 ) = (1.1 ± 0.5) 10 −32 cm 2 . Since no events with 3 and 4 charged pions have been observed σ (e + e − → π + π − π 0 π − ) ⩽ 1.5 × 10 −33 cm 2 .

The Λ polarization in the reaction γp → K + Λ has been measured using the decay Λ → pπ − as an analyzer. It is found to be large and negative in the momentum transer range 0.2 ⩽ | t | ⩽ 1.0 (GeV/ c ) 2 .

The Λp, Λn, Λ p, and Λ n total cross-sections were measured in the Λ momentum interval 6–21 GeV/ c . Within the experimental uncertainties the cross-sections are momentum-independent in this interval and the momentum-averaged cross-sections are found to be: σ ( Λp ) = 34.6 ± 0.4 mb : σ ( Λn ) = 34.0 ± 0.8 mb ; σ ( Λp ) = 56 ± 11 mb ; σ ( Λn ) = 46 ± 20 mb . The first two results are in agreement with charge symmetry, and with simple quark model sum rules applied to previous results on pp, K - n, and π + p total cross-sections.
NO SIGNIFICANT MOMENTUM DEPENDENCE OVER THIS INTERVAL. 2.8 +- 0.3 MB SHADOWING CORRECTION APPLIED FOR NEUTRON CROSS SECTION.

The spin rotation parameter R has been measured at CERN, for π ± p at 6 GeV c and for π − p at 16 GeV c , with t ranging from −0.19 to −0.51 ( GeV c ) 2 . The parameter A was measured for π − p at 6 GeV c in the interval between t =−0.19 and minus;0.41 ( GeV c ) 2 . The averaged values are the following; R (+6) =−0.08±0.04, R (−6) =−0.23±0.05 and R (−16) =−0.23±0.05. The values obtained for A are close to +1.

It is found in the reactions π ± p →( π ± π + π − )p, believed to be dominated by diffraction dissociation, that the d σ d t′ distributions show a “cross-over” effect at t ′ ≈ 0.15, similar to the effect observed in elastic scattering. This gives evidence for the interference of ( ϱ 0 , B 0 ,…)-exchanges with ( P , f 0 , …) -exchanges in pion diffraction dissociation reactions. No such evidence is found for baryon dissociation, π ± p → π ± (p π + π − ), at the same energy.

A large solid angle detector has been used to observe two body events produced by electron-positron collisions in the Orsay storage ring. From the π + π − excitation curve in the ϱ region we have deduced the amplitude and the phase of the ω-ϱ interference, and the ϱ resonance paramaters: M ϱ = (775.4±7.3) MeV, Γ ϱ = (149.6 ± 23.2) MeV, √ B ( ω → π + π − ) = 0.19 ± 0.05, φ = (85.7 ± 15.3) 0 , σ ( e + e − → ϱ ) = (1.00 ± 0.13) μ b at S = M ϱ 2 , B ( ϱ → e + e − = (4.1 ± 0.5) × 10 −5 , Γ ( ϱ → e + e − ) = (6.1 ± 0.7) keV, ( g ϱ 2 /4 π ) = 2.26 ± 0.25, ( g ϱππ 2 /4 π ) = 2.84 ± 0.50.
STATISTICAL ERRORS ONLY. CROSS SECTION AT RHO0 PEAK IS 1.00 +- 0.13 MUB FROM FIT.
Multihadronic production has been observed at the Adone e + e − storage ring, in the c.m. energy range 1.4 - 2.4 GeV. The cross sections for the reactions e + + e − → 2 π ± + nπ o (1 ⩽ n ⩽ 4) and e + + e − → (4 π ± + nπ ± ) (0 ⩽ n ⩽ 2) have been measured, assuming that the produced particles are only pions with a pure phase space momentum distribution.

The measurements of the transmission regeneration amplitude on hydrogen in the momentum region of 14–42 GeV/ c indicate that in accordance with the Pomeranchuk theorem its magnitude |ƒ° − ƒ °|/k decreases as energy increases and its phase is approximately constant and equal to arg (ƒ° − ƒ °) = (−118 ± 13)° .
THE REGENERATION AMPLITUDE DECREASES OVER THIS ENERGY RANGE.
