We have used an optical spark-chamber spectrometer to perform a systematic study of the reaction π−p→ΛK0 at beam momenta between 930 and 1130 MeV/c. The cross section, angular distribution, and Λ polarization have been measured. We present our complete data from a sample of 11 400 events along with Legendre polynomial coefficients for the angular distributions. No striking cross-section enhancement at ΣK threshold is observed, but there is evidence for a small cusp effect. A simple model which takes account of the ΣK channel provides a good fit to our data.

We have measured the differential cross sections for the reactions K − p → K 0 n, K − p → Λπ 0 and K − p → Λη , and the Λ polarization distribution for the second reaction, at K − lab momenta of 3.13, 3.30 and 3.59 GeV/ c . The K − p → Λπ 0 polarization is very large: for the combined data in the interval 0.1 < - t < 0.4 GeV 2 , it is 0.98 ± 0.15. The K − p → Λη forward peak is very steep: for the combined data, the slope b in d/d t = a e bt is 16.2 ± 2.3 GeV −2 , whereas it is about 3 GeV −2 for K − p → K 0 n and 5 GeV −2 for K − p → Λπ 0 . There is a dip near t = −0.5 GeV 2 in the K − p → Λη differential cross section , and another near u = −0.3 GeV 2 in the K − p → Λπ 0 differential cross section. The results are compared with predictions of simple models.

Study of the reactions pi+ p ---> k+ sigma+ and pi+ p ---> k+ y*+(1385) between 3.5 and 14 gev/c

Measurements of the differential cross section for the reactions π+p→K+Σ+ and π+p→K+Y*+(1385) are reported at 3.5, 3.75, 4.0, 4.25, 4.5, 4.75, 5.0, 6.0, 10.0, and 14.0 GeV/c. Polarization in π+p→K+Σ+ is also reported at 6.0, 10.0, and 14.0 GeV/c. At small |t|, the cross section for π+p→K+Σ+ is well described by an exponential Aebt with slopes in the range b≈8−10 (GeV/c)−2; for |t|>0.5 (GeV/c)2 this slope decreases considerably. The cross section for π+p→K+Y*+(1385) is well described for |t|>0.2 (GeV/c)2 by a single exponential of slope about half that for π+p→K+Σ+; there is no break near |t|>0.5 (GeV/c)2. We observe a dip in this cross section near t=0. The polarization in π+p→K+Σ+ is consistent with zero for |t|<0.4 (GeV/c)2 and becomes large and positive for larger |t|.
