We have obtained a sample of 20 465 (2201) events in the channel pp→ ( Λ 0 K + )p at 50 (30) GeV/ c incident momentum with Geneva-Lausanne spectrometer at the CERN SPS. In this analysis we investigate: 1. (i) the production of N ∗ (I = 1 2 ) states in the mass region 1.6 ⩽ M ( Λ 0 K + ) ⩽ 2.6 GeV and momentum transfer 0.06 ⩽ | t | 1.0 (GeV/ c ) 2 , by studing the amplitudes and phases from a moment analysis of the decay angular distribution; 2. (ii) the contribution of the K-exchange Deck model for M ( Λ 0 K + < 2.22 GeV; 3. (iii) the double Regge exchange phenomenology for s Λ 0 K + > 5 GeV 2 and s Λ 0 K + p > 5 GeV 2 .

We have measured in a single experimental setup, the differential cross sections and decay angular distributions of the Y ∗ (1385) produced in the two line-reversed reactions: π + p → K + Y ∗+ (1385) (279 events/ω b ) and K − p → π − Y ∗+ (1385) (190 events/ωb) at 11.5 GeV/ c . The data have been derived from a triggered bubble-chamber experiment using the SLAC Hybrid Facility. We find the differential cross sections and Y ∗ polarizations for the two reactions to be in agreement with exchange-degeneracy predictions, if kinematic differences are taken into account. The Stodolsky-Sakurai and additive quark model predictions are in agreement with the main features of the decay angular distributions of the Y ∗ (1385), except for small violations at low momentum transfer, which can be associated with a finite helicity non-flip contribution in the forward direction.
Axis error includes +- 10/10 contribution.
THESE FINAL DIFFERENTIAL CROSS SECTIONS ARE INCLUDED IN THE RECORD OF J. BALLAM ET AL., PRL 41, 676 (1978).
