We report results on inclusive direct photon ( γ ), π 0 , and η production in both pp and p̄p interactions at s =24.3 GeV in the transverse momentum range 4.1≤ p T ≤7.7 GeV/ c and rapidity range −0.1≤ y ≤0.9. The data were collected between 1988 and 1990 by the UA6 experiment at CERN, which employed an internal H 2 gas jet target in the Sp̄pS collider. The inclusive direct photon cross sections and the cross section difference σ( p p )−σ( pp ) expressed as functions of p T ( γ ) are compared with next-to-leading order QCD predictions.

We report on a study of inclusiveπ0 and η meson production inπ+p andK+p interactions at 250 GeV/c beam momentum. The Feynman-x spectrum ofπ0 is very similar in shape and normalization to that of negatively charged particles produced in the same experiment. The results are compared with data at other energies and with FRITIOF model predictions. This model overestimates the η cross section by a factor of 2.5. It reproduces theπ0 cross section correctly, but predicts a too hardπ0x distribution.

We present data on the production of the baryons Λ,\(\bar \Lambda \),p and of the baryon resonances Σ*+ (1385) and Δ++ (1232) inK+p and π+p interactions at 250 GeV/c. Results are given on total and semi-inclusive cross sections, Feynman-x spectra, transverse momentum distributions and Λ polarization. The data are compared with measurements at lower energies, with deep inclastic lepton nucleon data and with predictions of quark-parton models. The models underestimate Λ production in the central c.m. region, a feature also seen in recent heavy-ion data. This failure can be cured in JETSET 6.3 by adjustment of the di-quark break-up probability.
