Measurements have been made on 753 four-prong events obtained by exposing the Brookhaven National Laboratory 20-in. liquid hydrogen bubble chamber to 2.85-Bev protons. The partial cross sections observed for multiple meson production reactions are: pp+−(p+p→p+p+π++π−), 2.67±0.13; pn++−, 1.15±0.09; pp+−0, 0.74±0.07; d++−, 0.06±0.02; four or more meson production, 0.04±0.02, all in mb. Production of two mesons appears to occur mainly in peripheral collisions with relatively little momentum transfer. In cases of three-meson production, however, the protons are typically deflected at large angles and are more strongly degraded in energy. The 32, 32 pion-nucleon resonance dominates the interaction; there is some indication that one or both of the T=12, pion-nucleon resonances also play a part. The recently discovered resonance in a T=0, three-pion state appears to be present in the pp+−0 reaction. Results are compared with the predictions of the isobaric nucleon model of Sternheimer and Lindenbaum, and with the statistical model of Cerulus and Hagedorn. The cross section for the reaction π0+p→π++π−+p is derived using an expression from the one-pion exchange model of Drell.

K−−p interactions in the Columbia-BNL 30-in. hydrogen bubble chamber were studied at nine momenta from 594 to 820 MeVc. The results for elastic-scattering and zero-prong-plus-V0 events are presented here. Differential cross sections are given for the K−p, K¯0n, and Λπ0 final states. A fit to the K¯N channels was obtained which shows the effects of a 32− resonance at 1701 MeV. This energy is appreciably displaced from the peak in the inelastic cross section.

A measurement of the differential cross section for the reaction n + p → d + π° has been made using a neutron beam with kinetic energies up to 720 MeV. The angle and momentum of the deuterons were measured using an analyzing magnet and wire spark chambers with a magnetostrictive readout. The photons from the decaying π° were not detected. The neutron energy was calculated from the measured deuteron angle and momentum. The cross sections are compared to those for the reaction π + + d ⇆ p + p as a test of isotopic spin invariance in strong interactions. The symmetry of the cross sections about 90° is also investigated, and an upper limit of about 1% is placed on the real part of the ratio of isospin-violating to isospin-conserving amplitudes.

Results are reported on K − -neutron interactions at c.m. energies near 2 GeV. The interactions are dominated by strong production of hyperon resonances, particularly Σ(1385), Λ(1405) and Λ(1520). Production cross sections and angular distributions are given for the Σ(1385), Λ(1405) and Λ(1520) and branching fractions to decay modes observed in the experiment are given for Σ(1385) and Λ(1520). The strong energy dependence of some features of the data suggests that s -channel effects are dominant.

RESONANCE CROSS SECTIONS FOR <K- PI- P> FINAL STATE.
RESONANCE CROSS SECTIONS FOR <AK0 PI- N> FINAL STATE.
A measurement of the differential cross section for the reaction np→ π 0 d has been made at the Lawrence Radiation Laboratory 184-inch cyclotron. A neutron beam with kinetic energies up to 720 MeV was incident on a liquid hydrogen target. The angle and momentum of the deuterons were measured using an analyzing magnet and wire spark chambers with a magnetostrictive readout. Deuterons were separated from protons by time-of-flight. The photons from the decaying π 0 were not detected. The neutron energy was calculated from the measured deuteron angle and momentum.

INCLUDING DATA FROM PREVIOUS WORK OF THIS GROUP.
This paper contains the results of a study of the reaction K−p→Λπ0 in the center-of-mass-system-energy region of 1647 to 1715 MeV. An energy-dependent partial-wave analysis was performed in this channel. Two allowable solutions were obtained. The first solution in this region contains the D13[t=0.08±0.01, Γ(ER)=44±11 MeV, and ER=1671±3 MeV] partial wave as the only resonant amplitude; the second solution contains both the P11[t=0.16±0.01, Γ(ER)=81±10 MeV, and ER=1671±2 MeV] and the D13[t=0.17±0.01, Γ(ER)=76±5 MeV, and ER=1655±2 MeV] partial wave as resonant.
