We report measurements of the polarization parameters in π+p and π−p elastic scattering at an incident momentum of 100 GeV/c. The results cover the range 0.18<~−t<~1.4 GeV2 and are in agreement with current Regge-model predictions.

We present high-statistics data on differential cross sections and density matrix elements for K*±(890) production obtained in a 13-Gev/c SLAC experiment. The most remarkable features of the data are the dominance of natural-parity exchange and significant differences between K*+ and K*− production by natural-parity isoscalar exchange. We present two exchange models which successfully describe this difference, as well as the overall t dependence: model A including Pomeron plus strongly exchange-degenerate Regge poles and model B involving broken exchange degeneracy for the f and ω exchanges. These two phenomenological models lead to different predictions for the energy dependence of K*± production, for the relative K*(1420)K*(890) production rate, and for the SU(3)-related ρ± production processes.

Antiproton-proton total elastic cross sections at 21 incident momenta in the range 0.69 to 2.43 GeV/ c have been deduced by combining p̄p elastic differential cross sections over a c.m. angular range −0.95 ⩽ cos θ ∗ ⩽ 0.93 with forward elastic cross sections derived from recent real-part measurements and p̄p total cross sections. Two bumps are observed, at M 1 ⋍ 2.155 and M 2 ⋍ 2.345 GeV /c 2 , having widths of Г 1 ∼ 0.135 and Г 2 ∼ 0.135 GeV /c 2 . Corresponding structures in other p̄p reaction channels are discussed.
Axis error includes +- 4/4 contribution.
We have measured the charge-exchange reaction pp → (p π + ) (p π − ) at s = 23, 31, 45, 53, and 63 GeV at the ISR, using the Split Field Magnet detector. The data are characterized by a sharp forward peak of width 0.02 (GeV/ c ) 2 , followed by a much gentler slope at higher | t |; sizeable Δ ++ , Δ 0 , and N 0 production is observed in the (Nπ) mass spectra. Two different components are present in the data following power-law energy dependence of the type p lab − n with n 1 = −1.63 ± 0.13 and n 2 = −0.96 ± 0.07, respectively, indicating the onset of mechanisms in competition with pion exchange at ISR energies.
CHARGE EXCHANGE DOUBLE DIFFRACTION DISSOCIATION OF PROTONS. DEL++, DEL0, N(1520)0 AND N(1688)0 RESONANCES IDENTIFIED IN PROTON-PION MASS SPECTRA.
We report results on a new measurement of the double diffractive reaction pp → (p π + π − ) (p π + π − ) at the ISR obtained with the Split Field Magnet detector. Experimental procedures and data analysis are discussed in detail. The cross section measured at the five standard ISR energies exhibits an increase of (55 ± 7)% in the s -range from 549 to 3892 GeV 2 .
DOUBLE DIFFRACTION DISSOCIATION OF PROTONS.
n p annihilations with ⩾ 3 prongs with an incident antineutron momentum between 0.5 and 0.8 GeV/ c are analysed. We present the topological branching ratios and cross sections, the resonance production rates and possible ϱ-ω interference effects.
CHANNEL FRACTIONS IN <2PI+ PI- PI0> FINAL STATE.
Data on the reaction π − p → π + π − π 0 have been taken at 12 and 15 GeV/ c with the CERN Omega multiparticle spectrometer. In a 3-pion partial-wave analysis strong production of A 2 0 (1310) and ω ∗ (1675) is observed. Total and differential cross sections are determined and density matrix elements presented as a function of t in the t - and s -channel frames. The energy dependence of A 2 0 production is studied, and a comparison of ω(780), A 2 0 (1310) and ω ∗ (1675) production is made.

Data on coherent elastic and inelastic deuteron-proton scattering are presented. The measurements were made at the CERN ISR with a single arm spectrometer, at s = 2800 GeV 2 and momentum transfer squared (− t ) in the range 0.15 to 0.42 GeV 2 . The data are compared with elastic and inelastic diffractive proton-proton scattering data taken with the same apparatus at the same s and t values. The t dependence of the elastic dp → dp differential cross section is compared to simple predictions based on Glauber theory. The differential cross sections for pp → pX and dp → dX are also compared for M X 2 → 280 GeV 2 , where M X denotes the mass of system X recoiling against the measured proton and deuteron.

INVARIANT AND SINGLE DIFFRACTIVE INCLUSIVE DIFFERENTIAL CROSS SECTIONS.
We present results from an experiment studying the production of single particles and jets (groups of particles) with high p ⊥ (transverse momentum) in 200 GeV/ c interactions on a beryllium target. We give a detailed discussion of the ambiguities in the jet definition. The jet and single-particle cross sections have a similar shape but the jet cross section is over two orders of magnitude larger. The events show evidence for the coplanar structure suggested by constituent models, and the momentum distributions of charged particles give strong support to a simple quark-quark scattering model.

New experimental results on the reactions K L 0 p→K S 0 p, Λπ + , Σ 0 π + andΛπ + π 0 at c.m. energies between 1.54 and 1.71 GeV are presented. This experiment has a statistical accuracy comparable with or greater than corresponding K − p and K − d experiments in the same energy range and a comparison with the data from these different types of experiments has been made. A search has been made for narrow states with masses in the region of 1.58 GeV.
