The backward production of the B(1235) meson is studied in the reaction K − p → Σ − π + ω . This reaction is observed in the final state Σ − π + π + π − π 0 . A π + ω mass enhancement is visible in the region of the B meson for events with small | u |K − → Σ − ) squared four-momentum transfer. The properties of the enhancement agree with those of the B meson. The cross section for K − p → Σ − B + at 4.15 GeV c incident K − momentum is (3.2 ± 0.5) μb . The backward production of the B meson is compared with similar baryon exchange productions of the A 1 and C(Q 1 ) axial vector mesons observed in the same experiment.

A ( K π π ) + mass enhancement is observed in the reactions K − p → Ξ −K o + π + π o − when events with a small (K − → Ξ − ) four momentum transfer squared are selected. The signal is also visible in the reaction K − p → Ξ − π + + neutrals. The enhancement, centered at 1.28 GeV, is seen to decay preferentially into Kϱ with spin-parity J P = 1 + . The cross section for K − p→ Ξ − C + (1.28) with C + → K ϱ at 4.15 GeV/c incident K − momentum is (6.2 ± 0.6) μ b.

A spin-parity 1 + ϱπ enhancement is observed for the 3π mass spectrum in the reaction K − p → Σ − π + π + π − where events with a small (K − → Σ − ) momentum transfer are selected. The mass (1040 MeV) and width (230 MeV) of this enhancement are reminiscent of the A 1 → ϱπ bump which has mainly been observed in the diffractive-like processes. The cross section for this enhancement at 4.15 GeV/ c incident K − momentum is (3.6 ± 0.5) μ b.

Using a high statistics sample of K − p interactions at 4.2 GeV/ c , the production and decay properties of the Ξ ∗ (1820) are discussed. The mass and width are found to be M = (1823 ± 2) MeV and Γ = (21 ± 7) MeV. Evidence is found for Ξ ∗ (2030) in the Σ K ̄ channel and for a new Ξ ∗ at a mass of 2120 MeV in the ΛK − channel.
