Using bubble-chamber data on the reactions π+d→pspπ0π0, π+d→pspπ+π−, and π−p→nπ+π− at 7 GeV/c incident π momentum, π−π phase shifts are determined for 0.6<M(ππ)<1.5 GeV/c2. An I=0S-wave resonance is observed in the f0 peak region of M(ππ). Constructive ρ−ω interference is found in the reaction π+n→pπ+π− and evidence is presented for some specifically deuteron effects in the data with large spectator-proton momentum.

The differential cross section for π ± p elastic scattering below 2 GeV/ c has been measured at small forward pion angles by an electronics experiment. The interference effects observed between the Coulomb and the nuclear interaction have been used to determine the magnitude and sign of the real parts of the π ± p forward scattering amplitude. The latter are compared to the values predicted by the dispersion relations.

The π − p→K 0 λ polarization has been measured at 5 GeV/ c in the range 0<− t <1.4 (GeV/ c ) 2 . The polarization is small for − t ⪅0.4 (GeV/ c ) 2 , becoming negative at the higher values of − t .

A partial-wave analysis of the (K ππ ) 0 system produced in the charge exchange reaction K − p →( K 0 π + π − ) n has been made in the mass range 1.04 ⩽ M (K ππ ) < 1.56 GeV c data at 8, 10 and 16 GeV/ c . It was found that in about 2 3 of the cases, the (K ππ ) 0 system is produced in states of unnatural spin-parity, namely J P = 0 − and 1 + ; the rest is in the natural spin-parity state J P = 2 + state is consistent with being all K ∗ (1420). The unnatural spin-parity states are produced mostly (∼ 80% of the events) by natural parity exchange. The facts that unnatural spin-parity states are produced in this non-diffractive channel, with J P = 1 + dominant, and that the exchange responsible for their production is mostly of natural parity, are similar to what was found for the charged (K ππ ) − system in the diffractive reaction K − p→(K ππ ) − p. However, the absolute value and the energy dependence of the cross sections are very different in the two cases.

By measuring 121 000 2-prong interactions on the Oxford PEPR, we obtained 9 543 events of the type K − p → K − π + n. The cuts to improve the quality of the data and to reduce ambiguities with other final states are described in detail. Strong signals corresponding to the final states K ∗o (890)n and K ∗o (1420)n are observed. The masses and widths of these resonances are determined.

Relative rates for deep inelastic neutrino and antineutrino scattering without a finalstate muon have been measured. For neutrinos the result is Rν=σ(νμ+nucleon→νμ+hadrons)σ(νμ+nucleon→μ−+hadrons)=0.11±0.05. The corresponding ratio for antineutrinos is Rν¯=0.32±0.09.

A mass spectrum of π o π o system in the final state of π − p → π o π o n reaction has been studied at the momenta 20 to 50 GeV/ c . The experiments were performed at the 70 GeV IHEP accelerator. In the mass distribution there has been selected a peak corresponding to f o meson production cross section decreases in the power form with the momentum. The differential cross section follows exponential dependence, exp ( bt ).

In a 48 000-picture exposure of the Fermilab 30-inch hydrogen bubble chamber to a 205 GeV/ c π − beam, we have measured 169 events of the reaction, π − p → π − π + π − p, with a cross section of 635 ± 61 μ b. This reaction proceeds almost entirely via low mass π − → 3 π and p → p ππ dissociation. Factorization is satisfied for p → pππ dissociation in πp and pp interactions.

The charge-exchange cross sections were measured for π − on Li, C, Al and Cu nuclei at momentum 48 GeV/ c . By comparing the data obtained for nuclei with those for hydrogen under the same conditions the effective numbers of protons are defined. The conclusion is made that η 0 mesons are absorbed in nuclei weaker then π 0 . The total cross section of η 0 interactions with the nucleon is determined to be σ tot ( η 0 N) = 15 ± 5 mb in agre ement with the quark model.

The process pn → pp π − is studied in pd collisions at 11.6 GeV/ c . A broad low-mass enhancement of p π − is found in the diffractive reaction pn → p(p π − ) with a cross section slightly smaller than that of a similar analysis at 7.0 GeV/ c . The non-diffractive reaction pn → (p π − )p shows some evidence for resonance production and its cross-section dependence on energy is characteristic of meson exchange. Samples of mass, momentum transfer, and decay angular distributions are compared with the predictions of a double Regge model and a reggeized one-pion exchange model. Using in addition information from the reactions pp → pp π 0 , pp → pn π + at 12.0 GeV/ c , an isospin analysis of the single pion production reaction from nucleon-nucleon scattering, N 1 N 2 → N 3 (N 4 π ) is presented.
