Measurements have been made of the π ∓ proton total cross sections over the laboratory kinetic energy range 70 to 290 MeV. The absolute accuracy of the data is generally 0.5 %, but decreases to 1 % for some points where applied corrections are large or where low particle fluxes limit the statistical accuracy.

Elastic electron-proton scattering cross sections were measured at backward angles (80°-90°) in the laboratory for four-momentum transfers between 7 F−2 and 45 F−2. Experimental errors range from 3.1% to 5.3%, including a systematic error estimated to be 1.9% added in quadrature. Electric and magnetic form factors are computed from all the recent data in this q2 range, with allowance made for possible normalization differences. The results show a deviation from the scaling law.

Data at two additional π+ momenta (1.28 and 1.41 GeVc) in the reaction π+p→Σ+K+ are presented. Charge independence is tested over the c.m. energy range 1.820 to 2.090 GeV; we used our data for the Σ+K+ channel and published data for the π−p→Σ0K0 and Σ−K+ channels.

The reaction π−+p→Λ+K0 in the 72-in. hydrogen chamber was used to produce 7220 K0 mesons associated with a visible decay Λ→p+π−. The time dependence and absolute yield of the subsequent strong interactions of K0 and K0 in hydrogen were used to determine all the parameters of the neutral K system, without the assumption of CPT invariance or other assumptions about the weak interactions of neutral K's. From the time distribution of 59 events of the type K¯0+p→hyperon, we find the magnitude of the KS0−KL0 mass difference. We then determine the mixing parameters p, q, p′, q′ of the neutral K system by means of the time dependence and absolute yield of 11 charge-exchange events, K0+p→K++n, and the absolute yield of 49 two-body interactions, K¯0+p→hyperon+pion. The results are consistent with CPT invariance and with values of the mixing parameters determined by means of weak interactions. We find the Biswas ratio R≡σ(KLp→KSp)σ(KLp→hyperon) to be R=0.41±0.13 averaged over KL momenta from about 200 to 600 MeVc. This agrees with solution I of Kim and with the results of Kadyk et al. Our absolute yields for K¯0+p→hyperon+pion are in good agreement with the predictions of charge independence and the measured rates for K−+p→hyperon+pion. For the front-back asymmetry of the Λ in K¯0+p→Λ+π+, we find (F−B)(F+B)=−0.48±0.18, indicating that the P wave cannot be neglected relative to the S wave in our momentum range.

We have analyzed the two-prong final states in π+p interactions at 3.9 GeVc. Our result for elastic scattering is σ (elastic) = 6.50±0.1 mb (statistical error only). We find the elastic slope to be 6.61±0.14 (GeVc)−2. We find the elastic forward cross section to be 40.0±1.4 mb(GeVc)2. We have applied a longitudinal-momentum analysis to the one-pion-production channel. We find the cross section for the reaction π++p→π++π0+p to be 2.30±0.06 mb and that for π++p→π++π++n to be 1.45±0.05 mb. For resonance-production cross sections in these channels we find Δ(1236)=0.60±0.07 mb, ρ(760)=0.86±0.06 mb, and diffraction dissociation = 1.69±0.11 mb. We find that we can satisfactorily fit all distributions in the one-pion-production channel without assuming any phase-space production. In the missing-mass channel we observe dominant Δ++(1236) production plus evidence for A2+ production.

Differential cross sections are presented for pion-proton elastic scattering in the angular range −0.6≳cosθc.m.≳−0.98 at 15 incident π+ momenta from 2.18−5.25 GeVc. The angular distributions rise steeply near 180° at all momenta. For laboratory momenta ≳2.75 GeVc they show a minimum at u≈−0.17 (GeVc)2 and a broad maximum near u≈−0.6 (GeVc)2. When the data are plotted versus s, for fixed u, a strong signal from the Δ(2420) resonance is observed. The data are compared with a direct-channel resonance model and with a Regge model which considers the exchange of the Nα, Nγ, and Δδ Regge trajectories. The qualitative success of both the direct-channel resonance model and the Regge model lends support to the concept of duality.

Proton-proton elastic differential cross sections have been measured for incident laboratory momenta of 600-1800 MeVc and c.m. angles of 5°-90°. The data span, in a single experiment, the intermediate energy region from isotropic differential cross sections at lower energies to the development of a clear diffraction peak at higher energies. Parameters for phenomenological formulations derived from the experimental results are presented.
