The elementary ¯p-neutron amplitude has been obtained from Glauber's model analysis of ¯p-d elastic scattering data at 600 MeV/c, taking into account theD-state component of the deuteron. The results are compared with the ¯p-nucleus analysis and the ¯NN potential model predictions.

Antiproton induced fission probabilities of U238, Bi209, Pb208 and Au177 are reported together with the mass distribution of the fission fragments in the U238 and Bi209 cases. The charged particles multiplicities observed in co-incidence with fission have, also, been measured for U and Bi and are presented.

Distributions of event shape variables obtained from 120600 hadronicZ decays measured with the DELPHI detector are compared to the predictions of QCD based event generators. Values of the strong coupling constant αs are derived as a function of the renormalization scale from a quantitative analysis of eight hadronic distributions. The final result, αs(MZ), is based on second order perturbation theory and uses two hadronization corrections, one computed with a parton shower model and the other with a QCD matrix element model.

An estimate of the temperature of protons andπ− mesons in central He−Li, He−C, C−C, C−Ne, C−Cu, C−Pb, O−Pb, Mg−Mg interactions is presented. The results indicate an increase of the proton temperature with increasing mass numbers of projectile and target nuclei (Ap,AT) fromTp=(118±3) MeV for He−Li toTp=(141±2) MeV for C−Pb. The temperature ofπ− mesons does not depend onAP,AT andTπ≃95 MeV. A satisfactory fit forπ− mesons in C−Cu, C−Pb, O−Pb, Mg−Mg collisions can be achieved by using a form involving two temperatures,T1 andT2. The relative yield of the high temperature component (T2) is ≅24% for C−Cu, C−Pb, and Mg−Mg interactions. The observed results forTP in C−Ne, C−Cu and C−Pb collisions are consistent with the prediction of the thermodynamic hagedorn model.

The process γγ→π+π− was measured using the detector MD-1 at VEPP-4. The two-photon reactionse+e−, μ+ μ− and π+ π− pair production were separated using scintillation counters, Cherenkov counters and shower-range chambers. A radiation widthГγγ(f2(1270))=3.1±0.35±0.35 keV was obtained.

Measurements are reported of inclusive production of η-mesons in the beam fragmentation region in γp, πp andKp collisions. Results include a small but significant departure from VMD, and a pronounced rise in theη/π0 ratio with increasingpT.

Data are presented on inclusiveKs0 and Λ production inK+ and π+ collisions with Al and Au nuclei at 250 GeV/c. Results are given on total inclusive cross sections and theA dependence, as well as on distributions in Feynman-xF, rapidityy and transverse momentum. Ratios ofKS0 and of Λ to π+ production are presented. The data are compared with predictions of the quark-parton model FRITIOF.

A systematic study of inclusive pion double charge exchange is reported for nuclei between A=16 and A=208. The doubly differential cross sections for the A(π+,π−) and A(π−,π+) reactions in O16, Ca40, Rh103, and Pb208 were measured at incident energies between 120 and 270 MeV at three to five outgoing pion angles. Pion spectra were measured over the energy range from 10 MeV to the kinematic limit for double charge exchange. Integrating these spectra over outgoing pion energy generated angular distributions, and subsequently integrating these angular distributions generated total reaction cross sections. The shapes of the measured spectra are compared with those determined by the distribution of events in four-body phase space and with those predicted by a model in which the pion undergoes two sequential single charge exchanges on nucleons in a Fermi gas. The cross sections are compared with predictions of cascade calculations in which more than two interactions, including pion absorption and scattering without charge exchange, may occur.

Differential cross sections for the neutral pion production reaction C12(p,π0)13Ng.s. have been measured at 153.5, 166.1, 186.0, and 204.0 MeV bombarding energy using recoil detection. The shape of the angular distribution agrees well with that of the mirror reaction C12(p,π+)13Cg.s.. Isospin invariance predicts for the ratio of the cross sections σ(p,π+)/σ(p,π0)=2. At 153.5, 166.1, and 186.0, MeV, where (p,π+) cross sections have been reported previously by other groups at the same reduced pion momentum η=pπ/mπc=0.34,0.55,0.78, the ratio of the total cross sections is 2.02±0.14, 3.14±0.12, and 2.12±0.16, respectively. The (p,π0) cross sections at 166 MeV is therefore 1.57±0.06 times larger than expected. For Tp<160 MeV, the experimental cross sections are larger than predicted by a phase space and Coulomb barrier penetration calculation that fits the higher-energy data. Differential cross sections were also obtained for the C12(p,π−)13O reaction, and upper limits set for differential cross sections for radiative capture to the ground state of N13.

Mean ranges and forward-to-backward ratios have been determined by the thick-target, thick-catcher technique for fragments from the interaction of 13.6-GeV/nucleon O16 with copper. Experimental data are analyzed in terms of a two-step model and results are discussed in the context of limiting fragmentation and factorization and the predictions of a simple model for momentum transfer. Momenta imparted in the initial interactions of 13.6-GeV/nucleon O16 were inferred to be ∼12% lower than those for fragmentation of Cu by high-energy protons.
