In a bubble chamber experiment, we have measured p p elastic scattering at nine momenta in the range 1.51–2.90 GeV/ c . The extrapolation of the small angle region to t = 0 is discussed and compared with results of other experiments. The differential cross sections are fitted to an adaptation of the Frahn-Venter optical model and also compared to Regge-pole model predictions.

Cross section asymmetries for the sum of single π + and π - production with polarized photons of 3.4 GeV have been measured. The results disagree with calculations based on the vector dominance model using experimental data of vector meson production in π beams.

Measurements of the photoproduction from hydrogen of single K + mesons at gamma ray energies of 3.4 and 5.0 GeV and at laboratory angles of 5.1°, 7.1°, 9.9° and 15.1° are reported. The s dependence at fixed t is derived for momentum transfers of −0.25 and −0.37 (GeV) 2 .

The differential elastic scattering cross section for 2.7 GeV c antiprotons on protons has been studied using film from the 20″ BNL hydrogen bubble chamber. The diffraction pattern based on a total sample of 7300 events shows a sharp forward maximum, a first diffraction minimum, and a second maximum. The forward diffraction peak is fitted by ( d σ d t ) elastic =[325 ± 6 mb ( GeV c ) 2 ] exp [−13.3 ± 0.2( GeV c ) −2 t and the total elastic cross section is found to be 25.6 ± 0.6 mb. The first and second diffraction peaks are fitted by the optical model formula for a “black” disc. d σ d t ∼ [j 1 (2k R sin 1 2 θ)] 2 (1 + a cos θ) 2 where R = 1.2 fm and a = −5.

Measurements of wide angle elastic p-p scattering between 7 and 12 GeV/c are reported. Structure found in the angular distributions is suggestive of diffraction.

We have measured the cross section at 180° for K + p and K + n elastic scattering in the momentum range 1.0 to 1.5 GeV/ c . The K + n cross section was measured on deuterium and the K + p on hydrogen and deuterium. We were thus able to measure directly the difference between free nucleon (proton) scattering and bound nucleon (proton) scattering at large angles. This difference was found to be small and within our experimental accuracy the K + p(n) cross section should be equal to the K + p (free) cross section at 180°. We found no evidence for an s -channel resonance Z ∗ in either the K + p or K + n system. A comparison of our data and those of other groups with theoretical predictions is given.

HYDROGEN AND DEUTERIUM TARGET DATA ARE IN GOOD AGREEMENT. THESE CROSS SECTIONS ARE A WEIGHTED AVERAGE.
Approximately 100 000 four-prong antiproton annihilations in hydrogen were measured. A clean, unbiased sample of 842 K + K − π + π − events was obtained. This reaction is dominated by K ∗ (∼45%) and ϱ 0 (∼20%) production, with smaller amounts of A 2 0 (∼15%) and ϕ (∼5%) production. 25% of the reactions involved double resonance production. No significant three-body resonance production is observed.

Results are reported on the reaction p p → π + π + π − π − π 0 at six lab momenta spanning the region from 0.686 to 1.098 GeV/ c . The cross section for this process drops from 20.3 ± 1.2 mb at 0.686 GeV/ c to 13 1.0 mb at 1.098 GeV/ c . Resonance production is determined by means of a model which includes Bose symmetrization, Breit-Wigner amplitudes and Bose-Einstein correlations for the like-charged pion pairs in the nonresonant part of the amplitude. The likelihood fit to the resonance channels yields about 0.8% ηππ , 12% ϱ ± πππ , 2% f πππ , 8% ω ππ , 22% ϱ ± ϱ 0 π , 13% ωϱ 0 and 9% ω f with errors on the order of a few percent. Several percent A 1 ± ππ and X(1440) π were also needed to obtain good fits. The ϱ 0 πππ and ϱ 0 ϱ 0 π channels as well as A 2 ππ and A 1 0 ππ are consistent with zero. Reasonable fits to the mass distributions are obtained. Production angular distributions are found to be essentially uniform. The angular correlations between pion pairs are approximately fit by the simple model of resonance production with Bose symmetrization.

We have estimated cross sections for the production of resonances in the reactions K − p → Λ 0 + pions. The data have also been analysed by a method which examines event-to-event fluctuations. Within the framework of the simple parametrization of resonance production assumed, the contribution from the resonances is insufficient to explain the observed fluctuations in the longitudinal emission of the final-state particles. These features are well reproduced by an independent cluster emission model.
