We present direct measurements of the total cross section for neutrons on protons and deuterons in the momentum range 0.7 to 3.6 GeVc. Using these and other nucleon-nucleon total cross sections, we evaluate total cross sections in the pure isospin states.

We observe substantial B-meson production in π−d interactions at 7 GeVc. The observed mass and width of the B are 1217 ± 12 MeV and 115 ± 40 MeV, respectively. We find that the B is produced largely in quasi-two-body final states, and, on the basis of the observed Δ0B production cross section, we expect a large πA 2B coupling which should be observable in other reactions.

We have measured the polarization parameter in neuton-proton charge-exchange scattering for incident neutron momenta of 2-12 GeVc and 0.01<~|t|<~1.0 (GeVc)2. Results based on 300 000 events show a negative polarization whose magnitude increases monotonically with |t| approaching 60% for |t|∼0.6 and which has little energy dependence.

Cross sections for inelastic scattering of electrons from hydrogen and deuterium were measured for incident energies from 4.5 to 18 GeV, at scattering angles of 18°, 26°, and 34°, and covering a range of squared four-momentum transfers up to 20 (GeVc)2. Neutron cross sections were extracted from the deuterium data using an impulse approximation. Comparisons with the proton measurements show significant differences between the neutron and proton cross sections.

The elastic scattering of positive pions by deuterium has been studied using a scintillating target to detect the recoil deuteron. In addition to the angular distribution measured for 256 MeV incident energy, the energy variation of the fixed angle cross section ( θ lab =160°) has been determined between 141 MeV and 256 MeV. The former is in qualitative agreement with a simple multiple-scattering calculation, but the energy dependence is poorly reproduced.

Elastic diffraction scattering of π − , K − and p on protons has been measured at 25 and 40 GeV/c at the Serpukhov Proton Accelerator. Differential elastic cross sections and diffraction slopes are presented in the momentum-transfer interval 0.07–0.80 (GeV/ c ) 2 and compared with existing data at lower energies.

Electron-proton elastic scattering cross sections have been measured at squared four-momentum transfers q 2 of 0.67, 1.00, 1.17, 1.50, 1.75, 2.33 and 3.00 (GeV/ c ) 2 and Electron scattering angles θ e between 10° and 20° and at about 86° in the laboratory. The proton electromagnetic form factors G E p and G M p were determined. The results indicate that G E p ( q 2 ) decreases faster with increasing q 2 than G M p ( q 2 ). Quasi-elastic electron-deuteron cross sections have been determined at values of q 2 = 0.39, 0.565, 0.78, 1.0 and 1.5 (GeV/ c ) 2 and scattering angles between 10° and 12°. At q 2 = 0.565 (GeV/ c 2 data have also been taken with θ e = 35° and at q 2 = 1.0 and 1.5 (GeV/ c ) 2 with θ e = 86°. Electron-proton as well as electron-neutron scattering cross sections have been deduced by the ratio method. The theoretical uncertainties of this procedure are shown to be small by comparison of the bound with the free proton cross sections. The magnetic form factor of the neutron G M n derived from the data is consistent with the scaling law. The charge form factor of the neutron is found to be small.

A quasi-two-body model based on one-particle exchange and diffraction dissociation has been fitted to data from π−p interactions at 3.9 and 11.9 GeV/c in which a nucleon and 3-6 pions are present in the final state. It is used to estimate partial cross sections for the contributing interaction mechanisms and the dominant resonances which are produced at these energies. The energy dependence of the cross sections is examined and found to be consistent with expected behavior, and reactions are compared and found to agree with simple factorization.

Asymmetries in charged-pion photoproduction from hydrogen and deuterium have been measured with 16-GeV linearly polarized photons. Considerable energy dependence is seen in the natural-parity contribution to the π−π+ ratio from deuterium, and in the unnatural-parity part of the cross section for γn→π−p. The energy dependence of this latter cross section is consistent with the expected from a conventional pion Regge trajectory.
