The invariant cross section of the reaction of deuteron stripping on carbon target has been measured at a deuteron momentum of 8.9 GeV/c. The cross section is obtained at a zero detection angle of the stripping proton: E/p2xd2σ/dpdΩ=(281+-9)xbxGeV/srx(GeV/c)3. This value is consistent with the one calculated in the framework of the Bertocci-Treleani model of deuteron fragmentation. When the method of Nissen-Meyer is used for orthogonalization of the wave functions of primary deuteron and the (np) system, resulting from its disintegration, a similar calculation gives the result, which is 1.4 times larger than the measured value. Distribution in the cosine of angle of proton yield at the fixed proton momentum p turned out to be near to isotropy one and distribution in p at the fixed cos theta has the maximum at p=50 MeV/c

Besides the dedicated search for strangelets NA52 measures light (anti)particle and (anti)nuclei production over a wide range of rapidity. Compared to previous runs the statistics has been increased in the 1998 run by more than one order of magnitude for negatively charged objects at different spectrometer rigidities. At a rigidity of −20 GeV/ c we measured 10 6 p , 10 3 d and one 3 He without any centrality requirements. These preliminary results together with previous measurements near central rapidity are discussed in the framework of a thermodynamical and a coalescence model.

We present results on the production of omega mesons at high transverse momenta in pi^-Be interactions at 515 GeV/c. The data span the kinematic range 3.5 < p_T < 8 GeV/c. We compare the measured cross section with expectations from Monte Carlo QCD generators. The relative yield of omega to pi^0 mesons is used to extract the ratio of vector to pseudoscalar meson production for the first generation of quarks.

Invariant cross-sections are presented for the inclusive reaction p + p → π o + anything, Measurements of large transverse momentum π o 's (2.5 GeV/ c < p ⊥ <9 GeV/ c ) were made near 90° at the CERN ISR at five centre-of-mass energies (√ s = 23.5, 30.6, 44.8, 52.7 and 62.4 GeV. At large p ⊥ , the invariant cross-sections are seem to vary with s and p ⊥ , in good agreement with a fit of the form Ap ⊥ − n F ( p ⊥ /√ s ), with n ≈8 and F ( p ⊥ /√ s )≈ exp (−26 p ⊥ /√ s ).

The inclusive production al all charged particles of transverse momentum p T between 1.5 and 4.4 GeV/ c at centre of mass angles 90° and 59.4° from p-p-collisions with √ s = 44 and 53 GeV has been measured. No strong energy dependence is observed for these transverse momenta.

An experiment has been performed to study the inclusive photoproduction of π 0 mesons. Photoproduced π 0 's were detected in a hodoscope consisting of 14 lead glass Cerenkov counters. To obtain the cross sections at a photon energy of 6 GeV we used the photon-difference method. Data are presented in terms of the Feynman variable x = q ‖ ∗ (√s/2) and the trnasverse momentum q⊥. We have measured four q ⊥ distributions at x = 0.2, 0.4, 0.6 and 0.8. The results dhow that the π 0 rate at small values of q ⊥ is smaller than the π± rate. The data can be fitted smoothly by a form A exp (− Bq ⊥ 2 ) with a value about 3.5 GeV −2 for the slope parameter B .

We searched for long-lived strange quark matter particles, so-called strangelets , and studied particle and antiparticle production in Pb + Pb collisions at 158 GeV/ c per nucleon at zero degree production angle. We give upper limits for the production of strangelets covering a mass to charge ratio up to 120 GeV/ c 2 and lifetimes t lab > 1.2 μ s and plot invariant differential production cross sections as a function of rapidity for a variety of particles.

We investigate antinuclei production in Pb + Pb interactions at 158 GeV/ c per nucleon at zero degree production angle. We quote invariant differential production cross sections for antiprotons and antideuterons. The corresponding antideuteron to antiproton ratio at midrapidity is 4.2 · 10 −4 . One antihelium-3 nucleus was observed. The results are discussed in the framework of a simple coalescence model.
