High statistics data for the reaction K − p→K − π + n at 11 GeV / c have been obtained in the LASS spectrometer at SLAC. A spherical harmonic moments analysis provides clear evidence for the production of the complete leading orbitally excited K ∗ series up through J P = 5 − . New measurements are made of the masses and widths of the 1 − K ∗ (892), 2 + K ∗ (1430 ), 3 − K ∗ (1780), and 4 + K ∗ (2060), and evidence is presented for the production of a new K ∗ state at 2382 MeV / c 2 with spin-parity 5 − .

The Low Mass K pi System in K- p --> anti-K pi n Reactions at 14.3-GeV/c

We present experimental results and a partial-wave analysis of the low-mass ( K π) 0 systems produced in the reactions K − p → K π N at 14.3 GeV/ c . The main results concern the production mechanisms of the K ∗ (890) and K ∗ (1420) . We also extract the s-wave component of the K π system as a function of mass.

New Evidence for K* (1780) Production

Spiro, M. ; Barloutaud, R. ; Borg, A. ; et al.
Phys.Lett.B 60 (1976) 389-392, 1976.
Inspire Record 100448 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.27754

We present the first evidence for K ∗ (1780) production in a non-exchange channel. This comes from a study of the reaction K − p → K° π − p at 14.3 GeV/ c . We also present evidence for K ∗ ° (1780) production in the charge exchange channel K − p → K − π + n. No significant K ππ , K ω and K η decay modes are found. The decay angular distribution, the spin-parity assignments and the production mechanism are discussed. With plausible assumptions on the production mechanism, the J P = 3 − spin-parity is favoured.
