Results on the elastic K − π − scattering have been obtained from a study of the K − π − system in 15 000 events of the type K − p→K − π − p π + at a K − beam momentum of 4.25 GeV/ c . The on-mass-shell values of the spherical harmonic moments of the K − π − scattering angular distribution and the K − π − elastic cross section have been obtained by extrapolation to the pion pole. From these values we determined the s- and p-wave phase shifts δ 0 3 and δ 1 3 as a function of the effective mass of the K − π − system between threshold and 1.25 GeV/ c 2 . The value of | δ 0 3 | is smaller than 17° for all mass values and the existence of a p-wave cannot be neglected. At m K − π − = 1.18 GeV/ c 2 there are two solutions for the phase shifts. On the average, the cross section of the K − π − elastic scattering over the region of the effective mass considered amounts to approximately 2.5 mb.
The errors combine statistical and systematical effects.
The errors are statistical.
An analysis of the reaction K−p→K−pπ+π− at 2.0-GeVc incident momentum is presented. The total cross section for the reaction is 627±20 μb, based on 4519 events. The reaction is dominated by resonance production through several channels which overlap kinematically but do not appear to interferesubstantially. A maximum-likelihood procedure was used to determine the production fractions, which for the major channels are 0.44±0.02 for N*++(1236), 0.145±0.02 for Y*0(1520), 0.10±0.03 for N*+(1688), and 0.20±0.02 for simultaneous K¯*0N*0. Evidence is presented for the production of Y*+(1765) and its decay into Y*0(1520) as well as for production of Y*+(1660) with decay into K−pπ+. A four-standard-deviation enhancement is present at a K−π+ invariant mass of 690 MeV. Angular correlation data are presented for the N*++K−π−, Y*0π+π−, and K¯*0N*0 reaction channels. However, the difficulty of separating the various channels prevents a detailed study of the reaction dynamics.
