We have measured the differential cross sections for the reactions K − p → K 0 n, K − p → Λπ 0 and K − p → Λη , and the Λ polarization distribution for the second reaction, at K − lab momenta of 3.13, 3.30 and 3.59 GeV/ c . The K − p → Λπ 0 polarization is very large: for the combined data in the interval 0.1 < - t < 0.4 GeV 2 , it is 0.98 ± 0.15. The K − p → Λη forward peak is very steep: for the combined data, the slope b in d/d t = a e bt is 16.2 ± 2.3 GeV −2 , whereas it is about 3 GeV −2 for K − p → K 0 n and 5 GeV −2 for K − p → Λπ 0 . There is a dip near t = −0.5 GeV 2 in the K − p → Λη differential cross section , and another near u = −0.3 GeV 2 in the K − p → Λπ 0 differential cross section. The results are compared with predictions of simple models.
