Approximately 100 000 four-prong antiproton annihilations in hydrogen were measured. A clean, unbiased sample of 842 K + K − π + π − events was obtained. This reaction is dominated by K ∗ (∼45%) and ϱ 0 (∼20%) production, with smaller amounts of A 2 0 (∼15%) and ϕ (∼5%) production. 25% of the reactions involved double resonance production. No significant three-body resonance production is observed.

Results are presented from a study of the annihilation interaction p―p→K+K−π+π− at 8.3 GeV/c based on data from an experiment performed with the large-aperture solenoid spectrometer (LASS) at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center. A measurement of the reaction cross section is made, and contributions to the final state from the φ, f0A20, K*(890), K*(1430), and ρ0 resonances are studied.

Antiproton-proton annihilations into final states containing one or two K10-mesons are studied on the basis of 450 000 pictures from the CERN 2 m HBC. The experiment covers the domain of antiproton incident momentum from 1.50 to 2.04 GeV/c. The resonance production rates are computed for the most abundant channels. The K10K10 threshold effect is explained through the inelastic channel π+π− → K10K10. The decay modes D, E → δ±(975)π∓, δ±(975) → K10K± are pointed out. The strange mesons C and C′ are observed in these annihilations and come mainly from the two-body channels \(p\bar p\) → (C, C′)K and\(p\bar p\) → (C, C′)K*.

The production of the φ and ω mesons has been studied in the reactions p p → φ(ω)π + π − and p p → φ(ω) ϱ 0 at 0.70–0.76 GeV /c . The c.m. angular distribution of the φ meson in the reaction p p → φπ + π − is found to be consistent with isotropy. The corresponding distribution for ω is not. the ratio σ( p p → φπ + π − ) σ( p p → ωπ + π − ) is (10 ± 2.4) · 10 −3 , which leads to a value of (19 ± 5) · 10 −3 when corrected for the phase-space factor. Implications of this result for the OZI rule are discussed.
