The non-strange four-prong events of π + p interactions at 3.5 GeV/ c are studied. Cross sections are calculated for all resonance productions in the channels π + p → p π + π + π − ( σ T = 3.18 ± 0.13 mb) and π + p → p π + π + π − π o ( σ T = 4.03 ± 0.16 mb). The dominant two body reactions Δ ++ ϱ o and Δ ++ ω o are investigated in detail, and production and decay distributions are presented as well as joint decay density matrix elements and joint correlation terms. The Δ ++ ϱ o reaction is compared to predictions of OPE with absorption and the Δ ++ ω o is compared to rho-exchange with sharp cutoff.

Evidence is presented for an enhancement in the ωππ mass spectrum at the A2 mass region in π+p interactions at 5 GeV/c. Assuming this effect to be the A2, we calculate the decay rate relative to the ρπ decay mode and obtain the results 0.29 ± 0.08 and 0.10 ± 0.04 for the two final states A20Δ++ and A2+p, respectively. Possible explanations of the discrepancy between these numbers are suggested.
