The n̄-Fe absorption cross section σ abs n Fe has been measured at LEAR (the Low Energy Antiproton Ring at CERN) using tagged n̄'s produced in the p̄p → n̄n charge-exchange reaction. With incident p̄ momenta of 875 and 545 MeV/ c σ abs n Fe has been measured in the momentum interval between 125 and 780 MeV/ c , in a region where only a few measurements presently exist. The overall statistical and systematic errors range from 20 to 5%; the normalisation error is less than 3%. The measured cross sections are well reproduced by a parametrisation a + b p n , with a = 0.680 ± 0.051 barn and b = 0.228 ± 0.024 barn·GeV/ c .
The errors are the sum in quadrature of the statistical and systematical errors.
The reaction p + d → π − + X has been studied at Saturne at 1.45, 2.10 and 2.70 GeV, using the spectrometer SPES III. The analysing power and the differential cross sections show no evidence for narrow structures which could be interpreted as a resonance in the three baryon system. At the lowest incident energy, the shapes of the experimental cross sections are well reproduced by phase-space distributions.
Axis error includes +- 0.0/0.0 contribution (?////).
New data are reported on antiproton annihilations at rest with production of Λ and K s 0 , using a streamer chamber with 3 He, 4 He and 20 Ne as gas targets. The data include Λ, K s 0 , ΛK s 0 and K s 0 K S 0 production rates and momentum distributions, π − momentum spectra, mean numbers of charged particles generally and of negatively charged particles separately for different reaction channels. The yields are compared to simple combinatorial calculations based on the extreme assumptions of Λ production via B = 1 or via B = 0 ( K ̄ rescattering) annihilations. Λ and K s 0 momentum spectra are compared to simple model calculations where B = 0 and B = 1 annihilations with and without final-state interactions are considered. A review of existing data on Λ and K s 0 production is presented, showing the dependence on the p ̄ momentum and on the mass number of the target.

The analysis is based upon p̄Ne annihilation events at rest and at 607 MeV/c detected with a self-shunted streamer chamber exposed to the LEAR beams. The main measured quantities are the following: charged-prong multiplicity, negative pion multiplicity; momentum, angular and rapidity distributions. General distributions are given as well as distributions as functions of charged prong multiplicity. A correlation is found between high multiplicity and depth of the annihilation point. The data are compared with recent theoretical analyses.

Antiproton- 3 He annihilation events at rest have been detected using a self-shunted streamer chamber. The ratio of the cross section for annihilation on neutrons and on protons has been measured (0.467 ± 0.035). It is compared with other results from annihilation on free nucleons, deuterium, 3 He and 4 He. The low value of the ratio seems to indicate a strong isospin dependence of the antinucleon-nucleon P-wave amplitude.

The mean multiplicity and the angular distribution of the charged pions produced in the n̄ annihilation on Fe in the range from 12 to 140 MeV is presented. The experimental technique and methods of analysis are described. A comparison with the p̄ results is performed, together with a discussion of some possible pion-nucleus interaction mechanisms in the above n̄ energy range.

Final results of the measurement of the analysing power A On of the p p → n n reaction are presented. Eight measurements in the range 546–1287 MeV/ c incoming p momentum have been performed over the full angular range using a solid polarized proton target and the Low Energy Antiproton Ring (LEAR) at CERN antiproton extracted beams.

As part of a programme to study the spin structure of the p p→ n n channel, we have measured the analysing power A 0 n and the differential cross section at an incident antiproton beam momentum of 704 MeV/ c . The analysing power exhibits a remarkable angular dependence, which is poorly reproduced by the existing potential models.

The depolarization parameter Donon of the p dash p → n dash n charge exchange reaction has been measured for the first time at the CERN Low Energy Antiproton Ring (LEAR) at two antiproton momenta, 546 and 875 MeV/ c . The transverse polarization of the recoil neutron was analyzed using a large-acceptance neutron polarimeter made up of two parallel plastic scintillator planes. D 0 n 0 n is usually less than 0.35 which suggests that the spin-spin amplitudes dominate in the scattering matrix. Results are compared with the predictions of various N dash N potential models. The agreement is in general satisfactory.
