Differential cross sections have been measured for π+p and π−p elastic scattering at 378, 408, 427, 471, 509, 547, 586, 625, 657, and 687 MeV/c in the angular range -0.8<cosθc.m.<0.8. The scattered pion and recoil proton were detected in coincidence using scintillation-counter hodoscopes. A liquid-hydrogen target was used except for measurements at forward angles, in which a CH2 target was used. Statistical uncertainties in the data are typically less than 1%. Systematic uncertainties in acceptance and detection efficiency are estimated to be 1%. Absolute normalization uncertainties are 2–3 % for most of the data. The measurements are compared with previous data and with the results of recent partial-wave analyses. The data are fit with Legendre expansions from which total elastic cross sections are obtained.

We present extracted data for the pure I = 1 π 0 Λ (1520) channel from the reaction K − p → K − p π 0 at 11 incident momenta between 0.96 and 1.355 GeV/ c (1775 to 1960 MeV c.m. energy). A partial-wave analysis of this channel has been carried out over a broad c.m. energy range from 1710 to 2170 MeV using data at 27 momenta from this and earlier experiments. The 5 2 − Σ(1775) and built7 2 + Σ(2030) resonances are found to decay strongly to this channel. Amplitudes are also obtained for less dominant and less well-established resonances.
