This paper presents the results of a study of the dominant neutral final states from π−p interactions. The data were obtained in an experiment performed at the Brookhaven National Laboratory Alternating Gradient Synchrotron, using a set of steel-plate optical spark chambers surrounding a liquid-hydrogen target. We present differential and total cross sections for the reactions (1) π−p→n+π0 and (2) π−p→n+η0(η0→2γ) and total cross sections for the reactions (3) π−p→n+kπ0 (k=2, 3, 4, and 5) and (4) π−p→all neutrals for eighteen values of beam momentum in the interval 1.3 to 4.0 GeV/c. The angular distributions for (1) and (2) have been analyzed in terms of expansions in Legendre polynomials, the coefficients for which are also given.

FORWARD DIFFERENTIAL CROSS SECTION CALCULATED FROM LEGENDRE POLYNOMIAL COEFFICIENTS AND ERROR MATRICES.
Differential cross sections for the reaction π − p→ η n at 20 incident pion momenta between 724 and 2723 MeV/ c are presented. The results are compared with previous measurements. The data show clear evidence of non-zero couplings of this channel to known I = 1 2 , S = 0 baryon resonances with masses up to 2000 MeV/ c 2 .

New data are presented on the reaction K − n → K ∗− (890) n from a deuterium bubble chamber experiment. An energy-dependent partial-wave analysis from threshold to 2170 MeV c.m. energy is described, in which a new decay mode of the Σ(2030) resonance into K ∗ (890) N in the S = 3 2 state is clearly observed. An amplitude at resonance of 0.12 ± 0.02 is obtained, consistent with the assignment of the Σ (2030) to the same SU(3) decuplet as the Δ(1950).

Results are presented of differential cross-section measurements for the reaction π − p→ π 0 n; π 0 → γγ at 22 incident pion momenta between 618 and 2724 MeV/ c . The results are in good agreement with those of other experiments. They represent the first comprehensive set of high statistics measurements of the π − p charge-exchange differential cross section at closely spaced momenta in the resonance region.

We report here the results from an experiment to obtain differential cross sections for K−p elastic scattering in the laboratory momentum region from 1.4 to 1.9 GeV/c. These data span the region of a bump in the K−p total cross section at an energy of 2.05 GeV. Approximately 20000 elastic events were obtained at each of four momenta with an angular coverage of 0.9≥cosθc.m.≥−0.9. The data are intended to aid in phase-shift analyses of the resonances causing the bump in the total cross section and to study dip structures at constant values of the Mandelstam variables t and u.

FROM INTEGRATING LEGENDRE POLYNOMIAL FIT TO D(SIG)/DOMEGA. QUOTED ERRORS INCLUDE NORMALIZATION AND FITTING UNCERTAINTIES.
Measurements have been made of the differential cross section for p p elastic scattering over a c.m. angular range −0.95 ⩽ cos θ ∗ ⩽ 0.93 at 21 incident antiproton momenta between 0.69 GeV/ c and 2.43 GeV/ c (c.m. energy 1.96–2.58 GeV). About 10 5 events were obtained at each momentum. The results are discussed primarily in terms of the formation of s -channel resonances in the T and U mass regions, and within the context of the optical model of Frahn and Venter.

Precision measurements of the analyzing powers for the reaction ppol+p→d+π+ have been made at ≃ 550, 600, 650, 700, and 800 MeV. The data have been analyzed in terms of Legendre polynomials. It is found that excitation functions for both even and odd Legendre coefficients exhibit very similar resonant behaviors. It is concluded that the triplet amplitudes are as strongly dominated by the Δ(1232) as the well-known singlet amplitude, D21, and that the data do not exhibit any anomalous behavior suggestive of dibaryon resonances.

The unpolarized differential cross section for the reaction pp→π + d has been measured at SIN at seven energies between 514 and 583 MeV. Data are presented in terms of a Legendre polynomial expansion. An observed strong energy dependence of the 4th order coefficient can be understood as a threshold phenomenon in a phenomenological NΔ resonant description. No evidence was found for a 1 D 2 dibaryon resonance near 600 MeV.

COEFFICIENTS OF COS(THETA)**2 EXPANSION OF 32*PI*D(SIG)/DOMEGA.
We present measurements from a counter-optical spark chamber experiment of the differential cross sections for p̄p → π 0 π 0 , π 0 η 0 at 25 momenta in the range 1.1 − 2.0 GeV/ c (c.m. energy 2.12 to 2.43 GeV). Approximately 750 000 pictures were taken in the experiment.
THE ANGULAR DISTRIBUTIONS IN THE PUBLISHED FIGURES ARE NOT TABULATED HERE SINCE THEY ARE ONLY RECONSTRUCTED FROM THE LEGENDRE EXPANSION COEFFICIENTS WHICH WERE MEASURED DIRECTLY FROM THE DATA.

LEGENDRE COEFFICIENTS NORMALIZED SO THAT LEG(L=0) = SIG/(2*PI) (IDENTICAL PARTICLES IN FINAL STATE). THESE ARE PLOTTED IN FIG. 1 OF THE FOLLOWING PAPER.
The angular distributions of the reactions K - p → K - p and K - p → K K 0 n have been measured at 23 incident K - momenta between 1.136 and 1.798 ifGeV/c using the bubble chamber technique. These data, together with other published data on the same reactions, including K - p polarisations, K̄N total cross sections, and measurements of Re ƒ(0)/ Im ƒ(0) , have been analysed in terms of partial-wave amplitudes. Resonance behaviour is confirmed for the P 03 partial wave at 1890 MeV. The resonance parameters of the F 15 (1915), F 17 (2030) and G 07 (2100) have been redetermined. No evidence has been found for new resonances coupling significantly to K K N in the energy region explored.
