A non q q ,J PC = 1 −+ , I G =1 − meson has been observed in the study of the exclusive reaction π − p→π 0 ηn at 100 GeV. Its mass is (1406±20) MeV. Its width is (180±30) MeV.

The K − η effective mass spectrum in the reaction K − p→K − π + π − π 0 p at 11 GeV/ c has a prominent peak at ≈1.75 GeV/ c 2 , which is shown to be due to the K 3 ∗ (1780) by a spherical harmonic moments analysis and amplitude decomposition; there is no significant signal for K 2 ∗ (1430). The measured branching fractions for the leading L =1 and L =2 K ∗, s, [BF(K 2 ∗ (1430)→Kη) <0.45% at the 95% CL and BF ( K 3 ∗ (1780)→ Kη )=9.4±3.4%] confirm the SU(3) prediction that the Kη channel couples preferentially to odd spin K *, s.

In diffractive photoproduction ofηπ+π−, the two-body substatesηρ0 andA2π are found to contribute significantly to the cross-section forηπ+π− masses below 2.4 GeV. From a spin-parity analysis the branching ratio, ρ′(1600)→ηρ/ρ′(1600)→, is determined to be <0.02 at the 68.3% confidence level. TheA2π component shows an enhancement around 1.7 GeV. The spin-parity analysis indicates a probable contribution to this signal from exclusive photoproduction of theg(1690).
