We present a measurement of the total cross section σ t in proton-proton collisions at the CERN ISR. The method involves determination of the total interaction rate and machine luminosity. A two-arm scintillation hodoscope observes ∼ 90% of the total interaction rate, while a streamer chamber is employed for event topologies missed by the main trigger. An increase of about 10% in σ t is observed in the energy range √ s = 23.6 to √ s = 62.8 GeV/ c in agreement with previous experiments.

Coherent Photoproduction of Vector Mesons on Deuterium at 5.5-GeV

Gupta, Virendra Prakash ; Fung, S.Y. ; Oh, Y.T. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.D 14 (1976) 42-54, 1976.
Inspire Record 115714 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.24672

Coherent photoproduction of vector mesons ρ0, ω, φ, and ρ′ on deuterium was studied using the SLAC 82-in. bubble chamber exposed to linearly polarized photons at 5.5 GeV. The reaction channel γd→π+π−d was studied in detail. Nine independent density-matrix parameters have been determined from the ρ0 decay distribution. ρ production in this channel was found to proceed almost completely through natural-parity exchange for |t|≤0.25 GeV2 and conserve s-channel c.m. helicity for |t|≤0.15 GeV2. A measurement of differential cross section for this channel has been made.

A Study of the Reactions pi+ d --> d pi+ pi- pi+ and pi+ d --> d pi+ pi- pi+ pi0 at 11.7-GeV/c

Kemp, D. ; Scarrott, S.M. ; Contri, R. ; et al.
Nuovo Cim.A 33 (1976) 369-386, 1976.
Inspire Record 114333 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.37673

The two coherent reactions π+d → dπ+π+π− and π+d → → dπ+π+π+π0 are studied in the 2 m DBC at the incoming momentum of 11.7 GeV/c. The production cross-sections are measured:σ=(0.37±±0.06) mb andσ=(0.24±0.05) mb respectively. The two reactions are analysed in the different LPS configurations. The dσ/dt′ distribution for the two reactions displays the same exp[−At′] shape withA⋍37 (GeV/c)−2 in both cases, thus indicating that the differential cross-sections are dominated by the deuteron form factor. The coherent inclastic interaction contains the channel π+d → θ0π+d with a cross-sectionσ==(20±5) µb and a signal for the B+-meson of about 12 µb. The four-pion masses display structures below 2 GeV/c.

Large t Elastic Proton Proton Scattering at s**(1/2) = 53-GeV

de Kerret, H. ; Nagy, E. ; Regler, M. ; et al.
Phys.Lett.B 62 (1976) 363-365, 1976.
Inspire Record 108743 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.27660

New experimental results are presented on proton-proton elastic scattering in the range of momentum transfer 0.8GeV 2 < − t < 9 GeV 2 at a centre-of-mass energy of √ s = 53 GeV. The data are obtained sing the Split-Field- Magnet Detector at the CERN Intersecting Storage Rings. The cross section has well-known minimum at − t = (1.34±0.02) GeV 2 but no further minimum or change of slope is observed between 2 and 6.5 GeV 2 .

Nucl.Phys.B 92 (1975) 196-206, 1975.
Inspire Record 98235 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.32060

The asymmetry of the cross sections for the photoproduction of π + mesons on polarized protons γ + p↑ → π + + n has been studied in the four-momentum transfer range 0.1 ⩽ | t | ⩽ 1.25 (GeV/ c ) 2 for photon energies of 2.5, 3.4 and 5.0 GeV. The measurements were carried out on a polarized butanol target. Both particles in the final state were detected: the pion by a magnetic spectrometer, the recoil nucleon in a scintillation counter matrix. The asymmetry was found to be negative with values around −0.4.

Inspire Record 100941 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.37676

π−p elastic scattering is studied at an incident π− beam momentum of 3.92 GeV/c. From the analysis of about 38 000 elastic events we give the differential cross-section for −t>0.06 (GeV)2. The known structures at −t ≈ 0.8 and 2.8 (GeV)2 are seen. An additional possible structure is present in the backward hemisphere.

Results are presented of a bubble chamber experiment on K − p elastic scattering at 14.3 GeV/ c , in four-momentum transfer range 0.04 < | t | < 2.74 GeV 2 using an initial set of 40 000 events. The total elastic cross section is (2.96 ± 0.10) mb. The results are compared with K + p elastic scattering data at 13.8 GeV/ c , and the effective Regge trajectory is calculated using K − p data from 5 to 100 GeV/ c .

Study of the Reaction pi+ p --> omega Delta++ (1236) at 16-GeV/c

The Aachen-Berlin-Bonn-CERN-Cracow-Heidelberg collaboration Grassler, H. ; Honecker, R. ; Laven, H. ; et al.
Nucl.Phys.B 115 (1976) 365-384, 1976.
Inspire Record 110390 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.35656

The reaction π + p→ ωΔ ++ (1236) is studied at 16 GeV/ c . Cross section, differential cross section, single and joint spin-density matrix elements are given and the correlations between the ε and Δ ++ (1236) decay angular distributions are investigated. Natural and unnatural spin-parity exchanges contribute to this reaction in roughly equal amounts. Natural exchanges lead predominantly to Δ ++ (1236) with helicity ± 3 2 , while unnatural exchanges lead predominantly to Δ ++ (1236) with helicity ± 1 2 and to ε with helicity zero. Furthermore, unnatural exchanges are small at t ′≅0.2 GeV 2 compared to other t ′ values, which may be due to the nonsense wrong-signature-zero of the B-meson exchange. Quark model relations are found to be satisfied by the data.

Inelastic Diffractive Scattering at the CERN ISR

The CHLM collaboration Albrow, M.G. ; Bagchus, A. ; Barber, D.P. ; et al.
Nucl.Phys.B 108 (1976) 1-29, 1976.
Inspire Record 3424 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.8494

The properties of the diffractive peak observed in the mass spectra of systems recoiling against observed high-momentum protons emerging from pp collisions at the CERN ISR have been investigated. The cross sections in this peak have been found to have a steep t dependence which flattens out as | t | increases. The high mass side of the peak varies approximately as 1/ M 2 (where M is the missing mass of the recoiling system) and scales well in terms of the variable M 2 / s . The position of the maximum has been observed to move to lower values of M 2 / s as the kinematic boundary of this variable decreases with increasing s . The measured cross sections, integrated up to M 2 / s =0.05, rise by (15±5)% over the s range 549 to 1464 GeV 2 .
