Measurements have been made of pi+ absorption on He3 at T_pi+ = 118, 162, and 239 MeV using the Large Acceptance Detector System (LADS). The nearly 4pi solid angle coverage of this detector minimizes uncertainties associated with extrapolations over unmeasured regions of phase space. The total absorption cross section is reported. In addition, the total cross section is divided into components in which only two or all three nucleons play a significant role in the process. These are the first direct measurements of the total and three nucleon absorption cross sections.

We have studied the reactions\(\bar pn \to \pi ^ -\pi ^ -\pi ^ +(\pi ^0 )\) at incident momenta between 0.42 and 1.65 GeV/c using two exposures in deuterium-filled bubble chambers. The ratio of the rates for 3π to 4π final states shows a sharp increase at a momentum of about 0.8 GeV/c. A full partial-wave analysis of the 3π final state has been made and complex structure is observed at approximately the same momentum, associated in particular with theJP=3+ final state.

A search for stableH-dibaryon ofI=0,Y=0,JP=0+ was undertaken in negative pion-, neutron-,12C-nucleus- and proton-propane interactions at 4.0, 7.0, 50.4 and 10 GeV/c, respectively, using 55 cm and 2 m propane bubble chambers. This technique permite one to examine the whole range of possibleH-mass value. In the range ofMH>2MΛ=2231.2 MeV/c2 an enhancement ofMΛΛ=(2365.3±9.6) MeV/c2, ΓΛΛ=(47.2±15.1) MeV/c2 with production cross section σ=(24.2±7.0) μb per carbon nucleus was found. The mass rangeMΣ−p<MH<2MΛ was explored via the search for a weak decay modeH→Σ−+p. AV0-particle was found pointing to a two-prong interaction and satisfying the kinematics of the above two-body decay mode with a high confidence level. The possibility of imitation of the observed event by background processes was investigated for a series of two-step strong reactions and weak decays. We succeeded to show the significance of theH-production hypothesis on a deuteron-mass nuclear fluctuon via thepd→HpK+K0 reaction. The mass of the event treated as aH→Σ−+p weak decay appeared to be (2173.94±1.32) MeV/c2, its life-time being 0.668·10−10 s. Both are in agreement with predictions of the MIT Bag Model for the so-calledH-dihyperon. The formally determined production cross section of theH in proton-propane interactions at 10 GeV/c is estimated to be 40 nb. Perhaps, this event can be considered as a first evidence for a six-quark bound state-H-dihyperon. An independent way for the search for theH-particle, based on a specific conversion processHN→YYN, peculiar to its intranuclear strong interactions was proposed and tried. For this purpose all events with two Λ-hyperons and identified protons were tested for the hypothesesHp→ΛΛp at three fixed masses:MH=1880.00, 2173.94 MeV/c2 and the ΛΛ invariant mass for the event in question. The kinematics of this reaction fits successfully only one event and only atMH=2173.94 MeV/c2. It seems worthy of note that the final state ΛΛ invariant massMΛΛ=2344 MeV/c2 is rather close to the observed peak at 2365 MeV/c2. It is shown that the intranuclear conversion processes Ξ−p→ΛΛ and Ξ0n→ΛΛ fail to imitate the observed event. The ΛΛp invariant mass of this event equal to 3363 MeV/c2 is out of a 3568 MeV/c2 peak region of the ΛΛp invariant mass spectrum observed earlier. TheH conversion cross section exceeds the production one. Thus, we consider this event as providing a new evidence for the stableH-dibaryon ofMH=(2173.94±1.32) MeV/c2.

A combination is presented of all inclusive deep inelastic cross sections previously published by the H1 and ZEUS collaborations at HERA for neutral and charged current $e^{\pm}p$ scattering for zero beam polarisation. The data were taken at proton beam energies of 920, 820, 575 and 460 GeV and an electron beam energy of 27.5 GeV. The data correspond to an integrated luminosity of about 1 fb$^{-1}$ and span six orders of magnitude in negative four-momentum-transfer squared, $Q^2$, and Bjorken $x$. The correlations of the systematic uncertainties were evaluated and taken into account for the combination. The combined cross sections were input to QCD analyses at leading order, next-to-leading order and at next-to-next-to-leading order, providing a new set of parton distribution functions, called HERAPDF2.0. In addition to the experimental uncertainties, model and parameterisation uncertainties were assessed for these parton distribution functions. Variants of HERAPDF2.0 with an alternative gluon parameterisation, HERAPDF2.0AG, and using fixed-flavour-number schemes, HERAPDF2.0FF, are presented. The analysis was extended by including HERA data on charm and jet production, resulting in the variant HERAPDF2.0Jets. The inclusion of jet-production cross sections made a simultaneous determination of these parton distributions and the strong coupling constant possible, resulting in $\alpha_s(M_Z)=0.1183 \pm 0.0009 {\rm(exp)} \pm 0.0005{\rm (model/parameterisation)} \pm 0.0012{\rm (hadronisation)} ^{+0.0037}_{-0.0030}{\rm (scale)}$. An extraction of $xF_3^{\gamma Z}$ and results on electroweak unification and scaling violations are also presented.

We have measured inclusive data on $K^+$-meson production in $pp$ collisions at COSY J\"ulich close to the hyperon production threshold and determined the hyperon-nucleon invariant mass spectra. The spectra were decomposed into three parts: $\Lambda p$, $\Sigma^0p$ and $\Sigma^+n$. The cross section for the $\Sigma^+n$ channel was found to be much smaller than a previous measurement in that excess energy region. The data together with previous results at higher energies are compatible with a phase space dependence.
