The ratios of high p T charged kaon to pion production cross sections at √ s = 45 and 62 GeV are presented. The values of the K ± π ± ratios are essentially independent of both √ s and x T = 2p T √s and are compatible with a strangeness suppression factor λ = 0.55. By contrast, the K − π − values fall with x T suggesting a gluonic origin of K − . QCD calculations agrees with the measurements.

We describe a search for psi(3770) decay to two-body non-DDbar final states in e+e- data produced by the CESR collider and analyzed with the CLEO-c detector. Vector-pseudoscalar production of Rho0Pi0, Rho+Pi-, OmegaPi0, PhiPi0, RhoEta, OmegaEta, PhiEta, RhoEtaPrime, OmegaEtaPrime, PhiEtaPrime, Kstar0 K0bar, and Kstar+K- is studied along with that of BOnePi (BOne0Pi0 and BOne+Pi-) and Pi+Pi-Pi0. A statistically significant signal is found for PhiEta, at an excess cross section of (2.4 +- 0.6) pb [Gamma_{PhiEta} (psi(3770)) =(74 +- 16)Mev], and a suggestive suppression of Pi+Pi-Pi0 and RhoPi. We conclude with form factor determinations for OmegaPi0, RhoEta, and RhoEtaPrime.
Cross sections at 3.671 and 3.773 GeV.
We observe a K−π+ state at 1786 ± 8 MeV with a width 95 ± 31 MeV in the reaction K−p→K−π+n at 6 GeV/c, from an experiment carried out at the Brookhaven National Laboratory multiparticle spectrometer.
ERROR INCLUDES SYSTEMATIC NORMALIZATION UNCERTAINTY.
We have performed a partial-wave analysis of the reaction K−p→KS0π+π−n at 6 GeV/c. We present the results of the analysis of about 4500 events in the low-t region (|t′|<0.2 GeV2) for the dominant waves in the 1200-to-2000-MeV mass range. We observe the 2+ K*(1430) and clear signals for the 1+ Q2(1400) and the 3− K*(1800). We find a new 1− resonance at about 1500 MeV and have some evidence for another 1− resonance at 1800 MeV. We also present the results of a partial-wave analysis as a function of t in the 1430-MeV mass region.
TP DEPENDENCE OF PARTIAL WAVES ALSO STUDIED.
We present an analysis of the K ππ system produced in 10 GeV/ c K + p interactions. We show that the low-mass enchancement between 1.2 and 1.4 GeV/ c 2 on the K ππ mass spectrum is predominantly 1 + throughout, give the relative amplitudes for the decay of this system into K ∗ (890) π and K ρ , and offer new evidence for the presence of two 1 + resonances in this mass region.

DIFFERENTIAL CROSS SECTION FOR THREE MASS BANDS IN Q-REGION. NORMALIZATION UNCERTAIN - NO UNITS FOR D(SIG)/DT GIVEN ON FIGURE. NUMERICAL VALUES TAKEN FROM THE COMPILATION LST7V2 FOX 72B. ERRORS ADDED AS 1/SQRT(EVENTS).
We present the results of a study of 1173 uniquely identified events of the K 0 π + p final state produced in 10 GeV/ c K + p interactions. This final state is dominated by the quasi two-body processes K + p → K 0 N ∗+ (890 p and K + p → K ∗+ (1420) p . The background is very low and there is little overlapping of resonance bands. We present cross sections, t -distributions and decay angular distributions for the contributing reaction channels. Dips are observed near t = 0 in the differential cross sections for all three processes.

We have studied the proper time distribution of coherent π + π − decays from a 3 – 10 GeV/ c K L o beam incident on a one meter liquid hydrogen target using a wire spark chamber spectrometer in the 3 0 neutral beam at SLAC. We find ∣(ƒ(0) − ƒ (0))/k∣ = 0.43 ± 0.11 mb , φ(ƒ(0) − ƒ (0)) = -101 0 ± 42 0 .

A search for production of D*−'s using the decay chain D0π−, D0→K+π−, was carried out at the Brookhaven National Laboratory multiparticle spectrometer with a 16-GeV/c π− beam and a hydrogen target. At 95% confidence level the upper limits for the product of peripheral production cross section by branching ratio are 2.4 nb for inclusive D*− production and 1.3 nb for the exclusive channel π−p→D*−Λc.
UPPER LIMIT TO CROSS SECTIONS.
We have carried out an amplitude analysis of the KS0KS0 system produced in the reaction π−p→KS0KS0n at 23 GeV/c, based on about 15 000 events in the low-t region (|t−tmin|<0.1 GeV2). Below 1.6 GeV/c2, our favored solution is very similar to those from previous analyses. For higher masses, we observe the KS0KS0 decay of the h(2040) meson. In addition, the l=0 partial wave contains a new state, strongly coupled to KS0KS0, with parameters M=1.771−0.053+0.077 GeV/c2 and Γ=0.200−0.009+0.156 GeV/c2. Since this state is most probably I=0, we call it the S*′(1770). We find an f′f production ratio of 0.23−0.13+0.14, and branching ratios for f-meson and h(2040)-meson decays into KK¯ of (3.1−1.7+0.7)% and (0.67−0.15+0.41)%, respectively. We find, in a detailed comparison of our results with those from other experiments, that our solution is compatible with all known features of both charged and neutral KK¯ systems.

The inclusive production cross sections and mean multiplicities of π±, K±, p, and p¯ in e+e− annihilation at a c.m. energy of 29 GeV have been measured with the time-projection chamber at PEP, using ionization energy loss to separate particle types. On average, 10.7±0.6 π±, 1.35±0.13 K±, and 0.60±0.08 p,p¯ are contained in an annihilation event. The fraction of pions among final-state particles decreases from over 95% at 0.3 GeV/c momentum to about 60% at high momentum; the kaon and proton fractions rise correspondingly.
