Multiplicity distributions of charged particles produced in the pseudorapidity range 0.9 < η lab < 5.5 were measured in oxygen-nucleus collisions for Al, Ag, and W target nuclei at incident energies of 60 and 200 GeV per nucleon. The multiplicity differential cross sections and the pseudorapidity distributions as a function of transverse energy are presented for the various target nuclei. The correlation between charged multiplicity and transverse energy is studied as a function of transverse energy. Data are compared with predictions of the IRIS and FRITIOF generators.

We present results of measurements on photoproduction of ρ mesons. Analysis of 106 measured ρ events in a four-dimensional data matrix dσ(A, m, p, t⊥)dΩdm with dimensions 14×20×10×20 yields precise information on nuclear density distributions for ρ production. We obtain for the Woods-Saxon radii R(A)=(1.12±0.02)A13 and, using the vector dominance model, σρN=26.7±2.0 mb and γρ24π=0.57±0.10.

Results from K± elastic and inelastic scattering from C12 and Ca40 are reported. The data were all taken at an incident momentum of 800 MeV/c over an angular range from 2° to 38°. The elastic data are compared to first-order optical model calculations in coordinate and momentum space; good qualitative agreement is obtained. The inelastic data (from C12 only) are compared to distorted-wave Born approximation calculations, and good agreement is found if "realistic" inelastic transition densities are used. Although a first-order optical potential description does not describe the data fully, there are strong indications of the increased penetrability of K+ over K− in this energy range. NUCLEAR REACTIONS C12(K±,K±)C12, Ca40(K±,K±)Ca40, E=442 MeV (800 MeV/c), measured σ(θ) for elastic and inelastic scattering, compared to optical model and DWBA calculations, deduced optical potential parameters; θ=2°−38°, Δθ=1°.

The energy spectra of deuterons recoiling from a deuterium gas target bombarded by transversely polarized 796-MeV protons have been measured to obtain the differential cross sections, dσdt, and analyzing powers, Ay(t), for p→-d elastic scattering over a range of laboratory angles from 4.53° to 13.02°, corresponding to a range of four-momentum transfer squared, |t|, from 0.013 to 0.108 GeV2/c2. Employing several sets of nucleon-nucleon, N-N, amplitudes obtained from N-N phase shift analyses, comparisons are made between the experimental data and the predictions of a multiple scattering theory. In this region of four-momentum transfer, Ay is shown to depend almost entirely on the spin-independent and spin-orbit N-N amplitudes. NUCLEAR REACTIONS d(p→, p)d, E=796 MeV; measured dσdt(θ) and Ay(θ); comparison with multiple-scattering theory using free N-N amplitudes, −t=0.013−0.108 GeV2/c2, Δt=1.88×10−3 GeV2/c2.

The cross section for elastic scattering of 794-MeV neutrons by deuterium has been measured for neutron center of mass angles from 139° to 179°. The angular distribution is fitted very well both by an empirical function αeβ(μ−μ180∘) and by a calculation that uses the one parameter Craigie-Wilkin triangle diagram technique.

The differential cross section for scattering of pions on deuterons was measured at LAMPF at laboratory momenta of 343, 441, 539, and 637 MeVc, using an E−ΔE method to identify the recoil deuterons. Angles ranged from 40° to 160° in the center of mass system. The momentum resolution was σ=±3.5% and the angular resolution was ± 1.70° in the laboratory system. The experimental method is discussed, and results are presented and compared with other experimental data as well as with various theoretical calculations.

Incident alphas on protons were used to measure the elastic cross section in the backward hemisphere at 3.20, 4.00, 5.08 and 6.00 GeV/ c . The level and shape of the angular distributions are strongly dependent on energy. A backward peak shows up at 4.00 GeV/ c and become much steeper when the energy increases.

The α-proton elastic scattering has been measured with α particles at equivalent incident proton energies of 438, 648, and 1036 MeV. A structure is observed at the position where a second minimum is expected in the differential cross section. Comparison with improved versions of the Glauber model are presented.
