An analysis is presented of the reaction K − p → K 0 π − p at 4.2 GeV /c incident momentum, using analytical techniques in fully dimensional phase space. This methods allows to isolate the contributions of the 0 + , 1 − and 2 + (K π ) partial waves in various helecity Separating well-understood contributions from the rest, the method is particularly useful for the detection of small effects (≈1% of the total final-state cross section) not visible in the mass distributions: (i) small cross-section contributions of 3 − (K π partial waves, K ∗ (1780), are unambiguously isolated; (ii) 3.5σ evidence is given for Σ(1480) in the (p K 0 ) system; (iii) effects due to a second K π P-wave or the possible presence of a doubly peripheral mechanism are discussed. The method furthermore allows simultaneous treatment of the (K π ) partial waves, p π ) partial waves and their interferences and of a Σ(1765) signal (with spin 5 2 ). While interferences within the (K π ) and within the (p π ) systems are strongly determining the corresponding distributions, no interference between these systems is needed.

Partial Wave Analysis of $\bar{K} N \to \bar{K}^* N$ Between 1830-{MeV} and 2170-{MeV} Center-of-mass Energy Including New Data Below 1960-{MeV}

We present data for the single-pion production final states K 0 π − p, K − π 0 p and K − π + n from K − p interactions at 11 c.m. energies between 1775 and 1957 MeV. Using the K 0 π − p events the branching ratio (K s 0 → π + π − /K s 0 → all) has been determined to be 0.657 ± 0.011. New values have also been determined for the masses and widths of the K ∗0 (890) and the K ∗− (8990). These give a value of 1.5 ± 1.5 MeV for the electromagnetic mass splitting of the K ∗ . Differential cross sections and the spin-density matrix elements have been extracted for the reactions K − p → K ∗− p and K − p → K ∗0 n . An energy dependent partial-wave analysis of the K ∗ N channel from threshold up to 2170 MeV c.m. energy has been carried out yielding values for 17 resonant amplitudes for the expected Y ∗ 's and a new resonance, the S01(2030).
