It is shown that the energy dependence of charge-exchange a2+ photoproduction (γp→na2+) agrees with a one-pion exchange mechanism. No evidence for the photoproduction of the a1+(1260) is observed. If the dynamics of a1 and a2 photoproduction are assumed to be the same, the absence of evidence for the a1 is shown to be consistent with either an extremely large a1 hadronic width or with an a1 of mass somewhat less than 1260 MeV.

Inelastic ρ0 photoproduction in the reaction γp→ρ0π+n is observed in the peripheral region |tγ,ρ0′|<0.12 GeV2. The data are consistent with the ρ0 production being due to a double peripheral mechanism which conserves s-channel helicity. The π+n produced in association with the ρ0 is also consistent with the same mechanism, although there is a distortion of the expected angular distributions in the π+n mass region of 1.3-1.5 GeV/c2.

Experimental results on antiproton-proton annihilations at 5 incident momenta in the range 1.22–1.35 GeV/ c into final states with at least one visible K 1 0 meson are presented. Based on a total of 5855 events, cross sections and resonance fractions for all experimentally accessible final states are determined. The total cross section for annihilation into strange particles with at least one visible K 1 0 is 2069 ± 45 ub. Copious resonance production is observed but there is no significant evidence for the formation of a resonance in the s -channel.

New data from a 600 000 picture exposure of the BNL 31 inch hydrogen bubble chamber to a separated antiproton beam have been analyzed to try to determine if the π + π − π + π − or π + π − π + π − π 0 final states contribute any broad or narrow structure in the T(2190) region. The resonance channel fractions determined by maximum likelihood fits are all consistent with smooth behavior through the T-region and therefore there is no significant evidence that any of these resonance channels contributes to the broad bump in the total cross section. The errors on some of the fractions, however, limit the sensitivity to ∼ 0.5 mb for enhancements in these channels.

The production of KS, Λ, Λ¯, and γ in π−p collisions at 147 GeV/c is analyzed. Cross sections, rapidity, Feynman-x, and pT2 distributions are presented and compared to charged-particle production. The energy dependence of multiplicities in π−p and pp collisions is shown. A new scaling form for the correlation of neutral- and charged-particle multiplicities is presented for compilations of πp and pp data.

Charged hadronic four-body decays of D 0 mesons have been studied in the E687 photoproduction experiment at Fermilab. Branching ratios relative to the D 0 → K − π + π + π − decay mode for the Cabibbo-suppressed decays D 0 → π − π + π − π + , D 0 → K − K + π − π + have been measured and the first evidence of the D 0 → K − K + K − π + decay mode is reported. An analysis of the D 0 → K − K + π − π + resonance structure is also presented.

We have studied the inclusive production of K*±(890) and Y*±(1385) in pp, π+p, and K+p interactions at 147 GeV/c. The experiment used the Fermilab 30-inch hydrogen bubble chamber with the hybrid spectrometer system. Results are based on a sample of 1916 observed KS and 932 observed A. Inclusive cross sections are given for K*± and Y*± production from the three beams, and comparisons are made with experiments at other energies. Feynman-x and transverse-momentum-squared distributions are also calculated. The results suggest that the K*− is entirely produced in the central region, while the K*+ includes a component from beam fragmentation. Comparisons are made with the additive quark model.

From a 98000-photograph exposure of the BNL 80-in. deuterium-filled chamber to a 14.6-GeV/c p¯ beam we have extracted those events that fit the channel p¯n→p¯pπ−. The cross section for this channel is measured to be 730 ± 50 μb. The cross section for the reaction p¯n→Δ¯−−(1238)p is determined to be 130 ± 30 μb. Evidence for target dissociation is presented. A comparison with the reaction π−n→π−pπ− at the same energy indicates agreement with factorization.

We report on a study of the reaction, $\gamma p \to p \pi^+\pi^+\pi^-\pi^-\pi^0$, at an incident photon energy of 19.3 GeV. The most significant feature of this reaction is $\Delta^{++}$ production which occurs with a cross section of $0.6\pm 0.1 \mu$b. An upper limit is set for the cross section for the reaction, $\gamma p \to \Delta^{++}b_1^-(1235)$, and a search is made for resonances decaying to $b_1^\pm\pi^\mp$.

Results for the Cabibbo suppressed semileptonic decays D 0 → π − e + ν and D 0 → π − μ + ν (charge conjugates are implied) are reported by Fermilab photoproduction experiment E687. We find 45.4 ± 13.3 events in the electron mode and 45.6 ± 11.8 in the muon mode. The relative branching ratio BR (D 0 →π − l + v) BR (D 0 →K − l + v) for the combined sample is measured to be 0.101 ± 0.020 (stat.) ± 0.003 (syst.) 14 .
