The electromagnetic form factors of the neutron in the time-like region have been measured for the first time, from the threshold up to q 2 ⋟ 6 GeV 2 . The neutron magnetic form factor turns out to be larger than the proton one; the angular distribution suggests that for the neutron, at variance with the proton case, electric and magnetic form factors could be different. Further measurements are also reported, concerning the proton form factors and the Σ Σ production, together with the multihadronic cross section and the J / Γ branching ratio into n n .
The uncertainty on the evaluated cross section is given by the quadratic combination of the following terms: the statistical uncertainty on the number of events, the statistical and systematic uncertainty on the luminosity (about 6PCT), the systematic uncertainty on the efficiency evaluation, dominated by the scanning efficiency contribution (about 15PCT). The SQRT(S) values with (C=NOMIN) and (C=SHIFT) correspond to the nominal energy and shifted energy analysis (see text of paper for details).

J/ ψ and ψ ′ production cross-sections are measured in pp and pd collisions at 450 GeV/ c at the CERN-SPS. The Drell-Yan cross section for muon pairs in the mass range [4.3–8.0] GeV/ c 2 is also determined in the same experiment.

At the tagged photon facility PHOENICS at the Bonn accelerator ELSA a measurement of the target asymmetry of the reaction γp→pη from threshold to 1150 MeV has been performed. Simultaneously the reaction γp→pπ0 has been measured in the first resonance region. Results are presented for both reactions. The target asymmetry data are suited to put considerable constraints on the model parameters used for the theoretical description of meson photoproduction.
The errors include statistical and systematic errors added in quadrature. The target asymmetry determines as the rates belonging to different polarization states: (N_pol-up-N_pol_down)/(N_pol-up+N_pol_down).

The quasifree p+n→d+η reaction cross section has been measured at the threshold using 1295 MeV protons in the CELSIUS storage ring and an internal cluster-jet deuterium target. The kinematics is chosen such that the target proton can be assumed to be a spectator. The Fermi momentum of the target neutron is used to extract the energy dependence of the cross section by reconstructing the kinematics on an event-by-event basis. The data cover excess energies from threshold to 10 MeV in the center of mass of the final dη system. Approaching the threshold the cross section is enhanced compared to what is expected from phase space. This behavior is typical for a strong final-state interaction.

The double differential cross section for pn→pp(1S0)π− at three beam energies has been extracted from the quasifree process pd→pppπ−. A comparison is carried out with single differential cross section measurements for 3He(π−,pn)n, where the pion is thought to be absorbed onto a pp(1S0) “diproton” state. A significant difference is observed in the shape of the angular distribution between the production and absorption data. This difference is ascribed to the effects of the 3He nuclear environment characterizing the absorption process; however, an adequate theoretical explanation is not available.

The ratio of the exclusive production cross sections for φ and ω mesons has been measured in pp reactions at Tbeam=2.85GeV. The observed φ/ω ratio is (3.7±0.7−0.9+1.2)×10−3. After phase space corrections, this ratio is about a factor of 10 enhanced relative to naive predictions based upon the Okubo-Zweig-Iizuka rule, in comparison to an enhancement by a factor of ∼3 previously observed at higher energies. The modest increase of this enhancement near the production threshold is compared to the much larger increase of the φ/ω ratio observed in specific channels of p¯p annihilation experiments.

The total cross section for the π−p→π−π+n reaction has been measured at incident pion kinetic energies of 200, 190, 184, and 180 MeV. In addition, the π+p→π+π+n reaction was measured at 200 and 184 MeV. A fit of the cross sections by heavy baryon chiral perturbation theory yields values of 8.5±0.6(mπ−3) and 2.5±0.1(mπ−3) for the reaction matrix elements A10 and A32, which correspond to values for the s-wave isospin-0 and isospin-2 π−π scattering lengths of a0=0.23±0.08(mπ−1) and a2=−0.031±0.008(mπ−1), respectively.

We have observed a clear peak below the Σ+-production threshold in the 4He(K−,π−) reaction at 600MeV/c and θKπ=4∘. This is confirmation of the existence of the bound state of Σ4He, which was reported in the 4He(stoppedK−,π−) reaction. As in the case of stopped kaons, no such peak was found in the 4He(K−,π+) spectrum. Quantitatively reliable parameters for this level have been established. The binding energy and the width of the bound state are 4.4±0.3(stat)±1(syst) MeV and 7.0±0.7(stat)−0.0+1.2(syst) MeV, respectively.

The double differential cross section of low momentum kaons ( ≤0.3GeV/c) from p+C collisions at subthreshold bombarding energies has been for the first time measured by the use of the CLAMSUD magnetic spectrometer installed at the CELSIUS storage ring. Invariant cross sections extracted from the data show a source rapidity shifted below the nucleon-nucleon rapidity, in agreement with the existence of multistep processes in the K+ production cross section. The total cross section of the inclusive reaction 12C(p,K+) at 1.2 GeV was extracted and compared with recent data systematics as a function of the proton bombarding energy.
