Total (π+, p) and (p, p) cross sections in the momentum range 1.4 to 4.0 Bev/c are presented. These measurements, with an accuracy of approximately 2%, were made at the Berkeley Bevatron by using counter techniques. Pions were distinguished from protons by means of a gas-filled Čerenkov counter. The (π+, p) total cross section was found to be almost constant above 2.0 Bev/c at a value near 29 mb. The (p, p) cross section decreases gradually from 47.5 mb to 41.7 mb over the momentum range covered. Transmission measurements of π+-nucleus and p-nucleus cross sections in both good and poor geometry were made at 3.0 Bev/c. The results are compared with the predictions of the optical model. In contrast to most previous work at high energies, an essentially exact solution of the wave equation for a potential well with a diffuse edge was used. The values of the imaginary part of the optical potential that best fit the experimental data are in good agreement with the predicted values. No strong conclusion regarding the real part of the potential was possible. Absorption and total elastic scattering cross sections for Be, C, Al, and Cu are presented. The total elastic scattering cross sections from this experiment disagree with Wikner's for π−-nucleus scattering.

Photoproduction is studied at 2.8 and 4.7 GeV using a linearly polarized monoenergetic photon beam in a hydrogen bubble chamber. We discuss the experimental procedure, the determination of channel cross sections, and the analysis of the channel γp→pπ+π−. A model-independent analysis of the ρ0-decay angular distribution allows us to measure nine independent density-matrix elements. From these we find that the reaction γp→pρ0 proceeds almost completely through natural parity exchange for squared momentum transfers |t|<1 GeV2 and that the ρ production mechanism is consistent with s-channel c.m. helicity conservation for |t|<0.4 GeV2. A cross section for the production of π+π− pairs in the s-channel c.m. helicity-conserving p-wave state is determined. The ρ mass shape is studied as a function of momentum transfer and is found to be inconsistent with a t-independent Ross-Stodolsky factor. Using a t-dependent parametrization of the ρ0 mass shape we derive a phenomenological ρ0 cross section. We compare our phenomenological ρ0 cross section with other experiments and find good agreement for 0.05<|t|<1 GeV2. We discuss the discrepancies in the various determinations of the forward differential cross section. We study models for ρ0 photoproduction and find that the Söding model best describes the data. Using the Söding model we determine a ρ0 cross section. We determine cross sections and nine density-matrix elements for γp→Δ++π−. The parity asymmetry for Δ++ production is incompatible with simple one-pion exchange. We compare Δ++ production with models.

We present direct measurements of the total cross section for neutrons on protons and deuterons in the momentum range 0.7 to 3.6 GeVc. Using these and other nucleon-nucleon total cross sections, we evaluate total cross sections in the pure isospin states.

Anti-p p annihilations into four charged mesons from 1.6 to 2.2 gev/c

The following reactions have been analyzed: (1) p¯p→π−π−π+π+; (2) p¯p→π−π+K−K+; (3) p¯p→K−K−K+K+. Cross sections as a function of beam momentum ranging from 1.6 to 2.2 GeVc are presented. The percentage of resonance production in reaction (1) is examined using the maximum-likelihood (ML) method. The channel is dominated by ρππ and ρf production. The percentage of ρf decreases with p¯ momentum, while ρππ appears to increase. ML fits are also made to reaction (2); the reaction is dominated by K*Kπ, ϕππ, and ρKK production. An enhancement is seen in the Q region of the ππK mass spectrum at 1278 MeV, with FWHM (full width at half maximum) of 25 MeV. Six events are consistent with reaction (3). Mass spectra indicate that five events have at least one ϕ meson produced; one of these is a ϕϕ event.

Structures are observed in the vicinity of Plab=1.25 GeVc and 1.8 GeVc which are consistent with the structure observed in the p¯p total cross section.

We present the results of a formation experiment for the reaction K − p → Λπ 0 in the cms energy between 2200 and 2436 MeV with a total statistics of 10 eV/μb. A partial-wave analysis including these new data gives evidence for the existence of three resonances in the P 3 , D 5 and G 9 (or H 11 ) states in this mass region.

The Λ-proton elastic scattering cross section has been measured between 1 and 17 GeV/c in a bubble chamber experiment. These are the first measurements of the elastic cross section for pΛ>5 GeV/c. The Λ's were produced by 25-GeV/c proton interactions in a platinum target. The cross section falls from 22 to 4 mb over the region. No significant polarization is observed.

The differential cross sections of the elastic p p reaction have been measured at 1.2, 1.4, 1.8 and 2.6 GeV/ c incident p momentum. The measurements have been performed at the CERN PS using a system of multiwire proportional chambers. The angular region covers scattering angles from 0 to ∼200 mrad. Interference effects between the Coulomb and the nuclear amplitudes are used to derive the ratio of the real to imaginary part of the forward nuclear amplitude. These ratios are compared with theoretical predictions.
