We present preliminary results on the measurement of a variety of exclusive hadron interactions at center of mass scattering angles of 90°. Data are also presented which show the relative transparency of nuclei to πp and pp elastic scattering in this kinematic range.

We present a measurement and comparison of the χc1 and χc2 production cross sections determined from interactions of 300-GeV/c π± and p with a Li target. We find χc1χc2 production ratios of 0.52−0.27+0.57 and 0.08−0.15+0.25 from reactions induced by π± and p, respectively.
The cross section per nucleon. The differential cross section is fitted by the equation : D(SIG)/D(PT**2)= CONST*EXP(SLOPE*PT), D(SIG)/D(XL) = CONST*(1-(XL-CONST(C=X0))**2)**POWER(C=1) , and D(SIG)/D(XL) = CONST*(1-ABS(XL-CONST(C=XC)))**POWER(C=2).
The cross section per nucleon. The differential cross section is fitted by the equation : D(SIG)/D(COS(THETA)) = CONST*(1+CONST*COS(THETA)**2), where THETA is the angle between the MU+ and beam momentum in the CHI/C rest frame.

Quasiexclusive neutral meson production in pN-interactions is studied in experiments with the SPHINX facility operating in a proton beam from the IHEP accelerator (Ep=70 GeV). The cross sections and the parameters of the differential distributions for πo, ω, η and Ko production in the deep fragmentation region (xF > 0.79 ÷ 0.86) are presented. The results show that such proton quasiexclusive reactions with baryon exchange may be promising in searches for exotic mesons.

The dsig/dpt**2 distribution was approximated by the expression: dsig /dpt**2 = CONST(C=1)*SLOPE(C=1)*EXP(-SLOPE(C1)*PT**2) + CONST(C=2)*SLOPE(C=2)* EXP(-SLOPE(C2)*PT**2).
We present total and differential cross sections for charm mesons produced in 600 GeV/ c π - emulsion interactions. Fits to d 2 σ / dx F dp T 2 ∞ (1−| x F |) n exp (- bp T 2 ) for 676 electronically reconstructed D mesons with x F >0 give n =4.25±0.24 ( stat .)±0.23 ( syst .) and b =0.76±0.03±0.03 ( GeV / c ) -2 . The total inclusive D + and D 0 cross sections are σ ( π - N → D ± ; x F >0) = 8.66±0.46±1.96 μb nucleon and σ(π - N→D 0 D 0 ; x F >0)=22.05±1.37±4.82μb nucleonk, where a linear dependence on the mean atomic weight of the target is assumed. These results are compared to next-to-leading order QCD predictions.
Linear A-dependence. Different modes of the charm mesons detection were used (see text for detail). The differential cross section is fitted by the equation : D2(SIG)/D(XL)/D(PT**2) = CONST*(1-XL)**POWER*EXP(-SLOPE*PT**2).

Dimuon production is studied in 217-GeV/c π−-hydrogen and π−-beryllium collisions with a lead-glass array to detect photons associated with the ψ. The ψ−γ mass spectrum shows a 2.6-standard-deviation excess of events above background at ∼3.5 GeV. This excess, if attributed to the decay χ(∼3.5)→ψγ, implies that 0.70±0.28 of the ψ's are produced via radiative decay of one of the χ states.
E*D(SIG)/D(XL) is fitted by (1-X)**POWER.
The production of charmed particles by Sigma- of 340 Gev/c momentum was studied in the hyperon beam experiment WA89 at the CERN-SPS, using the Omega-spectrometer. In two data-taking periods in 1993 and 1994 an integrated luminosity of 1600 microb^-1 on copper and carbon targets was recorded. From the reconstruction of 930 +- 90 charm particle decays in 10 decay channels production cross sections for D, antiD, Ds and Lambdac were determined in the region xF>0. Assuming an A^1 dependence of the cross section on the nucleon number, we calculate a total ccbar production cross section of sigma(x_F > 0) = 5.3+- 0.4(stat)+-1.0(syst)+1.0(Xi_c) microb per nucleon. The last term is an upper limit on the unknown contribution from charmed-strange baryon production.
Fits to the DSIG/DXL and DSIG/DPT**2 distributions in the range XL > 0. Theerrors shown are statistical only.. The fits are of the following form:. DSIG/DXL : Const*(1-X)**N. DSIG/DPT**2 : Const*EXP(-B*PT**2).
The production cross sections for anti-charmed and charmed hadrons in the range XL > 0. The Errors are statistical only.
The total CQUARK+CQUARKBAR cross section in the range XL > obtained as the weighted average of the sum of all the measured contributions to the charmed andanti-charmed hadron production in the previous table. second systematic (DSYS) error is due to the uncertainty in the contribution of XI/C production to the cross section.
