The well-known class-A quark-model relations of Białas and Zalewski are parametrised in a particular form, where one can compare the data with the predictions separately for the meson non-flip and flip parts, defined in the transversity frame. A 3-parameter fit to the joint decay angular distribution is performed on the experimental data, and the results are compared with the quark-model predictions for various regions of the four-momentum transfer. The effect of an s -wave state under the ρ 0 is discussed.

Study of the Reaction pi+ p --> rho0 Delta++ (1236) at 16-GeV/c

The reaction π + p → ϱ 0 Δ ++ (1236) at 16 GeV/ c has been studied. Cross section, differential cross section, single and joint spin-density matrix elements are given. Correlations between the ϱ 0 and Δ ++ (1236) decay distributions are observed. Unnatural spin-parity exchanges, mainly observed at small t ' values, dominate the ϱ 0 Δ ++ (1236) production. The natural exchange contributions are only (7 ± 2)% and become as important as the unnatural exchanges beyond t ' = 0.3 GeV 2 . Contributions to Δ ++ (1236) helicity 3 2 states do not exceed 20% of the total ϱ 0 Δ ++ (1236) cross section and are mainly due to unnatural exchanges.

Cross sections, differential cross sections, density matrix elements and statistical tensors are given for the reactions π + p → ( ϱ 0 , ω ) Δ ++ at 13.2 GeV/ c . A discussion of the results in terms of particle exchanges, quark model or dipole coupling constraints, and the equal phase hypothesis is presented in some detail for the high statistics ϱ 0 Δ ++ channel.

Rho0 delta++ and omega delta++ joint decay correlations at 3.7 gev/c

The joint decay density-matrix elements have been measured for the ρ0Δ++ and ωΔ++ channels at 3.7 GeV/c. The data are presented as a function of momentum transfer in both the t-channel and s-channel coordinate systems. The presence of correlated decays is illustrated for both reactions by employing selective cuts on the decay angles of one resonance, and displaying the effects on the decay distribution of the opposing resonance. An amplitude analysis is performed with the data near 0° production angle, where we obtain a helicity decomposition of the scattering amplitude with no experimental ambiguity.

Cross sections for resonance production in the reaction pi+- p ---> p pi+- pi+ pi- at 16-GeV/c, as obtained by a maximum likelihood fit

Cross sections for resonance production in the reactions π ± p → p π ± π + π − at 16 GeV/ c are determined by a maximum likelihood fit, making use of the measurements of all individual events. The reactions are described by a simple parametrization based on an incoherent superposition of amplitudes for quasi two-body and quasi three-body processes and a non-resonant backgroud. In this way the reflections are accounted for in a consistent way. Thus cross sections are obtained for Δ ++ , Δ 0 , ρ 0 and f 0 production which do not suffer from the uncertainties of background subtraction typical of the usual technique of fitting individual mass distributions.

The non-strange four-prong events of π + p interactions at 3.5 GeV/ c are studied. Cross sections are calculated for all resonance productions in the channels π + p → p π + π + π − ( σ T = 3.18 ± 0.13 mb) and π + p → p π + π + π − π o ( σ T = 4.03 ± 0.16 mb). The dominant two body reactions Δ ++ ϱ o and Δ ++ ω o are investigated in detail, and production and decay distributions are presented as well as joint decay density matrix elements and joint correlation terms. The Δ ++ ϱ o reaction is compared to predictions of OPE with absorption and the Δ ++ ω o is compared to rho-exchange with sharp cutoff.
