Abstract

I survey recent experimental results from studies of hadron interactions at Fermilab. Elastic, total and charge-exchange cross section measurements, diffractive phenomena, and inclusive production, using nuclear as well as hydrogen targets, are discussed in these lectures.

  47. It is uncertain, for example, how the latest parameterization of the Pomeranchukon contribution to total cross sections by Quigg and Rabinovici affects the asymptotic form of the theoretical expression for nc. Preliminary indications are that nc will rise more rapidly than that indicated by the B kn s rise in Table I.

Smith in this volume for an interesting comparison of the latest results for pt of 11+11- pairs produced in hadronic collisions as a function of the mass of the u+u-system. It appears that pt for p+u-pairs is larger than for produced hadrons of equivalent invariant mass.
