The K+-production cross section in pn collisions is an important input parameter for model calculations of K+ production in proton-nucleus and nucleus-nucleus interactions. Experimental data in the close-to-threshold region are not yet available and theoretical predictions give a wide scatter of numbers for the ratio of the total cross sections [Formula: see text]. K+ production from pd interaction has been investigated using the magnetic spectrometer ANKE at COSY-Jülich at proton beam momenta 2.65, 2.81 and 3.46 GeV/c. For the extraction of [Formula: see text] from the pd data at low beam momenta, a naive phase-space approach has been used, assuming that [Formula: see text]. Double differential cross sections and missing mass spectra for proton-kaon correlations have also been analysed. Both methods give consistent result: [Formula: see text]. During a recent beam time, experimental data have been collected at pp=3.46 GeV/c for both hydrogen and deuterium targets. A ratio [Formula: see text] has been extracted from these data.

In beam cross section measurements of the 78Se(p,7)79Br and 80Se(p,7)81Br reactions have been carried out at Ep=1.4-3.5 MeV, by using high efficiency HPGe detectors with BGO shields for Compton background suppression. A preliminary analysis yielded total cross sections ranging from 10 μb to 3 mb. By means of the statistical compound nucleus theory of Hauser-Feshbach cross sections have also been calculated. A comparison between experimental data and theoretical predictions is presented.

The paper presents the results of measurement of the total cross sections for reactions 4,6He + Si and 6,7,9Li + Si in the beam energy range 5−50 A⋅MeV. The enhancements of the total cross sections for reaction 6He + Si compared with reaction 4He + Si, and 9Li + Si compared with reactions 6,7Li + Si have been observed. The performed microscopic analysis of total cross sections for reactions 6He + Si and 9Li + Si based on numerical solution of the time-dependent Schrödinger equation for external neutrons of projectile nuclei 6He and 9Li yielded good agreement with experimental data.

The method of Hara using two centre formalism has been employed to investigate positron–hydrogen molecule scattering at low incident energies. Two model potentials have been used to see the importance of the choice of effective potential. It has been found that the total cross sections are sensitive to the details of the effective potential. The present results are in qualitative agreement with measured values and other existing theoretical predictions.

The transverse momentum distribution of the differential production cross-sections of heavy flavored charm hadrons [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] in pp collisions at 7 TeV are simulated. Predictions of DPMJETIII.17-1, HIJING1.383 and Sibyll2.3c are compared to the differential cross-section measurements of the LHCb experimental data presented in the region of [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text], where the pp center of mass frame is used to measure the transverse momentum and rapidity. The models reproduce only some regions of [Formula: see text] and/or bins of [Formula: see text] but none of them predict completely all the [Formula: see text] bins over the entire [Formula: see text] range.

The absolute K-shell ionization cross sections of K and Lα X-ray production cross sections of I by 10–30 keV electron impact have been measured. The target was prepared by evaporating a thin film of compound KI to a thick pure carbon substrate. The effects of multiple scattering of electrons penetrating the target films, electrons reflected from the thick pure carbon substrates and bremsstrahlung photons produced when incident electrons impacted on the targets were corrected by using the Monte Carlo method. For K K-shell and I L-shell X-ray characteristic peaks, the spectra were fitted using the spectrum-fitting program ALLFIT to extract the Kα and Kβ peak counts more accurately for element K, and Lα peak counts for element I. The experimental results were compared with some theoretical results developed recently and available experimental data from the literature. The experimental data for I L-shell X-ray production cross sections by 10–30 keV electron impact are given here for the first time.

In 1970, on purely theoretical grounds, all total hadronic total cross-sections were predicted to increase without limit for higher and higher energies. This was contrary to the conventional belief at that time. In 1978, an accurate phenomenological model was formulated for the case of proton–proton and antiproton-proton interactions. The parameters for this model were slightly improved in 1984 using the additional available experimental data. Since then, for 30 years these parameters have not changed. This development, including especially the difficult task of formulating this phenomenological model and the comparison of the predictions of this model with later experimental results, is summarized.

The associate KΛ(1520) photon and hadronic production in the γp → K+Λ(1520), pp → pK+Λ(1520) and π-p → K0Λ(1520) reactions are investigated within the effective Lagrangian approach and the isobar model. We are interested in the contribution from the N*(2120) (previously called N*(2080)) resonance, which has a significant coupling to the KΛ(1520) channel. The theoretical results show that the current experimental data for the γp → K+Λ(1520) reaction favor the existence of the N*(2120) resonance, and that these measurements can be used to further constrain its properties. We present results, including the N*(2120) contribution, for total cross sections of the γp → K+Λ(1520), π-p → K0Λ(1520), and pp → pK+Λ(1520) reactions. For this latter one, we also calculate invariant mass and Dalitz plot distributions.

Total cross sections for positronium formation in e+-Li scattering have been studied in the framework of the distorted wave approximation in the energy range 1-50 eV by taking consistent account of the effect of the target distortion. The results are compared with existing theoretical predictions.
