Abstract

About 2000 six-prong events and 130 eight-prong events from an exposure in the Brookhaven 80-in. bubble chamber were analyzed. Production of Δ++(1238), Δ(1238), and ω0 resonances was observed. The distribution of Δ++ and ω0 as a function of four-momentum transfer was similar to that of background. Center-of-mass angular distributions of the nucleons and pions were examined. The nucleons were peaked backward and the pions were essentially isotropic with a slight forward peaking in the π+ case.
