ABSTRACT
I survey recent experimental results from studies of hadron
interactions at Iernilab. Elastic, total and charge-exchange cross
section measurements, diffractive phenomena, and inclusive pro-
duction, using nuclear as well s-s hydrogen targets, are discussed
in these lectures.
NTRODUCTI ON
The momentous J/I discoveries of almost two years ago [I]
have put an unusually depressing damper on the entire field of
"old-fashioned" hadron physics. Subsequent to the J/. announce-
ments, every ahle-bodied experimentalist who had equipment in-
stalled on the experiment-I floor of' Fermilab abandoned all hIs
previous well-planned efforts to join in the mad search for charm,
color or what have you. (Unless your experiment involves a prompt
lepton trigger or has such key words a-s "search for narrow,. , r
the proposal, you are still regarded in some circles of Fermilab
as a myopic pariah.) Deapite all the frenetic J/9 related activity,
several groups have nevertheless managed to generate same outstand-
ing results on "hard-core" hadron physics. In these lectures I
will sunmariz~e some recent experimental and phenomenological in-
vestigations which I find particularly stimulating. I will try,
where possible) to present those results which tend to raise new
questions rather than answer old ones.
