We report a study of 20 exclusive reactions measured at the AGS at 5.9
GeV/c incident momentum, 90-degrees center of mass. This experiment c
onfirms the strong quark flow dependence of two-body hadron-hadron sca
ttering at large angle. At 9.9 GeV/c an upper limit had been set for t
he ratio of cross sections for (ppBAR --> ppBAR)/(pp --> pp) at 90-deg
rees c.m., with the ratio less than 4%. The present experiment was per
formed at lower energy to gain sensitivity, but was still within the f
ixed angle scaling region. A ratio R(ppBAR/pp) almost-equal-to 1/40 wa
s measured at 5.9 GeV/c, 90-degrees c.m. in comparison to a ratio near
1.7 for small angle scattering. In addition, many other reactions wer
e measured, often for the first time at 90-degrees c.m. in the scaling
region, using beams of pi+/-, K+/-, p, and pBAR on a hydrogen target.
There are similar large differences in cross sections for other react
ions: R(K-p --> pi+SIGMA-/K-p --> pi-SIGMA+) almost-equal-to 1/12, for
example. The relative magnitudes of the different cross sections are
consistent with the dominance of quark interchange in these 90-degrees
reactions, and indicate that pure gluon exchange and quark-antiquark
annihilation diagrams are much less important. The angular dependence
of several elastic cross sections and the energy dependence at a fixed
angle of many of the reactions are also presented.
