Studies of parton fragmentation and baryon production with the TPC at PEP
Results are presented from the TPC on the analysis of 3-jet events, on the width of gluon jets versus quark jets, and on proton and lambda production and correlations.

Observation of inclusive. omega. production at large transverse momentum
We have observed the production of ..omega.. mesons at large transverse momentum produced in 200-GeV/c pBe interactions. The ratio of inclusive production of ..omega.. to ..pi../sup 0/ at transverse momenta above 2.2 GeV/c is 0.44 +- 0.08 near x=0. The upper limit for eta' to eta production is <1.4 in the same kinematic region.

COMPARISON OF HIGH TRANSVERSE MOMENTUM PI0 PRODUCTION FROM PI-, K-, P, AND ANTI-P BEAMS.
We compare high-transverse-momentum (P/sub perpendicular/) inclusive ..pi../sup 0/ production from ..pi../sup -/, K/sup -/, p, and p beams, at 100 and 200 GeV/c, for center-of-mass (c.m.) angles ranging from 2/sup 0/ to 115/sup 0/, and P/sub perpendicular/ .. ..pi../sup 0/X)/sigma (..pi..p ..-->.. ..pi../sup 0/X) decreases with increasing P/sub perpendicular/, and changes dramatically with c.m. angle. Also, the ratios sigma (K/sup -/p ..-->.. ..pi../sup 0/X)/sigma (..pi../sup -/p ..-->.. ..pi../sup 0/X) and sigma (pp ..-->.. ..pi../sup 0/X)/sigma (pp ..-->.. /sup 0/X) are approximately constant. The measurements are consistent with a theoretical viewpoint in which constituents of the incident hadrons undergo a hard-scattering subprocess.

Pion Charge Exchange Scattering at High-Energies
We report on a study of pion charge-exchange scattering carried out at Fermilab in the energy range 20 to 200 GeV. The results can be described remarkably well by a simple Regge-pole model. The charge-exchange cross sections in the forward direction lead to a prediction for the difference in total cross sections of ..pi../sup -/p and ..pi../sup +/p which is in satisfactory agreement with direct measurements of this difference in another experiment at Fermilab.

Killing tensors from conformal Killing vectors
Some years ago Koutras presented a method of constructing a conformal Killing tensor from a pair of orthogonal conformal Killing vectors. When the vector associated with the conformal Killing tensor is a gradient, a Killing tensor (in general irreducible) can then be constructed. In this paper it is shown that the severe restriction of orthogonality is unnecessary and thus it is possible that many more Killing tensors can be constructed in this way. We also extend, and in one case correct, some results on Killing tensors constructed from a single conformal Killing vector. Weir's result that, for flat space, there are 84 independent conformal Killing tensors, all of which are reducible, is extended to conformally flat spacetimes. In conformally flat spacetimes it is thus possible to construct all the conformal Killing tensors and in particular all the Killing tensors (which in general will not be reducible) from conformal Killing vectors.
