Abstract

Elastic scattering of

K^{-}

mesons from protons in the backward direction has been measured to high accuracy in the momentum interval from 1.0 to 2.5 GeV/c. The cross sections exhibit a very fast decrease as a function of energy given by

\frac{d σ}{du} \sim s^{- 10}

. The data can be fitted either by a superposition of the known resonant amplitudes in the

K^{-} p

system, or by postulating the existence of a

Z^{*}

Regge trajectory.
