Data are presented on the charge-exchange ..pi../sup -/p scattering at a momentum 40 GeV/c at large momentum transfers. The experiment was performed with the 70-GeV Serpukhov accelerator using a 648-channel hodoscopic ..gamma.. spectrometer. The total statistics amounted to more than a million ..pi../sup 0/ mesons, making it possible to advance into the momentum-transfer region up to -t=1.8 (GeV/c)/sup 2/. The experimental data are compared with the optical model of the impact parameter. The imaginary part of the trajectory of the b/sub 0/(s) pole is determined from the slopes of the maxima of the function ..sqrt..-t dsigma/dt. A linear increase of Imb/sub 0/(s) with log s is observed.
