Total reaction cross sections σR of (30–60)AMeV 4,6,8He and 6,7,8,9,11Li on Pb, and 2n-removal cross sections σ−2n of 6,8He and 11Li on Pb, were measured by injecting magnetically separated, focused, monoenergetic, secondary beams of those projectiles into a telescope containing Pb targets separated by thin Si detectors. All these σR’s (except 4He), and σ−2n for 6He and 11Li, are underpredicted by microscopic model calculations which include only nuclear forces. Better agreement is achieved by including electromagnetic dissociation in the model, for those projectiles for which either the electric dipole response functions or the dominant photodissociation cross sections were known. The cross sections σ−4n for 8He, σ−xn for 7,8,9Li, and (σ−3n+σ−4n) for 11Li were found to be ⩽0.7 b. All σR’s were measured to better than 5% accuracy, showing that the method is usable for other target elements sandwiched into a Si telescope.

Using a primary beam of 40 Ar at ∼1A GeV impinging on a Be target, the production cross-sections of light neutron-rich fragments from projectile fragmentation were measured at the projectile-fragment separator FRS at GSI. The experimental cross-sections were obtained for isotopes of the elements B to F both close to stability and near the neutron drip line. These data are compared to the results of the empirical parametrization EPAX. We also compare the results to those measured previously at LBL. As an additional result, the particle instability of 26 O has been confirmed.

Tensor polarization observables (t20, t21 and t22) have been measured in elastic electron-deuteron scattering for six values of momentum transfer between 0.66 and 1.7 (GeV/c)^2. The experiment was performed at the Jefferson Laboratory in Hall C using the electron HMS Spectrometer, a specially designed deuteron magnetic channel and the recoil deuteron polarimeter POLDER. The new data determine to much larger Q^2 the deuteron charge form factors G_C and G_Q. They are in good agreement with relativistic calculations and disagree with pQCD predictions.

Excitation functions AN(pp,Θc.m.) of the analyzing power in pp→ elastic scattering have been measured with a polarized atomic hydrogen target for projectile momenta pp between 1000 and 3300 MeV/ c. The experiment was performed for scattering angles 30°≤Θc.m.≤90° using the recirculating beam of the proton storage ring COSY during acceleration. The resulting excitation functions and angular distributions of high internal consistency have significant impact on the recent phase shift solution SAID SP99, in particular, on the spin triplet phase shifts between 1000 and 1800 MeV, and demonstrate the limited predictive power of single-energy phase shift solutions at these energies.

The Dalitz plot parameters G, H, and K are used in the standard parameterization of the matrix element squared (see PDG): M**2 = 1 + G*X + H*X**2 + K*Y**2,where X = (s3-s0)/m(PI)**2 and Y = (s1-s2)/m(PI)**2, s1 = (pK - pPI0)**2, s2 = (pK - pPI0)**2, s3 = (pK - pPI+)**2, s0 = (s1+s2+s3)/3.
We present the results of a search for the production of light elements in p¯p collisions at the Fermilab Tevatron collider. Momentum, time of flight, and dE/dx measurements are used to distinguish nuclei from elementary particles. A production ratio for deuterium to hydrogen is calculated and compared to the primordial value of the big bang model. Some evidence for tritium is found and none for helium isotopes.

We report on a measurement of the branching ratio of the rare decay ω→ηγ relative to the well known decay ω→π0γ. The ω’s are produced in pp¯→ηω and pp¯→π0ω. Eigenstate mixing and interference effects of the ω and ρ0 are taken into account, as well as coherent interference with the background. We find evidence for the non-resonant annihilation channel B(pp¯→ηηγ)=(3.5±1.3)×10−5 and limit the value of B(ω→ηγ) to the range of (0.7to5.5)×10−4 depending on the degree of coherence with the background.

The total cross section of the p d -> p d eta reaction has been measured at two energies near threshold by detecting the final proton and deuteron in a magneti spectrometer. The values are somewhat larger than expected on the basis of two simple theoretical estimates.
The first quoted error includes statistical and normalization uncertainties, the scond is that induced by the uncertainty in the excess energy.
