Photoproduction cross sections of charged pi mesons from hydrogen and deuterium have been measured as a function of meson angle at gamma-ray energies of 200, 235, and 265 Mev. The angular range extends from 30° to 180° in the laboratory system. Absolute cross sections have been determined. A least-squares fit of the measured cross sections has been made to the expression A+Bcosθ+Csin2θ, which assumes only S and P wave scattering. The coefficients so determined are qualitatively consistent with electric and magnetic dipole absorption together with the assumption of a resonant state of angular momentum 32 and of energy close to 300 Mev. Comparison with neutral meson production indicates some direct charged meson production in the P state.

Inspire Record 69039 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.21508

We present results of an experiment to measure the differential cross section of the reaction π−p→π0n between the forward and backward peaks. The measurements were made at incident π− momenta of 3.67 and 4.83 GeVc. The t range 1.7<~|t|<~4.9 (GeVc)2 was covered at the lower momentum and 1.8<~|t|<~7 (GeVc)2 at the higher momentum. At the lower momentum the cross section is essentially constant between |t|=2.4 and 4.8 (GeVc)2 while at the higher momentum the angular distribution exhibits a broad minimum centered at |t|=4.4 (GeVc)2.

Study of the two-charged-particle final states of 3.9-gev/c pi+- p interactions including a longitudinal-momentum analysis of the one-pion- production channels

Inspire Record 68000 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.23677

We have analyzed the two-prong final states in π+p interactions at 3.9 GeVc. Our result for elastic scattering is σ (elastic) = 6.50±0.1 mb (statistical error only). We find the elastic slope to be 6.61±0.14 (GeVc)−2. We find the elastic forward cross section to be 40.0±1.4 mb(GeVc)2. We have applied a longitudinal-momentum analysis to the one-pion-production channel. We find the cross section for the reaction π++p→π++π0+p to be 2.30±0.06 mb and that for π++p→π++π++n to be 1.45±0.05 mb. For resonance-production cross sections in these channels we find Δ(1236)=0.60±0.07 mb, ρ(760)=0.86±0.06 mb, and diffraction dissociation = 1.69±0.11 mb. We find that we can satisfactorily fit all distributions in the one-pion-production channel without assuming any phase-space production. In the missing-mass channel we observe dominant Δ++(1236) production plus evidence for A2+ production.

Dip structures in pi+ p ---> rho+ p at 1.55-1.84 gev/c

Results of a high-statistics study of π++p→ρ++p at 1.55-1.84 GeVc are consistent with dominance of π and ω exchange close to threshold. A pronounced dip in ρ00sdσdt at −t≃0.4 GeV2 may be attributed to pion exchange with strong absorption.

Measurement of high momentum transfer pi- p ---> pi0 n at 5.9 gev/c

The differential cross section for π − p → π 0 n has been measured in the t range 1.8 ⩽ | t | ⩽ 8.2 (GeV/ c ) 2 by a counter-spark chamber experiment detecting the neutron and both π 0 decay photons. A broad minimum was found, centered at | t | = 5.2 (GeV/ c ) 2 .

Inspire Record 93415 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.27916

Results are reported based on a study of π − p interactions at 147 GeV/ c in the FERMILAB 30-inch Proportional Wire Hybrid Bubble Chamber System. We have measured the topological cross sections and separated two-prong elastic and inelastic channels. In addition, we have extracted leading particle cross sections using the increased momentum resolution of the downstream proportional wire chambers. We have compared our results with experiments and predictions of a simple fragmentation hyphothesis.

A Study of the Reaction anti-p n --> anti-p p pi- at 14.6-GeV/c

Brucker, E.B. ; Koller, E.L. ; Raths, O. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.D 10 (1974) 1373, 1974.
Inspire Record 89251 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.25045

From a 98000-photograph exposure of the BNL 80-in. deuterium-filled chamber to a 14.6-GeV/c p¯ beam we have extracted those events that fit the channel p¯n→p¯pπ−. The cross section for this channel is measured to be 730 ± 50 μb. The cross section for the reaction p¯n→Δ¯−−(1238)p is determined to be 130 ± 30 μb. Evidence for target dissociation is presented. A comparison with the reaction π−n→π−pπ− at the same energy indicates agreement with factorization.

Anti-p p Annihilations Into Four and Five Pion Final States in the t (2190) Region

Handler, T. ; Jacques, P. ; Jones, M. ; et al.
Nucl.Phys.B 101 (1975) 35, 1975.
Inspire Record 99552 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.36053

New data from a 600 000 picture exposure of the BNL 31 inch hydrogen bubble chamber to a separated antiproton beam have been analyzed to try to determine if the π + π − π + π − or π + π − π + π − π 0 final states contribute any broad or narrow structure in the T(2190) region. The resonance channel fractions determined by maximum likelihood fits are all consistent with smooth behavior through the T-region and therefore there is no significant evidence that any of these resonance channels contributes to the broad bump in the total cross section. The errors on some of the fractions, however, limit the sensitivity to ∼ 0.5 mb for enhancements in these channels.

Inspire Record 100695 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.21140

We present results from a study of high-momentum inclusive hadron production in electron-positron interactions at s=3.8 and 4.8 GeV. Comparison of the momentum spectra at these energies shows no scaling violation in the region x(=EEbeam)>0.7. At s=4.8 GeV the Kπ ratio for hadrons with momenta >1.1 GeV/c is 0.27±0.08, and the average number of charged hadrons is 3.6±0.3 for those events which have at least one charged hadron with momentum greater than 1.1 GeV/c.

Anomalous Production of High-Energy Muons in e+ e- Collisions at 4.8-GeV

Phys.Rev.Lett. 36 (1976) 558, 1976.
Inspire Record 100744 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.21103

In view of the possible production of heavy leptons or charmed states in e+e− collisions, we searched for anomalous muons with momenta pμ≳1 GeV/c. The inclusive cross section for nch>~3 has an upper limit of 96 pb (assuming isotropy). For nch=2 and noncoplanarity > 20°, an excess of muonic events is observed, corresponding to (dσdΩ)|90°=23−9+12 pb/sr; the probability that known processes produce the observed events is 2×10−4.
