New experimental results on the π + d → π + π − pp and π + d → π + π + nn reactions at T π 1 = 283 MeV are presented. In-plane coincidence data were taken with the CHAOS spectrometer using pions from the M11 channel at TRIUMF. Because of the quasi-free nature of the pion-production reaction, the present study is equivalent to studying the elementary π + N → π + π ± N reactions on protons and neutrons simultaneously. These exclusive measurements provide a set of many-fold differential cross sections which are an ideal testing ground for microscopic models describing the πN → ππN reaction. The interpretation of the data relies on a model which is based on effective chiral Lagrangians to describe the piece of the reaction that includes only π's and N 's, and on effective Lagrangians to account for intermediate Δ's and N ∗ ' s . The measured many-fold differential cross sections are used to constrain some parameters of the model (ξ, f Δ , C, g N ∗ Δπ and g N ∗ Nπ ). Finally, the π + π ± invariant mass distributions display no evidence of strongly interacting pion pairs in either the I = J = 0 or the I = 2 J = 0 channels.

We present the inclusive and semi-inclusive production of protons, π+, π−, for the full range of kinematic variables, from 7850 inelastic interactions obtained in the 4.7 m liquid-hydrogen bubble chamber Mirabelle at the Serpukhov accelerator and with an incident proton beam of 69 GeV/c. We compare the data with those at other energies, and we give the results of different phenomenological fits.

Differential cross sections for pi- p and pi+ p elastic scattering were measured at five energies between 19.9 and 43.3 MeV. The use of the CHAOS magnetic spectrometer at TRIUMF, supplemented by a range telescope for muon background suppression, provided simultaneous coverage of a large part of the full angular range, thus allowing very precise relative cross section measurements. The absolute normalisation was determined with a typical accuracy of 5 %. This was verified in a simultaneous measurement of muon proton elastic scattering. The measured cross sections show some deviations from phase shift analysis predictions, in particular at large angles and low energies. From the new data we determine the real part of the isospin forward scattering amplitude.

Systematic measurements of π− elastic scattering on C12 above the Δ-resonance region are reported. The differential cross sections were measured at 610, 710, 790, and 895 MeV/c over an angular range from 5° to 50°. The obtained data were compared with the first-order optical potential model. In the forward region, agreement with the calculation increases with the incident momentum. In the backward region, however, the calculation underestimates the data. The total cross section was extracted, and its energy dependence shows that the effect of Fermi averaging is important.

We report on a study of inclusiveπ0 and η meson production inπ+p andK+p interactions at 250 GeV/c beam momentum. The Feynman-x spectrum ofπ0 is very similar in shape and normalization to that of negatively charged particles produced in the same experiment. The results are compared with data at other energies and with FRITIOF model predictions. This model overestimates the η cross section by a factor of 2.5. It reproduces theπ0 cross section correctly, but predicts a too hardπ0x distribution.

Differential cross sections for the reaction $\gamma p \to p \pi^0$ have been measured with the CEBAF Large Acceptance Spectrometer (CLAS) and a tagged photon beam with energies from 0.675 to 2.875 GeV. The results reported here possess greater accuracy in the absolute normalization than previous measurements. They disagree with recent CB-ELSA measurements for the process at forward scattering angles. Agreement with the SAID and MAID fits is found below 1 GeV. The present set of cross sections has been incorporated into the SAID database, and exploratory fits have been extended to 3 GeV. Resonance couplings have been extracted and compared to previous determinations.

We report results on rho(770)^0 -> pi+pi- production at midrapidity in p+p and peripheral Au+Au collisions at sqrt(s_NN) = 200 GeV. This is the first direct measurement of rho(770)^0 -> pi+pi- in heavy-ion collisions. The measured rho^0 peak in the invariant mass distribution is shifted by ~40 MeV/c^2 in minimum bias p+p interactions and ~70 MeV/c^2 in peripheral Au+Au collisions. The rho^0 mass shift is dependent on transverse momentum and multiplicity. The modification of the rho^0 meson mass, width, and shape due to phase space and dynamical effects are discussed.

The $\rho^{0}$ mass as a function of $p_{T}$ for minimum bias $p$+$p$ (filled circles), high multiplicity $p$+$p$ (open triangles), and peripheral Au+Au (filled squares) collisions. The error bars indicate the systematic uncertainty. Statistical errors are negligible. The $\rho^{0}$ mass was obtained by fitting the data to the BW×PS functional form described in the text. The dashed lines represent the average of the $\rho^{0}$ mass measured in $e^{+} e^{−}$. The shaded areas indicate the ρ0 mass measured in $p$+$p$ collisions. The open triangles have been shifted downward on the abscissa by $50$ MeV/$c$ for clarity.
