From a study of peripheral interactions wherein a negative pion of 12 or 18 GeV/c incident on a nucleon produced a pair of high-momentum pions, the pion-pion s-wave interaction was deduced. Normalizing to to the ϱo production cross sections, a pion-pion cross section falling smoothly from 50 mb (300 MeV) to 20 mb (600 MeV) is observed. The forward-backward asymmetry is negative for low dipion masses.

Z.Phys.C 41 (1989) 591, 1989.
Inspire Record 265091 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.15470

A search for pairs of highpT prompt photons produced in hydrogen by a 280 GeV/c incidentπ- beam has been carried out using a fine-grained electromagnetic calorimeter and the Omega spectrometer at the CERN SPS. Clear evidence for the existence of such events is found with a six standard deviation signal forpT>3.0 GeV/c. The cross-sections are consistent with beyond leading order QCD calculations. A discussion on the determination of αs is also presented.

A Partial Wave Analysis of the ($K^+ K^- \pi^-$) System Produced in $\pi^- p \to K^+ K^- \pi^- p$ at 16-{GeV}/$c$

Inspire Record 169445 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.44589

The reaction π − p → K + K − π − p at 16 GeV/ c was studied in the CERN OMEGA spectrometer and a partial-wave analysis (PWA) of the low-mass (K + K − π − ) system (1.3–2.0 GeV) was performed. Only states in the unnatural spin-parity series produced by natural parity exchange are important and they approximately conserve t -channel helicity. The 1 + S K ∗ K wave dominates the low-mass (K + K − π − ) region. We observe an enhancement in 2 − P K ∗ K wave at a mass of 1.7 GeV, consistent with the decay of the A 3 resonance.

The reaction π − p → φφ n has been isolated at 16 GeV/ c and its cross section determined to be 40 ± 10 nb. The φφ mass spectrum shows a threshold enhancement between 2.1 and 2.5 GeV. A successful description of the angular content of the φφ system requires two interferingss J P = 2 + states.

Production of Dimuons in 16-GeV/c pi p Interactions

Phys.Rev.Lett. 40 (1978) 136, 1978.
Inspire Record 121404 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.20920

A clear, prompt dimuon signal has been observed in a low-statistics streamer-chamber experiment with 16-GeV/c πp interactions. The good mass resolution makes it possible to identify the contributions from ρ and ω decays and η and ω Dalitz decays. An excess of events is observed in the mass region ∼400-600 MeV which is not accounted for by the above-mentioned decays.

Study of Pion Absorption Mechanisms in He-4 and Other Nuclei

The spectrum and yield of protons produced by 60-, 100-, and 200-MeV π+ and π− beams on targets of He4, C12, Ni62, and Ta181 have been measured at 45° and 90°. A distinct high-energy component is seen in the protons from He4, which is consistent with a two-body absorption mechanism. Its cross section at 220 MeV is somewhat larger than calculated from the π+ + D process. Possible evidence is also seen for multinucleon absorption modes. The data on heavier nuclei are consistent with earlier experiments.
