Anti-p p elastic scattering at 2.33 gev/c

Crawley, H.B. ; Kernan, W.J. ; Ogino, F. ;
Phys.Rev.D 8 (1973) 2781-2784, 1973.
Inspire Record 93330 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.22080

The differential scattering cross section is presented for p¯p elastic scattering at an incident laboratory momentum of 2.33 GeV/c based upon 11 758 events. The experiment was performed at the Brookhaven National Laboratory using the 31-inch hydrogen bubble chamber and an electrostatically separated beam. The attempts to fit limited regions of the data are presented for different parametrizations. The parametrization which corresponds to two coherent interfering exponentials successfully reproduces a very large t region for the scattering.

Whitmore, J. ; Oh, B.Y. ; Pratap, M. ; et al.

Inspire Record 123295 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.24482

Inclusive single-particle spectra for π± production are presented for data from π±p interactions at 100 GeV/c. The spectra for the four reactions π±p→π±+anything are compared as a function of laboratory longitudinal momentum, Feynman x, center-of-mass (c.m.) rapidity, and transverse momentum squared. Comparisons are also made between these data and analogous data from 16 and 18.5 GeV/c π±p interactions and the energy dependence is discussed. Average values of the transverse momentum are given as a function of the longitudinal momentum and charged-particle multiplicity. A comparison of the charge distributions is presented as a function of rapidity and c.m. energy.

$\pi^- p$ Interactions at 360-GeV/c: Measurement of the Total and Elastic Cross-Sections and the Charged Particle Multiplicity Distribution

Firestone, A. ; Anderson, E.W. ; Chang, V. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.D 14 (1976) 2902, 1976.
Inspire Record 3926 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.24670

In a sample of 108 563 pictures taken with the Fermilab 30-inch hydrogen bubble chamber, exposed to a 360-GeV/c π− beam, we have observed 19 453 interactions in a selected fiducial region. The observed charged multiplicity distribution has been corrected for the effects of scan efficiency, errors in prong count, missed close-in vees, secondary interactions, and neutron stars and for Dalitz pairs. The two-prong events have been corrected for losses at low −t. The total cross section is measured to be 25.25 ± 0.35 mb, and the elastic cross section is 3.61 ± 0.11 mb with an exponential slope of (8.82 ± 0.30) (GeV/c)−2. The average charged-particle multiplicity for inelastic events is 8.73 ± 0.04, and the second moment f2 is measured to be 9.83 ± 0.23.

Anti-p p elastic scattering at 2.85 gev/c

Crawley, H.B. ; Hafen, Elizabeth S. ; Kernan, W.J. ;
Phys.Rev.D 8 (1973) 2012-2015, 1973.
Inspire Record 93404 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.22063

p¯p elastic scattering at an incident beam momentum of 2.85 GeV/c is analyzed using 18 412 events. The simple exponential parametrization of the diffraction peak is found to be a poor representation of the data. Two other parametrizations are tried and the estimates of dσdt at t=0 and of the slope of the diffraction peak are found to differ significantly between various parametrizations. It is found that two coherent interfering exponentials are able to represent the differential cross section over the range 0.04≤|t|≤1.8 (GeV/c)2 with a χ2 probability of approximately 40%.

DIRECT OBSERVATION OF THE DECAY h0 (2040) ---> anti-p p

Lamsa, J.W. ; Firestone, A. ; Anderson, E.W. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.D 26 (1982) 1769, 1982.
Inspire Record 12398 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.23947

We have observed the decay h0(2040)→p¯p in the reaction π+n→p¯pp at 10 GeV/c detected in the large-aperture solenoid spectrometer at SLAC. We have measured the product of the cross section and branching ratio, σ(π+n→h0(2040)p)B(h0(2040)→p¯p), to be 0.84±0.17 μb. The moments of the angular distribution are consistent with the quantum numbers of the h0 meson being JPC=4++ and IG=0+.

STUDY OF THE OKUBO-ZWEIG-IIZUKA RULE VIOLATING REACTIONS PI+ N ---> PHI P AND PI+ P ---> PHI DELTA++ AT 10-GEV/C

Hendrickson, J.S. ; Denney, D.L. ; Gorbics, M. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.D 24 (1981) 2526-2528, 1981.
Inspire Record 171894 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.24036

We have measured the cross sections for the Okubo-Zweig-Iizuka-rule-violating reactions π+n→φp and π+p→φΔ++ at 10 GeV/c using the large-aperture-solenoid spectrometer at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center. We measure the total cross sections for these two reactions to be 179±72 nb for the φp reaction and 172±75 nb for the φΔ++ reaction. Both of these cross sections are consistent with the hypothesis of the φ being produced solely by its nonstrange-quark component as determined from the octet-singlet mixing angle resulting from application of the Gell-Mann—Okubo mass formula to the vector-meson nonet. These data are thus inconsistent with an ideally mixed φ meson.

Study of the Energy and Charged Multiplicity Dependence of Inclusive pi- Production in pi- p Interactions Up to Fermilab Energies

Morris, W. ; Oh, B.Y. ; Parker, D.L. ; et al.
Phys.Lett.B 56 (1975) 395-399, 1975.
Inspire Record 2113 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.27878

Using new data from 100 GeV c π − interactions, we find the energy dependence of the invariant cross-section in the target fragmentation (central) region to be consistent with an A + Bs − 1 2 (C + Ds − 1 4 ) behavior. The leading particle peak near x = + 1 exhibits a width in x which becomes smaller with increasing energy and an integrated cross section which is approximately energy independent.

Spin observables in elastic proton scattering from polarized He-3

Brash, E.J. ; Hausser, O. ; Cummings, W.J. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.C 52 (1995) 807-817, 1995.
Inspire Record 411136 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.25873

We have measured the absolute cross section σ(θ) and complete sets of spin observables A00ij in He3(p,p) elastic scattering at energies of 200 and 500 MeV. The observables depend on linear combinations of six complex scattering amplitudes for the p−3He system and provide a severe test of current reaction models. The in-scattering plane observables (A00mm, A00ll, A00lm, and A00ml) are all in quantitative disagreement with fully microscopic nonrelativistic optical model calculations and nonrelativistic distorted wave Born approximation calculations.

$\rho^0$ Production in $\pi^- p$ Interactions at 100, 200 and 360 GeV/c

Higgins, P.D. ; Shephard, W.D. ; Biswas, N.N. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.D 19 (1979) 65, 1979.
Inspire Record 7275 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.4591

Inclusive and semi-inclusive cross sections for gp0 production in 100, 200, and 360 GeV/c π−p interactions are presented. Differential cross sections for ρ0 production as functions of c.m. rapidity and transverse momentum are compared with the corresponding differential cross sections for pion production. Effects of various methods of estimating background on the values obtained for ρ0 production cross sections are discussed. About 10% of the final-state charged pions appear to come from ρ0 decay. Thus, while ρ0 production and decay is a significant source of final-state pions, other sources must contribute the majority of the produced pions.
