Deep-subthreshold eta and pi0 production probing pion dynamics in the reaction Ar + Ca at 180-A-MeV.

Martinez, G. ; Charbonnier, Y. ; Aphecetche, L. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.Lett. 83 (1999) 1538-1541, 1999.
Inspire Record 508818 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.19447

We report on a measurement of subthreshold η and π0 mesons in the reaction Ar+Ca at 180A MeV. We find that the ratio of the η to π0 meson-production cross section is more than a factor of 20 smaller than the one expected from threshold-energy scaling of meson production. In addition, the multiplicity of high mt π0 increases faster with the centrality of the reaction than the multiplicity of the bulk of π0 mesons. This behavior is explained by the rescattering of π mesons in nuclear matter at the origin of most energetic particles.

Analyzing powers and partial wave decomposition of p n --> p p((1)S(0)) pi- at low energies.

Hahn, H. ; Duncan, F.A. ; Aclander, J. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.Lett. 82 (1999) 2258-2261, 1999.
Inspire Record 500174 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.19495

Analyzing powers for p→n→pp(S01)π− were measured at beam energies 353, 404, and 440 MeV by extracting the quasifree process from p→d→pppπ−. Partial wave amplitude analysis yields a significant contribution from the isospin 1, s-wave channel. This contribution is relatively much larger than that expected from theoretical models which have been successful in describing the isospin 1, s-wave channel behavior of pp→ppπ0 cross sections at threshold.

New measurement of the anomalous magnetic moment of the positive muon

Carey, R.M. ; Earle, W. ; Efstathiadis, E. ; et al.

The muon anomalous magnetic moment has been measured in a new experiment at Brookhaven. Polarized muons were stored in a superferric ring, and the angular frequency difference, ωa, between the spin precession and orbital frequencies was determined by measuring the time distribution of high-energy decay positrons. The ratio R of ωa to the Larmor precession frequency of free protons, ωp, in the storage-ring magnetic field was measured. We find R=3.707220(48)×10−3. With μμ/μp=3.18334547(47) this gives aμ+=1165925(15)×10−9 ( ±13ppm), in good agreement with the previous CERN measurements for μ+ and μ− and of approximately the same precision.

Spin-isospin flip giant resonances and shell dependence in Li-7 and Be-9 by pi+ photoproduction.

Shoda, K. ; Toyama, S. ; Takeshita, K. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.C 59 (1999) 3196-3207, 1999.
Inspire Record 504820 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.25696

The giant resonances of spin-isospin flip mode are studied by measuring the energy and angular distributions of π+ electroproduced from 7Li and 9Be nuclei. Several strong π+ groups are found and angular distributions of these groups are analyzed by distorted-wave impulse approximation calculations using the single particle shell model. The experimental cross section of the groups corresponds to an order of the charge exchange single particle transition strength, establishing them as spin-isospin flip giant resonances. The shell model nature of (γ,π+) results for 1p3/2 shell nuclei are summarized and presented together with previously published data. The obtained results are compared to previously published data for (π−,γ), (n,p), (e,e′p), and (p,2p) reactions. Strong transitions consistent with the giant resonance excitations from the 1s1/2 shell in the core and from the 1p3/2 valence shell are observed.

Measurement of gamma p --> K0 Sigma+ at photon energies up to 1.55-GeV.

The reaction γp → K 0 Σ + has been measured with the SAPHIR detector at the electron stretcher ring ELSA. The total cross section rises up to a peak value of 1.1 μ b at a photon energy of 1.4 GeV. The differential cross sections dσ/dΩ are consistent with being flat throughout the measured energy range. The first measurement of the Σ + polarization in photon induced reactions was obtained.

Measurement of the proton and deuteron spin structure functions g2 and asymmetry A(2).

The E155 collaboration Anthony, P.L. ; Arnold, R.G. ; Averett, T. ; et al.
Phys.Lett.B 458 (1999) 529-535, 1999.
Inspire Record 493768 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.27072

We have measured the spin structure functions g2p and g2d and the virtual photon asymmetries A2p and A2d over the kinematic range 0.02 < x < 0.8 and 1.0 < Q^2 < 30(GeV/c)^2 by scattering 38.8 GeV longitudinally polarized electrons from transversely polarized NH3 and 6LiD targets.The absolute value of A2 is significantly smaller than the sqrt{R} positivity limit over the measured range, while g2 is consistent with the twist-2 Wandzura-Wilczek calculation. We obtain results for the twist-3 reduced matrix elements d2p, d2d and d2n. The Burkhardt-Cottingham sum rule integral - int(g2(x)dx) is reported for the range 0.02 < x < 0.8.

Anti-p d annihilation at rest into pi+ pi- pi- p(spectator).

The Crystal Barrel collaboration Abele, A. ; Adomeit, J. ; Amsler, C. ; et al.
Phys.Lett.B 450 (1999) 275-280, 1999.
Inspire Record 500218 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.28089

A study of antiproton annihilation in liquid deuterium into π + π − π − and a spectator proton is presented. For a long time this reaction resisted a description by final state interactions which is surprising (and disturbing) given the success of the final state interaction model in other annihilation reactions. It is shown that the introduction of ρ (1450) is essential to get a reasonable description of the measured Dalitz plot. This resonance was never tried in previous attempts to understand this data. A possible isospin-2- ππ S-wave contribution was tested, but no evidence was found for such a contribution.

Evidence for a pi eta P-wave in anti-p p annihilations at rest into pi0 pi0 eta.

The Crystal Barrel collaboration Abele, A. ; Adomeit, J. ; Amsler, C. ; et al.
Phys.Lett.B 446 (1999) 349-355, 1999.
Inspire Record 498113 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.28121

A partial wave analysis is presented of two high-statistics data samples of protonium annihilation into π 0 π 0 η in liquid and 12 atm gaseous hydrogen. The contributions from the 1 S 0 , 3 P 1 and 3 P 2 initial atomic fine structure states to the two data sets are different. The change of their fractional contributions when going from liquid to gaseous H 2 as calculated in a cascade model is imposed in fitting the data. Thus the uncertainty in the fraction of S-state and P-state capture is minimized. Both data sets allow a description with a common set of resonances and resonance parameters. The inclusion of a π η P-wave in the fit gives supportive evidence for the ρ ̂ (1405) , with parameters compatible with previous findings.

Enhancement of strange and multi-strange baryons and anti-baryons in S W interactions at 200-GeV/c.

Inspire Record 500180 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.28123

Strange and multistrange baryon production is expected to be enhanced in heavy ion interactions if a phase transition from hadronic matter to a Quark-Gluon Plasma takes place. The production yields of Λ s, Λ s, Ξ − s, and Ξ + s relative to the production of negative particles are presented for sulphur-tungsten interactions at 200 GeV/ c per nucleon. These production yields are compared to those produced in proton-tungsten interactions and the enhancements of strange and multistrange baryons and antibaryons are presented.
