The production of neutral pions has been studied in the reactions 40 Ar + nat Ca , 86 Kr + nat Zr and 197 Au + 197 Au at 1 A GeV. For high energy pions emitted from the heavier systems a steeper than linear rise of the pion multiplicity with the centrality of the reaction is observed, indicating a pion production process other than binary nucleon-nucleon collisions. At low transverse momenta an enhancement of the π 0 -multiplicity increasing with the mass of the collision system is found. Systematic discrepancies between the experimental results and recent BUU, QMD and Cascade calculations are discussed.

Neutral pion production in the reactions O-16 + Al-27, Ni-58, Pb-208 at E(lab) = 95-MeV/nucleon

The production of neutral pions has been studied in the 16 O+ 27 Al, 58 Ni, 208 Pb reactions at 95 MeV/nucleon. Inclusive pion differential distributions d σ d p t , d σ d T π , and d σ d Ω have been measured by detecting the two-pion decay γ-rays in a setup of 8 lead glass Cherenkov detector telescopes. The data are discussed in the framework of a moving thermal source model. It is shown that the shape of the pion energy spectra is better described if mean field effects on the primary pion-production cross section and pion reabsorption are included in the calculation.
