We present a new technique for analyzing multibody states. This analysis makes possible the selection of samples of events that contain only resonances, particle correlations, or phase space. A unique feature of this analysis is that every event in the data is assigned to a particular sample. The three-body final state π++p→p+π++π0 is analyzed as an example.

The pπ+π0 and pπ+π+π− final states from π+p interactions at 3.9 GeV/c have been analyzed by the prism-plot technique and the following three quasi-two-body channels have been studied in detail: π+p→ρ+p, π+p→π0Δ++, and π+p→ρ0Δ++. Results are presented on cross sections, differential cross sections, and single and joint spin density matrix elements. These are compared with the Dar-Watts-Weisskopf absorption model and Reggeized pion-exchange model predictions. Relations among joint spin density matrix elements for ρ0Δ++ are compared with quark-model predictions.

An Investigation of rho Meson Production in pi p Interactions at 3.9-GeV/c

We have investigated the ρ-meson production mechanism in the three reactions π±p→ρ±p and π−p→ρ0n at 3.9 GeV/c (s=8.2 GeV2) using the prism-plot technique. Differential cross sections at all momentum transfers are presented. A significant backward peak has been found in all three reactions. The differential cross sections for these backward peaks are given and are compared with the equivalent pion elastic and charge-exchange cross sections in the backward direction. Using a linear combination of the three differential cross sections we have isolated the I=0 exchange contribution in the forward direction. This differential cross section has a zero at −t=0.45 (GeV/c)2 and is fitted by the dual absorptive model of Harari with an interaction radius of ∼ 1.2 F. The total I=0 cross section is calculated and compared with similarly determined cross sections at higher momenta. An analysis of the properties of the other possible spin-parity exchanges is also presented.
