Pion-deuteron scattering at 330 MeV

  • Published:
Il Nuovo Cimento (1955-1965)

Summary

Pion-deuteron scattering at 330 MeV has been studied in the 15 in. hydrogen bubble chamber at the Lawrence Radiation Laboratory. The total cross-section was measured to be (55.5±2.97) mb, of which (13.3±1.17) mb is charged elastic, (33.9±2.60) mb is charged inelastic, and (8.3±0.85) mb is scattering into an all-neutral final state. The differential cross-section for elastic scattering is appreciably smaller than values obtained by straightforward application of the impulse approximation, suggesting that higher-order multiple scattering effects are important at this energy.

Riassunto

Si è studiato lo scattering pione-deutone a 330 MeV nella camera a bolle ad idrogeno del Lawrence Radiation Laboratory. La sezione totale misurata è (55.5±2.97) mb, di oui (13.3±1.17) mb si riferiscono allo scattering elastico carico, (33.9±2.60) mb allo scattering anelastico carico e (8.3±0.85) mb allo scattering in uno stato finale completamente neutro. La sezione d’urto differenziale per lo scattering elastico è sensibilmente minore dei valori ottenuti con la diretta applicazione dell’approssimazione d’impulso, il che suggerisce che gli effietti dello scattering multiplo di ordine più elevato sono importanti a questa energia.
