Abstract

Negative pion transfer from pionic hydrogen to other heavier atoms was studied in some liquid organic compounds. The pion capture probability on hydrogen at a particular site in the molecules was obtained using deuterated compounds for alcohols and carboxylic acids. The transfer process to carbon atoms in different chemical states was also studied in the mixtures of C6 H12 or C6 H6+ CCl4. These methods revealed that the pionic hydrogen atoms originating from hydrogen in different chemical environments showed different behavior. The transfer process was discussed using a large mesomolecular model combined with an external transfer process.
