Two Topics in Pion Physics. [Part] 1. Photoproduction of Neutral Pions From Complex Nuclei and the Pair-Correlation Function. [Part] 2. The Relative Rate of Absorption of Negative Pions in Hydrogen and Deuterium
Description:
A simple theory of the photoproduction of pi /sup 0/ mesons from complex nuclei based on the impulse and closure approximation is studied. The theory is compared with an experiment of Goodwin, Anderson, and Kenney that shows the dependence of the number of decay gammas from pi /sup 0/ mesons photo- produced from various nuclei as a function of the atomic number at 45, 90, and 135 degrees for incident photon energies from threshold to 350 Mev. The dependence measured near threshold and at 45 deg…
