Abstract

Using data obtained with the bubble chamber BEBC at CERN, the inclusivef 2 (1270) meson production invp and\(\bar vp\) charged current reactions is studied. It is found thatf 2 production occurs mainly in events with a hadronic invariant massW≳7 GeV. In these events, the averagef 2 multiplicity is about half the average ρO multiplicity, and thex F andp 2 T distributions of thef 2 agree in shape with those of the ρO. The predictions of a semi-empirical model (Wells model) are in accord with the measured multiplicities atW>7 GeV, whereas at lowerW the model predicts too largef 2 multiplicities.
