Abstract

The (π+, π) reactions leading to the double isobaric analog state are studied at pion energies 50 to 300 MeV, with14C as an example. Effects of nuclear structure, nuclear recoil, the reaction pathway and off-shell πN interactions are examined in detail. Our study reveals a very strong dependence of calculated cross sections on off-shell πN dynamics. Consequently, use of a self-consistent off-shell πN theory is essential to studying short-range nucleon-nucleon correlations from double-charge-exchange data. The present study further shows that reaction dynamics other than two successive pion single charge exchanges is needed to account for the experimental data.
