Abstract

We have measured the angular distribution of π⁺ elastically scattered from $^{12} C at E ̄_{π} = 28.4, 38.6 and 48.9 MeV$ . The angular range was between 13° and 165° lab. Scattered pions were detected with two counter telescopes which required pion identification through the observation of the decay muon. Data agree well with calculations derived from the free πn scattering amplitudes when absorption effects have been included.

The continuity equation for the nuclear electric charge and convection current $▿ · j ̌_{N} = −α ρ ̌_{N} ρt$ has been used in an analysis of nuclear transition densities in ¹²C. The results differ considerably from the former derivations. The standard M1 and newly-calculated E2 nuclear structure input is applied to estimate the pionic cross sections. A consistent improvement in several instances over the earlier results has been achieved; the calculations agree nicely with data both in the (3, 3) resonance region and at lower pion energies.

The pion optical potential and its application to reaction processes

The gross features of the pion-nucleus interaction are studied within the framework of an optical potential approach. The optical potential is determined by a systematic analysis of the data on pionic atoms and elastic scattering. It is then decomposed into quasi-free and absorption terms through theoretical consideration of the reactive content. A method of calculating the absorption cross section using the optical potential with the above decomposition is proposed. It takes into account not only direct absorption from the elastic channel but also the absorption after the quasi-free processes. The calculated absorption cross sections are in reasonable agreement with the observed ones. The cross sections for inelastic, single-charge-exchange and double-charge-exchange processes are calculated as an extended application of the method. The results are consistent with the available data. Inclusive spectra of pions and protons are also considered in this approach. An application to the (γ, π) reaction is briefly discussed.
