Abstract

Measurements of absolute elastic-scattering differential cross sections for π^±He at T^lab_π = 30.2 MeV, 45.1 MeV and 65.0 MeV and for π^±-⁴−⁴He at T^lab_π = 25.1 MeV and 51.1 MeV have been made in the angular range 40° to 145°. An overall accuracy of about ±5% was achieved. The results are compared with available theoretical calculations.

Unitary scattering theory of low-energy pions by light nuclei
1989, Nuclear Physics, Section A
The unitary theory of pion-nucleus scattering based on the method of evolution of the system with respect to the coupling constant is presented. The consistency theory along with the unitarity provides a correct separation of the potential effects from the nonpotential (true pion absorption) effect. The basic equations are formulated for the direct calculation of the pion-nucleus phase shifts. An iterative solution of these equations that is rapidly convergent at low energies (below ~70 MeV) is considered. The results of a unified description of both the low-energy scattering data and the pionic atom data for ⁴He, ¹²C and ¹⁶O are presented. Strong influence of the pion absorption on the elastic scattering channel at low energies is demonstrated. It is shown that a unique set of parameters of the absorption correction fitted to pionic atom data provides a good quantitative description of the pion elastic scattering data at energies up to 50 MeV.
The quasi-free 3He(e, e′p) reaction
1987, Nuclear Physics, Section A
The proton spectral function has experimentally been determined with the ³He(e, e′p) reaction for missing energies, 0<E_m<70MeV, and recoil momenta, 0<P_B<310 MeV/c. Experimental results are obtained for both the two-body, ³He(e, e′p)²H, and three-body breakup processes. Proton momentum density distributions, obtained in a PWIA analysis, are compared with theoretical calculations: Faddeev solutions with the RSC and Paris potentials, and variational calculations with various potentials, including those with a three-nucleon interaction term. Energy-weighted sum rule results are presented and compared with theoretical predictions. The coincidence cross sections are also compared with calculations which include the effects of final state interactions and meson exchange currents. Consistency of the results with PWIA is investigated in the framework of the Chew-Low extrapolation procedure.

A calculation of π-3He elastic scattering at low energies employing microscopic 3He-wave functions
1987, Nuclear Physics, Section A
We have calculated the differential cross sections and analyzing power for the elastic scattering of pions from ³He at incident pion energies of 20, 25, 30, 35, 45 and 65 MeV. For this purpose we have used a first-order optical potential, constructed from a microscopic (theoretical) ³He wave function. We took the Fermi motion into account in an exact way by calculating the complete Fermi integral. We have used different forms for the pion-nucleon interaction. We took the effect of true absorption into account via a nuclear density-squared potential, and we add the Coulomb potential to the nuclear optical potential according to the method of Vincent and Phatak. We made a detailed comparison with the model of Landau and Thomas. Our main conclusions are: (i) the factorization method is inadequate, (ii) the results are sensitive with respect to the off-shell pion-nucleon T-matrix, (iii) the density-squared absorption model, though giving good agreement with measurements, does not allow a meaningful physical interpretation of the parameter values.
