ELECTRO-PRODUCTION OF PIONS FROM NUCLEI

Journal Article · · Nuclear Physics (Netherlands) Divided into Nucl. Phys. A and Nucl. Phys. B

The contribution of pion production to inelastic electron scattering from nuclei through a given angle and with a given energy loss was calculated. The amplitude for the production from a single nucleon is taken from the work of Fubini, Nambu, and Wataghin. A Fermi gas model of the nuclear excitation spectrum is used in order to carry out the sum over final nuclear states. Both incoherent and coherert production are included. The cross sections are computed for energy losses above meson threshold and below the (3,3) resonance. Since the results are strongly dependent on the model of the excitation spectrum such experiments can give valuable information about nuclei. (auth)
