THE PHOTOPRODUCTION OF MESONS FROM 500 TO 1100 MEV

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4322262
The total cross section for the interaction gamma + p for photon energies from 500 to 1000 Mev is about 100 x 10/sup -30/ cm/sup 2/. Measurements were made with a liquid hydrogen target in the bremsstrahlung beam of an electron synchrotron. The reaction products are listed. The single meson processes show evidence for the existence of a resonance in the interaction near 700 Mev. The photoproduction of K/sup +/ mesons at 1000 Mev occurs with the creation of a DELTA particle and has a cross section about 1/50 that for pion production. (W.D.M.)
