Photoproduction of $pi$$sup -$-mesons on deuterons monochromatic photons in the first resonance region

OSTI ID:4359257
Photoproduction of pi /sup -/-mesons on deuteron was studied in the first resonance region with an annihilation photon beam with adjustable peak energy (from 250 MeV to 400 MeV. A coincidence detection of both outgoing pi / sup -/-meson and forward proton was performed with a set of 9 multiwire proportional chambers (1700 wires) inside the gap of a spectrometer. The momertum of the second proton is computed from three-body kinematics; their distribution is found in excellent agreement with the spectator model, even at the top of the resonance. The differential cross sections of pi /sup -/ were measured from 100 deg to 180 deg (center of mass); they are in reasonable agreement with conventional multipole calculations and do not indicate an appreciable isotensor term.
