OSTI ID:4938568
From 4th intemational symposium on multiparticle hadrodynamics; Pavia, Italy (Sep 1973). A Monte-Carlo selection method is presented in the full 3N-5 dimensional kinematic space and applied to the reaction pi /sup +/p yields pi / sup plus or minus /p pi /sup +/ pi /sup -/ at 11.7 GeV/c. The method is tested by compari ng the results with those from maximum likelihood fits and by applying it to a simulated experiment. The quasi two body reactions could be separated and their cross sections correctly determined. The method is shown to reproduce the differential distributions, at least of the more important reactions, without bias. (auth)
