Reaction /sup 2/H(p,d. pi. /sup +/)n at 506 MeV

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev. C; (United States)
Differential cross sections for the reaction /sup 2/H(p,d..pi../sup +/)n have been obtained at 506 MeV. The deuteron angles were 11/sup 0/, 13/sup 0/, 15/sup 0/, and 17/sup 0/, and the pions were detected at 14 angles between 24/sup 0/ and 96/sup 0/. The data, covering the region of neutron recoil momenta 10 to 140 MeV/c, are analyzed using the plane-wave impulse approximation to extract a momentum density of the proton in the deu- teron. Systematic deviations from the plane-wave impulse approximation prediction are interpreted on the basis of a simplified calculation of the nd rescattering cross section.
