Pion double charge exchange on /sup 12/C at low energies

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev. C; (United States)
An excitation function from T/sub ..pi../ = 50 to 120 MeV at theta/sub lab/ = 35/sup 0/ and an angular distribution at 60 MeV have been measured for the pion double-charge-exchange reaction /sup 12/C(..pi../sup +/,..pi../sup -/) /sup 12O(g.s.)/. The cross section is found to decrease with increasing energy. The /sup 12/C excitation function and the angular distribution are very similar in shape to those of the double-isobaric-analog-state transitions observed for /sup 14/C and /sup 18/O, but the magnitude is a factor of 6 smaller.
