(. pi. /sup +- /,2N) reactions at 165 and 245 MeV

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev. C; (United States)
The (..pi../sup +/,2p) and (..pi../sup +- /, pn) reactions were studied by coincidence detection of the outgoing nucleons on C, Fe, and Bi at 165 and 245 MeV and on /sup 16/O and /sup 18/O at 165 MeV. The quasideuteron component is identified and found to account for only about 10% of the absorption cross section for carbon down to about 2% for bismuth. With corrections for the final-state interaction of outgoing nucleons it amounts to at most 40%. The data indicate that quasideuteron absorption following pion scattering is not likely. The absorption on T = 1 nucleon pairs is about 4% of that on quasideuterons.
