S-wave pion absorption by nuclei

Conference · · AIP (Am. Inst. Phys.) Conf. Proc.; (United States)
OSTI ID:7250334
The absorption of pions by nuclei leads to an imaginary part in the optical potential for pionic atoms. The imaginary part is calculated by assuming the rescattering mechanism to dominate. The pion scatters off-shell by one nucleon and is absorbed by a second one. The ..pi..N scattering amplitude is constructed from a field theoretical model. Its off-mass shell properties prove important to reproduce the data.
