Covariant calculation of pion-/sup 4/He elastic scattering in the (3,3) resonance region

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev., C; (United States)
Differential cross sections for ..pi../sup -/-/sup 4/He elastic scattering were calculated at energies between 110 and 260 MeV. The analysis is completely novel since we have used a covariant multiple scattering theory, and a complete integration over the motion of the target particles has been carried out (instead of invoking the fixed-scatterer approximation). The full dynamical effects of nuclear binding and Fermi motion are considered as well as some modification of the free ..pi..N interaction. Theoretical results are in good agreement with the data.
