Title: A quark model calculation of yy->pipi including final-state interactions

Journal Article · · Physical Review C
OSTI ID:801504

A quark model calculation of the processes yy->pi+pi- and yy->pipi is performed. At tree level, only charged pions couple to the initial state photons and neutral pions are not exceeded in the final state. However a small but significant cross section is observed. We demonstrate that this may be accounted for by a rotation in isospin space induced by final-state interactions.
