Observation of "Peripheral" Backward Multipion Production at 2.15 BeV/c

Abstract

to be published. 6 The Doppler-shift program was written by S. Baker at Argonne National Laboratory, according to the work of E. Blaugrund, Nucl. Phys. 88, 501 (1966). 7 Agrees quite well with the recent measurement of 0.57e 2 b 3 by R. Broglia, J. S. Lilley, R. Perazzo, and W. R. Phillips (to be published) but is about 40 % lower than the values reported by J. F. Ziegler and G. A.

Inert Hadron Reaction for the Determination of the Pomeranchuk Trajectory Slope

“…As stressed previously, data on Reaction (2) can perhaps provide the only unambiguous determination of the Pomeranchuk parameters. Other recent determinations based on Regge analysis of ^p, 12 if^, 13 and pp 14 scattering with Pomeranchuk and secondary Regge poles and cuts also yield a Pomeranchuk slope in the range a '(0)^0.35 to 0.5 (GeV/c) (6) Although the evidence on the Pomeranchuk slope from these analyses of common elastic channels is more indirect, the overall consistency of the various determinations gives strong support for a sloping Pomeranchuk trajectory.…”

“…If it were not small, it could be separated off also, the argument going through completely unchanged. 6 K. M. Watson, Phys. Rev.…”
