The pion-proton differential scattering cross sections have been measured at 150 and 170 Mev. Measurements were made at eight angles using scintillation counters and a liquid hydrogen target. Statistical errors are of the order 5 percent or less. Phase shift analyses of the data have been made on the assumption that the total isotopic spin is conserved and that only .? and p waves are appreciably scattered. The angular distributions give no positive indication of any d-wave scattering.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
