From a sample of 98 hyperon production events observed in a liquid hydrogen bubble chamber the partial cross sections for various final states are found to be: 2 + iT%-0.047,i:^7r 0 -0.011, (A°2°)i^7r + -0.014, (AW)K + mr + -0.002, all in millibarns. For the first four processes the values are in general agreement with those calculated by Ferrari using a one-pion-exchange model. Only one example of impair production was observed, indicating a cross section less than 0.01 mb.
Measurements have been made on 753 four-prong events obtained by exposing the Brookhaven National Laboratory 20-in. liquid hydrogen bubble chamber to 2.85-Bev protons. The partial cross sections observed for multiple meson production reactions are: pp-\-(p-\-p -•> p J rp J rir + -\-ir~), 2.67±0.13; pn-\--\-, 1.15±0.09; pp-\-0, 0.74±0.07; ir + -\-ir~-\-p is derived using an expression from the one-pion exchange model of Drell.
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.
