Observation of an “ABC” Effect in Proton-Proton Collisions

Abstract: The cross section for inclusive multipion production in the pp → ppX reaction was measured at COSY-ANKE at four beam energies, 0.8, 1.1, 1.4, and 2.0 GeV, for low excitation energy in the final pp system, such that the diproton quasi-particle is in the 1 S0 state. At the three higher energies the missing mass MX spectra show a strong enhancement at low MX , corresponding to an ABC effect that moves steadily to larger values as the energy is increased. Despite the missing-mass structure looking very different a… Show more

“…NN no evidence for a significant ABC effect is found [9][10][11]-including the limiting case of a fusion to a quasibound pp pair in an s wave [11,12]. In all these cases the observables are well accounted for by Roper and t-channel ÁÁ processes.…”

“…In some ways the pp → {pp} s π 0 reaction is an ideal one to study at COSY because the 1 S 0 diproton configuration means that there are no spin degrees of freedom in the final state that have to be determined through a doublescattering measurement. The differential cross section was measured at 800 MeV at ANKE [132] by detecting both protons in the Forward Detector, with the π 0 being recognized from the peak in the missing-mass spectrum. However, this restricted the angular coverage to diproton c.m.…”

“…Such experiments are only possible at ANKE close to threshold where the spectrometer acceptance covers a large fraction of the solid angle. The programme involved the measurement of the differential cross section and analyzing power in pp → {pp} s π 0 [120], the differential cross section and analyzing power in quasi-free pn → {pp} s π − with a deuterium target [137], and the analyzing powers and spincorrelations in quasi-free n p → {pp} s π − with a polarized deuteron beam and a polarized hydrogen cell target [125].…”
