“…Early measurements of two-pion production initiated by nucleon-nucleon (NN) collisions were conducted with bubble chambers, where due to low statistics primarily only results for total cross sections were obtained [1][2][3][4][5][6][7]. In recent years the two-pion production has been measured from threshold up to incident energies of T p = 1.4 GeV with high accuracy by exclusive and kinematically complete experiments conducted at CELSIUS [8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16], COSY [17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24], GSI [25], and JINR [26]. Whereas initially proton-proton (pp)-induced twopion production was the primary aim of these measurements [8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][17][18][19], the interest moved later to proton-neutron (pn)induced reaction channels, after the first clear-cut evidence for a dibaryon resonance with I (J P ) = 0(3 + ) had been observed in the pn → dπ 0 π 0 reaction [16,20,21].…”
