Observation of a cross-section enhancement near mass threshold in e + e - → Λ Λ
2018
The process e(+)e(-) -> Lambda(Lambda) over bar is studied using data samples at root s = 2.2324, 2.400, 2.800 and 3.080 GeV collected with the BESIII detector operating at the BEPCII collider. The Born cross section is measured at root s = 2.2324 GeV, which is 1.0 MeVabove the Lambda(Lambda) over bar mass threshold, to be 305 +/- 45(-36)(+66) pb, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second systematic. The cross section near threshold is larger than that expected from theory, which predicts the cross section to vanish at threshold. The Born cross sections at root s = 2.400, 2.800 and 3.080 GeV are measured and found to be consistent with previous experimental results, but with…
Observation of a near-threshold enhancement in the ΛΛ¯ mass spectrum from e+e−→ϕΛΛ¯ at s from 3.51 to 4.60 GeV
2021
The process e(+)e(-) -> phi Lambda(Lambda) over bar is studied using data samples collected with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII Collider at center of mass energies root S ranging from 3.51 Ge ...
Threshold Electroproduction of Charged Pions from Light Nuclei
1977
Double-differential cross sections for the electroproduction of pions of both charges have been measured. We compare the data obtained for production near threshold from $^{12}\mathrm{C}$ and $^{16}\mathrm{O}$ with theoretical treatments employing both shell-model and sum-rule nuclear descriptions with full inclusion of the final-state interaction.
Near-threshold $\pi^-$ photoproduction on the deuteron
2018
The first experimental investigation of the near-threshold cross section for incoherent $\pi^-$ photoproduction on the deuteron $\gamma$ d -> $\pi^-$ pp is presented. The experimental technique involved detection of the ~131 MeV gamma ray resulting from the radiative capture of photoproduced $\pi^-$ in the target. The total cross section has been measured using an unpolarized tagged-photon beam, a liquid-deuterium target, and three very large NaI(Tl) spectrometers. The data are compared to theoretical models that give insight into the elementary reaction $\gamma$ n -> $\pi^-$ p and pion-nucleon and nucleon-nucleon final-state interactions.
