Theoretical cross-sections of pion production by 450 MeV protons on various nuclei.

An expression for the differential cross-section of pion production by protons on nuclei is built up using the impulse approximation. It assumes the knowledge of free nucleon-nucleon pion production and takes account of the internal nucleon momentum distribution, the Coulomb potential, and the absor...
