Summary

Making an eikonal approximation in two relative momenta in a 3-body system, keeping trace of all recoil terms, and assuming that the ranges of forces responsible for πp and πn elastic scattering are small, we find the following form factor for the double-scattering term in πd → πd:

$$\left[ {1 + \left( {\frac{{\Delta \mu }}{{4kM}}} \right)^2 } \right]^{\frac{3}{2}} \left\langle {\frac{1}{{\varrho ^2 }}\exp \left[ {i\varrho \left[ {\frac{{\Delta ^2 }}{{8k}}\left( {1 + \frac{\mu }{{2M}}} \right) - \frac{{\mu B}}{k}} \right]} \right]\cos \left( {\varrho \frac{{\Delta ^2 \mu }}{{8kM}}} \right)} \right\rangle _d ,$$

, whereϱr[1+(Δμ/4kM)2]−1/2,B is the binding energy of the deuteron,μ, M are pion and nucleon masses, respectively,Δ is the momentum transfer in the πd → πd process. The above form factor should be compared with the ordinary one of Glauber

$$\left\langle {\frac{1}{{r^2 }}} \right\rangle _d $$

and with the form factor of Blankenbecler and Gunion, and Gottfried

$$\left\langle {\frac{1}{{r^2 }}\exp \left[ {ir\eta } \right]} \right\rangle _d ,$$

, whereηΔ 2/8k.

Riassunto

Eseguendo un’approssimazione iconale in due impulsi relativi in un sistema di 3 corpi, prendendo la traccia di tutti i termini di rinculo e supponendo che i raggi d’azione delle forze responsabili dello scattering elastico πp e πn siano piccoli, si trova il seguente fattore di forma per il termine di scattering doppio nel processo πd → πd:

$$\left[ {1 + \left( {\frac{{\Delta \mu }}{{4kM}}} \right)^2 } \right]^{\frac{3}{2}} \left\langle {\frac{1}{{\varrho ^2 }}\exp \left[ {i\varrho \left[ {\frac{{\Delta ^2 }}{{8k}}\left( {1 + \frac{\mu }{{2M}}} \right) - \frac{{\mu B}}{k}} \right]} \right]\cos \left( {\varrho \frac{{\Delta ^2 \mu }}{{8kM}}} \right)} \right\rangle _d ,$$

, doveϱr[1+(Δμ/4kM)2]−1/2,B è l’energia di legame del deutone,μ, M sono rispettivamente le masse del pione e del nucleone,gD è l’impulso trasferito nel processo πd → πd. Il suddetto fattore di forma deve essere confrontato con quello ordinario di Glauber

$$\left\langle {\frac{1}{{r^2 }}} \right\rangle _d $$

, e con il fattore di forma di Blankenbecler e Gunion e di Gottfried

$$\left\langle {\frac{1}{{r^2 }}\exp \left[ {ir\eta } \right]} \right\rangle _d ,$$

, doveηΔ 2/8k.

  10. In the application of the ordinary Glauber formula,i.e. that without recoil corrections, one usually takesk in the laboratory frame of reference, and, as shown byFranco andGlauber (10), the formula is the same as in the centre-of-mass system. However, for a discussion of recoil corrections a quantityΔ 2/8k is important, and in the c.m.s. it is much larger than in the laboratory system. For comparison, we put in Table 1 also the value ofΔ 2 whenk is the relative momentum in theπd c.m.s. In this last case our correction factor |F|2 can be 0.76 or even 0.15 in the double-scattering region or near by. Thus we can get a correction of about 0.50, or in other words about 2 depletion factors of the differential cross-section, which seems to be needed in the explanation of the experiment ofBradamante et al. (9). The importance of the πd c.m.s. and complications connected with it in considerations of the appropriate 2-body subsystems shall be given in our next report.
