Summary
About 25 000 interactions of antiprotons of kinetic energy between 57 and 178 MeV have been measured in a hydrogen bubble chamber. Elastic and inelastic total cross-sections have been determined at 15 values of the antiproton energy. The results are compared with theoretical predictions.
Riassunto
Circa 25 000 interazioni di antiprotoni di energia cinetica tra 57 e 178 MeV sono state misurate in una camera a bolle a idrogeno. Si sono determinate le sezioni d'urto totali elastica ed inelastica per 15 valori dell'energia dell'antiprotone. I risultati sono confrontati con le previsioni teoriche.
Резюме
Были проведены измерения около 25000взаимодействий антипротонов с кинетической энергией от 57 до 178 MεB в водородной пузырьковой камере. Были определены полные попечные сечения упругого и неупругого рассеяния для 15 величин энергии антипротонов. Эти резулятаты сравнивают◹я с теоретическими предсказаниями.
