Abstract
All the intermediate energy facilities currently possess research programs involving the use of nucleon probes to both elucidate detailed structure of the nucleon-nucleon interaction as well as to explore the high momentum characteristics of nucleon reactions with nuclear systems. In this paper I will present a review of recent experimental activity concerning the production of pions by both polarised and unpolarised nucleons incident on few-nucleon targets. I shall be concerned, primarily, with discussing recent results from LAMPF, SACLAY, SIN and TRIUMF, emphasizing those topics represented by contributed papers to this meeting. I shall endeavour to compare the results from the different laboratories with each other and with current theoretical expectations where such exist. The reaction types to be discussed include: NN → π x, N3He → π x, and will also involve some discussion of the 180° elastic scattering of nucleons by few-nucleon systems (x refers to anything, single or multi-particle final nucleon states).

The data of Albrow et al. were obtained using a polarised target and unpolarised beam. In order to facilitate comparison with other data, the results in Fig.4B have been plotted as though the beam was polarised and the target unpolarised.

According to Fearing21, the primary effect of distortion of initial and final wave-functions is one of normalization with very little in the way of angular dependence.
