Abstract
The production of pions is calculated in the Weizsäcker-Williams approximation. The pion-cloud of the projectile nucleus acts like a beam of pions scattering incoherently on the target. The size and energy dependence of the observed π-cross section at 0° degrees is in good agreement with this theoretical model.
