Central emission of pions and search for a symmetry system
Abstract
Results are presented on the production of pions having the same direction as the incident particles, but opposite charge, in reactions of π+p at 8 and 16 GeV/ c, π-p at 16 GeV/ c and K -p at 10 GeV/ c. The dσ/ dp L∗ distributions in the region ¦p L∗¦<0.7 5 GeV/c are of the form exp (-A¦p L∗¦) , with unequal values of A in the forward and backward directions. A study is made of this asymmetry as a function of the mass and energy of the incoming particle.
