Tóm tắt

The differential production cross-section for pions above 0.2 GeV/c has been found for targets of Be, C, Cu and Pb bombarded by 1, 2 and 3 GeV protons at one or more of the angles 0°, 17° and 32°, using a magnetic spectrometer and time-of-flight telescope. The spectral shapes show some agreement with Monte Carlo calculations of Bertini. Isobar decay adequately explains the production cross-section, except at 0°.
