Abstract
Neutral and charged two-pion production in p + d → 3He + 2π reactions has been studied at CELSIUS at a proton beam energy of 477 MeV. The total cross section for double pion production is 0.22 ± 0.03 μb. The ratio of the cross sections for the production of charged pion pairs with isospin T = 1 and T = 0 was determined to be σ(π+ π-;T = 1)/σ(π+ π-;T = 0) = 1.4 ± 0.4. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science B.V.
