Low-energy pions in nuclear matter — •Oliver Buss1, Luis Alvarez-Ruso1, Ulrich Mosel1 und Radhey Shyam2 — 1Institut für Theoretische Physik, Universität Giessen, Germany — 2Saha Inst. Nuclear Phys., Calcutta, India
werden,
We use the the Boltzmann-Uehling-Uhlenbeck (BUU) transport model
to describe low energy scattering events of pions and nuclei [1]. Our
interest in such low energy events has been triggered by recent
photoproduction experiments of the TAPS collaboration [2] and
π-induced experiments of the CHAOS collaboration[3]. In these
experiments the σ-resonance is excited inside different nuclei
and it decays already inside the nuclear medium into a two-pion
final-state.
We have shown that also in a regime of large wave length the
semi-classical BUU model still gives reasonable results for
π-nucleus scattering. Hence it is a suitable tool to describe the
final state effects of the latter experiments. In addition we exploited
the Δ-hole model to investigate the influence of a mean field
potential for the pion on parameters like the mean free path and the
velocity of the pion inside the medium and observables like π- and
γ-induced [4] scattering events. We also compared our results to
fully quantum mechanical calculations.
