Description

The Track Sensitive Target technique has been used to isolate 5 000 events from the reaction π+p → π+pπ0π0 at 4 GeV/c. Channel cross sections are measured. The data agree with predictions from phase-shift analyses of π+π- data: The effect of the Ssup(*) is clearly seen. There is strong evidence against any narrow epsilon below l GeV/C2. (orig.)
