A study of charge symmetry breaking effects in elastic πsup(+-)d scattering

  • 1. Weizmann Inst. of Science, Rehovoth (Israel)

Description

We computed external and internal Coulomb distortions as well as strong charge symmetry breaking (CSB) effects in πsup(+-)d -> πsup(+-)d. Available data for Tsub(π) = 143 MeV indicate the presence of CSB on the level observed and deduced parameters for different δ-isobars and the pn mass difference. Data for Tsub(π) > or approx. 180 MeV are predicted to better suit the extraction of a measure of charge symmetry breaking. This note also contains a critical analysis of a previous study of CSB effects on sigmasub(πd)sup(tot). (orig.)
