Description

We have studied theoretically the proton pick-up (d,3He) reactions leading to deeply bound pionic atoms. The forward scattering cross sections for an incident energy Td=600 MeV have been calculated using the effective number approach for the 208Pb target nucleus. It was found that the pionic 2p state has the maximum cross section among all calculated states. We conclude that (d,3He) reactions produce pionic atoms in a detectable manner
