Description

The ratio Rba between the cross sections for the annihilation of anti p on n and on p bound in the 4He nucleus at four anti p momenta (at rest, 192.8, 306.2 and 607.7 MeV/c) has been obtained by the analysis of anti p4He annihilation events detected with a self-shunted streamer chamber exposed to the LEAR anti p beams. Rba increases from 0.42±0.05 at rest up to 0.66±0.09 at 607.7 MeV/c. The results are discussed in the light of Glauber theory analyses of anti p2He and anti p-nucleus data. (orig.)
