Study of the Sigma-nucleus potential by the (pi^-,K^+) reaction on medium-to-heavy nuclear targets

P. K. Saha, H. Noumi, D. Abe +34

In order to study the Sigma-nucleus optical potential, we measured inclusive (pi^-,K^+) spectra on medium-to-heavy nuclear targets: CH_2, Si, Ni, In and Bi. The CH_2 target was use…
