Polarization Phenomena in Fragmentation of Deuterons to Pions and Non-Nucleon Degrees of Freedom in the Deuteron

A. Yu. Illarionov, A. G. Litvinenko, G. I. Lykasov

The fragmentation of deuterons into pions emitted forward in the kinematic region forbidden for free nucleon-nucleon collisions is analyzed. It is shown that the inclusion of the n…
