Abstract: (Springer)
Two-photon production of the exclusive final statesppˉ\bar p+nπ (n=0, 1, 2, and 3) has been investigated using the ARGUS detector at thee+e− storage ring DORIS II at DESY. The reactionsγγ→ppˉ\bar pπ andγγ→ppˉ\bar pπ+π−π0 have been observed for the first time, as have theΔ++ andΔ++\overline {\Delta ^{ ++ } } baryons in the final stateppˉ\bar pπ+π−. No evidence was found forΔ++Δ++\overline {\Delta ^{ ++ } } production. Topological cross sections for two-photon production ofppˉ\bar p,ppˉ\bar pπ0,ppˉ\bar pπ+π− andppˉ\bar pπ+π−π0, as well as the crosssection forγγ→Δ++pˉ\bar pπ+π−+c.c., have been measured. Upper limits are given for the cross section forγγ→Δ0Δ0\overline {\Delta ^0 } ,γγ→Δ++Δ++\overline {\Delta ^{ ++ } } andγγ→ΛΛˉ\bar \Lambda .
