Abstract: (Elsevier)
The Δ interaction mechanism and its contribution to the pion-induced double-charge exchange reaction to isobaric analogue states at energies around the resonance region is studied and is compared to the conventional mechanism which involves two sequential single-charge exchange steps. The Δ interaction mechanism is found to be very sensitive to the choice of form factors; it gives rise by itself to cross sections ranging from 5% of the results from the conventional mechanism to values comparable to the conventional mechanism. The amplitudes from the two processes are out of phase by approximately 90° near T π = 180 MeV and hence, there is little interference. In particular the minimum of the differential cross section at T π = 164 MeV is not changed by the inclusion of the Δ interaction mechanism.- PI+ NUCLEUS: NUCLEAR REACTION
