Abstract: (APS)
In this work, we explore the NN→πNN reaction within a relativistic model for the NN and πNN coupled systems consistent with two- and three-body unitarity. After describing the theoretical input, we concentrate on some exclusive pp→pnπ+ observables. These are compared with the available data and with predictions from other models. In particular, we examine systematically the dependence of some spin observables on various components of the dynamical input. We identify and isolate some problems related to the present approach and we point out possible directions for future research.
