Abstract: (Elsevier)
We have calculated the pp and pn η -production cross sections starting from an effective one-boson-exchange model. Unknown coupling constants were fitted to the elastic nucleon-nucleon scattering and to the decay rates of the N ∗ (1535) and the pπ − → nη reaction. We present both energy-integrated cross sections and energy spectra of η mesons.
