Abstract:
We propose to study pp interactions with the Argonne 30" bubble chamber. Taking advantage of the backward-forward center-of-mass symmetry in pp interactions, we intend to emphasize the aspects of the problem which can readily be done with a small chamber; namely, the measurements of the backward hemisphere pions which have relatively low momentum in the laboratory. We request 100K pictures at 120 GeV/c and 100K pictures at 500 GeV/c and, with our existing data at 30 GeV/c, we will study several kinds of correlations as well as the energy dependence of the distributions. Approximately 10K events with one event/ub, will be measured at each energy.
