Book Description
During the year 1973 the program goals of carrying out experimental and theoretical studies in intermediate energy physics were continued. Work at the Space Radiation Effects Laboratory on small-angle pion Coulomb multiple scattering from nuclei was completed, and the small-angle Coulomb--nuclear interference studies and total cross sections were continued. Experiments on p--d breakup were started and, in addition to observing quasi-free nucleon-- nucleon scattering, a strongly enhanced neutron--proton final state interaction was observed at 585 MeV for the first time. In July 1973 the outfitting of the Rice-owned portable laboratory was completed, including operation of the AEC-owned PDP-11 online computer system, and the laboratory was moved to Los Alamos, New Mexico (LAMPF). In the fall of 1973 the group aided the LAMPF staff in tuning the P3 pion channel. Principal collaborators in all this work were the University of Houston group. (auth).
