Abstract
A longitudinal phase space (LPS) analysis has been performed on the reaction π+p→π+π+π−p at 8 and 16 GeV/c. Special attention has been given to the question of the separation of the various reaction mechanisms. The conclusions are: (i) Dissociation of the pion can be clearly isolated, both at 8 and 16 GeV/c. Baryon dissociation is fairly well separated at 16 GeV/c, but at 8 GeV/c it is strongly contaminated by the reactions δ++ϱ0 and even more by δ++f; (ii) The cross section for diffraction dissociation dominated regions of LPS is constant or even slightly increasing between 8 and 16 GeV/c.
