Abstract

Differential and total cross sections for π + absorption on 12C are presented at incident pion energies of 100 and 165 MeV. This is the first time that this reaction has been measured with a combination of good energy and angle information over an extensive region of phase space. Results are compared to extensive Monte Carlo simulations in order to investigate the role of two- and multinucleon absorption processes in this nucleus. Signatures of ISI and FSI in the pion absorption process are also investigated, in order to explain the complex reaction mechanism implied by the data.
