Abstract

The d d→α X 0 reaction at beam energies close to the η threshold shows very strong structure in the missing mass corresponding to the ABC enhancement. The deuteron tensor analysing power A yy , and the slope of the vector analysing power A y with respect to angle, have been measured for this reaction around the forward direction. Both signals are small, and their variations with the α-particle momentum are in broad agreement with a theoretical model in which each pair of nucleons in the projectile and target deuterons undergoes pion production through the NN→ dπ reaction.
