Rivet analyses


title: MARKII_1990_I304882

$\gamma\gamma\to\pi^+\pi^-$ for centre-of-mass energies between 0.35 and 1.6 GeV

Experiment: MARKII (PEP)

Inspire ID: 304882

Status: VALIDATED

Authors: - Peter Richardson

References: - Phys.Rev.D 42 (1990) 1350-1367

Beams: 22 22

Beam energies: ANY

Run details: - gamma gamma to hadrons

Measurement of the differential cross section for $\gamma\gamma\to\pi^+\pi^-$ for $0.35 \text{GeV} < W < 1.6 \text{GeV}$. Both the cross section as a function of the centre-of-mass energy of the photonic collision, and the differential cross section with respect to the pion scattering angle are measured.
