Measurements of inclusive pion electroproduction

Measurements of the inclusive pion electroproduction reaction e^-+p -> e^-+π^+/-+X made at the Wilson Synchrotron Laboratory are reported. Data were taken at points with nominal (Q^2, W) values of (0.6, 2.67), (1.2, 2.67), (2.0, 2.67) and (1.2, 2.15) in (GeV^2, GeV). A more complete angular distr...

Measurements of the inclusive pion electroproduction reaction e^-+p -> e^-+π^+/-+X made at the Wilson Synchrotron Laboratory are reported. Data were taken at points with nominal (Q^2, W) values of (0.6, 2.67), (1.2, 2.67), (2.0, 2.67) and (1.2, 2.15) in (GeV^2, GeV). A more complete angular distribution was taken at (1.2, 2.67). The virtual photoproduction cross section for π^+ + missing mass is studied as a function of missing mass, Feynman scaling variables, Q^2 and W. The invariant cross section show a simple behavior as a function of Q^2 and W. Its dependenc on P"^2, x' and φ is determined. Ausführliche Beschreibung
