New Vistas in Physics with High-Energy Pion Beams - Preconference Workshop, DNP Fall Meeting 1992

Bys: B. F. Gibson and J. B. McClelland

This workshop gives an overview of the physics opportunities that would be created by high-quality, intense pion beams with energies up to about 1 GeV. Topics explored include hypernuclear structure studies using the (π, K) reaction, hyperon-nucleon scattering including polarization, high-energy pion-nucleus reactions such as absorption and double charge exchange, baryon-resonance investigations, and decays of the π and h mesons. The present status of high-energy pion beamlines and instrumentation as well as new directions in the field were also discussed.
