摘要
Pion-nucleus total cross sections are examined for pion laboratory kinetic energies between 400 MeV and 1 GeV. Modifications by the nuclear medium of the dominant D-13(1520) and F-15(1680) excited hadrons are investigated. Fermi motion and multiple scattering are found to broaden significantly the peaks in the cross section. Additional broadening as determined from a model of photon-nucleus total cross sections is found to further reduce the cross sections and increase the discrepancy between theory and data. The discrepancy, nearly energy-independent and of the order of 15-20 %, can be accounted for if one assumes the nuclear medium causes a 31-42 % increase in the strength of the pion-nucleon interaction in all channels.
