Abstract

The combined cross section for absorption and charge exchange interactions of positively charged pions with carbon nuclei for the momentum range 200 MeV/c to 300 MeV/c have been measured with the DUET experiment at TRIUMF. The uncertainty is reduced by nearly half compared with previous experiments. This result will be a valuable input to existing models to constrain pion interactions with nuclei.
