Abstract

The energy dependence of the total cross section for πd→pp below 1 GeV pion laboratory kinetic energy is described using a form similar to a previous parametrization of that energy dependence below 330 MeV. Measured angular distributions for the reaction below 1 GeV were fitted using a Legendre polynomial expansion. The energy dependences of the coefficients of the expansion have been fitted with a semiempirical form, giving a simple parametrization for the energy dependence of the differential cross sections for the reaction below 1 GeV.
