Nuclear-Coulomb Interference inπ+-C12Scattering

The small-angle scattering of ${\pi }^{+}$ from ${}_{}{}^{12}{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{C}$ was measured at 115, 167, and 242 MeV. The measurements covered the Coulomb-nuclear interference region from 3° to 10°. The real part of the forward nuclear amplitude was extracted from the data.
