The study of the proton-proton collisions at the beam momentum 1628 MeV/c

The detailed investigation of the single pion production reactions $pp\to pnπ^{+}$ and $pp\to ppπ^{o}$ at the incident proton momentum 1628 MeV/c has been carried out. The data are analyzed in the framework of the event-by-event maximum likelihood method together with the $pp\to ppπ^{0}$ data measured earlier in the energy region below 1 GeV. At 1628 MeV/c the largest contributions stem from the $^{3}P_{2}$, $^{3}P_{1}$, $^{3}P_{0}$, $^{1}D_{2}$ and $^{3}F_{2}$ initial partial waves.

The study of the negative pion production in neutron-proton collisions at beam momenta below 1.8 GeV/c

A detailed investigation of the reaction np -> ppπ^{-} has been carried out using the data obtained with the continuous neutron beam produced by charge exchange scattering of protons off a deuterium target. A partial wave event-by-event based maximum likelihood analysis was applied to determine contributions of different partial waves to the pion production process. The combined analysis of the np -> ppπ^{-} and pp -> ppπ^{0} data measured in the same energy region allows us to determine the contribution of isoscalar partial waves (I=0) in the momentum range from 1.1 up to 1.8 GeV/c. The decay of isoscalar partial waves into (^1S_0)_{pp}π$ channel provides a good tool for a determination of the pp S-wave scalar scattering length in the final state which was found to be a_{pp}=-7.5\pm 0.3 fm.
