In this work we investigate the reaction $\gamma p\to\pi^-\Delta^{++}$ in the Reggeized model for $\pi(138)+\rho(775)+a_2(1320)$ exchanges in the $t$-channel. For a convergence of the reaction cross section at high energies the minimal…
The reaction e+ e- -> e+ e- gamma* gamma* -> e+ e- hadrons is analysed for quasi-real virtual photons using data collected by the L3 detector during the LEP high energy runs at sqrt(s) = 183 and 189 GeV. Preliminary results on the cross…
