A review of our works providing a theoretical description of incoherent pion photoproduction on the deuteron is presented. The existing $\gamma d\to\pi NN$ data are analysed, especially those obtained more recently by the CLAS Collaboration…
The current and near-future neutrino oscillation experiments require significantly improved neutrino-nucleus reaction models. Neutrino-nucleon pion production data play a crucial role to validate corresponding elementary amplitudes that go…
The production of d' dibaryons in heavy ion collisions due to the elementary process NN -> d' + pion is considered. The cross section NN -> d' + pion is estimated using the vacuum d' width = 0.5 MeV extracted from data on the double charge…
We study the two step sequential one pion production mechanism, $np(I=0)\to \pi^-pp$, followed by the fusion reaction $pp\to \pi^+d$, in order to describe the $np\to \pi^+\pi^-d$ reaction with $\pi^+\pi^-$ in $I=0$, where a narrow peak, so…
A model is presented to describe electromagnetically induced two-nucleon emission processes in a shell-model picture. Distortions in the outgoing nucleon waves are accounted for by performing a partial-wave expansion in a real mean-field…
The complete one-loop QED initial state, final state and initial--final state interference corrections to the process e+e- -> pi+pi- are presented. Analytic formulae are given for the virtual and for the real photon corrections. The total…
The cross section for the dd -> 4He pi pi reaction is estimated near threshold in a two-step model where a pion created in a first interaction produces a second pion in a subsequent interaction. This approach, which describes well the rates…
We present a theory of neutrino interactions with nuclei aimed at the description of the partial cross-sections, namely quasi-elastic and multi-nucleon emission, coherent and incoherent single pion production. For this purpose, we use the…

The nonresonant mechanism in the reactions $e^+\,e^-\to \pi^-\,p\,\bar{n}$ and $e^+\,e^-\to \pi^+\,n\,\bar{p}$ is investigated in frame of the one-photon exchange approximation. The description of the hadronic phase space and the invariant…
Results are presented for a combined analysis of the reactions $pp\to pp$, $\pi d\to \pi d$ and $\pi d\to pp$ over the $\sqrt{s}$ interval from pion threshold to approximately 2.4 GeV. These results for $\pi d\to pp$ and $\pi d$ elastic…
Based on the isospin-dependent Boltzmann-Uehling-Uhlenbeck(IBUU04) transport model, we explored effects of in-medium $NN$ elastic scattering cross section and nuclear symmetry energy on the sub-threshold pion production in…
Production of pions in proton-nucleus (p+A) reactions outside of a kinematical boundary of proton-nucleon collisions, the so-called cumulative effect, is studied. The kinematical restrictions on pions emitted in backward direction in the…
We use the Paris nucleon-antinucleon optical potential for explanation of experimental data in the process $e^+e^- \to p\bar p$ near threshold. It is shown that the cross section and the electromagnetic form factors are very sensitive to…
The impulse approximation (one-body operator) in the n p --> d pi^0 reaction is reexamined with emphasis on the issues of reducibility and recoil corrections. An inconsistency when one pion exchange is included in the production operator is…
Large momentum transfer reactions such as pion production represent the frontier of Chiral Perturbation Theory and must be understood before more complex reactions can be considered. Pion production is also interesting in its own right, one…
Predictions of the existence of well-defined deeply bound pionic atom states for heavy nuclei and the eventual observation of such states by the (d,3He) reaction have revived interest in the pion-nucleus interaction at threshold and in its…
First calculations for spin-dependent observables of the reactions $pp \to pp\pi^0$, $pp \to pn\pi^+$ and $pp \to d\pi^+$ near threshold are presented, employing the J\"ulich model for pion production. The influence of resonant (via the…

Recent experimental results show a large enhancement of the 2 pion emission on the scalar isoscalar channel, which had been predicted by some theoretical estimates. We present here a detailed calculation of the A(pi, 2pi)X process…
