We address the problem of pion production in low energy $\pi$-nucleus collisions. For the production mechanism we assume a simple model consisting of a coherent sum of single pion exchange and the excitation---followed by the decay into two…
The interference of the $\rho^0$ and $\omega$ mesons has been studied in the hadronic and leptonic decay channels, i.e., dipion and dilepton decay channels respectively, but this interference is not studied yet in the semihadronic or…
For coherent photoproduction of phi and omega mesons from deuteron at forward angles, the isovector pi-exchange amplitude is strongly suppressed. We show a possibility to study the non-diffractive channels associated with the unnatural…
Results of a combined analysis are presented for the production of $\omega$ and $\phi$ mesons in $\pi N$ reactions in the near-threshold region using throughoutly a conventional ''non-strange'' dynamics based on such processes which are…
