Exclusive measurements of the quasi-free $pn \to pp\pi^-$ and $pp \to pp\pi^0$ reactions have been performed by means of $pd$ collisions at $T_p$ = 1.2 GeV using the WASA detector setup at COSY. Total and differential cross sections have…
We present a model for dilepton production of proton-proton collisions using a realist T-matrix that by incorporating Delta-isobar degrees of freedom fits the NN-scattering data up to 2 GeV. The results we find differ in details from…
We construct a relativistic and unitary approach to 'high' energy pion- and photon-nucleon reactions taking the $\pi N, \pi \Delta$, $\rho N$, $\omega N$, $\eta N, K \Lambda, K \Sigma$ final states into account. Our scheme dynamically…
Compared in this work are a few sets of results, obtained from the pion-nucleon ($\pi N$) data at low energy (pion laboratory kinetic energy up to $100$ MeV) on the basis of the modelling of the $s$- and $p$-wave $K$-matrix elements (or of…
It is demonstrated within the dibaryon-induced model for $NN$ interaction that $pp$ scattering in $P$ waves is governed mainly by the production of the intermediate dibaryon resonances. Two dibaryon resonances with a mass of about 2200 MeV…
We calculate the cross sections for the $p(p,n\pi^{+})p$ and $p(p,p\pi^{0})p$ reactions for proton beam energies near threshold in a covariant one-boson-exchange model, which incorporates the exchange of $\pi$, $\rho$, $\sigma$ and $\omega$…
K+, K- and \phi meson production in proton-nucleus (pA) collisions has been calculated within a BUU transport model. It is shown that the nucleon-hyperon strangeness transfer channel is essential. The role of three-body reactions has been…
We investigate near-threshold $J/\psi$ photoproduction off the nucleon, focusing on hadronic rescattering effects induced by open-charm meson-baryon intermediate states. Beyond the conventional Pomeron-exchange mechanism, the $\bar…
The elementary production cross sections $\pi \Delta \rightarrow Y K$ $(Y=\Sigma,\,\, \Lambda)$ and $\pi N \rightarrow Y K$ are needed to describe kaon production in heavy ion collisions. The $\pi N \rightarrow Y K$ reactions were studied…
The production of antiprotons in $pp$ collisions is investigated close to threshold where experimental data about the total cross section are not available. We analyze the latter reaction within the LUND string model for inclusive $\bar{p}$…
The resonance effects are investigated in the $\phi$ meson photoproduction near threshold through a quark model approach with an effective Lagrangian. The diffractive contribution is consistently estimated by the {\it t}-channel Pomeron…

The production of backward nucleons, $N(180^\circ)$, at $180^\circ$ in the nuclear target rest frame in proton-nucleus ($\mathrm{p}+A$) collisions is studied. The backward nucleons appearing outside of the kinematically allowed range of…
We study the production of $K^+, \rho, \omega$ and $\phi$ mesons in $p + ^{12}C$ reactions on the basis of empirical spectral functions. The high momentum, high removal energy part of the spectral function is found to be negligible in all…
The cross section for production of Phi mesons in proton-nucleus reactions is calculated as a function of the target mass. The decay width of the Phi meson is affected by the change of the masses of the Phi, K+ and K- mesons in the medium.…
