Abstract
We have measured the differential cross section for the γ3He→π+t [y superscript 3 He → pi superscript + t] reaction. This reaction was studied using the Continuous Electron Beam Accelerator Facility (CEBAF) Large Acceptance Spectrometer (CLAS) at Jefferson Lab. Real photons produced with the Hall-B bremsstrahlung tagging system in the energy range from 0.50 to 1.55 GeV were incident on a cryogenic liquid 3He [superscript 3 He] target. The differential cross sections for the γ3He→π+t [y superscript 3 He → pi superscript + t] reaction were measured as a function of photon-beam energy and pion-scattering angle. Theoretical predictions to date cannot explain the large cross sections except at backward angles, showing that additional components must be added to the model.
