Monte Carlo Calculation of Single Pion Production by Pions

Abstract
A phenomenological calculation of single pion production in a pion-nucleon collision has been made using a 32, 32 isobaric nucleon model and a Monte Carlo type of calculation on a high-speed digital computer. The results are in good agreement with observations of pion production for incident pion energies of approximately 1.0 and 1.5 Bev.
