An event mixing technique for Bose-Einstein correlations of two pions in photoproduction around 1 GeV

We have developed an event mixing technique to observe Bose-Einstein correlations (BEC) between two identical neutral pions produced in photo-induced reactions in the non-perturbative QCD energy region. It is found that the missing-mass consistency cut and the pion-energy cut are essential for the event mixing method to effectively extract BEC observables. A Monte Carlo (MC) simulation is used to validate these constraints and confirms the efficiency of this method. Our work paves the way for similar BEC studies at lower energies where the multiplicity of emitted bosons is limited.

Study of non-strange dibaryon resonances via coherent double neutral-pion photoproduction on the deuteron

The cross sections was measured for coherent double neutral-pion photoproduction on the deuteron using the tagged photon beams from the 0.9 and 1.2 GeV primary electron beams at the Research Center for Electron Photon Science, Tohoku University, Japan. The four-momenta of the four photons from the two π0 decays and deuteron are measured with the FOREST detector, and theγd → π0π0d reaction was identified using 6-constraint kinematic fit (energy and threemomentum conservation, and two π0 masses). The total cross section is found to be 18 .4±9.2 nb for the d∗(2380) dibaryon resonance at Wγd = 2.37 GeV, which is a candidate of the isoscalar ∆∆ quasi-bound state D03, in theγd → π0π0d reaction. The measured excitation function is consistent with the existing theoretical calculation for this reaction. At high incident energies, π0d invariant-mass distributions show a peak at approximately 2.15 GeV, which can be attributed to a N∆ quasi-bound state D12. In this contribution, the properties (mass, width, and decay angular distribution) of this peak is presented.
