Abstract: | This paper presents experimental results on π+π− production threshold from the collision of quasi-real photons. The data, obtained at the e+e− collider DCI, are a combination of the results from the DM1 and DM2 experiments. Using the e+e− and π+π− production for normalization and cross-checks, we observe a pion pair yield at low invariant mass (W < 500 MeV/c2) which is approximately twice the one expected from Born terms. |
