The results of the measurements of the double-differential production cross-sections of pions in p-C and $pi^pm$-C interactions using the forward spectrometer of the HARP experiment are presented. The incident particles are 12 GeV/c protons and charged pions directed onto a carbon target with a thickness of 5% of a nuclear interaction length. For p-C interactions the analysis is performed using 100035 reconstructed secondary tracks, while the corresponding numbers of tracks for $pi^-$-C and $pi^+$-C analyses are 106534 and 10122 respectively. Cross-section results are presented in the kinematic range 0.5 GeV/c $leq p_{pi} <$ 8 GeV/c and 30 mrad $leq theta_{pi} <$ 240 mrad in the laboratory frame. The measured cross-sections have a direct impact on the precise calculation of atmospheric neutrino fluxes and on the improved reliability of extensive air shower simulations by reducing the uncertainties of hadronic interaction models in the low energy range.

This paper presents several measurements of total production cross sections and total inelastic cross sections for the following reactions: $pi^{+}$+C, $pi^{+}$+Al, $K^{+}$+C, $K^{+}$+Al at 60 GeV/c, $pi^{+}$+C and $pi^{+}$+Al at 31 GeV/c . The measu rements were made using the NA61/SHINE spectrometer at the CERN SPS. Comparisons with previous measurements are given and good agreement is seen. These interaction cross sections measurements are a key ingredient for neutrino flux prediction from the reinteractions of secondary hadrons in current and future accelerator-based long-baseline neutrino experiments.
The use of nuclear transparency effect of pi^{-}-mesons in proton, and deuteron induced interactions with carbon nuclei at 4.2A GeV/c, to get information about the properties of nuclear matter, is presented in this work. Half angle (theta_{1/2}) tech nique is used to extract information on nuclear transparency effect. The theta_{1/2} divides the multiplicity of charged particles into two equal parts depending on their polar angle in the lab. frame in pp interactions. Particles with angle smaller than (incone particles) and greater than (outcone particles) theta_{1/2} are considered separate. The average values of multiplicity, momentum and transverse momentum of the pi^{-}-mesons are analyzed as a function of a number of identified protons in an event. We observed evidences in the data which could be considered as transparency effect. For quantitative analysis, the results are compared with cascade model. The observed effects are categorized into leading effect transparency and medium effect transparency. The transparency in the latter case could be the reason of collective interactions of grouped nucleons with the incident particles.
Precise knowledge of hadron production rates in the generation of neutrino beams is necessary for accelerator-based neutrino experiments to achieve their physics goals. NA61/SHINE, a large-acceptance hadron spectrometer, has recorded hadron+nucleus i nteractions relevant to ongoing and future long-baseline neutrino experiments at Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory. This paper presents three analyses of interactions of 60 GeV/$c$ $pi^+$ with thin, fixed carbon and beryllium targets. Integrated production and inelastic cross sections were measured for both of these reactions. In an analysis of strange, neutral hadron production, differential production multiplicities of $K^0_{S}$, $Lambda$ and anti-$Lambda$ were measured. Lastly, in an analysis of charged hadron production, differential production multiplicities of $pi^+$, $pi^-$, $K^+$, $K^-$ and protons were measured. These measurements will enable long-baseline neutrino experiments to better constrain predictions of their neutrino flux in order to achieve better precision on their neutrino cross section and oscillation measurements.
We report on double-differential inclusive cross-sections of the production of secondary protons, charged pions, and deuterons, in the interactions with a 5% nuclear interaction length thick stationary carbon target, of proton and pion beams with mom entum from pm 3 GeV/c to pm 15 GeV/c. Results are given for secondary particles with production angles between 20 and 125 degrees. Cross-sections on carbon nuclei are compared with cross-sections on beryllium, copper, tantalum and lead nuclei.
We report on double-differential inclusive cross-sections of the production of secondary protons, charged pions, and deuterons, in the interactions with a 5% {lambda}int thick stationary aluminium target, of proton and pion beams with momentum from p m3 GeV/c to pm15 GeV/c.
