Spin observables for pion production from pd collisions
We have calculated the proton analyzing power A_{y0} of the pion-production
reaction from pd collisions for one energy close to threshold and for another
in the region of the -resonance. A fair reproduction of the
experimental data could be obtained in both cases with a model which includes
isoscalar and isovector rescatterings in s waves, as well as the p-wave
rescattering mechanisms mediated by the and vertices.
For the analyzing power at threshold we found that the initial-state
interaction (ISI) is also quite important.Comment: Talk at XVIth International Conference on Few-Body Problems in

Meson Dynamics and the resulting "3-Nucleon-Force" diagrams: Results from a simplified test case
A simplified 1D (one-dimensional) model for a generalized 3N system is
considered, as a testing ground for the explicit treatment of the meson
dynamics in this system. We focus attention on the irreducible diagrams
generated by the pion dynamics in the 3N system, and in particular to a new
type of three-nucleon force discussed recently in the literature, and generated
by the one-pion-exchange mechanism in presence of a nucleon-nucleon
correlation. It is found that these new terms in the simplified model have an
approximately 30% effect compared to the standard three-nucleon force terms in
a `Triton' binding energy calculation. It is suggested that this effect should
also not be ignored in realistic calculations.Comment: 4 pages, Contribution to "Mesons and Light Nuclei 2001", Prague 2-6,

Three-nucleon portrait with pion
We report on recent results obtained by the above collaboration on the
collision processes involving three nucleons, where we pay particular attention
on the dynamical role of the pion. After discussing the case at intermediate
energies, where real pions can be produced and detected, we have considered the
case at lower energies, where the pions being exchanged are virtual. The study
has revealed the presence of some new pion-exchange mechanisms, which leads to
a new three-nucleon force of tensor structure. Recently, the effect of this
tensor three-nucleon force to the spin observables for neutron-deuteron
scattering at low energy has been analyzed, and will be briefly reviewed.Comment: To appear in the Proceedings of 8th Convegno su Problemi di Fisica
