Hello.

I've been having a hard time finding information about the following reaction:

e[tex]^{-}[/tex]+n[tex]\rightarrow[/tex]e[tex]^{-}[/tex]+p[tex]^{+}[/tex]+[tex]\pi[/tex][tex]^{-}[/tex]

I hope you could give me some information about it.

I'm interested in energies for the incident e[tex]^{-}[/tex] above 200MeV.

I think it has to do something with hypothetical quark production, bu I'm not sure.

Thank you.

I would google "pion electroproduction" and maybe add "near threshold" since the threshold of that reaction is about 150 MeV.

What are you interested in? The theoretical understanding of the process? Experiments that extract information about it?

You asked a very broad question about a very specific reaction... which tends to not get you much help around here.
