Abstract
We apply Glauber theory to calculate the cross section for the excitation of the giant dipole resonance () in by pions. In the resonance region the cross section mb. It is too small to influence the ratio of the () reaction. This result contradicts previous speculations.
NUCLEAR REACTIONS , MeV, calculated for giant dipole, discussed relevance for () reaction.
