Abstract
The analyzing-power behavior and the isospin dependence of the cross sections for near-threshold reactions C(p,) and C(p,) are compared with expectations from pion production measurements in free two-nucleon collisions. The general agreement for (,) suggests that the stable analyzing-power pattern observed for (,) continuum transitions may reflect the as yet unmeasured free behavior. We also discuss constraints imposed by quasifree expectations on the interpretation of anomalous (,) results for two strongly populated states at high excitation in ,14C.
