The quasi-free p+n-->d+eta reaction cross section has been measured at thre
shold using 1295 MeV protons in the CELSIUS storage ring and an internal cl
uster-jet deuterium target [1]. Excess energies from threshold to 10 MeV in
the center of mass of the final d eta system were covered. Approaching the
threshold the cross section is enhanced compared to phase-space expectatio
ns. This behaviour is typical for a strong final state interaction.
