Abstract
The differential cross section for H-2(gamma,d) pi(o) has been measured at deuteron center-of-mass angles of 90 degrees and 136 degrees. This work rep orts the first data for this reaction above a photon energy of 1 GeV, and p ermits a test of the apparent constituent counting rule and reduced nuclear amplitude behavior as observed in elastic ed scattering. Measurements were performed up to a photon energy of 4.0 GeV, and are in good agreement with previous lower energy measurements. Overall, the data are inconsistent wit h both constituent-counting rule and reduced nuclear amplitude predictions, [S0556-2813(99)50910-2].
