Delta production in nucleon-nucleon scattering and pion production in nucleus-nucleus collisions

We present a calculation of $ Delta$ production cross section in the one-boson-exchange model for the reaction $NN to N Delta.$ Our calculation is in quantitative agreement with a previous calculation by Huber and Aichelin (1). The effect of the $NN to N Delta$ anisotropic differential cross section on $ pi$ production in Au + Au collisions at a kinetic energy of $1{GeV over A}$ is studied. We find that there is no large effect on the final $ pi$ transverse momentum spectra.
