Abstract
The ππ0 production in nuclear Coulomb field at threshold has been studied for the first time experimentally. The cross section of the reaction
at 40 GeV on C, Al, Fe nuclei has been determined for small 4-momentum transferst<2·10−3 (GeV/c)2 and invariant mass of π-π0 S<10m 2π . The obtained result is in agreement with Adler's PCAC anomaly and colourSU(3) theory.
