abstract:
Antinucleon-nucleus annihilations into two-body final states containing only one or no meson
are unusual annihilations (Pontecorvo reactions), practically unexplored experimentally, with the
exception of the channel p d + r- p, for which only two low-statistics measurements exist. Their
physical interest lies in the possibility of exploring small-distance nuclear dynamics, in which an
important role can be played by non-nucleonic degrees of freedom. A new measurement of the
D d + r- p reaction rate at rest, performed with the OBELIX spectrometer at LEAR, with the
best statistics up to now and a careful evaluation of systematic effects is reported, together with
a critical analysis of the existing theoretical models. The measured branching ratio, which
confirms the previous results, can represent a reference point for the studies in the field.
