1. Introduction
I am most grateful for the invitation to come
to Egypt to participate in this conference on high
energy physics research and to have the oppor-
tunity of telling you about some of our research.
For the past five years my close associates and I
at the Berkeley BEVALAC have been pursuing various
studies of pion production by heavy ions.1-6
Today I wish to focus my remarks on pions in the
velocity regions of target and projectile, where
strong spectral features appear.
Our main studies have been in the projectile-
velocity and center-of-mass regions, measuring
pions near 0 in a magnetic spectrometer. We have
made only a modest beginning to study pins in the
target-velocity region by searching for stopped
pions from emulsion interactions of 1.SA GeV Fe
ions. In this latter work we are indebted to Dr.
Harry Heckman for invaluable assistance in gene-
rously making available his emulsions and micro-1
