The energy and angular distributions show that the reaction is dominated by p-wave pi+ pi- pairs. This is in complete contrast to the results of inclusive measurements at somewhat higher energies which show a strong s-wave ABC enhancement at low pi pi masses. There are however indications of p-wave pion pairs from other experiments at low Q.9 pages, 2 figuresNuclear ExperimentP-wave dominance in the pd -> 3He pi+ pi- reaction near threshold measured with the MOMO experiment at COSYtext
