In older nuclear physics papers the convention for describing reactions is kinda hard to understand.
example:
[tex] p(p,n)\Delta^{++} [/tex]
Now this must mean:
[tex] p+p \rightarrow n+\Delta^{++} [/tex]
But does the older notation imply anything about targets vs. projectiles? Does the grouping of (p,n) imply anything?
Thanks
