Sumario:A model for pion production by neutrons on nuclei is derived by a straightforward extension of the semiclassical model for pion production by protons, previously described by two of the present authors, Silbar and Sternheim (1973). Both models are then applied to compute pion production cross sections for nucleons incident on Pb, Cu and Al, and pion absorption cross sections in nuclear matter. Results are consistent with (unpublished) experimental data from CERN. (10 refs).
