Analyzing power of the pp. --> pi. /sup +/d reaction at 375, 450, and 500 MeV incident proton energies

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev. C; (United States)
The analyzing power A/sub N0/ of the pp..--> pi../sup +/d reaction was measured to a statistical precision of better than +- 0.01 at incident proton beam energies of 375, 450, and 500 MeV, for center-of-mass angles from 20/sup 0/ to 150/sup 0/. The polarization-dependent differential cross sections were fit by associated Legendre functions (using published data for the shapes of the unpolarized differential cross sections). The energy dependence of the resulting b/sub k//sup N0/ coefficients were compared with existing data and theoretical expectations.
