Structure in pp elastic polarisation and pomeron-flip
Abstract
An investigation of pp (and np) elastic polarisations in the region 10 less than or equal to p/sub lab/ less than or equal to 300 GeV/c and absolute value of t less than or equal to 0.9 (GeV/c)/sup 2/ is carried out using the Regge pole model with phenomenologically parameterized residues. In an attempt to reproduce the polarisation structure for absolute value of t less than or equal to 0.5 (GeV/c)/sup 2/ and p/sub lab/ greater than or equal to 45 GeV/c a Pomeron-flip contribution is included. It is shown that a Pomeron-flip contribution, although yielding a good overall chi/sup 2//pt for a fit to the data, cannot reproduce the polarisation zero observed in the aforementioned (p/sub lab/,t) region (we use ..cap alpha../sub p/ = 0.23). It is however found that if one invokes an Odderon-flip contribution the polarisation structure can be easily reproduced. The Odderon is the odd-signatured partner of the Pomeron and has isospin one. Its existence has been recently invoked in order to account for the disturbing energy dependence of the np CEX data.
