Cross sections and analyzing powers have been measured for {sup 12}C(p,n) at 494 MeV and 795 MeV and for Pb(p,n) at 795 MeV. The data span an energy loss range of at least 200 MeV, which is sufficient to clearly reveal the large peak associated with quasifree neutron knockout. The kinematics, cross section, and analyzing power for this peak are compared to the corresponding observables for free nucleon-nucleon scattering and to the observables calculated with a relativistic Fermi-gas model. 15 refs., 3 figs.
