SCATTERING OF HIGH ENERGY DEUTERONS BY COMPLEX NUCLEI

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4743375
Making use of the high energy approximation developed for quantum mechanical scattering problems largely by Glauber, the theory of the scattering of high energy deuterons by complex nuclei was considered. The optical potential describing this process was constructed in terms of the nucleon-nucleon scattering amplitude. This potential contains a central, spin-orbit, and tensor terms. A calculation was made of the angular distribution, the vector and tensor polarizations for the scattering of 420 Mev deuterons by carbon and compared with the experimental data of J. Button and R. Mermod. Disagreement is noted for the tensor polarization. (auth)
