On the Deuteron Elastically Scattered by Nuclei

DOI:https://doi.org/10.1143/PTP.27.24· OSTI ID:4781219
The differential cross section and vector and tensor polarizations of high-energy deuterons elastically scattered by light nuclei are explained by the superposition of proton and neutron-nucleus interactions within the framework of the impulse approximation. The interaction between the proton and neutron in the deuteron is con sidered through the wave function of the deuteron. The calculated results for the differential cross section and the vector and tensor polarizations agree with experimental data except for (T20). Cancellation of the matrix element in the vector and tensor polarizations of the deuteron, which does not occur in the differential cross section, are indicated.
