Spin analyzing power in p-p elastic scattering at 28 GeV/c

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev. Lett.; (United States)
The analyzing power, A, was measured in proton-proton elastic scattering with use of a polarized proton target and 28-GeV/c primary protons from the alternating-gradient synchrotron. Over the P/sub perpendicular//sup 2/ range of 0.5 to 2.8 (GeV/c)/sup 2/, the data show interesting structure. There is a rather sharp dip at P/sub perpendicular//sup 2/ = 0.8 (GeV/c)/sup 2/ corresponding to the break in the elastic differential cross section at the end of the diffraction peak.
