Spin dependence in intermediate energy p-nucleus scattering

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev., C; (United States)
We obtain closed form approximations for the spin dependent eikonal p-nucleus scattering amplitudes. The polarization P and spin rotation function Q can be written in terms of the unpolarized elastic scattering cross section and two complex parameters related to the nucleon-nucleon spin orbit strength and range. These forms agree well with the available data and illuminate the dynamical content of P and Q.
