Recoil-deuteron vector polarization in elastic electron-deuteron scattering

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev., D; (United States)
The vector polarization of the recoil deuteron in the elastic scattering of electrons on deuterons is calculated in the presence of weak-neutral-current couplings and is shown to be as large as other parity-violating effects in electron-nucleon scattering. Attempts should be made to detect experimentally this polarization which lies in the reaction plane.
