Polarization and spin rotation measurements in elastic hadron scattering at 39 and 44. 5 GeV/c. [Scattering amplitudes]

The polarization P was measured for elastic ..pi../sup +-/p, K/sup +-/p, pp, and anti pp scattering, and the spin rotation R for ..pi../sup -/p and pp. The energy dependence of P(..pi../sup -/p) at parallel t parallel approximately equal to 1.5 (GeV/c)/sup 2/ shows no evidence for deviation from a linear effective rho-trajectory. The energy dependence of P(pp) suggests that the expected asymptotic zero may be approached from negative values. The same may hold for the sum P(..pi../sup +/p) + P(..pi../sup -/p). The measurement of R(..pi../sup -/p) was used for a direct calculation of the ..pi..N elastic amplitudes at 40 GeV/c. R(pp) at 0.2 less than or equal to parallel t parallel less than or equal to 0.5 (GeV/c)/sup 2/ is close to R = -cos theta/sub p/ as expected asymptotically. However, the same situation is realized also at all other energies down to 1 GeV/c.
