Studies of Di-proton production at ANKE
- Physikalisches Institut II, Universitaet Erlangen-Nuernberg, 91058 Erlangen (Germany)
The study of NN-interactions with production of {sup 1}S{sub 0} proton pairs (diprotons) provides a new approach to hadron interactions at intermediate energies. The use of the polarised COSY beams and the ANKE polarised internal target allows one to conduct single and double polarization experiments. A number of processes including pd{yields}{l_brace}pp{r_brace}{sub s}n, production of one and two pions in pN collisions, and the pp{yields}{l_brace}pp{r_brace}{sub s}{gamma} process, have been investigated.Information on the near-threshold single pion production with formation of a diproton in the processes pp{yields}{l_brace}pp{r_brace}{sub s}{pi}{sup 0} and pn{yields}{l_brace}pp{r_brace}{sub s}{pi}{sup -} is urgently needed for further development of chiral perturbation theory. The measurements of d{sigma}/d{Omega}, A{sub y} and the spin-correlation coefficients A{sub x,x} and A{sub x,z} will permit an amplitude analysis that should provide a non-trivial test of the {chi}PT predictions. A combined study of these processes will lead to the isolation of the strength parameter d of the four-nucleon-pion contact interaction in {chi}PT. Preliminary ANKE results on d{sigma}/d{Omega} and A{sub y} in these processes are presented, and the future experimental programme is discussed.
