Title: Measurements of the spin-correlation parameters A/sub 00k/k, A/sub 00k/s, and A/sub 00s/s in p-p elastic scattering between 400 and 600 MeV

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev. D; (United States)

We have measured the spin-correlation parameters A/sub 00k/k, A/sub 00k/s, and A/sub 00s/s in p-p scattering between 400 and 600 MeV using a longitudinally polarized beam and a butanol target polarized in the horizontal plane. Owing to the restrictive geometrical acceptance of the target, the polarization axis of the target was oriented at an angle ..cap alpha.. with respect to beam direction. The parameters A/sub 00k/k and A/sub 00k/s were therefore measured as a linear combination at 577, 536, 514, 494, and 445 MeV. These experiments were extended to the measurement of A/sub 00k/s and A/sub 00s/s by using a transversely polarized beam. We present the results, which are compared with phase-shift predictions.
