Abstract

New experimental results for polarization transfer, κ₀ and the analyzing power, T₂₀, in $^{12} C (d, p) X at 0°$ are present. The measurements have been performed at the Dubna polarized deuteron facility. At high intrinsic momenta of the proton in the deuteron (k⩾300 MeV/c) the behaviour of these observables is in disagreement with the impulse approximation predictions based on realistic NN-potentials. The data are compared with calculations of some other models predicting the high k behaviour of κ₀ and T₂₀.

Measurement of analyzing powers for the reaction p→ + CH<inf>2</inf> at p<inf>p</inf> = 1.75 - 5.3 GeV/c
2005, Nuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research, Section A: Accelerators, Spectrometers, Detectors and Associated Equipment
We report a new measurement of analyzing powers for the reaction $\overset{\Rightarrow}{p} + {CH}_{2} \to$ one charged particle +X, at proton momenta of 1.75, 3.8, 4.5 and $5.3 GeV / c$ . These results extend the existing data basis, necessary for proton polarimetry at intermediate energy, and confirm the feasibility of a large acceptance polarimeter based on this process. Particular attention was devoted to the investigation of the optimal target thickness and of the useful angular range. The experiment is performed at the accelerator complex of the JINR-VBLHE (Dubna).
New data on tensor analyzing power A<inf>yy</inf> of the relativistic deuteron breakup as additional test of deuteron structure at small distances
2004, Physics Letters, Section B: Nuclear, Elementary Particle and High-Energy Physics
New data on the tensor analyzing power A_yy of the $^{9} Be (d,p)X$ reaction at an initial deuteron momentum of 5 GeV/c and a proton detection angle of 178 mr have been obtained at the JINR Synchrophasotron. The data obtained are compared with the relativistic calculations of the deuteron breakup process made in the framework of the light-front dynamics. We have managed to explain the new data with Karmanov's relativistic deuteron wave function without invoking degrees of freedom additional to nucleon ones.

Polarization correlation coefficient for the 3H→e(d→,p) 4He reaction

A new approach to study the high momentum component of deuteron D-state wave function by measuring the polarization correlation coefficient, C_// [ $=1+ 14 A_{yy} +A_{xx} + 34 C_{y,y} +C_{x,x}$ ], for the $^{3} He →$ ( $d →,p$ )⁴He reaction is proposed. The first measurement of C_// has been carried out at E_d=270 MeV by using a newly constructed spin-exchange-type polarized ³He target. The obtained value is 0.223±0.044(statistical)±0.037(systematic). DWBA calculations are unable to reproduce the present results. Each component of C_// is compared with data for the d+p backward scattering and the deuteron inclusive breakup. A similarity in polarization observables is found among these reactions.

Polarization observables in A(d, p) breakup and quark degrees of freedom in the deuteron
1998, Physics Letters, Section B: Nuclear, Elementary Particle and High-Energy Physics
The differential cross section, the tensor analyzing power, T₂₀, and the polarization transfer, κ₀, in $^{12} C (d,p)$ breakup at relativistic energy are calculated within a model which incorporates multiple scattering and Pauli principle at quark level. It is shown that the rescattering and quark exchange affect drastically the polarization observables for kinematical region corresponding to high internal momentum in the deuteron.
