We present herein the initial results of a large-angle elastic p−p polarization experiment which is now in progress at the Argonne ZGS (Zero-Gradient Synchrotron) accelerator. Data for the incident proton momentum of 5.15 GeVc are presented for 30∘≲θc.m.≲90∘. These results, which extend to t≈−4.0(GeVc)2, represent the first high-statistics p−p polarization measurements for |t| values greater than ∼2.5 (GeVc)2. We observe a minimum in the polarization near t=−0.8(GeVc)2, a smooth increase in the polarization until a maximum is attained near t=−1.8(GeVc)2, and then a monotonic decline in the polarization until the value of zero is reached at θc.m.=90∘. The data are analyzed in terms of an optical model.

We present here the results of an experiment to study the polarization in p−p elastic scattering at the incident momenta 5.15, 7.00, and 12.33 Ge V/c, at t values ranging between - 0.5 and - 6.5 (GeV/c)2. At each momentum we observe a relative maximum in the polarization around t=−1.8 (GeV/c)2. At 12.33 GeV/c the data exhibit a double zero near t=−2.4 (GeV/c)2 and another relative maximum near t=−2.9 (GeV/c)2. The results are discussed in terms of the Chu-Hendry optical model.

A systematic study has been made of the reactions pp→pp and pp→pN* in the angular range from θlab=10∘ to θc.m.=90∘ at 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7 GeVc. An orthogonal dispersion magnetic spectrometer detected protons from interactions in hydrogen with momentum transfer (−t) in excess of 0.5 (GeV)2. Well-defined peaks in the missing-mass spectra occurred at average N* masses of 1240±6, 1508±2, and 1683±3 MeV with average full widths of 102±4, 92±3, and 110±4 MeV, respectively. Below 2400 MeV no other significant enhancements were found. The N* production cross sections dσdt near θc.m.=90∘ are in qualitative agreement with the predictions of the statistical model. For each isobar the differential cross section at fixed energy varies as exp(−vv0), where v≡[−tu(t+u)]; v0 varies systematically with energy and tends toward the same value (≈0.4 GeV2) for each isobar at the upper limit of our energy range.
