Measurements of Triple and Double Spin Parameters in Elastic $p p$ Scattering at 6-{GeV}/$c$

Auer, I.P. ; Chalmers, J. ; Colton, E. ; et al.

Inspire Record 213562 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.23547

Toward the goal of experimentally determining the p-p elastic-scattering amplitudes at 6 GeV/c, we have measured a number of triple- and double-spin correlation parameters over the ‖t‖ range between 0.2 and 1.0 (GeV/c)2. These new data permit the first nucleon-nucleon amplitude determination in the multi-GeV energy range. Polarized beams from the Argonne Zero Gradient Synchrotron and polarized targets were utilized. The polarization of the recoil proton was measured with a carbon polarimeter. A total of 14 different spin observables were measured (five spin transfer, four depolarization, and five triple-spin correlation parameters). These have been combined with earlier results, resulting in a data set of typically 30 measurements of 20 different spin observables for each of six ‖t‖ values between 0.2 and 1.0 (GeV/c)2. A solution for the amplitudes has been found at each ‖t‖, and comparisons are presented with several different models. The spin-nonflip helicity amplitudes are found to be much larger than the spin-flip amplitudes.

Energy Dependence of the Spin Spin Correlation Parameter C(ll) = (L, L : O, O) in $p p$ Elastic Scattering Around $\theta$ (Center-of-mass) = 90-degrees

Inspire Record 131077 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.20865

We have measured the spin-spin correlation parameter CLL=(L, L;0, 0) in p−p elastic scattering around θc.m.=90° from plab=1.0 to 3.0 GeV/c. We observe a rapid energy dependence in CLL and describe our interpretation of the results.

Measurements of the Total Cross-Section Difference and the Parameter C(LL) in p p Scattering with Longitudinally Polarized Beam and Target

Auer, I.P. ; Beretvas, A. ; Colton, E. ; et al.
Phys.Lett.B 70 (1977) 475-478, 1977.
Inspire Record 5342 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.27516

We have measured the difference between the pp total cross-sections for parallel and anti-parallel longitudinal spin states at beam momenta of 3 and 6 GeV/ c . These results, combined with our previous measurements, at lower momenta, are useful in clarifying a striking structure appearing at around 1.5 GeV/ c . We have also measured for the first time, the spin-spin correlation parameter C LL ( t ) in pp elastic scattering at 6 GeV/ c . We observe evidence for an exchange with A 1 -like quantum-numbers.

Measurement of the Total Cross-Section Difference for p p Scattering in Longitudinal Spin States

Auer, I.P. ; Colton, E. ; Hill, D. ; et al.
Phys.Lett.B 67 (1977) 113-116, 1977.
Inspire Record 4411 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.27581

We have measured the total cross-section difference for pp scattering in initial spin states parallel to the beam direction at beam momenta of 1.17, 1.47, 1.69, 1.97 and 2.49 GeV/ c . This measurement was done in a standard transmission experiment. A striking energy dependence is observed with a maximum difference of −16.9 mb at P lab = 1.47 GeV/ c .
