Neutron-proton differential cross sections have been measured with good statistics for four-momentum transfers 0.14<−t≲19.0 (GeV/c)2 at laboratory momenta ranging from 4.5 to 12.5 GeV/c. The experiment was carried out in a neutron beam at the Argonne National Laboratory zero-gradient synchrotron. These results in conjunction with previous n−p charge-exchange data provide almost complete elastic-scattering angular distributions in this momentum range.

The differential cross section for neutron-proton elastic scattering was measured in the diffraction region with incident neutron momenta between 5 and 30 GeV/ c . The experiment was an optical-spark-chamber-counter experiment conducted at the Brookhaven National Laboratory alternating gradient synchrotron. A well collimated neutron beam with a broad energy spectrum was incident on a liquid hydrogen target. The scattered neutrons were detected in a thick-plate spark-chamber array while the recoil protons were detected and momentum analyzed in a magnetic spectrometer with thin-foil spark chambers.

This paper describes a measurement of the neutron-proton differential cross section made at the Argonne National Laboratory Zero Gradient Synchrotron. The differential cross sections, based on about 470 000 events, are presented for 8 different momentum ranges between 4.5 and 12.5 GeV/ c . The data extend from small angles out to about 145° in the c.m.s., corresponding to 0.14 < − t ⪅ 19 (GeV/ c ) 2 at the highest energies. These results in conjunction with previous np charge-exchange data provide almost complete angular distributions in this momentum range. A detailed comparison of the data with existing pp data and with theoretical predictions is made.

We report the results of an experiment which measured n-p elastic scattering differential cross sections over a range in -t from 0.15 to ~ 3.6 (Gev/c)2 for incident neutron momenta from 70 to 400 GeV/c. We find the logarithmic slope parameter, evaluated at -t = 0.2 (GeV/c)2, to be consistent with existing proton-proton parameterizations. The data exhibit a dip in the cross section near -t 1.4 (Gev/c)2 for incident neutron momenta above 200 Gev/c. For neutron momenta less than 280 GeV/c, the neutron-proton cross sections are found to be higher than existing proton-proton data in the range 0.7 ~ -t ~ 1.3 (Gev/c)2 which is in contradic- tion to most Regge predictions.

We have measured cross sections for forward neutron production from a variety of targets using proton beams from the Fermilab Main Injector. Measurements were performed for proton beam momenta of 58 GeV/c, 84 GeV/c, and 120 GeV/c. The cross section dependence on the atomic weight (A) of the targets was found to vary as $A^(alpha)$ where $\alpha$ is $0.46\pm0.06$ for a beam momentum of 58 GeV/c and 0.54$\pm$0.05 for 120 GeV/c. The cross sections show reasonable agreement with FLUKA and DPMJET Monte Carlos. Comparisons have also been made with the LAQGSM Monte Carlo.

A measurement of the differential cross section for the reaction np→ π 0 d has been made at the Lawrence Radiation Laboratory 184-inch cyclotron. A neutron beam with kinetic energies up to 720 MeV was incident on a liquid hydrogen target. The angle and momentum of the deuterons were measured using an analyzing magnet and wire spark chambers with a magnetostrictive readout. Deuterons were separated from protons by time-of-flight. The photons from the decaying π 0 were not detected. The neutron energy was calculated from the measured deuteron angle and momentum.

The polarization of Ξ¯ + hyperons produced by 800-GeV/c protons in the inclusive reaction p+Be→Ξ¯ ++X has been measured. The average polarization of the Ξ¯ +, at a mean xF=0.39 and pt=0.76 GeV/c, is -0.097±0.012±0.009. The magnetic moment of the Ξ¯ + is 0.657±0.028±0.020 nuclear magneton.

We have studied the polarization of Ξ− and Ω− hyperons produced by high energy neutral particle beams. An unpolarized neutral beam striking a target at ±1.8 mrad produced 1.4×107Ξ−'s with an average momentum of 395 GeV/c which were unpolarized, within a sensitivity limit of 0.007, and 2.2 × 105 Ω−'s with a polarization of +0.042±0.007 at an average momentum of 374 GeV/c. A polarized neutral beam striking a target at 0.0 mrad produced 7.1×105Ξ−'s which had a polarization of -0.118±0.004 at an average momentum of 393 GeV/c and 1.8 × 104 Ω−'s with a polarization of -0.069±0.023 at an average momentum of 394 GeV/c. The polarized neutral beam measurement is in good agreement with a previous measurement. The unpolarized neutral beam results are not understood in the context of the current models of hyperon polarization.
