Polarization in p-p elastic scattering Keeler, Richard Kirk

Abstract

The absolute normalization of the polarization in proton-proton elastic scattering at 24° lab has been determined by a double scattering experiment to an accuracy of ±2% over the energy range 250-520 MeV. The first energy dependant double scattering experiment has been performed at the Triumf variable energy cyclotron. Data were taken at five primary beam energies, 500, 467, 425, 367, and 307 MeV, and for the first time hydrogen was used both as polarizer and analyser.
