The paper presents the experimental results on measurements of carbon analy
zing power for polarized protons at momenta 1.36, 1.60, 1.78, 2.02 GeV/c an
d the carbon thickness 4.9, 19.4, 36.5 g/cm(2). The data shows that the ana
lyzing power does not depend on the thickness in the interval 19-36 g/cm(2)
. The results of this experiment for carbon thickness 19.4 and 36.5 g/cm(2)
together with the Saclay data were used for parametrization over the momen
tum and the scattering angle. Proton polarization in the quasielastic scatt
ering on carbon at 10.5 degrees was also measured. The experiment was compl
eted at the ITEP accelerator. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights res
