Sl. Belostotski et al., MEASUREMENT OF POLARIZATION OBSERVABLES IN THE (D)OVER-RIGHT-ARROW-](P)OVER-RIGHT-ARROW+P+N REACTION AT T-D=2.0 GEV(P), Physical review. C. Nuclear physics, 56(1), 1997, pp. 50-63
We have studied the deuteron breakup in the p(d,2p)n reaction at T-d=2
.0 GeV. In this experiment, the vector analyzing power A(Y), the tenso
r analyzing power A(YY), and the polarization of the forward scattered
proton are measured close to the quasifree pp scattering kinematics.
These observables are presented as a function of the neutron momentum
ranging from 0.04 to 0.45 GeV/c in the rest frame of the deuteron. Mar
ked deviations from the impulse approximation using conventional deute
ron wave functions are observed. Corrections due to the multiple scatt
ering, the final state interaction, and the Delta excitation are calcu
lated in a model where-the spin-isospin structure of the elementary am
plitudes is treated rigorously. With this model, a reasonable account
of the measured polarization observables is obtained. The global agree
ment with all observables is, however, not good enough that we can rel
iably discriminate between conventional wave functions.
