Large-P2Spin Effects inp+pp+<

Abstract: The analyzing power A in 28-GeV/c proton-proton elastic scattering was measured with a polarized proton target and a high-intensity unpolarized proton beam at the Brookhaven National Laboratory alternating-gradient synchrotron. ThePj^^ range of 2.85 to 5.95 (GeY/c)'^ was covered with good precision. A small dip of about -3.5% was found near Pj^^ =3.5 (GeV/c)^ where a 24-GeV/c CERN experiment had reported a deep dip of about -16% with large errors. In the previously unexplored large-P^^ region near 6 (GeV/c)^ t… Show more

“…The quality of the present data is poor and prevents any severe test of our predictions. The predicted asymmetry amounts to about 20-30% for |t| > 6 GeV 2 ; it is of the same order of magnitude as has been observed in the low-energy BNL experiment[3]. The decrease of the asymmetry at smaller momentum transfer is connected with the smallness of ReF +− near |t| = 3 GeV 2 .…”

“…Experimentally, there are many observations of large spin effects at high energies and moderately large momentum transfer [2]. Sizeable differences between the cross sections for different spin orientations of the initial state protons as well as large double-spin, A N N , and single-spin, A N , transverse asymmetries have been observed in the BNL experiment [3] for beam momenta p B less than 28 GeV. The FNAL experiment [4] finds values for A N of about 10-20% at p B = 200 GeV and momentum transfers |t| ≥ 2 GeV 2 .…”

“…These tests are much less demanding than asymptotic limits, and apply to an expansion of leading power behavior. The tests fail in almost every case experiments exist [18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34]. That is convincing evidence that the observed experimental regularities are not explained by the SD model.…”

“…Whichever the model, more analogous terms must be summed to reproduce it. Indeed, data show interference between at least two competing terms in elastic scattering [84,43], and three competing terms in single-polarization measurements [44,45,46,47,48]. Here I ignore the behavior of the analyzing power in the very soft region (where it is nonzero but small), and include two scalar complex terms, and two imaginary spin-orbit terms.…”
