Abstract

The development of polarized proton targets for accelerator experiments became one of the important directions in polarization physics in the early 1950s. The necessity of such targets became obvious after theoretical works where it was shown that reconstruction of the (pion–nucleon or nucleon–nucleon) scattering matrix requires primarily the measurements of polarization parameters (see Sect. 2.2 “Reaction matrix”). Experiments with unpolarized particles allow the determination of only one observable, namely, differential cross section, whereas the other observables (more than three and eleven for the pion–nucleon and nucleon–nucleon scattering, respectively) should be measured in experiments with polarized initial and/or final particles. Such experiments obviously require both polarized beams and polarized targets.
