Abstract

Formulas are obtained for the differential and total cross sections of a weak antiproton-neutron leptonic annihilation, allowing at the same time for the intermediate boson, the form factors of the weak nucleon current, and arbitrary polarizations of the initial particles. In the case of contact interaction (V−λA), it is shown that the cross sections of the process considered are very sensitive to the axial-interaction structure and to the spin correlations of the particles.
