Polarization effects in neutron-proton scattering at 98 MeV

  • Published:
Il Nuovo Cimento (1955-1965)

Summary

The polarization in free neutron-proton scattering has been measured at 98 ± 3 MeV as a function of scattering angle. A maximum asymmetry e=4% corresponding to a polarization of 39% is indicated. The angular distribution departs strongly from anti-symmetry about 90 degrees centre of mass angle.

Riassunto

La polarizzazione nello scattering neutrone-protone libero è stata misurata a 98±3 MeV in funzione dell’angolo di scattering. Si è riscontrata un’asimmetria massima e=4% corrispondente a una polarizzazione del 39%. La distribuzione angolare si scosta fortemente dall’antisimmetria di un angolo di circa 90‡ rispetto al centro di massa.
