Abstract

A carbon target was bombarded with polarized protons of average energy 145 MeV and cross sections and asymmetries were measured for deuterons emerging at angles between 5° and 40° to the incident beam. The asymmetry is small at angles less than 15°, but rises rapidly to become nearly 100% at 40°.

The results for the cross sections are in agreement with recent calculations including multiple scattering corrections to the impulse approximation. They show that multiple scattering effects dominate at large angles and prevent a search for high momentum components by this method.
