On high-energy elastic scattering of protons by nuclei☆

摘要: Abstract The two coupled channel formalism for high energy elastic scattering [1] is extended to include spin and isospin effects. For a zero nucleus these manifest themselves by additional spin-orbit terms in the potentials. Explicit formulas potentials are obtained of fully dependent nucleon-nucleon amplitude, ground state nuclear form factor correlation functions. coupling potential except small term arising from double flip process involving excitation depends only upon pair correlations. Numerical calculations performed 1 GeV protons incident on 4 He. Various phenomenological dynamical two-body correlations as well generated Reid soft-core Tabakin an approximate Brueckner-Hartree-Fock calculation considered. angular distribution beyond its first diffraction minimum polarization same range shown be sensitive However, present accuracy experimental data lack knowledge amplitude prevent any definitive conclusion about their nature.
