Angle-averaged effective proton-carbon analyzing powers at intermediate energies

The angle-averaged effective analyzing powers, (A) over barc, for proton-carbon inclusive scattering were measured as a function of the kinetic energy of protons in a double scattering experiment. The measurements were performed in the kinetic energy range of 44.8-136.5 MeV at the center of 1-5 cm thick graphite analyzers using a polarized proton beam on a CH2 film or liquid hydrogen serving as target for the primary scattering. These data can be used for measuring the polarization of protons emerging from other reactions such as H((d) over right arrow,(p) over right arrow-)d. (c) 2006 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
