The structure effects in polarization and cross section in inelastic A(p,p')X reaction with the 40Ca and 12C nuclei at 1 GeV

Abstract

The polarization of the secondary protons in inelastic (p,p') reaction on the 40Ca and 12C nuclei at the initial proton energy 1 GeV was measured in the wide range of the scattered proton momenta at a laboratory angle 21 degree. The cross section of the reactions were measured as well. The outgoing protons from the reaction were detected using a magnetic spectrometer equipped with a multiwire-proportional chambers polarimeter. A structure in the polarization and cross section data, related probably to scattering of the nucleon correlation in the nuclei, was observed.
