Bremsstrahlung of 350-450 MeV protons as a tool to study NN interaction off-shell

摘要

The pp right-arrow pp-gamma bremsstrahlung cross section is calculated within the method of coordinate space representation. It is shown that in the beam energy range of 350-450 MeV a deep attractive NN-potential with forbidden states (Moscow potential) and realistic meson exchange potentials (MEP) give rise to the cross sections that differ essentially in shape: the cross sections nearly coincide in the minima but differ by a factor of 5 approximately in the maxima. Therefore, the pp right-arrow pp-gamma reaction at energies similar to 350-450 MeV can be used to study NN interaction off-shell and to discriminate experimentally between MEP and Moscow potential.
