First measurement of the tensor analyzing power T(sub 20) in inelastic (d, d')X scattering at 0(sup 0) on (sup 1)H and (sup 12)C at 4.5 and 5.5 GeV/c

摘要

First results for T(sub 20) of the inelastic (d, d')X reaction above the (Delta)-threshold are presented. It is observed that T(sub 20) is negative, small in absolute value in the (Delta) region and rises almost linearly to (T(sub 20)) (approx equal) (0.4-0.6) at energy transfers Q (approx equal) 1 GeV. No significant dependence on the type of the target and on the initial energy was observed. 14 refs., 2 figs. (Atomindex citation 27:009485)
