Theoretical Study of Spin Observables in $pd$ Elastic Scattering at Energies $T_p=800-1000$ MeV

Abstract

Various spin observables (analyzing powers and spin-correlation parameters) in $pd$ elastic scattering at $T_p=800-1000$ MeV are analyzed within the framework of the refined Glauber model. The theoretical model uses as input spin-dependent $NN$ amplitudes obtained from the most recent partial-wave analysis and also takes into account the deuteron $D$ wave and charge-exchange effects. Predictions of the refined Glauber model are compared with the existing experimental data. Reasonable agreement between the theoretical calculations and experimental data at low momentum transfers $|t|\lesssim 0.2$ (GeV/$c{)}^2$ is found for all observables considered. Moderate discrepancies found in this region are shown to be likely due to uncertainties in the input $NN$ amplitudes. Qualitative agreement at higher momentum transfers is also found for most observables except the tensor ones with mixed $x$ and $z$ polarization components. Possible reasons for observed deviations of the model calculations from the data at $|t|>0.2$ (GeV/$c{)}^2$ are discussed.
