EXP 760: p + 1H, 40Ca, and 208Pb elastic and inelastic scattering at 650 MeV

Creators

Description

Experiment 760 provided high quality 650 MeV p + 1H, 40Ca, and 208Pb elastic and inelastic differential cross section data over the laboratory angular range 40 - 220. The HRS was moved in 1.50 steps, providing continuous angular distributions with approx. 0.20 binning. Beam energy was determined to be 649.5 +/- 0.5 MeV and the absolute zero of scattering angle was established to +/- 0.020. Overall energy resolution varied between 100 - 150 keV during the course of the experiment. The statistical errors for the elastic data are less than or equal to 1% at most angles. Thus, these new 650 MeV data are of similar quality to the best data obtained at the HRS facility. The accuracy of the final absolute normalization is +/- 10%. The final elastic angular distributions for 40Ca and 208Pb and results or first order Relativistic Impulse Approximation and Nonrelativistic Impulse Approximation predictions are presented
