Spin effects and rotating color charges in proton-proton elastic scattering

  • 1. Institut fuer Theoretische Physik der Freien Universitaet Berlin, Berlin (Federal Republic of Germany)

Description

It is suggested that the nonzero analyzing power A observed in large-pperpendicular2 elastic pp(↑) scattering is an indication for the existence of rotating color charges in polarized protons. Such color charges induce color-magnetic fields and thus give rise to an additional, velocity-dependent, interaction. The effects of this interaction are discussed phenomenologically at the hadronic level
