Spin dependence in low-energy neutron-proton scattering

  • 1. University of Wisconsin, Madison, Wisconsin 53706

Description

The analyzing power in neutron-proton scattering at 25 MeV neutron energy has been measured to an accuracy of typically +- 0.002 for c.m. scattering angles between 500 and 1650. Contrary to the conclusions reached from earlier precision measurements at 16.9 MeV, the contributions to partial waves with l≥3 are consistent with predictions based on one-pion exchange. The new data are well described by the Paris potential and by a recent global phase-shift analysis
