Measurement of Δ σ L and C LL = ( L , L ; 0 , 0 ) in proton-proton scattering between 300 and 800 MeV

Measurements are reported of the difference ..delta..sigma/sub L/ between proton-proton total cross sections for parallel and antiparallel spin states and of the parameter C/sub L/L for proton-proton elastic scattering near 90/sup 0/, for thirteen energies between 300 and 800 MeV. The ..delta..sigma/sub L/ results agree well with previous ANL ZGS and SIN data, but disagree with recent results from TRIUMF. Attempts to understand the cause of the discrepancy have been unsuccessful, but possible sources are discussed. The ..delta..sigma/sub L/ and C/sub L/L results have been used with other experimental data to extract quantities which depend only on spin-singlet, coupled spin-triplet, and spin-triplet partial waves. Structure is found in these quantities, which appears to be associated with the resonantlike /sup 1/D/sub 2/ and /sup 3/F/sub 3/ partial waves. Additional similar structure is also found, which may be due either to the /sup 3/P/sub 0/ partial wave or the (/sup 3/P/sub 2/, /sup 3/F/sub 2/) partial-wave pair.

CLL = (L, L; 0, 0) measurements and a structure due to a P partial wave in the pp system☆

Measurements of CLL of pp elastic scattering near θc.m. = 90° at thirteen energies between 300 and 800 MeV are reported. These, together with previous values of CNN, are used to extract values of two quantities, ƒs and ƒt, which contain only spin-singlet and only coupled spin-triplet partial waves, respectively. The ƒs curve, which is not dependent on CLL, exhibits the behavior expected for the previously conjectured 1D2 resonance. The ƒt curve also exhibits a resonance-like behavior, which could be due either to the 3P0 or the 3P2 partial wave.
