Abstract
We report measurements of cross sections and analyzing powers for nucleon-knockout $(\stackrel{P\vec}{p},np)$ reactions of $^{2}\mathrm{H}, ^{6}\mathrm{Li}$, and $^{12}\mathrm{C}$ at 296 MeV using the RCNP NPOL3 neutron detector and large acceptance spectrometer. The $1s$ and $1p$ knockout reactions were successfully separated with a separation-energy resolution of approximately 6 MeV. The resulting data were compared with plane-wave and distorted-wave impulse approximation calculations employing the nucleon-nucleon $t$ matrix in free space. No significant differences were identified in the case of the present analyzing power data, in contrast to the significant reductions observed in $(\stackrel{P\vec}{p},2p)$ values. The conventional Pauli blocking and nuclear binding effects with the $g$ matrix and the relativistic effect of nucleon mass reduction in the nuclei are also discussed.
