Abstract
A complete set of spin observables was measured for the 2H(p,n)2p reaction at 200 MeV at the Indiana University Cyclotron Facility (IUCF) with the high intensity polarized ion source (HIPIOS) and the Indiana Neutron Polarization Facility (INPOL). The incident proton beam was delivered successively in each of the three spin states, normal ( N ̂ ), sideways ( S ̂ ), and longitudinal ( L ̂ ). Two large-volume neutron polarimeters placed along the 0° and 24° beam lines measured the polarizations of the emitted neutrons in each of the three spin states. The measured cross sections and spin observables are compared with three-body Faddeev calculations, which generally agree with the data. The ratio of the longitudinal to transverse response is suppressed rather than enhanced, as predicted by some models.
