Abstract

In the framework of the RHIC spin program we investigated the polarization effects in elastic proton‐proton scattering at small momentum transfer and in the diffraction dip region. The calculations take into account the Coulomb‐hadron interference effects including the additional Coulomb‐hadron phase. In particular, we show the impact of the form of the hadron potential at large distances on the behavior of the hadron spin‐flip amplitude at small angles. The t‐dependence of the spin‐flip amplitude of high energy hadron elastic scattering is analyzed under different assumptions on the hadron interaction.
