Abstract

The polarization in p-p scattering has been measured at various energies between 27 MeV and 100 MeV in a counter experiment using the 150 MeV, 48% polarized proton beam of the Harwell synchrocyclotron incident on a liquid hydrogen target. The beam energy was reduced by suitable absorbers, and the mean energy resolution of each measurement were defined by absorbers in an anti-coincidence range counter telescope. A solenoid was used to rotate the polarization of the beam through ± 180° in order to eliminate geometrical false asymmetries. It was found possible to represent the energy dependence of the polarization by a simple power law P = aE b up to about 70 MeV.
