Deuteron frozen spin polarized target for nd experiements at the VdG accelerator of Charles University

A frozen spin polarized deuteron target cooled by the 3He/4He dilution refrigerator is described. Fully deuterated 1,2-propanediol was used as a target material. Deuteron vector polarization about 40% was obtained for the target in the shape of a cylinder of 2 cm diameter and 6 cm length. The target is intended for a study of 3N interactions at the polarized neutron beam generated by the Van de Graaff accelerator at the Charles University in Prague.

Single spin asymmetry measurements for $π^0$ inclusive productions in $p+p_{\uparrow} \to π^0 + X$ and $π^-+\p_{\uparrow}\to π^0+X$ reactions at 70 and 40 GeV respectively

The inclusive $π^0$ asymmetries were measured in reactions $p+p\uparrow \to π^0+X$ and $π^-+p\uparrow \to π^0+X$ at 70 and 40 GeV/c respectively. The measurements were made at the central region (for the first reaction) and asymmetry is compatible with zero in the entire measured $p_T$ region. For the second reaction the asymmetry is zero for small $x_F$ region ($-0.4<x_F<-0.1, 0.5<p_T(GeV/c) <1.5$) and increases with growth of $\mid x_F\mid$. Averaged over the interval $-0.8<x_F<-0.4, 1<p_T(GeV/c)<2$ the asymmetry was $-(13.8\pm 3.8)%$.

$A_N$ at small negative values of $\xf$ in the reaction $p+p(pol) \to π^0+X$ at 70 GeV and universal threshold in inclusive pion production

The talk continues the series of Single Spin Asymmetry (SSA) $π^0$ inclusive measurements carried out at Protvino 70 GeV accelerator. The asymmetry in the polarized target fragmentation region grows up in absolute value with $\xf$ decreasing and equals to $(-16 \pm 5)%$ at $-0.4<\xf<-0.25$. The result of the current experiment is in agreement with the universal threshold in pion asymmetries.

Measurement of spin-dependent total cross-section difference $Δσ_T$ in neutron-proton scattering at 16 MeV

A new measurement of $Δσ_T$ for polarized neutrons transmitted through a polarized proton target at 16.2 MeV has been made. A polarized neutron beam was obtained from the $^{3}\rm{H}(d,\vec n)^{4}\rm{He}$ reaction; proton polarization over 90\% was achieved in a frozen spin target of 20 cm$^3$ volume. The measurement yielded the value $Δσ_T=(-126\pm21\pm14)$ mb. The result of a simple phase shift analysis for the $^3S_1-^3D_1$ mixing parameter $ε_1$ is presented and compared with the theoretical potential model predictions.
