The effect of the relativistic spin rotation on two--particle spin states, conditioned by the setting of the spins of the particles in their rest frames and by the noncommutativity of the Lorentz transformations along noncolinear directions, is discussed. Particularly, the transition from the c.m.s. of two spin-1/2 particles to the laboratory is considered. When the vectors of the c.m.s. particle velocities are not colinear with the velocity vector of the c.m.s., the angles of the relativistic spin rotation for the two particles are different. As a result, the relative fractions of the singlet and triplet states in the relativistic system of two spin-1/2 particles depend on the concrete frame in which the two-particle system is analyzed.
The effect of the relativistic spin rotation, conditioned by the setting of the spin in the rest frame of a particle and by the noncommutativity of the Lorentz transformations along noncolinear directions, is discussed. In connection with this, the Thomas precession of the spin polarization vector at the motion of a particle along a curvilinear trajectory is considered. The transformations of the correlation tensor components for a system of two spin-1/2 particles at the transition from the c.m.s. of the particle pair to the laboratory frame are investigated. When the particle laboratory velocities are not colinear, the relativistic spin rotation angles for these particles are different. As a result, the relative fractions of the singlet and triplet states in the relativistic system of two free spin-1/2 particles with a nonzero vector of relative momentum depend on the concrete frame in which this two-particle system is analyzed.
The relation between the differential cross section of the charge-exchange breakup of a fast deuteron d+p -> (pp)+n and the differential cross section of the charge transfer process n+p -> p+n is discussed taking into account the effects of the proton identity and of the Coulomb and strong interactions of protons in the final state. The distribution of the relative momenta of the protons is found in the framework of the impulse approach. It is shown that the use of polarized initial deuterons and protons allows one to separate two spin-dependent terms in the amplitude of the charge transfer reaction n+p -> p+n at zero angle and to determine their phase difference. The influence of the deuteron d-wave state is investigated.
