We are glad to bring to your attention a new preprint «The Differential Cross Section in Deuteron-Proton Elastic Scattering at 500, 750 and 900 MeV/Nucleon» E1-2019-31 issued by the JINR Publishing Department. The authors are Terekhin A. A. et al.

Abstract:

The results on the differential cross section of dp elastic scattering obtained at the Internal Target Station at the Nuclotron of JINR at energies of 500, 750 and 900 MeV/nucleon are presented. The measurements have been performed using an unpolarized deuteron beam and a polyethylene foil target. The data have been obtained in the angular range of 70◦-120◦ in the cms. The angular dependences of the data from the present experiment are compared with the world experimental data obtained at similar energies as well as with the theoretical calculations performed within the relativistic multiple scattering theory. The behavior of the differential cross section at the fixed scattering angles covering the total cms energy region of √s = 3.1−3.42 GeV is in qualitative agreement with the s-power-law dependence.

The investigation has been performed at the Veksler and Baldin Laboratory of High Energy Physics, JINR
