ABSTRACT
Developments in spin-polarized internal targets for storage rings have permitted measurements of 197 MeV polarized protons scattering from vector polarized deuterons. This work presents measurements of the polarization observables A(y), iT11, and C(y,y) in proton-deuteron elastic scattering. When compared to calculations with and without three-nucleon forces, the measurements provide further evidence that three-nucleon forces make a contribution to the observables. This work indicates that three-body forces derived from static nuclear properties appear to be crucial to the description of dynamical properties.
ABSTRACT
A simple pseudoexternal cavity with a commerically available broad-area laser diode, standard optics, and a thin FabryPerot etalon provides single-mode emission with 1-W optical power and a tuning range of ~0.5nm . The linewidth is estimated at 200MHz. Such high-power semiconductor laser systems are promising light sources for atomic physics, in which narrow-band high-power light is necessary, for example, for optical pumping of alkali metal vapor. Methods for expanding the tuning range and achieving higher narrow-band optical power are discussed.
