Effective polarization in proton-induced knockout reactions

Edagawa, Tomoatsu*; Yoshida, Kazuki   ; Chazono, Yoshiki*; Ogata, Kazuyuki*

The effective polarization of the residual nucleus in the proton-induced knockout reaction is investigated within the distorted wave impulse approximation framework. The strong absorption of the emitted particle results in strong selectivity on the reaction "position" depending on the third component of the single-particle orbital angular momentum of the particle inside a nucleus, hence on the spin direction of the reaction residue.
