First Measurement Of Transferred Polarization In The Exclusive (E)Over-Right-Arrow-P -> E ' K+ (Lambda)Over-Right-Arrow Reaction
PHYSICAL REVIEW LETTERS(2003)
摘要
The first measurements of the transferred polarization for the exclusive (e) over right arrow p --> e'K+(Lambda) over right arrow reaction have been performed at Jefferson Laboratory using the CLAS spectrometer. A 2.567 GeV beam was used to measure the hyperon polarization over Q(2) from 0.3 to 1.5 (GeV/c)(2), W from 1.6 to 2.15 GeV, and over the full K+ center-of-mass angular range. Comparison with predictions of hadrodynamic models indicates strong sensitivity to the underlying resonance contributions. A nonrelativistic quark-model interpretation of our data suggests that the s (s) over bar quark pair is produced with spins predominantly antialigned. Implications for the validity of the most widely used quark-pair creation operator are discussed.
