Investigation of Compound Elastic Scattering Near Isobaric Analog Resonances with Polarized Protons

Abstract

A rather model-independent separation of direct and compound elastic cross sections has been obtained from the analysis of elastic scattering of polarized protons near the lowest $d_{\frac{5}{2}}$ isobaric analog resonances in ${}_{}{}^{89}{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{Y}$ and ${}_{}{}^{91}{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{Nb}$.
