Parity-Violating Interaction Effects I: the Longitudinal Asymmetry in pp Elastic Scattering

Nuclear Theory 2014-11-18 v1

Abstract

The proton-proton parity-violating longitudinal asymmetry is calculated in the lab-energy range 0--350 MeV, using a number of different, latest-generation strong-interaction potentials--Argonne V18, Bonn-2000, and Nijmegen-I--in combination with a weak-interaction potential consisting of rho- and omega-meson exchanges--the model known as DDH. The complete scattering problem in the presence of parity-conserving, including Coulomb, and parity-violating potentials is solved in both configuration- and momentum-space. The predicted parity-violating asymmetries are found to be only weakly dependent upon the input strong-interaction potential adopted in the calculation. Values for the rho- and omega-meson weak coupling constants hρpph^{pp}_\rho and hωpph^{pp}_\omega are determined by reproducing the measured asymmetries at 13.6 MeV, 45 MeV, and 221 MeV.
