Abstract

The effects of parity violation in the interaction of relativistic polarized protons and deuterons are discussed. Within Glauber's approach, estimates are obtained for P-odd asymmetries in the total and elastic scattering cross sections, in the deuteron dissociation cross section, and in the inelastic cross section with meson production in a final state. It is shown that, from the point of view of the magnitude of the P-odd effects, the interaction of polarized deuterons with unpolarized protons has an advantage over the interaction of polarized protons with unpolarized deuterons. A significant P-odd asymmetry was found in the dissociation channel of the polarized deuteron.
