Polarization observables in the reaction $NN \to NN \Phi$

Nuclear Theory 2008-11-26 v1

Abstract

We study the reaction NNNNΦNN \to NN \Phi slightly above the threshold within an extended one-boson exchange model which also accounts for uuduud knock-out. It is shown that polarization observables, like the beam-target asymmetry, are sensible quantities for identifying a ssˉs \bar s admixture in the nucleon wave function on the few per cent level.
