We report the measurements of the transverse (P′x) and longitudinal (P′z) components of the polarization transfer to a bound proton in carbon via the quasi-free 12C(e,e′p) reaction, over a wide range of missing momenta. We determine these polarization-transfers separately for protons knocked out from the s- and p-shells. The electron-beam polarization was measured to determine the individual components with systematic uncertainties which allow a detailed comparison with theoretical calculations.
