Abstract

Relativistic formulae for spin averaged and spin dependent one photon exchange differential cross sections are developed for spin half fermion fermion elastic scattering. Spin transfer cross sections are important for the Polarized Antiproton eXperiments (PAX) project at GSI Darmstadt. In particular, cross sections for polarization transfer in antiproton electron and antiproton proton elastic collisions are presented.
