Measurement of spin-correlation parametersALLandASLinp-pelastic scattering from 500 to 800 MeV

The spin-correlation observable ${\mathit{A}}_{\mathit{L}\mathit{L}}$ for p-p elastic scattering has been measured at energies 589, 640, 692, 743, and 793 MeV, over a c.m. angular range between 20° and 100°. The spin observable ${\mathit{A}}_{\mathit{S}\mathit{L}}$ was also measured in this angular range at energies 640 and 793 MeV. At 488 MeV both the spin observables were measured, but only near the c.m. angle of 90°. The data are compared with the predictions of several phase-shift analyses and previous measurements. The energy dependence of ${\mathit{A}}_{\mathit{L}\mathit{L}}$ for the c.m. angle of 90° is also presented and shows no anomalous behavior. These data provide better angular coverage over five of the energies, with comparable or better statistical precision, than previous measurements of ${\mathit{A}}_{\mathit{L}\mathit{L}}$.
