This book allows the reader to understand the fundamentals of
polarization phenomena in a general spin system, showing the
polarizations to be indispensable information source of
spin-dependent interactions. Particularly, the book describes
polarization phenomena in nuclear scattering and reactions in
detail, and explains how they provide information concerning
spin-dependent interactions between the related particles. The
concepts of polarization observables are explained, explicitly in
the scattering of protons, deuterons and 7Li nuclei. In looking at
deuteron and 7Li scattering, interactions induced by the virtual
excitation of projectiles are examined in detail. Resonance
reactions are investigated, focusing attention on the polarization
of observables, which suggests that polarization phenomena can be
used to determine the spin parity of the resonance. It is noted
that in few-nucleon systems, the discrepancy between the values of
polarization observables based on theoretical models and the
corresponding values obtained through experimental data, is an
important problem to be solved in the future. Solving this problem
should provide new knowledge concerning the nuclear forces between
nucleons.The author has chosen open-access publishing for this book
to allow any interested person to study this branch of nuclear
physics.
