We report the results of an experiment which measured n-p elastic scattering differential cross sections over a range in -t from 0.15 to ~ 3.6 (Gev/c)2 for incident neutron momenta from 70 to 400 GeV/c. We find the logarithmic slope parameter, evaluated at -t = 0.2 (GeV/c)2, to be consistent with existing proton-proton parameterizations. The data exhibit a dip in the cross section near -t 1.4 (Gev/c)2 for incident neutron momenta above 200 Gev/c. For neutron momenta less than 280 GeV/c, the neutron-proton cross sections are found to be higher than existing proton-proton data in the range 0.7 ~ -t ~ 1.3 (Gev/c)2 which is in contradic- tion to most Regge predictions.

N p Charge Exchange Scattering at Fermilab

We have measured the neutron-proton charge-exchange differential cross section in the momentum interval 60 to 300 GeV/c, with squared four-momentum transfers 0.002 to 0.8 (GeV/c)2. Independent of incident momentum, the data are characterized by a sharp forward peak of width 0.02 (GeV/c)2, followed by a shoulder and gentler falloff at higher momentum transfers.
