E1-2006-156 Proposal of the Experiment on Investigation of the (d, p) Reaction at the Extracted Deuteron Beam of the U-70 AcceleratorAn experiment on the investigation of the A(d, p)X reaction at the extracted deuteron beam created at the Serpukhov U-70 accelerator is proposed. Precise measurements of the momentum spectra of protons emitted in the (d, p) reaction at initial deuteron momenta of 20Ä40 GeV/c can give unique information on the deuteron short-range structure. A manifestation of contribution of non-nucleonic degrees of freedom in the deuteron is entirely possible over this energy range.The investigation has been performed at the Veksler and Baldin Laboratory of High Energies, JINR.
