Search for time-reversal-invariance violation in double polarized antiproton-deuteron scattering

Abstract

Apart from the pd reaction also the scattering of antiprotons with transversal polarization PPY on deuterons with tensor polarization Pxz provides a null-test signal for time-reversal-invariance violating but parity conserving effects. Assuming that the time-reversal-invariance violating N̅N interaction contains the same operator structure as the NN interaction, we discuss the energy dependence of the null-test signal in p̅d scattering on the basis of a calculation within the spin-dependent Glauber theory at beam energies of 50-300 MeV.
