Measurement of analyzing power for the reaction TeX at polarized proton momentum of 7.5 GeV/c (ALPOM2 proposal)

An accurate data base for the analyzing power of thick CH2 analyzers for high energy protons has been at the basis of several research efforts in a number of laboratories. Starting in the late eighties such data were collected at SATURNE in Saclay, and with the Synchrophasotron in Dubna, and led to an extensive program of study of polarization phenomena in pd interaction, either backward elastic scattering or breakup [1-6]. At about the same time it became evident that measuring polarization observables in elastic ep was going to be the best approach to determine the form factors of the proton, G Ep and G Mp , as had been predicted by Akhiezer and Rekalo
