(p, n) quasifree excitations in p-shell nuclei at 186 MeV

Double differential cross sections for ([ital p],[ital n]) quasifree scattering on [ital p]-shell nuclei, [sup 6,7]Li, [sup 10,11]B, and [sup 12,13]C, have been measured at an incident proton energy of 186 MeV between [theta][sub lab]=[theta][degree] and [theta][sub lab]=50[degree] in steps of 5[degree]. The normal polarization transfer coefficient, analyzing power, and induced polarization were also measured at [theta][sub lab]=0[degree], 15[degree], and 20[degree] using an incident proton beam of transverse polarization. Calculations by some competing quasifree models are presented and compared with the experimental results.
