In-plane polarization transfer in the sup 6 Li( p , p prime ) reaction and the effective NN interaction

We have measured the in-plane polarization transfer coefficients for the {sup 6}Li({ital p},{ital p}{prime}) reaction using a longitudinally polarized beam at 65 MeV. A microscopic distorted-wave Born-approximation analysis with the M3Y interaction has been performed for the excitation to the first 0{sup +} state ({ital T}=1). The isovector tensor force {ital V}{sub {ital T}{tau}} and the isovector spin-orbit force {ital V}{sub {ital L}{ital S}{tau}} have been adjusted in order to reproduce the experimental differential cross sections, depolarization parameters, and in-plane polarization transfer coefficients. This analysis suggests that the high-momentum components of {ital V}{sub {ital T}{tau}} should be substantially reduced from the M3Y interaction and {ital V}{sub {ital L}{ital S}{tau}} needs to be more attractive.
