Abstract
Spin-polarization response functions for the high-energy (e→,e′p→) reaction are examined by computing all 18 response functions for proton kinetic energies of 0.515 and 3.170 GeV from an 16O target. The Dirac eikonal formalism is applied to account for the final-state interactions. It is found to yield the response functions in good agreement with those calculated by partial-wave expansion at 0.5 GeV. We identify the response functions that are dominantly determined by the spin-orbit potential in the final-state interaction. Dependence on the Dirac- or Pauli-type current of the nucleon is investigated in the helicity-dependent response functions, and the normal-component polarization of the knocked-out proton is computed.
