Abstract
We analyze the energy dependence for two parity-nonconserving (PNC) asymmetries in the reaction in the near-threshold region. First, we analyze the asymmetry in the reaction between a circularly polarized photon beam and an unpolarized deuteron. Second, we examine the reaction between an unpolarized photon and a polarized deuteron. We find that the two asymmetries have quite different energy dependence, and that the shapes are sensitive to the PNC meson-exchange coupling constants. The constraints for the PNC coupling constants and how to obtain them from future experiments are discussed.
