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

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