Physics Goals

• Investigation of the short-range properties of
  the NN interaction through measurements of the
  deuteron break-up reaction with polarised proton
  beam and polarised deuteron target.
• Measurement of the spin structure of the
  amplitudes of the elementary np charge-exchange
  (CE) process via deuteron-induced reactions.
• Substantial and systematic enhancement of the
  world database of proton-neutron elastic
  scattering through a series of high-precision
  experiments, using polarised protons
  quasi-elastically scattered off the polarised
  neutrons in a polarised deuteron target.

Upgrade of the present ANKE detection and Target
systems

• Implementation of the polarised internal gas
  target for ANKE
• development of ultra thin-walled storage cells to
  allow for the detection of low energy spectator
  protons.
• Development and implementation of a new magnetic
  holding field system
• Development of an improved forward detector
  system to allow for the detection of proton pairs
  at low excitation energy for all relative
  orientations of the particles in the pair.
• Implementation and integration of the existing
  spectator detector setup into the experimental
  setup of the polarised internal target at ANKE
