Description
One of the approaches to investigate the equation-of-state of dense nuclear matter is the study
of the short-range correlations of nucleons in nuclei. Short-range correlations have densities
comparable to the density in the center of a nucleon and they can be considered as the drops
of cold dense nuclear matter. Dp elastic and dp breakup processes are investigated at Internal
Target Station of Nuclotron; dp elastic process in angular range from 60 – 135 degree in c.m.
in the energy range from 400 - 2000 MeV; dp breakup reaction in angular the range from 19 –
56 degree from 300 - 500 MeV. Results which comes from analyzing powers of dp elastic
scattering show strong sensitivity to the short range spin structure of the isoscalar nucleon-
nucleon correlations. Description based on relativistic multi-scattering model provides
reasonable agreement at small and large angles but the problem is related to angles between
them.
