Abstract

Utilising a novel method, an independent measurement of neutron polarisation in deuteron photo-disintegration is determined with CLAS data from Jefferson Lab Hall B, covering previously inaccessible kinetic regimes, including the resonance energy region of the d∗(2380). After isolating the reaction of interest, a maximum likelihood technique and bootstrapping technique were used to determine the neutron polarisation transfer Cx and reliable extraction of associated uncertainties, substantially extending the kinematic coverage from previous measurements, most notably to higher energies. The demonstrated success of this technique paves the way for further analyses that can be brought to CLAS12 for other reactions with a neutron in the final state.
