Abstract
The aim of this work was the unambiguous proof of the existence of the Mott-Schwinger interaction. The analyzing power of the\(\vec p - \) 12C elastic scattering was measured in the energy range from 450 to 600 keV for scattering anglesθ Lab=90° and 120° with an overall accuracy up toΔA=1·10−4. The data can be described very well with theR-matrix formalism including Mott-Schwinger interaction. Omitting this interaction large discrepancies occur.

Excerpt from Ph. D. dissertation (D26)
The authors would like to thank Dr. G.R. Plattner, Basel for valuable discussions and Drs. F. Rösel and D. Trautmann, Basel for their help in the calculation of the Mott-Schwinger effect. We are indebted to Dr. W. Kretschmer, Erlangen and his coworkers for their generous assistance in calibrating the beam polarization. Furthermore, the cooperation with G. Herrmann and E. Huttel during the data taking is gratefully acknowledged.
