Elastic scattering of 180 MeV antiprotons by several closed-shell nuclei are analyzed using Glauber's multiple scattering theory. Spin observables in elastic scattering are obtained within this framework. The sensitivity of the polarizations to the spin-flip amplitudes are discussed in terms of the ¯NN potential models used for the calculations. Spineffects in angular distribution are found to be small. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The theoretical uncertainty in the correction term due to nucleon finite size is found to be of the order of 1-2% (i.e., ± 0.1% in r). It must be considered in the experimental analysis. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
