Feasibility of the observation of $\eta^{\prime}$ mesic nuclei in the semi-exclusive $^{12}$C($p, dp$) reaction

We study theoretically the feasibility of the semi-exclusive $^{12}$C($p,dp$)$X$ reaction for the observation of $\eta^\prime$ mesic nuclei using the transport model JAM. The semi-exclusive measurements of the ($p,d$) reaction with protons from $\eta^\prime$ non-mesonic two-body absorption ($\eta^\prime NN \to NN$) are found to be critically important for the observation of the $\eta^\prime$ bound states. The Green's function method is used to calculate the momentum spectrum of forward going deuterons corresponding to the excitation energy spectrum of the $\eta^\prime \otimes {}^{11}$C system in the semi-exclusive measurement. The semi-exclusive measurements are considered to be important in general for the $\eta^\prime$ mesic nucleus formation.
