Popis: Measurements for the elastic and inelastic scattering of 500 MeV protons from 40 Ca and 208 Pb at small momentum transfers are reported. The induced proton polarization P and the spin rotation parameter Q were measured for the elastic scattering. The spin rotation parameters D SS ′ , D SL ′ , D LL ′ , d LS ′ and the induced polarization P were measured for transitions to the 3 − (3.37 MeV) and 5 − (4.48 MeV) states in 40 Ca and the 3 − (2.61 MeV) state in 208 Pb. Comparisons of the data with the theoretical calculations were carried out in the framework of nonrelativistic and relativistic approaches. We extracted the spin-up and spin-down channels for the elastic scattering cross sections and found that predictions of the relativistic and nonrelativistic approaches agree well with the spin-up channel data and differ considerably in the spin-down channel.
