Summary
This paper describes an experiment on proton polarization in π−+p elastic scattering at 8.5 GeV/c. The experiment was performed using the spark chamber technique. In the four-momentum transfer interval 0.15⩽|t|⩽0.8 (GeV/c)2 the polarization is found to beP=0.33±0.15.
Riassunto
Si descrive una misura della polarizzazione del protone di rinculo nell’urto elastico π−+p a 8.5 GeV/c. Si sono impiegate camere a scintilla come rivelatori. Nell’intervallo di quadrimomento trasferito 0.15⩽|t|⩽0.8 (GeV/c)2, la polarizzazione èP=0.33±0.15.
