High-Energy Physics with Polarized Beams and Polarized Targets

Abstract

We have measured a parity-violating asymmetry AL=(σ+-/(σ+-), defined as the fractional difference of the total cross sections for positive and negative helicity protons on a water target. The result is AL=(2.58±0.58)×10-6 where the quoted error includes both statistical and systematic contributions.
