Vector analyzing power of π+7Li scattering in the region of the Δ33 resonance

Within Glauber diffraction theory, the vector analyzing power iT ₁₁ is calculated at three energies of positively charged pions, 134, 164, and 194 MeV, incident to ⁷Li nuclei. These energy values lie in the region of the Δ₃₃ resonance in π^± N interaction, the resonance maximum being at 180 MeV. The calculation of iT ₁₁ was performed with several model ⁷Li wave functions, including the αt-cluster and shell-model ones. The properties of π⁺⁷Li scattering are found to be sensitive to the structural features of the target nucleus. A comparison of the results of the calculations with experimental data shows that the wave functions in question and the potentials used to calculate them are quite appropriate.
