Abstract: | The asymmetry of the cross sections for the photoproduction of π+ mesons on polarized protons γ + p↑ → π+ + n has been studied in the four-momentum transfer range 0.1 ? |t| ? 1.25 (GeV/c)2 for photon energies of 2.5, 3.4 and 5.0 GeV. The measurements were carried out on a polarized butanol target. Both particles in the final state were detected: the pion by a magnetic spectrometer, the recoil nucleon in a scintillation counter matrix. The asymmetry was found to be negative with values around ?0.4. |
