Single-Spin Asymmetry of Charged Hadron Production in pA-Collisions at 40 GeV and c.m. Angles 40-79o
Protvino, 2006. – p. 18, figs: 8, tables: 6, refs.: 27.


The transverse single-spin asymmetry has been measured for charged hadrons (pi{pm}, K{pm}, p, \bar{p}, produced in proton-nucleus collisions in c.m. angle range 40-79o. The measurements have been performed at FODS-2 experimental setup using IHEP 40 GeV polarized beam and nuclear targets (C and Cu). The data are obtained in polarized proton fragmentation region ((0,0 < xF < 0,7; 0,6 < pT < 2,5 GeV/c). The single-spin asymmetry for pi{pm}-mesons becomes large at high xF, in agreement with the data, obtained at other energies. Significant analyzing power has been observed for protons which changes its sign at xF = 0.43. The dependence of analyzing power off target nuclei mass is not significant.
