Abstract
The experimental results on the right-left scattering asymmetry of hel icopter-polarized Ne(2p(5)3s(3)P(j)) atoms, either in state \j = 2, m = +2 > or \j = 2, m = -2 > colliding with Ar, are presented and qualit atively interpreted in the framework of the sudden-locking model. It i s shown that this model provides a simple description of key features of the cross section difference and the relation between it and the to tal cross section for scattering of unpolarized atoms.
