R. Meier et al., VECTOR ANALYZING POWER MEASUREMENT OF PION-SCATTERING FROM POLARIZED LI-7 IN THE REGION OF THE DELTA(33) RESONANCE, Physical review. C. Nuclear physics, 49(1), 1994, pp. 320-323
The inclusive vector analyzing power iT(11) of pi+ -->Li-7 elastic sca
ttering and inelastic scattering to the 0.47 MeV excited state was mea
sured at several angles for T-pi = 134, 164, and 194 MeV. The polariza
tion effects were found to be small but non-zero, the trend of the dat
a is well described by a coupled channels calculation. The results of
the calculation are more sensitive to variations of the nuclear struct
ure input than to variations of the reaction mechanism.
