The Comparative Study of the Inclusive $π^0$ Analyzing Power in Reactions p+p(pol)->π^0 + X and π^-+p(pol)->π^0 + X at 50 and 40 Gev/C Respectively

Single-spin asymmetries $A_N$ in reactions p+p(pol)->π^0 + X and π^-+p(pol)->π^0 + X at 50 and 40 GeV/c respectively behave in drastically different ways in function of transverse momentum in the central region. At the same time $A_N$ in the polarized proton fragmentation region of these reactions are practically coinciding. Our new data on the analyzing power at 50 GeV/c in the polarized proton fragmentation region in reaction p+p(pol)->π^0 + X confirm this conclusion with better statistics and coincide with our previous data at 70 GeV/c for the same reaction.

New Polarization Program at U70 (SPASCHARM Project)

The new polarization program SPASCHARM is being prepared in Protvino. The program has two stages. The first stage is dedicated to single-spin asymmetries in the production of miscellaneous light resonances with the use of 34 GeV $π^-$-beam. Inclusive and exclusive reactions will be studied simultaneously. The second stage is dedicated to single-spin and double-spin asymmetries in charmonium production with the use of 70 GeV polarized proton beam which will allow us to understand charmonium hadronic production mechanism and make gluon polarization $Δg(x)$ extraction at large $x$.

Single spin asymmetry measurements for $π^0$ inclusive productions in $p+p_{\uparrow} \to π^0 + X$ and $π^-+\p_{\uparrow}\to π^0+X$ reactions at 70 and 40 GeV respectively

The inclusive $π^0$ asymmetries were measured in reactions $p+p\uparrow \to π^0+X$ and $π^-+p\uparrow \to π^0+X$ at 70 and 40 GeV/c respectively. The measurements were made at the central region (for the first reaction) and asymmetry is compatible with zero in the entire measured $p_T$ region. For the second reaction the asymmetry is zero for small $x_F$ region ($-0.4<x_F<-0.1, 0.5<p_T(GeV/c) <1.5$) and increases with growth of $\mid x_F\mid$. Averaged over the interval $-0.8<x_F<-0.4, 1<p_T(GeV/c)<2$ the asymmetry was $-(13.8\pm 3.8)%$.

$A_N$ at small negative values of $\xf$ in the reaction $p+p(pol) \to π^0+X$ at 70 GeV and universal threshold in inclusive pion production

The talk continues the series of Single Spin Asymmetry (SSA) $π^0$ inclusive measurements carried out at Protvino 70 GeV accelerator. The asymmetry in the polarized target fragmentation region grows up in absolute value with $\xf$ decreasing and equals to $(-16 \pm 5)%$ at $-0.4<\xf<-0.25$. The result of the current experiment is in agreement with the universal threshold in pion asymmetries.
