Single Spin Asymmetry in High Pt Charged Hadron Production off Nuclei at 40 GeV

Authors

Description

The single transverse spin asymmetry data for the charged hadron production in pC and pCu interactions are presented. The measurements have been performed at FODS-2 experimental setup using 40 GeV/c IHEP polarized proton beam. The hadron transverse momentum range is from 0.5 GeV/c up to 4 GeV/c. The data obtained off the nuclear targets are compared with the proton target data measured earlier with the same experimental setup and with the data of other experiments.
