The COSY accelerator (Jülich, Germany) provides beams of polarised protons and deuterons. The ANKE facility at COSY is equipped with polarised hydrogen and deuterium atomic gas targets. The reactions investigated with polarised probes at ANKE include the deuteron break-up at small and large momentum transfer, the pion production processes in pp and pn collisions and the near-threshold η meson production in dip d-vector p→{sup 3}Heη process. Use of the polarised deuteron beam properties allowed a precision measurement of the η meson mass. The future experimental program covers the study of the elementary pp and pn-interaction with polarised beams up to the maximal COSY energy, and a double polarised measurement of the A {sub x, z }spin correlation parameter in the pN → {pp}{sub s }π process.
