We recently accelerated a polarized proton beam from 95 to 380MeV through both the {ital G}{gamma}=2 imperfection depolarizing resonance and the {ital G}{gamma}=7{minus}{nu}{sub {ital y}} intrinsic depolarizing resonance. The imperfection resonance flipped the spin, while the intrinsic resonance initially caused partial depolarization. We then pulsed a vertical kicker magnet for about 500ns to increase the beam{close_quote}s vertical betatron amplitude; this made the intrinsic resonance much stronger. By varying the strength and start time of the kicker, we observed a sharp spin flip due to the now very strong intrinsic depolarizing resonance. {copyright} {ital 1996 The American Physical Society.}
