During the contract year progress was made in data analysis and interpretation of a number of ANL-ZGS experiments. Results were published for seven experiments: E-415 (direct electron production); E-395, measurement of ..delta..sigma/sub T/ in the 1 to 3 GeV/c Region; measurement of p--p elastic scattering at 6 GeV; E-408, asymmetries in inclusive proton--nucleon scattering at 11.75 GeV/c; E-437, polarization of elastic p--p and p--n scattering at 1.03 GeV; E-437, analyzing power in the reaction p+d..-->..d+p and p+p..-->..d+..pi.. at GeV energies; and E-434; measurement of the energy dependence of ..delta..sigma/sub T/ and A/sub nn/ for p--p scattering in the 1 to 3 GeV/c region. In addition, three new experiments were undertaken at ZGS: E-434, measurement of A/sub nn/ in p--p scattering at 12 GeV/c; E-445, assymmetries in inclusive pion production with a polarized beam and target; E-425, studies of np and pp A/sub nn/ using a polarized beam. During the year the new polarized target PPT-VI became operational and was used in experiments. The new PDP 11/34 computer became operational for data analysis. A list of publications is included.
