Title: Recent results and future prospects for the polarized beam at Fermilab

Conference ·
OSTI ID:5999691

We summarize activities concerning the Fermilab polarized beams. They include a brief description of the polarized-beam facility, measurements of beam polarization by polarimeters, asymmetry measurements in the {pi}{degree} production at high p{sub {perpendicular}} and in the {Lambda} ({Sigma}{degree}), {pi}{sup {plus minus}}, {pi}{degree} production at large x{sub F}, and {Delta}{sigma}{sub L}(pp, {anti p}p) measurements (Fermilab E-704). In the future we plan to investigate the proton-spin crisis by determining the gluon spin distribution in inclusive production of direct gamma, {chi}2, and J/{psi}. 20 refs., 5 figs.
