We report measurements of the exclusive electroproduction reaction e+p→e+π++n for pions produced near 0° in the virtual-photon-proton center-of-mass system with values of ε in the range 0.35<ε<0.45. Combination with data taken at ε near 1 allows us to separate the contributions from transversely polarized and scalar photons in the range 1.2 GeV2

We have measured the asymmetry of the cross section for γp→π+n from a polarized target at 5 and 16 GeV. The range of four-momentum transfer was 0.02<~−t<~1.0 GeV2. The π+ mesons were produced in a polarized butanol target and detected with the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center 20−GeVc spectrometer. A sizable asymmetry was found at both 5 and 16 GeV, a typical value being -0.6 near −t=0.3 GeV2. A small amount of data on the asymmetry of other photoproduction processes was also obtained.
