The energy dependence of the analyzing power A y for the pp → π + d reaction was measured during polarized beam acceleration from 500 to 800 MeV, using an internal target inserted into the beam every acceleration cycle. The measurements were made with the pion laboratory angle fixed at 68° and with incident proton energy bins varying from 10 to 30 MeV in width. The statistical accuracy per bin is ΔA y ⋍ 0.06 .
Statistical errors onnly.
The analyzing power A y 0 in the reaction p↑p→dπ + has been measured using the polarized proton beam at Argonne National Laboratory's zero gradient synchrotron. Data were taken at beam momenta of 1.17, 1.47, 1.70, and 1.96 GeV/ c and for pion center of mass angles from 8° to 163°.

A precision measurement of the angular distribution of the analyzing power of the reaction p + p → d + π + has been made at 0.8 GeV. It is shown that none of the existing theoretical calculations, including those which introduce resonant dibaryon amplitudes, reproduce even the qualitative features of the data. It is concluded that our data do not require dibaryon admixtures of the kind proposed for the interpretation of recent data on vector analyzing power, i T 11 (θ), of π− d elastic scattering at the same center of mass energy.
