Abstract

The composite spin observable 22(T22+T20/ 6) has been measured at five incident pion energies between 134 and 294 MeV, in an angular range between 90°and 170°, using a tensor-polarized deuterium target. New, accurate data for the vector analyzing power iT11 were obtained at the same time. In combination with the results reported in part I of this series, our measurements allow us to determine the three analyzing powers T20, T21, and T22, separately, and compare them with existing theoretical calculations, all of which fail, in one way or another, to reproduce the entire data set.
