THE FOLLOWING COMMENTS ARE TAKEN FROM THE PI N COMPILATION OF R.L. KELLY. THEY ARE THAT COMPILATION& apos;S COMPLETE SET OF COMMENTS FOR PAPERS RELATED TO THE SAME EXPERIMENT (DESIGNATED MARTIN74) AS THE CURRENT PAPER. (THE IDENTIFIER PRECEDING THE REFERENCE AND COMMENT FOR EACH PAPER IS FOR CROSS-REFERENCING WITHIN THESE COMMENTS ONLY AND DOES NOT NECESSARILY AGREE WITH THE SHORT CODE USED ELSEWHERE IN THE PRESENT COMPILATION.) /// MARTIN72 [J. F. MARTIN AND J. C. SLEEMAN,PRIV. COMM.,1972] -- PRELIMINARY VERSION OF SLEEMAN74 DATA. /// MARTIN72T [J. F. MARTIN,HEP/T/35(OXFORD THESIS),1972.] -- THESIS ON DATA ABOVE 1.4 GEV/C. /// SLEEMAN74 [J. C. SLEEMAN,PRIV. COMM.,1974.] -- DATA TAPE AND LISTING OF FINAL RESULTS OF THE EXPERIMENT. /// THRESHER74 [J. J. THRESHER,PRIV. COMM.,1974.] -- TWO ERRORS,STATISTICAL AND SYSTEMATIC,ARE RECORDED FOR EACH DATA POINT ON THE SLEEMAN74 DATA TAPE. DECIDING HOW TO USE THESE PROPERLY IN A FITTING PROGRAM IS NOT STRAIGHTFORWARD,PARTICULARLY SINCE (ACCORDING TO MARTIN72T AND THRESHER74) THE SYSTEMATIC ERRORS TEND TO BE SOMEWHAT CORRELATED BETWEEN DIFFERENT BINS. HOWEVER,THE CORRELATION BETWEEN THE STATISTICAL AND SYSTEMATIC ERROR IN A SINGLE BIN IS NOT LARGE,THE FIRST COMING MAINLY FROM EVENT COUNTING AND THE SECOND MAINLY FROM BACKGROUND ESTIMATION (SEE MARTIN72T). ON ADVICE OF THRESHER74 WE HAVE COMBINED THE STATISTICAL AND SYSTEMATIC ERRORS FOR EACH BIN IN QUADRATURE,AND HAVE NOT ATTEMPTED TO TAKE CORRELATIONS BETWEEN DIFFERENT BINS INTO ACCOUNT. /// MARTIN74 [J. F. MARTIN,RL-74-016,1974.] -- PREPRINT VERSION OF MARTIN75. NOT IDENTICAL TO MARTIN75. /// MARTIN75 [J. F. MARTIN,NP B89,253(1975)] -- PI+ P POL AT 68 MOMENTA BETWEEN 603 AND 2651 MEV/C. DONE AT NIMROD WITH LMN TARGET,SCINTILLATION COUNTER HODOSCOPES,AND CHERENKOV COUNTERS TO RESOLVE THE REGION OF KINEMATIC AMBIGUITY AND REDUCE BACKGROUND. THE NE IS RECORDED AS +/-6 PCT OVERALL AND +/-2 PCT RESIDUAL AT EACH MOMENTUM. THIS IS AN OVERSIMPLIFICATION AS DATA WERE TAKEN SIMULTANEOUSLY AT PAIRS OF MOMENTA SEPARATED BY ABOUT 1.9 PCT. THE RESIDUAL NE OF SUCH A PAIR IS 2 PCT,BUT THE NORMALIZATIONS FOR THE TWO MEMBERS OF THE PAIR ARE 100 PCT CORRELATED. THE MARTIN75 DATA ARE NOT THE SAME AS THE SLEEMAN74 DATA. /// COMMENTS ON MODIFICATIONS TO LOVELACE71 COMPILATION BY KELLY -- LOVELACE71 VERSION COMES FROM TWO PRELIMINARY VERSIONS OF THE DATA EARLIER THAN MARTIN72 (LOVELACE71IDS=BROWN70 AND SLEEMA71). MANY MAJOR DIFFERENCES. RUTHERFORD, POLARIZED TARGET. RUTHERFORD, POLARIZED TARGET. RUTHERFORD, POLARIZED TARGET. RUTHERFORD, POLARIZED TARGET. RUTHERFORD, POLARIZED TARGET.
