Description
Summary:The Canadian High Acceptance Orbit Spectrometer (CHAOS), which is a 360 degree magnetic spectrometer designed for use in various πN experiments, is introduced. The physics program, constituent elements of the detector, analysis techniques, and commis sioning results are discussed. In particular, π+p elastic scattering data acquired at an incident pion energy of 280 MeV with a singles trigger on a liquid hydrogen target are presented. === Science, Faculty of === Physics and Astronomy, Department of === Graduate
