Abstract/Summary:
A series of experiments using a polarized beam incident on a polarized frozen spin target.;(FROST) was conducted at Jefferson Lab in 2010. Results presented here were taken.;during the second running period with the FROST target using the CEBAF Large Acceptance.;Spectrometer (CLAS) detector at Jefferson Lab, which used transversely-polarized.;protons in a butanol target and a circularly-polarized incident tagged photon beam with.;energies between 0.62 and 2.93 GeV. Data are presented for the F and T polarization observables.;for h meson photoproduction on the proton from W = 1.55 GeV to 1.80 GeV.;The data presented here will improve the world database and refine theoretical approaches.;of nucleon structure.
