Abstract The polarization in pi /sup +/p to pi /sup +/p and K/sup +/p to K/sup +/p has been measured at 6 and 12 GeV/c in the four-momentum transfer interval 0.1<or= mod t mod <or=2.0 (GeV/c) by scattering on protons of a polarized deuteron target. Comparison with existing results obtained with polarized proton targets shows good general agreement and no evidence for asymmetry effects due to the presence of the spectator neutron. For K/sup +/p elastic scattering polarization the experiment yields improved statistics, especially at 6 GeV/c. (10 refs).
