Abstract
The SPIN-P experimental setup was designed for measuring the P asymmetry during pion scattering into the backward hemisphere at a minimum differential cross section of elastic πpscattering. The physical grounds of the experiment and the results of its simulation by the Monte Carlo method are presented. The setup is composed of a polarized proton target in a superconducting solenoid with vertical polarization of free protons, wire track detectors, scintillation counters, electronics for data readout and processing, and an appropriate computer network. The experimental program has been under way since 2002 on the pion beam of the proton synchrotron at the Institute of Theoretical and Experimental Physics (Moscow).
