Abstract

The results of various experiments that measured a single-spin asymmetry in inclusive pion production are analyzed in the energy range between 13 and 200 GeV. The experimental fact that the single-spin asymmetry begins increasing at one universal value of the pion energy in the c.m. frame is established.
