Abstract
The tensor polarization of the deuteron beam arising as deuterons pass through a carbon target was measured. The experiment was performed with an extracted unpolarized 5-GeV/c deuteron beam of the Nuclotron. The effect observed is compared with the calculations made using the Glauber multiple scattering theory.
