Abstract
We describe the first measurement of the spin dependence of the reaction: µ−+3He→3H+νµ. This spin dependence is quite sensitive to the induced pseudoscalar form factor,F P, a piece of the weak charged nuclear current of3He about which, experimentally, relatively little is known. The data are presently being analyzed and we plan to quote a number forF P shortly.
