Recently Ay asymmetry measurements have been conducted in Jefferson Lab's Hall A through electron scattering from a vertically polarized ^3He target. Experiment E08-005 measured the target single-spin asymmetry Ay in the quasi-elastic ^3He^(e,e'n) reaction. Plane wave impulse approximation (PWIA) predicts that Ay should be exactly zero. A previous experiment at Q^2 of 0.2 (GeV/c)^2, where full calculations of Laget and Nagorny indicated Ay to be small, showed a large asymmetry as calculated by the Bochum group using Faddeev calculations to solve the three-body problem exactly. The recent experiment measured this asymmetry at Q^2 of 0.1 (GeV/c)^2, 0.5 (GeV/c)^2 and 1.0 (GeV/c)^2. This is the first measurement of Ay at large Q^2, which is another region where Ay is expected to be small. Any non-zero result is an indication of effects beyond simple impulse approximation. This measurement will test the models used to extract neutron form factors from polarized ^3He. Details of the measurement will be presented.
