Abstract We show that the π + − 3 He asymmetry data obtained in a recent TRIUMF experiment at T π = 100 MeV can be understood in terms of the elementary π N amplitudes. Through a comparison to a full optical-potential calculation that employs realistic Faddeev wave functions for the trinucleon we show that all nuclear-structure dependence cancels for A y at lower energies. At higher pion energies around the Δ-resonance region the sign flip of A y offers the possibility of extracting information about the smaller partial waves.
