We investigate spin transport through polarization-resolved spectroscopy by propagating polariton condensates in a quasi-one-dimensional microcavity ridge along macroscopic distances. Under circularly polarized, continuous-wave, nonresonant excitation, a sinusoidal precession of the spin in real spa...
