  We demonstrate spin injection and detection in single wall carbon nanotubes
using a 4-terminal, non-local geometry. This measurement geometry completely
separates the charge and spin circuits. Hence all spurious magnetoresistance
effects are eliminated and the measured signal is due to spin accumulation
only. Combining our results with a theoretical model, we deduce a spin
polarization at the contacts of approximately 25 %. We show that the
magnetoresistance changes measured in the conventional two-terminal geometry
are dominated by effects not related to spin accumulation.
