Beam Polarization: Raw Results 2002

Results 2002

05 February 2002 9:15-11:15.

The beam energy is 5.784 (accel) or 5.754 (Tiefenback). Injector angle is -34.^o, the 1/2 wave plate was OUT.

The laser frequency provided a bulk extraction from the GAs crystal, the polarization expected was therefor about 30-40%.

LG1 tripped at high HV and was therefore turned off.

Supermendur target P=7.95% (old). Target Angles and Beam Polarizations. The theta acceptance is about +/-15^o? and the mean analysing power is 0.76. The error is statistical only.

At the beginning we had problems with DAQ - the ADC trigger (#1) was running spuriously with no gate signal. Also, as a week before, the input signals in the TRI (trigger module) were wrong. Plugging/unplugging the ECL cables fixed the problem... The input#8 was moved to a different NIM-ECL module.

Dipole scan shows that the dipole is close to the optimum see the plot .

For the dead-time correction measurements were done at 0.2, 0.46 and 0.95µA (see the plot ). Extrapolation to zero beam current would give a correction of 0.33±0.05% absolute, or 0.41±0.06% relative to the beam polarization.
