电子-离子对撞机用新型旋光偏振计

A Novel Spin-Light Polarimeter for the Electron Ion Collider

Prajwal Mohanmurthy

摘要:

一种新型的精密旋光计将在很长一段时间内满足精密实验的要求,计划为未来的设施,如电子离子对撞机。基于同步辐射自旋光分量空间分布不对称性的旋光仪将是现有传统的穆勒和康普顿旋光仪的一个很好的补充。自旋光偏振仪是由一组沿光束方向排列的产生同步辐射的Wriggler磁铁组成。同步辐射的空间分布是由准直后的电离室测量的。在横向平面上的上下空间不对称性被用来量化光束的偏振。作为设计过程的一部分,首先,粗略的计算出来,以确定这种想法的有效性。其次,使用由洛斯阿拉莫斯国家实验室维护的名为Poisson Superfish的二维磁场仿真工具包来模拟Wriggler磁体的边缘场。这是用来考虑束流运动的影响和相应的相关性被证明是可以忽略不计的。最后,建立了一个完整的GEANT-4模拟来研究电离室的响应时间。分析了GEANT-4模拟中可能妨碍精密偏振测量的各种影响。结果表明,旋光偏振计是一种很好的相对偏振计。

英文摘要:

A novel precision polarimeter will go a long way in satisfying the requirements of the precision experiments being planned for a future facility such as the Electron Ion Collider. A polarimeter based on the asymmetry in the spacial distribution of the spin light component of synchrotron radiation will make for a fine addition to the existing-conventional Møller and Compton polarimeters. The spin light polarimeter consists of a set of wriggler magnet along the beam that generate synchrotron radiation. The spacial distribution of synchrotron radiation will be measured by an ionization chamber after being collimated. The up-down spacial asymmetry in the transverse plane is used to quantify the polarization of the beam. As a part of the design process, firstly, a rough calculation was drawn out to establish the validity of such an idea. Secondly, the fringe fields of the wriggler magnet was simulated using a 2-D magnetic field simulation toolkit called Poisson Superfish, which is maintained by Los Alamos National Laboratory. This was used to account for beam motion effects and the corresponding correlations were show to be negligible. Lastly, a full fledged GEANT-4 simulation was built to study the response time of the ionization chamber. This GEANT-4 simulation was analyzed for variety of effects that may hinder precision polarimetry. It was found that a Spin-Light Polarimeter would be a fine relative polarimeter.
