The polarized electron-nucleon collider project ENC at GSI/FAIR
The ENC project attempts to realize an electron-nucleon collider at the upcoming Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research FAIR at GSI Darmstadt by utilizing the antiproton high-energy storage ring HESR for polarized proton and deuteron beams. The addition of a 3.3 GeV storage ring for polarized electrons will enable electron-nucleon collisions up to a center-of-mass energy of - s - 14 GeV. In such a configuration peak luminosities in the range of L = 10(32) to 10(33)cm(-')(2)s(-')(1) are feasible . Beam-beam effects in a space-charge dominated regimes in conjunction with high-energy electron cooling represents one of the main challenges for this project. In this paper beam- and spin dynamic…
First Measurement of the Gerasimov-Drell-Hearn Sum Rule forH1from 0.7 to 1.8 GeV at ELSA
To verify the fundamental Gerasimov-Drell-Hearn (GDH) sum rule for the first time experimentally, we measured the helicity dependent total photoabsorption cross section with circularly polarized real photons and longitudinally polarized nucleons in the photon energy range 0.68-1.82 GeV with the tagged photon facility at ELSA. The experiment was carried out with a 4pi detection system, a circularly polarized tagged photon beam, and a frozen spin polarized proton target. The contribution to the GDH sum rule in this photon energy range is [49.9+/-2.4(stat)+/-2.2(syst)] mub.
Measurement of Helicity-Dependent Photoabsorption Cross Sections on the Neutron from 815 to 1825 MeV
Helicity-dependent total photoabsorption cross sections on the deuteron have been measured for the first time at ELSA (Bonn) in the photon energy range from 815 to 1825 MeV. Circularly polarized tagged photons impinging on a longitudinally polarized LiD target have been used together with a highly efficient 4pi detector system. The data around 1 GeV are not compatible with predictions from existing multipole analyses. From the measured energy range an experimental contribution to the GDH integral on the neutron of [33.9 +/- 5.5(stat) +/- 4.5(syst)] microb is extracted.
Workshop on Sources of Polarized Leptons and High Brightness Electron Beams
This volume contains the proceedings of the International Workshop on Sources of Polarized Leptons and High Brightness Electron Beams (PESP2010). The workshop was hosted by the University of Bonn from 21–24 September 2010. PESP2010 has been conducted as satellite workshop preceding the International SPIN Physics Symposium (SPIN2010). In view of the expanding and challenging field of the production of high brightness lepton beams, the selection of workshop topics was extended to cover the demands of modern accelerator developments and applications. As novel light sources such as FELs and ERLs place new requirements on the properties of unpolarized beams in terms of brightness and intensity, …
Experimental Check of the Gerasimov-Drell-Hearn Sum Rule for H1
For the first time we checked the fundamental Gerasimov-Drell-Hearn (GDH) sum rule for the proton experimentally in the photon energy range from 0.2-2.9 GeV with the tagged photon facilities at MAMI (Mainz) and ELSA (Bonn). New data of the doubly polarized total cross section difference are presented in the energy range from 1.6 to 2.9 GeV. The contribution to the GDH integral from 0.2-2.9 GeV yields [254+/-5(stat)+/-12(syst)] microb with negative contributions in the Regge regime at photon energies above 2.1 GeV. This trend supports the validity of the GDH sum rule.
