Advances with the RHIC Proton-Carbon Polarimeters for the 2006 Run

Year: 2006

Type: report

Abstract: During the 2006 polarized proton run at RHIC, the proton-carbon polarimeters continued to serve as the primary monitors of the beam polarization. Since the installation of the polarimeters prior to the 2001-2002 run, the CNI Polarimeter Group has worked to improve the operation and functionality of these devices. For the 2006 run several new features and measurement techniques were implemented. These include improving the display of “online” polarization results, measurement of the transverse beam size, and measurement of the spin tune. This report discusses the details of these new features for the RHIC proton-carbon polarimeters.
