Outline

• Basics of the phenomenon

• Estimation of the effect

• Numerical example


Definition

P = 0A ≠ 0P ≠ 0


Junior hunter exercise

P = 0A ≠ 0P ≠ 0


Senior hunter exercise

P = 0A ≠ 0P ≠ 0


Consequence from the definition

Beam,

extracted by means of the bent crystal,

must be polarized

by definition.

Critical channeling angle in Si

θ = 5 μrad / p½(TeV/c)½

@ p = 70 GeV/c => θ ≈ 20 μrad

100 mrad bend gives N = 5000

If AH(t) = A0 |t/t0|½

for very small –t < t0 = 10-3 GeV2

and A0 = AH(10-3 GeV2) = 0.005Then P ≈ 0.8


Dependence on the A0

AH(t) = A0 |t/t0|½


Conclusions

• Bent crystal extraction provides polarization in the resulted beam.

• The beam polarization could be measurable

• or even big enough for practical needs.
