Precision electron-beam polarimetry at 1 GeV using diamond microstrip detectors

2016

Tests of the standard model of particle physics rely on measurements with highly polarized electron beams. A new instrument achieves the highest known precision for determining the beam polarization of low-energy (~1 GeV) electron beams.
