Comparative Introduction
What is Synchrotron Radiation?First seen in General Electric Lab, 1947
Angular Distribution
So where is spin dependence?With QED Corrections by A.A.Sokolov and I.M.Ternov (1960s)
Spin dependent term Spin flip dependent term
Verified at VEPP-4 storage ring in NovosibirskBelomesthnykh et. al., NIM 227, 173 (1984)

What are Spin-Light Characteristics?Spin light characteristics

Conceptual Design
Won’t all the fans of SR merge?The SR fans may be selected out after each dipole and collimated before being fed into the DIC.
Notice only 2 fans are required for polarimetry, 4 fans are for statistics.
What are Spin-Light Characteristics?A differential ionization chamber can be used to measure the asymmetry.
SR (+ SpinLight)
• The ionization chamber can use Xenon• A split plane IC can pick out small up-
down asymmetries in SR - influx.• At the IC, the collimated SR beam spots
shall be about 1cm.• Notice: Figure on left is only one half of
the actual IC. The middle plate is held at an intermediate potential.

Geant 4 Simulation
Geant 4 Simulation ResultsSimulation reproduces photon spectrum and asymmetry
Only a single DIC is being simulated along with collimators
What about Background Simulations?
Background events are mostly Bremsstrahlung events from the collimators
SR Spots from GEANT4?
Notice only 2 fans are required for polarimetry, 4 fans are for statistics.
Note: The Geant4 simulation plots are all for just one split plane IC, on one side of beamline.

• 3 dipole magnet: .1m dipoles separated by 1m. DIC 10m away
• Asymmetry in SR gives spin light component -> Polarization
• A non invasive and continuous method• Minimal effect due to B field asymmetries & non uniform beam profile
It can work!

Does the asymmetry in B field change anything?
For each dipole Magnet:There is a reduction in
both the total events and spin-light events (Plot:
Events vs. E(MeV) of the light emitted)
Does the asymmetry in B field change anything?
For each dipole Magnet:Even though there was a
decrease in SR and SpinLight events, the asymmetry
remains the same.
Does the Gaussian Beam profile change anything?

SR Profile for Point Cross section of BeamThe graph shows events as seen at the
DICFor a point beam cross section, the SR
profile is “box” like.
Does the Gaussian Beam profile change anything?Finite Beam size

For a Gaussian beam profile, the SR profile is “box” with smooth edges. Notice the
asymmetry has not changed. 200μNote: Has
been scaled to make it
visible
Do the B field and dimensions affect?
B field was chosen to
be 4T
YES!
And the corresponding pole length of 10cm. This corresponds to a 10mrad angular beam
bend.
