At the electron accelerator ELSA a linearly polarised tagged photon beam is produced by coherent bremsstrahlung off a diamond crystal. Orientation and energy range of the linear polarisation can be deliberately chosen by accurate positioning of the crystal with a goniometer. The degree of polarisation is determined by the form of the scattered electron spectrum. Good agreement between experiment and expectations on basis of the experimental conditions is obtained. Polarisation degrees of P = 40% are typically achieved at half of the primary electron energy. The determination of P is confirmed by measuring the beam asymmetry, \Sigma, in pi^0 photoproduction and a comparison of the results to independent measurements using laser backscattering.

A Measurement of the Beam Asymmetry Parameter Sigma for Neutral Pion Photoproduction in the Energy Range 1.2-GeV-2.8-GeV

Bussey, P.J. ; Raine, C. ; Rutherglen, J.G. ; et al.

Nucl.Phys.B 104 (1976) 253-276, 1976.

Inspire Record 100818 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.8492

An experiment has been completed at the Daresbury synchrotron to measure the asymmetry in the photoproduction cross section of neutral pions on hydrogen, for photons polarised normal to and in the production plane. The source of polarised photons was coherent bremsstrahlung of electrons traversing the lattice structure of diamond and the polarisation P of the γ beam was calculated from the measured intensity of the coherent spike. The asymmetry parameter Σ, defined as Σ = ( σ ⊥ − σ |)/( σ ⊥ + σ |) where σ ⊥( σ |) are the cross sections for photons polarised perpendicular (parallel) to the production plane, has been measured over a range of photon energies from 1.2 to 2.8 GeV and over a range of − t (the square of the four-momentum transfer) from 0.13 (GeV/ c ) 2 to 1.4 (GeV/ c ) 2 . A marked energy variation in the value of Σ is found over the energy region 1.6–1.8 GeV.
