The free spin precession (FSP) method is considered as an alternative to the well-known approach based on the use of the resonant depolarization scanning procedure (RDP). The main advantage of FSP over RDP is that the spin tune will be determined directly from the Fourier spectrum of the signal from the Compton polarimeter measuring the oscillations of the longitudinal spin component. This...
The ultimate goal of the Future Circular electron-positron Collider is performing particle physics experiments at an unprecedented precision from the Z-pole up to above the top-pair-threshold. This demands, among others, an excellent knowledge of the center-of-mass energy and, hence, the beam energies. By depolarizing polarized pilot bunches with a RF-kicker and recording the change of...
The Electron-Ion Collider (EIC) at Brookhaven National Laboratory will collide polarized protons between 41 and 275 GeV against polarized electrons ranging from 5 to 18 GeV, achieving luminosities up to 10^34 cm^{-2} s^{-1}. We review the factors impacting the expected polarization transmission and lifetime for the EIC's Electron injector systems, Storage Ring (ESR), the Hadron injector...
In order to perform the precise energy calibration for the Z and WW modes of the FCC-ee machine, the use of Resonant Depolarization (RDP) method on a set of non-colliding polarized bunches is foreseen. To track the polarization state of these bunches while scanning the depolarization excitation frequency a Compton Polarimeter will be deployed on both colliding beams.
