A new method to determine the spin tune is described and tested. In an ideal planar magnetic ring, tune-defined as number of precessions per turn-is given by ν(s)=γG (γ Lorentz factor, G gyromagnetic anomaly). At 970 MeV/c, deuteron spins coherently precess at a frequency ≈120 kHz in Cooler Synchrotron COSY. The deduced from up-down asymmetry deuteron-carbon scattering. time interval 2.6 s, was determined with precision order 10^{-8}, 1×10^{-10} for continuous 100 s accelerator cycle. This...
We observe a deuteron beam polarization lifetime near 1000 s in the horizontal plane of magnetic storage ring (COSY). This long spin coherence time is maintained through combination bunching, electron cooling, sextupole field corrections, and suppression collective effects current limits. record required for search an intrinsic electric dipole moment on at statistical sensitivity level approaching 10^{-29} e cm.
Based on the notion that local dark-matter field of axions or axionlike particles (ALPs) in our Galaxy induces oscillating couplings to spins nucleons and nuclei (via electric dipole moment latter and/or paramagnetic axion-wind effect), we establish feasibility a new method search for ALPs storage rings. previous work allows us maintain in-plane polarization stored deuteron beam few hundred seconds, perform first proof-of-principle experiment at Cooler Synchrotron (COSY) scan momenta near...
This paper presents the successful application of a phase-lock feedback system to maintain resonance condition radio frequency (rf) spin rotator (specifically, an rf Wien filter) with respect 120 kHz precession in Cooler Synchrotron (COSY) storage ring. Real-time monitoring and filter signal allows relative phase between two be stabilized at arbitrary setpoint. The compensates for deviations by adjusting and/or as needed. With this method, variation demand standard deviation...
This Letter reports the successful use of feedback from a spin polarization measurement to revolution frequency $0.97\text{ }\text{ }\mathrm{GeV}/c$ bunched and polarized deuteron beam in Cooler Synchrotron (COSY) storage ring order control both precession rate ($\ensuremath{\approx}121\text{ }\mathrm{kHz}$) phase horizontal component. Real time synchronization with radio (rf) solenoid made possible rotation out plane, yielding demonstration method manipulate polarization. In particular,...
The stable spin direction of polarized particles in a storage ring was determined first experimentally, through an accurate measurement the tune and its response to longitudinal magnetic fields.
The proposed method exploits charged particles confined as a storage ring beam (proton, deuteron, possibly $^3$He) to search for an intrinsic electric dipole moment (EDM) aligned along the particle spin axis. Statistical sensitivities could approach 10$^{-29}$ e$\cdot$cm. challenge will be reduce systematic errors similar levels. adjusted preserve polarisation, initially parallel velocity, times in excess of 15 minutes. Large radial fields, acting through EDM, rotate polarisation from...
The paper describes the commissioning of experimental equipment and machine studies required for first spin-filtering experiment with protons at a beam kinetic energy 49.3 MeV in COSY. implementation low-$\ensuremath{\beta}$ insertion made it possible to achieve lifetimes ${\ensuremath{\tau}}_{b}=8000\text{ }\text{ }\mathrm{s}$ presence dense polarized hydrogen storage-cell target areal density...
The PAX Collaboration has successfully performed a spin-filtering experiment with protons at the COSY-ring. measurement allowed determination of spin-dependent polarizing cross section, that compares well theoretical prediction from nucleon–nucleon potential. test confirms can be adopted as method to polarize stored beam and present interpretation mechanism in terms proton–proton interaction is correct. outcome utmost importance view possible application antiprotons.
The unpolarised differential cross section and the two deuteron tensor analysing powers A xx yy of $$\vec dp \to \{ pp\} _s n$$ charge-exchange reaction have been measured with ANKE spectrometer at COSY storage ring. Using beams energies 1.2, 1.6, 1.8, 2.27GeV, data were obtained for small momentum transfers to a {pp} s system low excitation energy. results three lower are consistent impulse approximation predictions based upon current knowledge neutron-proton amplitudes. However, where...
The proton analysing power in $\vec{p}p$ elastic scattering has been measured at small angles COSY-ANKE 796 MeV and five other beam energies between 1.6 2.4 GeV using a polarised beam. asymmetries obtained by detecting the fast ANKE forward detector or slow recoil silicon tracking telescope are completely consistent. Although results agree well with many published data MeV, also most recent partial wave solution this energy, higher lie above predictions of angles. An updated phase shift...
A low-energy spin-physics program is being developed at the COSY storage ring. To support planned experimental activities, several tools for polarized beams and targets have been developed. The paper presents physics case readiness of setup its realization.
The phi-meson leptonic widths, Gee and Gmm, are obtained, respectively, from the e+e- forward-backward asymmetry muon cross section around phi-mass energy. We find Gee=1.32⊕0.05⊕0.03 kev sqrt(GeeGmm)= 1.320⊕0.018⊕0.017 kev. These results, compatible with Gee=Gmm, provide a precise test of lepton universality. Combining two results gives G_lept=1.320⊕0.023
We propose to use an internal polarized hydrogen storage cell gas target in the AD ring determine for first time two total spin-dependent pbar-p cross sections sigma_1 and sigma_2 at antiproton beam energies range from 50 450 MeV. The data obtained are of interest by themselves general theory interactions since they will provide a experimental constraint spin-spin dependence nucleon-antinucleon potential energy interest. In addition, measurements polarization buildup stored antiprotons...
