Title: Location of a polarization extremum in triton-alpha scattering and its application to a new polarized triton source

Abstract

A polarization extremum (A/sub y/=-1) in triton-..cap alpha.. elastic scattering has been experimentally located near E/sub t/=11.1 MeV, theta/sub c.m./=95degree. This is the first application and test of a Lamb-shift polarized tritium ion source which has been installed on the Los Alamos tandem accelerator. The results verify the accuracy of the quench-ratio method for the determination of the polarization of the triton beam. (AIP)
