Abstract

This Technical Note introduces to a simulation of spin dynamics in a Wien filter used as a spin rotator, based on (i) the use of a semi-analytical model for the electrostatic and magnetostatic vectors and (ii) step-wise ray-tracing techniques. It shows that the method reproduces theoretical expectations.

High-Gradient Wien Spin Rotators at Jefferson Lab

Conference Palacios Serrano, G.; Adderley, P.; Grames, J.; ...

Nuclear physics experiments performed in the Continuous Electron Beam Accelerator Facility (CEBAF) at Jefferson Laboratory (JLab) require spin manipulation of electron beams. Two Wien spin rotators in the injector keV region are essential at CEBAF to establish longitudinal polarization at the end station target, and to flip the polarization direction by ? rad to rule out false asymmetries. In a Wien filter, the homogeneous and independent electric and magnetic fields, along with the velocity vectors of the electrons that traverse it, form a mutually orthogonal system. The magnitude of the electrostatic field, established by biasing two highly-polished electrodes, defines themore »« less

HIGH VOLTAGE DESIGN AND EVALUATION OF WIEN FILTERS FOR THE CEBAF 200 keV INJECTOR UPGRADE

Conference Palacios-Serrano, G.; Adderley, P.; Benesch, J.; ...

High-energy nuclear physics experiments at the Jefferson Lab Continuous Electron Beam Accelerator Facility (CEBAF) require highly spin-polarization electron beams, produced from strained super-lattice GaAs photocathodes, activated to negative electron affinity in a photogun operating at 130 kV dc. A pair of Wien filter spin rotators in the injector defines the orientation of the electron beam polarization at the end station target. An upgrade of the CEBAF injector to better support the upcoming MOLLER experiment requires increasing the electron beam energy to 200 keV, to reduce unwanted helicity correlated intensity and position systematics and provide precise control of the polarization orientation.more »« less

Electrostatic Design and Characterization of a 200 keV Photogun and Wien Spin Rotator

Thesis/Dissertation Palacios-Serrano, Gabriel

High-energy nuclear physics experiments at the Jefferson Lab Continuous Electron Beam Accelerator Facility (CEBAF) require high spin-polarization electron beams produced from strained super-lattice GaAs photocathodes activated to negative electron affinity in a high voltage photogun operating at 130 kV dc. A pair of Wien filter spin rotators in the injector provides precise control of the electron beam polarization at the end station target. An upgrade of the CEBAF injector to better support the upcoming Moller experiment requires increasing the electron beam energy to 200 keV, resulting in better transmission through injector apertures and improved photocathode lifetime.

New tilted-poles Wien filter with enhanced performance

Journal Article Leal-Quiros, E; Prelas, M - Rev. Sci. Instrum.; (United States)

The Wien filter is an E x B deflecting analyzer with the electrostatic field perpendicular to the magnetostatic field. The twofold functions of the Wien filter are as an energy analyzer as well as a mass analyzer. It has very high resolution for paraxial charged-particle beams with V = E/B, the Wien velocity. Two Wien filters, a tilted-poles Wien filter, and a classical parallel-rectangular-poles Wien filter were built and tested for electrons up to 3.5 keV and protons beams of 200 eV. (The tilted-poles Wien filter is a new diagnostic developed by the authors.) The performance of the two ismore »« less
