Fixed-target pp and pA collisions with a proton beam at the TeV scale provide unique laboratories for the study of the nucleon’s internal dynamics and, more in general, for the investigation of the complex phenomena arising in the non-perturbative regime of QCD. Due to the substantial boost of the reaction products in the laboratory frame, fixed-target collisions allow to access the poorly...

Photo-electron sources using GaAs-based photocathodes are used to provide high-brightness and high-current beams of (spin-polarized) electrons for accelerator applications such as free-electron lasers (FELs) and energy recovery linacs (ERLs). Such cathodes require a thin surface layer consisting of Cs and an oxidant in order to achieve negative electron affinity (NEA) for efficient...

In the last 60 years Sona-transition units are used to invert occupation numbers of pure states through a fast-changing magnetic field through a zero crossing point. The inversion of the magnetic quantisation axis is then changing fast enough such that the Lamor precession cannot follow. In addition, we observed that spectroscopy measurements of the hyperfine splitting are possible. In our...

With a dedicated apparatus it was shown that the nuclear polarization of hydrogen atoms and its isotopes, produced by a polarized atomic beam source (ABS), can be preserved during the recombination into molecules. In this way, polarized $H_2$ and $D_2$ molecules in hyperfine substates where both nucleons have the same nuclear spin are generated. In more recent experiments the ABS was used to...

The cross section of the primary reaction in a tokamak fusion reactor, D + T --> α + n, would be increased by 50% if the fuels were fully polarized along the local magnetic field. In a large-scale fusion reactor such as ITER, the power gain could be as much as 75% due to increased alpha heating. Such a boost would be a significant step towards establishing a burning plasma.

A versatile solution is being pursued for the challenging magnetic problem of producing internal fields in compact spaces. It is a promising tool for trapping fields around a polarized target, while shielding out external fields from spectrometers, and in addiction, for generating holding fields for accumulation and transport of polarized fuel in nuclear fusion tests.
