Description

A high intensity polarised beam has to be delivered to the P2 experiment at Mainz Energy Recovering Superconducting Accelerator Facility (MESA). The absolute error of the beam polarisation should be ≤0.5 %. To track the polarisation, a Mott polarimeter will be installed after the pre-acceleration of the polarised beam to 5 MeV energy. The goal of this work is to deploy a 5 MeV Mott polarimeter for high polarised beam current ≈100 μA with ≈0.5 % precision. For that, feasible geometries and the detection system are under investigation based on 5 MeV Mott polarimeter from Jefferson Lab and 3.5 MeV Mott polarimeter from Mainz.
