Abstract

The backscattering of laser radiation by a relativistic electron beam is a widely used method for measuring the spin polarization of electrons. We consider again the properties of the scattering process paying special attention to recoil electrons. Based on this consideration we propose the concept of the Compton polarimeter in which, in addition to all the polarization components, it becomes possible to accurately measure the energy and other parameters of the electron beam. To demonstrate the capabilities of the method we conduct a Monte Carlo simulations of the polarimeter developed for the FCC-ee project.
