We present spin phase continuous modulation (SPCM), a new method for characterization of neutron beam properties. By utilizing spin-precession modulation induced by two oscillating magnetic fields, the method enables precise determination…

There has been much recent research into polarizing an antiproton beam, instigated by the recent proposal from the PAX (Polarized Antiproton eXperiment) project at GSI Darmstadt. It plans to polarize an antiproton beam by repeated…

We propose realistic methods to detect local spin polarization, which utilize a quantum dot side coupled to the target system. By choosing appropriate states in the dot, we can put spin selectivity to the dot and detect spins in the target…

The description of particles with spin can be attained by using a spin density matrix in high energy reaction. In this paper we present a parametrization of the spin density matrix for spin -3/2 particles in the Cartesian form. Comparing…

Conduction electrons are used to optically polarize, detect and manipulate nuclear spin in a (110) GaAs quantum well. Using optical Larmor magnetometry, we find that nuclear spin can be polarized along or against the applied magnetic field,…

A measure of the degree of polarization for the three-dimensional polarization matrix (coherence matrix) of an electromagnetic field is proposed, based on Rayleigh scattering. The degree of polarization, due to dipole scattering of the…

We demonstrate a coherent quantum measurement for the determination of the degree of polarization (DOP). This method allows to measure the DOP in the presence of fast polarization state fluctuations, difficult to achieve with the typically…

A number of particle physics experiments are being proposed as part of the Department of Energy HEP Intensity Frontier. Many of these experiments will utilize megawatt level proton beams onto targets to form secondary beams of muons, kaons…

Here, we demonstrate the radiative polarization of high-energy electron beams in collisions with ultrashort pulsed bi-chromatic laser fields. Employing a Boltzmann kinetic approach for the electron distribution allows us to simulate the…

We propose a nuclear-spin-polarization protocol in a general evolution-and-measurement framework. The protocol works in a spin-star configuration, where the central spin is coupled to the surrounding bath (nuclear) spins by flip-flop…

A method for measuring the tensor polarization in a positronium (Ps) beam is proposed, which is based on the determination of the Ps lifetime as a function of the orientation of a homogeneous magnetic field. The dependence of the…

Polarization measurements in the X-ray and gamma-ray energy range can provide crucial information on massive compact objects such as black holes and neutron stars. The Polarized Gamma-ray Observer (PoGO) is a new balloon-borne instrument…

Using the formalism of Hamaker et al. (1996), I derive a method for the polarization calibration of observations made with a single radio telescope. This method is particularly appropriate for observations of pulsars, where the sign and…

The feasibility of complete photoionization experiments, in which the full set of photoionization matrix elements are determined, using multiphoton ionization schemes with polarization-shaped pulses has recently been demonstrated [Hockett…

We propose a new method to detect short-range \textit{P-} and \textit{T-} violating interactions between nucleons, based on measuring the precession frequency shift of polarized $^3$He nuclei in the presence of an unpolarized mass. To…

The traditional method of spin-flipping a stored polarized beam is based on slowly crossing an rf induced depolarizing resonance. This paper discusses a novel approach where the polarization reversal is achieved by trapping the beam…

As part of the spin physics program at Jefferson Laboratory (JLab), a M\o ller polarimeter was developed to measure the polarization of electron beam of energies 0.8 to 5.0 GeV. A unique signature for M\o ller scattering is obtained using a…

We developed a specific numerical fitting procedure, based on the least squares method, to calculate the parameters of the polarization ellipse by only using a single polarizer and a detection device for measuring the outgoing intensities.

We calculate the (parity-violating) spin rotation angle of a polarized neutron beam through hydrogen and deuterium targets, using pionless effective field theory up to next-to-leading order. Our result is part of a program to obtain the…

The dynamic enhancement of symmetry-breaking effects in neutron-nucleus resonances provides a sensitive testing ground for Time-Reversal Invariance Violation (TRIV). Exploiting this mechanism, the Neutron Optics Parity and Time Reversal…
