We have performed a novel comparison between electron-beam polarimeters based on M{\o}ller and Compton scattering. A sequence of electron-beam polarization measurements were performed at low beam currents ($<$ 5 $\mu$A) during the $Q_{\rm…

Since 2012, a BNL-MIT collaboration has worked to develop a polarized $^3$He ion source for the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) using the existing Electron Beam Ionization Source (EBIS). $^3$He atoms are polarized using optical…

A liquid helium target system was designed and built to perform a precision measurement of the parity-violating neutron spin rotation in helium due to the nucleon-nucleon weak interaction. The measurement employed a beam of low energy…

We report the variation of the spectral energy distribution (SED) of blazars as a function of source activity, based on available, simultaneous multi-wavelength (MWL) observations of BL Lac objects. We use a fully automatized \c{hi}2…

One loop electroweak radiative corrections to left-right parity violating M{\o}ller scattering ($e^-e^-\to e^-e^-$) asymmetries are presented. They reduce the standard model (tree level) prediction by 40$\pm 3$ \% where the main shift and…

Laser-electron beam collisions that aim to generate electron-positron pairs require laser intensities $I \gtrsim 10^{21} ~\textrm{W/cm}^2$, which can be obtained by focusing a 1-PW optical laser to a spot smaller than 10 $~\mu$m. Spatial…

This paper presents the first calculations of the parity-violating polarization asymmetry and forward-backward asymmetry of the $e^- e^+ \rightarrow \mu^+ \mu^- (\gamma)$ process at a center-of-mass energy of 10.58 GeV with up to one-loop…

The MIT X-ray Polarimetry Beamline is a facility that we developed for testing components for possible use in X-ray polarimetry. Over the past few years, we have demonstrated that the X-ray source can generate nearly 100% polarized X-rays…

The precise measurement of parity-violating asymmetries in parity-violating electron scattering experiments is a powerful tool for probing new physics beyond the Standard Model. Achieving the expected precision requires both experimental…

The CMB polarization is the Everest in the quest to characterize the earliest photons from the Universe. After a long list of ever-decreasing upper limits, a detection of polarization was made in 2002 by the DASI team at ell =~ 500. The…

The PREX-2 and CREX experiments in Hall A at Jefferson Lab are precision measurements of parity violating elastic electron scattering from complex nuclei. One requirement was that the incident electron beam polarization, typically…

This note summarizes the results of the "Workshop on Polarisation and Beam Energy Measurements at the ILC", held at DESY (Zeuthen) April 9-11 2008. The topics for the workshop included (i) physics requirements, (ii) polarised sources and…

The BABAR collaboration has demonstrated the first application of the new Tau Polarimetry technique. This polarimetry technique exploits the kinematic coupling of $\tau$ decay products to the spin states of the $\tau$ and initial state…

The first measurements of the beam-target-helicity-asymmetries $E$ and $G$ in the photoproduction of $\omega$-mesons off protons at the CBELSA/TAPS experiment are reported. $E$ ($G$) was measured using circularly (linearly) polarised…

After almost five decades of study of parity violation in hadronic systems, the determination of the seven weak meson-nucleon couplings is still incomplete. Whereas parity violation in nuclear systems is complicated by the intricacies of…

The Advanced Space-based Solar Observatory (ASO-S) mission aims to explore two most spectacular eruptions in the Sun: solar flares and coronal mass ejections (CMEs), and their magnetism. For the studies of CMEs, the payload Lyman-alpha…

The Lightweight Asymmetry and Magnetism Probe (LAMP) is a micro-satellite mission concept dedicated for astronomical X-ray polarimetry and is currently under early phase study. It consists of segmented paraboloidal multilayer mirrors with a…

Precise and absolute beam polarization measurements are critical for the RHIC spin physics program. Because all experimental spin-dependent results are normalized by beam polarization, the normalization uncertainty contributes directly to…

We present a preliminary direct measurement of the parity violating coupling of the Z boson to strange quarks, A_s, derived from a sample of approximately 300,000 hadronic decays of Z bosons produced with a polarized electron beam and…

The beam asymmetry, $\Sigma$, was measured at ELSA in the reaction $\vec \gamma p \to \eta p$ using linearly polarised tagged photon beams, produced by coherent bremsstrahlung off a diamond. The crystal was oriented to provide polarised…
