Lyman-$\alpha$ (Ly$\alpha$) is a powerful astrophysical probe. Not only is it ubiquitous at high redshifts, it is also a resonant line, making Ly$\alpha$ photons scatter. This scattering process depends on the physical conditions of the gas…
The discrepancy between polarized and unpolarized measurements of the proton's electromagnetic form factors is striking, and suggests that two-photon exchange (TPE) may be playing a larger role in elastic electron-proton scattering than is…
We calculate the leading contribution to the left-right asymmetry in polarized M{\o}ller scattering from the superpartners in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM), using an effective lagrangian approach. We determine the maximum…
We present and discuss polarimetric observations of 182 targets drawn from an optically selected sample of 240 probable BL Lac candidates out of the SDSS compiled by Collinge et al. (2005). In contrast to most other BL Lac candidate samples…
A telescope polarization model for the SST [Swedish 1-m Solar Telescope] is developed and the parameters of this model are fitted to polarization measurements made with a 1-meter linear polarizer in front of the entrance window. In this…
To achieve the physics goals of future Linear Colliders, it is important that electron and positron beams are polarized. The positron source planned for the International Linear Collider (ILC) is based on a helical undulator system and can…
Measurement of the tau lepton polarization in \eett\ is an important electro-weak measurement at ILC and other future electron-positron colliders. In this paper we discuss several methods to extract polarimeter information for \eett\ events…
We show from general principles that there must be a center of mass energy, $\sqrt s_0$, where the polarization asymmetry $A=\Delta \sigma({\gamma e \to W \nu })/ \sigma({\gamma e \to W \nu })$ for circularly-polarized photon and electron…
Intense, quasi-monochromatic, polarized $\gamma$-ray beams produced by Compton scattering of laser photons against relativistic electrons are used for fundamental studies and applications. Following a series of photoneutron cross section…
Future linear colliders will require high levels of performance from their electron sources. A group at SLAC has recently tested a structure that substantially exceeds current collider polarized electron source pulse-profile requirements.
We present results from luminosity, energy and polarization studies at a future Linear Collider. We compare e+e- and e-e- modes of operation and consider both NLC and TESLA beam parameter specifications at a center-of-mass energy of 500…
We present a new preliminary measurement of the parity-violation parameter Ab using a self-calibrating vertex-charge technique. In the SLD experiment we observe hadronic decays of polarized Z bosons produced in collisions between…
The design, construction and operation of a Compton back-scattering laser polarimeter at the HERA storage ring at DESY are described. The device measures the longitudinal polarization of the electron beam between the spin rotators at the…
We present a new powerful liquid hydrogen target developed for the precise study of parity violating electron scattering on hydrogen and deuterium. This target has been designed to have minimal target density fluctuations under the heat…
We present a new technique, `Tau Polarimetry', for measuring the longitudinal beam polarization present in an $e^+e^-$ collider through the analysis of $e^+e^-\rightarrow\tau^+\tau^-$ events. By exploiting the sensitivity of $\tau$ decay…
The E and B Experiment (EBEX) was a long-duration balloon-borne cosmic microwave background polarimeter that flew over Antarctica in 2013. We describe the experiment's optical system, receiver, and polarimetric approach, and report on their…
Polarization leakage of foreground synchrotron emission is a critical issue in HI intensity mapping experiments. While the sought-after HI emission is unpolarized, polarized foregrounds such as Galactic and extragalactic synchrotron…
Polarised light from astronomical targets can yield a wealth of information about their source radiation mechanisms, and about the geometry of the scattered light regions. Optical observations, of both the linear and circular polarisation…
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…
We study the non-linear Breit-Wheeler process $\vec \gamma' + \vec L \to e^+ + e^-$ in the interaction of linearly polarized probe photons ($\vec \gamma'$) with a linearly polarized laser beam ($\vec L$). In particular, we consider the…
