ACCELERATION IN THE RHIC ACCELERATOR COMPLEX

Absolute polarization measurements at different beam energies are very important for the understanding of the polarization evolution and polarization losses during acceleration and transport in the RHIC accelerator chain: Source-Linac-Booster-AGS-RHIC. In the RHIC complex there are two absolute proton polarimeters: the elastic proton-Carbon polarimeter at 200 MeV beam energy and theCNI H-jet polarimeter at 24-255 GeV in the RHIC ring. The polarization transport simulations show that depolarization occurs a the edge of the beam and that the polarization of the beam core at the center of the 2-dimensional beam intensity profile should be preserved during acceleration. Polarization profile measurements by the scanning p-Carbon CNI polarimeters in the AGS and RHIC provide experimental data that support these expectations. In addition, an estimate for the upper limit of depolarization at the edge of the beam distribution was deduced from the absolute polarization measurements at 200 MeV and at 100 and 255 GeV.

Polarization Profiles
• Polarization loss from intrinsic resonances: polarization lost at edge of beam → polarization profile.
• Impact of polarization profile on beam polarization at collisions:
For RH ≈ RV = R and small: P0 = Pjet (1+R)2 ;
Pcoll. = Pjet (1+ ½R)

Polarization profile R might be underestimated due to rate effects (AGS) and target deformation (largest effects at 255 GeV).
• Therefore P0 value can be larger.• Ideally for Yellow P0 should be the Source Polarization: 80 × 0.99 = 79%

Summary
• Upper limit on beam polarization in collisions was estimated, in assumption, that the polarization of the beam core at the center of the 2-dimensional beam intensity profile is preserved during acceleration.
• This gives a quite narrow range for polarization in collisions 55-60% (for presently achieved average beam polarization of about 55% at 255 GeV).
• The correction for polarization profile measured with p-Carbon CNI polarimeter is right in the middle of this range and the actual beam polarization in collisions is limited within the range:
Pjet=58%< PpC.coll~61%≤ Pexp.coll < 63%
