Polarimetry and measurement of transverse polarization at LEP

A laser polarimeter has been installed in LEP to measure the transverse polarization of the electron beam. We recall the principles of operation of the polarimeter and describe its commissioning procedure. Account is given of the performance of the laser, the production and the control of the circul...

description A laser polarimeter has been installed in LEP to measure the transverse polarization of the electron beam. We recall the principles of operation of the polarimeter and describe its commissioning procedure. Account is given of the performance of the laser, the production and the control of the circular polarization of the photons and of the performance of the detector. Experimental results on the first attemps to detect transverse polarization in LEP are presented and discussed.
