Hall C Compton Electron Detector
Diamond microstrips used to detect scattered electrons
 Radiation hard
 Four 21mm x 21mm planes each with 96 horizontal 200 μm wide micro-strips.
 Rough-tracking based/coincidence trigger suppresses backgrounds
(D. Dutta Missipi State University)
Compton Electron Detector Measurements
Polarization analysis:
 Yield for each electron helicity state
measured in each strip
 Background yields measured by
“turning off” (unlocking) the laser
 Asymmetry constructed in each strip
Strip number corresponds to
scattered electron energy
 Endpoint and zero-crossing of
asymmetry provide kinematic
scale
 2-parameter fit to beam
polarization and Compton
endpoint

Systematic uncertainties still under investigation, but final precision expected
to be better than 1%
 DA- related systematics likely the most significant remaining issue to study

signal
• signal to noise ratio improves at high energy for electron detector
•Background is worse for photon detector
•Need to pay attention to apertures which can generate background from halo
•Laser choice depends on background contribution : need more simulation

Conclusion
• Compton polarimetry at 1% level achieved at
Jefferson Laboratory and aiming at 0.5 % for
12 GeV parity program : will benefit EIC
• Jefferson Lab ideal ground for Compton
testing for EIC since Compton is non invasive
– Photon detector testing straight forward
– Electron detector testing doable with planning
because of vacuum. Looking into Roman pot
option for ease of detector swapping
