Precision e- beam polarimetry at an e+ e- B factory using tau-pair events
PHYSICAL REVIEW D(2023)
摘要
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(-) -> tau(+)tau(-) events. By exploiting the sensitivity of tau decay kinematics to the longitudinal polarization of the beams, we demonstrate that the longitudinal polarization can be measured with a 3 per mil systematic uncertainty at the interaction point using a technique that is independent of spin and beam transport modeling. Using 424.2 +/- 1.8 fb(-1) of BABAR data at root s = 10.58 GeV, the average longitudinal polarization of the PEP-II e(+)e(-) collider has been measured to be < P > = 0.0035 +/- 0.0024(stat) +/- 0.0029(sys). The systematic uncertainty studies are described in detail, which can serve as a guide for future applications of tau polarimetry. A proposed e(-) beam longitudinal polarization upgrade to the SuperKEKB e(+)e(-) collider would benefit from this technique.
