The high physics potential of experiments with stored polarized antiprotons led to the proposal of the PAX [1] experiment (Polarized Antiproton eXperiment) for the High Energy Storage Ring (HESR) of the new FAIR facility at GSI (Darmstadt/Germany). It is proposed to polarize a stored antiproton beam by means of spin filtering by a polarized hydrogen gas target. The feasibility of spin filtering with protons using a transversely polarized hydrogen gas target has been demonstrated in the FILTEX experiment [2] and recently confirmed at the COSY ring in Jülich. A spin filtering experiment using a longitudinally polarized hydrogen gas target is planned after the installation of a siberian snake in 2014. Further measurements including the investigation of pd-breakup reactions [3] and a test of the time reversal (TRIC) [4] are planned using the developed experimental setup. A proposal for a spin-filtering experiment with antiprotons at AD/CERN [5] has been submitted to the CERN SPS comitee to investigate the spin-dependence of the pbar-p and pbar-d interaction. This knowledge is necessary to properly design a dedicated Antiproton-Polarizer Ring. |
