H. Sato et al., POLARIZED DEUTERON BEAM ACCELERATION AT THE KEK-PS, Nuclear instruments & methods in physics research. Section A, Accelerators, spectrometers, detectors and associated equipment, 385(3), 1997, pp. 391-397
Polarized deuteron acceleration tests were performed at the KEK-PS. Th
ere is one weak intrinsic resonance at 8 GeV. The polarization was mea
sured by an external polarimeter at 2 GeV following two patterns. The
beam was extracted after deceleration to 2 GeV from 10.2 GeV in patter
n 1 and just after acceleration up to 2 GeV in pattern 2. The polariza
tion was almost the same in the two patterns, meaning that a polarized
deuteron beam has been successfully accelerated up to 10.2 GeV at the
KEK-PS.
