  1. Polarized 3He ion source / Polarized 6Li ion source Feasibility Check / How to test • What should be checked experimentally and with simulation (if possible) • Depolarization in the ionizer : inject polarized 3He gas supplied by (1) Polarized Target at RCNP or (2) LKB, Paris • Ionization efficiency : inject 4He gas / detect 2+ ions • Detailed study of ionization mechanism Feasibility check experiment ECR ionizer : Ionization ~ complicated multi-step Polarized 3He atoms Polarized 3He2+ ion Polarimeter ( Polarization: Pi, Intensity: Ii ) ( Polarization: Pf, Intensity: If ) NMR • Delivered from Mainz to Sheffield in 2001 • magnetized spin box • Housing a glass vessel • Relaxation time ~ 50 hours (reproducibly ?) Theoretical / Simulation evaluation

  3. ECR Plasma Polarized 3He atoms Polarized 3He++ Ions Ionization = Multi-step Process e 1+ e 2+ 3He2+ e e Depolarization Mechanism Magnetic Field :B Ion confinement time : tconf Micro Wave 10 msec at 10 GHz (ANL) • Ionization process / Electron Capture and FI/HFI • 3He → 3He+ + e- : depolarization with HFI • 3He+ → 3He++ + e- : no depolarization • 3He++ + e- → 3He+ : depolarization with HFI • 3He++ + e- → 3He+* → 3He+ + hν : depolarization due to HF (LS coupling) • Spin Flip due to Electron Spin Resonance (ESR) and HFI • 3He+ + μ wave → ESR transition ~ electron spin flip ~ HFI : only ECR resonance zone • Others Electron Cyclotron Resonance : Electron Spin Resonance :

  4. HIPIS High vacuum ~ 5*10-6 torr Low vacuum ~ 2*10-5 torr Results on depolarization (1) : full effects Polarized 3He atoms ~ polarization : 50 % • Includes depolarization due to : • Ionization / capture process • Spin flip with ESR and HFI • Occurred any place in ECR plasma • Can be seen • High ECR frequency • ~ confinement time ~ long • ~ ionization process : many times • Low vacuum • ~ electron capture • ~ low polarization • Others Polarization ECR frequency (GHz)

  5. Micro Wave Mirror Coil Sextupole magnet electron Plasma Sextupole magnet B(Z) Cyclotron Resonance 875 Gauss 0 Z (mm) 700 What should be considered carefully • Spin flip due to ESR • ESR ~ only at ECR resonance field region ~ at B=B0=mwECR/e • RF magnetic field : B1 due to micro wave ~ randomly oriented • B1max = (2u0s/c)1/2 : s~ pointing vector for microwave RF power • B1 ~ very small • One Larmor precession of the electron in B1 : • (γJB1)-1 ~ μ sec • Time to pass Resonance zone (10 um / 105 cm/s ~ 1 ns) • Too short to flip the spin of electron • Can be neglected • 2. Confinement time ~ Depolarization in Ionization Process • 3. Polarized He gas transfer from ECR Loss Cone ~ confinement time • 4. Others

  6. Results on depolarization (2) Polarized 3He atoms ~ polarization : 50 % Remove ESR effects Include ionization process Recover polarization thanks to ESR effects neglect High ECR frequency ~ long confinement time ~ dominant process = ionization Polarization High vacuum Low vacuum ECR frequency (GHz)

  7. Results on depolarization (3) Polarized 3He atoms ~ polarization : 50 % • Comparison • Confinement time ~ 1 msec : blue • Confinement time ~ 10 msec : red • Without ESR effects • High vacuum • Possible to realize high polarization • with reduction of confinement time • by the adjustment of mirror ratio of • ECR ionizer … Polarization High vacuum Low vacuum ECR frequency (GHz)

  9. What should be done Next • Understand the Depolarization mechanism • Consider / evaluate each depolarization process carefully • Polarization estimation obtained by existing ECR (HIPIS) • Idea to Overcome the depolarization • (1) Straightforward ~ high polarization 3He atom + short confinement time = high polarization + low intensity • (2) Nice Idea ….. ~ should be considered … • Preparation to measure the depolarization / feasibility test
