In Run-13 the upgraded polarized proton source was used OPPIS (Optically Pumped Polarized Ion Source) H- ion source had been upgraded to a higher intensity and polarization. Up until Run-13 a ECR-type source was used for primary proton beam generation. The source was originally developed for DC operation and placed inside of the super conductive solenoid (SCS). A tenfold intensity increase was demonstrated in pulsed operation by using a high-brightness Fast Atomic Beam Source (FABS) instead of the ECR proton source. FABS was developed at Budker Institute of Nuclear Physics (BINP), Novosibirsk to improve the source parameters such as beam current density, angular divergence, and stability. G.Atoian

Polarization strongly depends on the power, frequency, and the line width of the pumping laser. After upgrade a laser system we: • adjust of power, frequency, and line width of pumping laser; • monitor and control frequency, and line width with new wave-meter. Control the laser parameters Before By quality of the probe-laser pulse Now By measured frequency and line width of pump-laser G.Atoian
We can create a time-chart of frequency and line width and store data for analyzing. Time-chart of frequency of the laser Time-chart of line width G.Atoian

For maximum polarization must be accurate selection of settings all correction coils. Any change in the magnetic field of coils, SCS or ionizer as well as their position requires a new settings. LCC fine scan LCC scan G.Atoian

Summary Polarization is an average about 2-3% higher than ECR-based source. It is expected that polarization can be further improved to 85%. Higher polarization is expected due to reduce depolarization factors: • Rb polarization spatial distribution; • reduce residual gas; • Sona-transition efficiency; • incomplete energy separation and • Incomplete hyperfine interaction breaking in the ionizer magnetic field.
