Summary • RHIC Beam Polarization was measured by taking asymmetry of pC elastic scattering. • Absolute calibration was done using Pbeam determined by elastic pp scattering data(Run4). • ANpC was measured for extended t range (Up to t>0.1 (GeV/c)2 )to explore t-evolution of hadronic spin-flip amplitude.
