Abstract.

One of the main goals of the "Delta-Sigma-experiment" project is measurement of the energy behaviour of spin-dependent NN observables A00kk(np), A00nn(np) and Rdp in the GeV region of the neutron beam. These observables are determined by measurement of proton yields from the np > pn charge-exchange reaction at 0. using a magnetic spectrometer.

Measurements of the magnetic field map of the spectrometer magnet providing high accuracy in determining the proton momentum were carried out.

The "Delta-Sigma" set-up is placed at building 205 of the LHEP, JINR. The spectrometer magnet 2-SP-94-1V has the external sizes 2.95 x 2.12 x 1.62 m and aperture 0.30 x 0.13 m.

A three-component Hall probe was used. The measurement volume is 0.34 x 0.07 x 2.18 m. A description of the measuring equipment, method and results

is presented. The results are used for analysis of the physical data.

CONCLUSIONS

• Measurements of the magnetic field of the analyzing magnet 2-SP-94-1V of the Delta-Sigma setup in the spatial volume with dimensions 0.34 × 0.07 × 2.18 m were performed. A three-dimensional map of the distribution of all components of the magnetic field vector in this volume was obtained. The plots of characteristic distributions of field components on a level of 0.75, 1.00, 1.3, and 1.5 T were constructed.

• The measuring equipment and measurement procedure were described.

• The measurements were performed with an error of ΔB/B ≤ 0.5% (≤70 Gs on a level of 1.5 T at the center of the magnet) for the field region near the edges of the poles and ΔB/B ≤ 0.1% (10 Gs on a level of 1.5 T at the center of the magnet) for the remaining measurement region.

• These results will be used to process the physical data obtained in the seanses of experiment.
