Took data @ Fill#10228
• 56*56 bunch collision
• Polarization @ CNI monitor : 20-30%
• Sample selection– Collected by BBCLL1&(ZDCN|S)
–Measured energy @ ZDC > 40 GeV.
– SMD hit at least 2 columns to determine the position.
Cut parameters are very preliminary 2

Local pol. scalers
• We can measure spin condition bunch-by-bunch
• We can measure it online.– So far we took LP trigger with 200 Hz at
physics run, and analyze it after run.
New!
SMD scintillators for x (7 scnti.)

SMD scintillators for y (8 scinti.)
Hit patterns are sent by fibers
Make hit pattern by TDC in FEM(with high threshold) ZDC
LL1
Make scaler in ZDC LL1 bord4*2*120 channels 20 bits in each!
Local pol. scaler is developing by : Cheng-Yi Chi, Ed Desmond, Yuji Goto, John Haggerty, John Lajoie and Manabu Togawa

Scaler counts
- 10 mins data
- SMD threshold has no optimization. Just apply high threshold for this data.
- Small BG can be confirmed by unfilled bunch

LP scaler can see asymmetry too!
Significant asymmetry in LR only and we got it bunch-by-bunch! This is just 10 minutes data. We need to check stability.

ZDC energy distribution with high threshold cut for SMD (in ZDCN|S sample @ RUN5 data)
• SMD threshold corresponds to 20 MIP– With high SMD cut can be help to select neutron sample.
• BG1 : photon will stop at 1st module; not hit SMD.• BG2 : proton event is only distributed low energy region. 11
