Central PAX Physics Case:Central PAX Physics Case:Transversity distribution of the nucleon in Drell-Yan:
→ FAIR as successor of DIS physics– last leading-twist missing piece of the QCD description
of the partonic structure of the nucleon– observation of h1
q (x,Q2) of the proton for valence quarks (ATT in Drell-Yan >0.2)
– transversely polarized proton beam or target ( )– transversely polarized antiproton beam ( )

Polarized AntiprotonsIntense beam of polarized antiprotons was never produced:
•Conventional methods (ABS) not appliable
•Polarized antiprotons from antilambda decay• I < 1.5·105 s-1 (P ≈ 0.35)
•Antiproton scattering off liquid H2 target• I < 2·103 s-1 (P ≈ 0.2)
•Stern-Gerlach spin separation in a beam (never tested)
• 5/2006 (Th. Walcher et al.) polarized electron beamSee Talk by K. Aulenbacher (9A, Fr)
Spin filtering is the only succesfully tested technique

Two interpretations of FILTEX result
1994. Meyer and Horowitz: three distinct effects1. Selective removal through scattering beyond θacc=4.4 mrad (σR⊥=83 mb)2. Small angle scattering of target prot. into ring acceptance (σS⊥=52 mb)3. Spin-transfer from pol. el. of target atoms to stored prot. (σE⊥=-70 mb)
σ1= σR⊥+ σS⊥ + σE⊥ = 65 mb
2005. Milstein & Strakhovenko + Nikolaev & Pavlov: only one effect1. Selective removal through scattering beyond θacc=4.4 mrad (σR⊥=85.6 mb)No contribution from other two effects
σ1 = 85.6 mb
Observed polarization build-up: dP/dt = ± (1.24 ± 0.06) x 10-2 h-1
P(t)=tanh(t/τ1), 1/τ1=σ1Qdtf σ1 = 72.5 ± 5.8 mb
Spin filtering works! But how?

Spin Filtering: Present Status
Spin filtering works, but:
1. Controversial interpretations of FILTEX experiment• Further experimental tests necessary
• How does spin filtering work?• Which role do electrons play?
→ Tests with protons at COSY
2. No data to predict polarization from filtering with antiprotons→ Measurements with antiprotons at AD/CERN

Spin Filtering studies at COSY
Goal: • Understanding the spin filtering mechanism:• Disentangle electromagnetic and hadronic contributions to
the polarizing cross section
19
Frank Rathmann Towards Polarized Antiprotons at FAIR 19 of 30
Polarizing cross sections from the two models
… only hadronic (Budker-Jülich)
- electromagnetic + hadronic (Meyer-Horowitz)
TSR
A measurement of σeff to 10% precision requirespolarization measurement with ∆P/P = 10%.
20
Frank Rathmann Towards Polarized Antiprotons at FAIR 20 of 30
How to disentangle hadronic and electromagnetic contributions to σeff ?
Injection of different combinations of hyperfine states• Different electron and nuclear polarizations• Null experiments possible:
•Pure electron polarized target (Pz = 0), and•Pure nuclear polarized target (Pe=0)

AD Experiments require both transverse and longitudinal (weak) fields.
AD Experiments will be performed also with D target.
Strong fields can be applied only longitudinally (minimal beam interference)
- Snake necessary
Target polarimetry requires BRP for pure electron and D polarization.

• Low-beta section• Polarized target (former HERMES target)• Detector• Snake• Commissioning of AD setup

βx,ynew = 0.3 m -> increase in density with respect to ANKE: factor 30• Shorter buildup time, higher rates• Larger polarization buildup rate due to larger acceptance• Use of former HERMES target (more details in A. Nass’ 9A, Fr)

Detector concept• Will measure beam polarization by using the polarization observables:
•p-p elastic (COSY)•pbar-p elastic (AD)
• Good azimuthal resolution (up/down asymmetries)• Low energy recoil (<8 MeV)
•Silicon telescopes•Thin 5µm Teflon cell needed
• Angular resolution for the forward particle for p-pbar at AD• AD experiment will require an openable cell

Hans-Otto Meyer’s idea“If polarized electrons polarize an initially unpolarized beam, then,
unpolarized electrons should depolarize an initially polarized beam!”
Method 2: Depolarization experiments
Electrons in 4He storage cell target: • Large analyzing power• Large counting rates
• Distinguish electron effect fromnormal depolarization in COSY
• Prerequisites:•Large beam lifetime•Large polarization lifetime
