Measurement of the e⁻ beam polarization and photon flux at the BGO-OD Experiment* — •Thomas Zimmermann — Physikalisches Institut, Universität Bonn

The BGO-OD experiment, presently under construction at the electron accelerator ELSA at Bonn university, is intended for the systematic investigation of the photo-production of mesons off the nucleon.

Polarized photon beams are routinely used. To determine the degree of circular polarization, the polarization of the e⁻ beam will be measured in-situ by a Møller polarimeter. The photon flux will be monitored simultaneously with data taking, using a flux monitor consisting of two parts: a total- and a partial-absorption detector.
