Abstract

Beam polarimetry is a vital aspect of accelerator-based parity violation (PV) experiments. So far, Compton backscattering polarimetry is the only method capable of measuring at the nominal beam conditions of the experiment. However, due to the low luminosity achievable with commercial lasers, it is slow compared to other methods using solid-state targets. This article reviews the principles of Compton polarimetry, gives an overview of the methods employed to overcome this disadvantage, and presents recent developements aimed at reaching the demanding precision goals (< 1%) of the next generation of PV experiments.
