Beam energy measurement at linear colliders using spin precession
Linear collider designs foresee some bends of about 5–10 mrad. The spin precession angle of 1 TeV electrons on a 10 mrad bend is 23.2 rad and it changes proportional to the energy. Measurement of the spin direction using Compton scattering of laser light on electrons before and after the bend allows...
