Introduction
• E03-004 plans to measure SIDIS n↑(e,e asymmetry on a transversely polarized 3He target.
• We seek to parasitically measure the inclusive DIS n↑(e,e vertical single-spin asymmetry.
PkkAT
•This will require a change to the BigBite detector package and DAQ.•One day of dedicated beam time for:
• Detector tests and • Systematic studies

Theory• It was shown in the 60’s, by Christ and Lee,
that an inclusive DIS target single-spin asymmetry would be T-violating under these assumptions:
1. One photon exchange.2. No quark mass.3. Other particle exchanges are ignored.
Strong interactions can create T-odd effects in SIDIS, but they are still T-violating in inclusive DIS.
Non-strong interaction T-odd effects that are not T-violating.
exchange

Two-Photon Effects
• For the neutron the net asymmetry due to mass effects must be zero for symmetric u- and d-quark distributions.

Previous Measurement• There is only one previous measurement of the
vertical target single spin asymmetry by S. Rock et al. in 1970.
• Using a vertically polarized butanol target and a 18 GeV electron beam.
• The average for all DIS measurements gives the proton asymmetry is AT
p = ±%. • No new measurement has been published in 35
years.

Big Bite Spectrometer
E03-004 plans to use the standard BigBite electron detector package:
Scintillator trigger plane Three wire chambersLead glass calorimeter
Better particle ID neededfor SSA!
We purpose to add a new Cherenkov Detector
![Page 8: A Parasitic Measurement During E03-004 for Target Single-Spin Asymmetry in Inclusive DIS n (e,e Reaction on a Vertically Polarized 3 He Target Tim Holmstrom](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062417/5514dffd55034693478b56ec/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Aerogel CherenkovAn Aerogel (n=1.03) Cherenkov detector can be placed between wire chambers 2 and 3.
A tentative agreement has been reachedwith MIT-Bates and Arizona State to ship parts of the BLAST Aerogel Detector.
Only good for low energy pions
If analysis of the GeN data shows:center wire chamber is not needed by E03-004
Remove that chamber and build a gas cherenkov.
Good for all momentum pions

Hall A Lumis
• The HAPPEX experiments have built and installed luminosity monitors (Lumis) in the Hall A beam pipe.
• These detectors worked very well at 30 Hz for HAPPEX.

A systematic bias of only 5105

3He Polarized Target• E03-004 will use the new
potassium/ rubidium hybrid 3He target.
• These cells will be used for the first time in GeN, and preliminary studies suggest that PT>50%.
• The target will be flipped every 10~20 minutes.
Target densities will need to be monitored.

Backgrounds: Quasi-Elastic
• The modified Regge GPD model predicts a quasi-elastic signal spin asymmetry Ay=5103, with a 30% uncertainty.
• The Ay experiment E05-015 will test this model giving us a better correction.
For the highest x bin radaitive background is less then 1%.
For the lowest x bin quasi-elastic background of 10%.

Backgrounds: Pions
The p/e ratio:less then 10:1 for the two high x binsless then 100:1 for the lowest x.
Lead glass calorimeter rejection 100 to 1.
Aerogel Cherenkov rejection of 10 to 1 for lowest x Gas Cherenkov rejection of 10 to 1 for all x

SummaryWe intend to measure the targetsingle-spin asymmetry AT
n on the neutron.In a parasitic experiment to E03-004.
We ask for one day of dedicated beam time:
Checkout of the LumisCheckout of the Aerogel DetectorSpecial systematic measurements 2 hour delta run to get a clean in PID
A large asymmetry would be a signal for previously unseenchiral symmetry breaking beyond the leading twist QCD picture of DIS
Two order of magnitude improvement
First neutron measurement
![Page 22: A Parasitic Measurement During E03-004 for Target Single-Spin Asymmetry in Inclusive DIS n (e,e Reaction on a Vertically Polarized 3 He Target Tim Holmstrom](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062417/5514dffd55034693478b56ec/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Overall Systematic Cancellation
• Half of the E03-004 beam time will be spent with target spin left and right of the beamline. Since:
• A full analysis will be done of this data, which will give us a clean measure of our systematic bias.
• The quad run structure of target polarization, the random sequence of orruns will also to better cancel slow drifts in the spectrometer or beam.
• Periodic special runs will be done to understand the behavior of the Lumi and detectors such as:– Target density runs– Beam position off runs– Linearity studies.

Target Polarization Differences
• Polarization differences do not cause asymmetries they only change the size of the asymmetry.
• NMR and EPR will be used to measure the polarization to a relative 4%.
