Breakup corrections to the He3 beam polarization measurements at the future BNL Electron Ion Collider

Requirements for hadron polarimetry at the future Electron-Ion Collider (EIC) include measurements of absolute He3(h) beam polarization with systematic uncertainties better than σPsyst/P1%. Due to the successful use, since 2005, of the polarized hydrogen jet target polarimeter (HJET) to measure proton beam polarization at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC), the HJET technique promises to be suitable for the He3 polarimetry at EIC. For that, however, one needs to know the ratio of the hp and ph analyzing powers. For elastic scattering, this ratio can be evaluated with sufficient accuracy if pp analyzing power is precisely known. In this paper, the deuteron beam data acquired at HJET in RHIC Run 16 was used to evaluate corrections to the measured helion beam polarization due to the He3 breakup. The breakup effect was found to be negligible if the ratio of the beam and target (jet) single spin asymmetries are concurrently measured to determine the He3 beam polarization.
