Introduction
Background
The hadron photoproduction of the ϕ, K, η, and π0 mesons is studied by using linearly
polarized photon beams with energies of E γ = 1.5 ∼ 2.9 GeV at SPring-8 (LEPS).
These hadron photoproduction experiments have been carried out with unpolarized
target.偏極標的があれば、、、
We plan to carry out hadron photoproduction experiments by using polarized photon
beams and the polarized target.
Objective
Development of the polarized Hydrogen-Deuteride (HD) target for doublepolarization Experiments at LEPS.
We plan an experiment with polarized HD targets to
investigate the ss content in the nucleon by measuring
double polarization asymmetries
in the gp -> fp (gn -> fn ) reaction
EMC (European Muon Collaboration) reported that the contribution of
the spin of the quark to that of the proton is very few.
SMC (Spin Muon Collabollation) () reported that strangeness quark may
be contained 10−20% in the nucleon.
HAPPEX Collaboration reported the limitation to the strangeness form factors,
and these is nearly zero.
Presence of the strange quark content in the nucleon is
not conclusive. New data using different reactions play an
important role.
γp→fp reaction
In the reaction of γp→fp , there are four main reactions as follows
Cross Section at Eg = 2.0 GeV
Strangeness quark content is assumed to be
Pomeron exchange 0%
Pomeron exchange
uud knockout
One pion exchange
ss knockout
One pion exchange
ss knockout
uud knockout
It is difficult to evaluate a cross section from ssbar knockout. Pomeron exchange is dominant

(Dashed), and 1% (Dot-dashed).

Beam target asymmetry CBT is very sensitive to the ss-bar content in the nucleon

（set up the experimental refrigerator for HD target）
HD is heteronuclear diatomic molecule consisted by hydrogen and deuteron
Polarized method
We use the statistical method by cooling down and keeping the HD target at 10
mK with 17 Tesla for a few months (Brute-force method).
Advantage and disadvantage
Advantage: Dilution factor is good. (the number of H’s / the number of nucleons)
HD = 1/3, NH3 = 3/17, C4H10O = 10/74
Disadvantage: The HD target needs thin aluminum wires (at most 20% in weight)
to improve the cooling power to solid HD.
Size of Target
Diameter is 25 mm. Length is 50 mm.
Relaxation time
Under the condition of the experiment
(T=300 mK and B=1 Tesla) ,
the relaxation time is possible to be longer
than several months .

Frozen polarization mechanism
The polarization of HD is produced by
the spin-flip with small concentration
of ortho-H2 (~0.01%) included in HD
at 17 Tesla & T=14 mK
Most of ortho-H2 has converted to
para-H2. Polarization degree of HD
is kept for about one year at 1 Tesla
& T=300 mK

Concentration of o-H2
Decrease with time.
Time constant is 6.5 days
Relaxation time
Increase with time. The length of relaxation time
depends on the concentration of o-H2
Polarization
The Polarization grows with time. Growing rate
depends on relaxation time.
When the relaxation time is very short, the
polarization reaches Thermal Equilibrium
Initial concentration of o-H2 is important for the polarization degree and
relaxation time of HD target.

The temperature of the HD cell might be higher than 14 mK.
The heat transfer is not so good between different material
because of the presence of Kapitza resistance at boundries.
The linearity between NMR signal height and polarization
Since the magnitude of the signal changes 1000 times, we discuss
whether NMR system is linear or not in dynamic range
Concentrations of ortho-H2 might be too small
In this case the relaxation time of H in HD was to be very long at
start time. Polarization did not grow.

Quadrupole mass separator was used for analysis of components in the HD gas.
HD gas are mass-separated according to the
mass/charge ratio (u/e).
But this system have a problem.
Fragmentation problem
When HD gas is ionized, H+ and D+ ions is produced by electron bombarded.
Fragmentation factor
D+/HD = 0.4%
H2+/HD ~0.001% <= We want to measure!!
New analyzer is required avoiding the problem for analysis of HD gas precisely
New gas analyzer
GC-QMS (Gas Chromatograph and Quadrupole Mass Spectrometer)
distiller
Components in the HD gas are separated by using the difference of retention time in
the column and the mass/charge ratio measured by the QMS.
The column is cooled down to about 110 K. ////to attain a reasonably long retention
time for the hydrogen and deuterium gases.

p-H2 , o-H2 , HD, and D2 components is separated by elapsed time in the GC completely.
The measurement is possible with 0.001% precision for the components.
p-H2 and o-H2 is separated.

 The new analysis system enabled us to observe p-H2 , o-H2 , HD, and D2
separately.
 Components in HD gas enable us to analyze with a high precision of 0.001%
 Distillation term is shorten from 34 days to less than 6 days
We can control the concentration of o-H2 and D2 when HD target is produced.
New HD distiller and new gas analyzer enable to us to optimize aging time.
(In my calculation, the aging time is able to shorten to ~2 weeks)

3rd production
HD gas for target was produced Distiller and analyzed.
Concentration of o-H2 in prepared HD gas for the target is 2x10-4%.
NMR signal obtained after pouring HD
gas at 500 mK.
Polarization calculated from Boltzmann
low is 0.2% at 500 mK
NMR signal obtained after 2 month of
aging time.
Polarization : 30%

*Preliminary
Conclusion : 2x10-4% is too low for production of HD target.
HD single crystal
HD target includes the aluminum wires of 20% in weight.
HD single crystal a hexagonal single crystal and have a good thermal
conductivity of HD target.
The thermal conductivity of normal HD target is < 0.1 W/Km
