Matt,
1-I have few comments on your talk. They are embedded in the attached
pdf file.
2-With regard to the target the comment below goes for both your
backup transparency and Dave's poster.
The generic drawing of the target slide is based on a target that
never passed 45% polarization.
The 3He polarized double chamber cell used to be filled with Helium
and Rubidium was mainly deposited in the upper chamber (pumping
chamber). The oven heats the upper chamber for getting Rubidium to a
vapor state and by controlling the temperature of the chamber we
controlled the number density of Rubidium atoms in the pumping
chamber. The temperature in the upper chamber was typically 180 degC
and the target chamber about 35 to 40deg C.
The new target uses in the upper chamber an "alloy" of Rubidium and
Potassium and it is double spin exchange from Rubidium to Potassium
and then from potassium to He3. It was shown that the double spin
exchange is faster than a single spin exchange between Rubidium and
He3. This target has higher performance because of the combination of
the comet narrow bandwidth lasers and the fast polarization rate that
even with wall depolarization the net polarization is high, above 50%.
It also requires an oven that run at higher temperatures 230 degC
The alkali don't get in the cell chamber because it's temperature is
below the vapor temperature usually they stick to the neck of the
transfer tube and in some cases they drip down the target chamber but
stick at the bottom and are not in the path of the beam. The beam
crosses He3 and N2 as a buffer gas that quenches radiative transition
in Rubidium.
