Abstract

A recently installed polarized electron source will allow internal target experiments to be performed with polarized electrons at the NIKHEF Internal Target Hall, lb measure the longitudinal component of the polarization vector of the stored electron beam, a Polarimeter based on spin-dependent Compton scattering has been developed and successfully commissioned
