The Polarization of He3

POSTER

Abstract

The GEn-II experiment was conducted in Hall A of Thomas Jefferson Lab in Newport News, VA. The experiment is aimed at extracting the neutron electric form factor by scattering polarized e- beam on a polarized He3 target which serves as an effective neutron target. These form factor measurements encode the charge and magnetization information which are fundamental and essential for our understanding of nucleon structure. I supported the experiment by taking a number of shifts as the target operator. A brief description of the target and the target performance will be presented in this poster.
