Absolute calibration of the in-beam proton polarimeter at IUCF

Description

This contribution covers the absolute calibration to better than 1% of the in-beam proton polarimeters at IUCF. The polarimeters observe p+d elastic scattering from thin CD2 targets at θlab(d)=42.6 deg. The calibration standard was double scattering using a 12C first target and the focal plane polarimeter of the K600 magnetic spectrometer. This procedure gave the beam polarization and the analyzing powers from both targets. Systematic errors are discussed
