Uncertainty of the beam energy measurement in the e⁺e^- collision using Compton backscattering

The beam energy is measured in the e⁺e^- collision by using Compton backscattering. The uncertainty of this measurement process is studied by virtue of analytical formulas, and the special effects of variant energy spread and energy drift on the systematic uncertainty estimation are also studied with the Monte Carlo sampling technique. These quantitative conclusions are especially important for understanding the uncertainty of the beam energy measurement system. (author)
