  1. Qweak Overview and Target Status SilviuCovrig Hall C for the Qweak Collaboration Hall C Users Meeting January 23, 2010

  2. gU(1) W gSU(2) Why Measure Qweak(p) Qw(p) is a fundamental property of the proton, never before measured Being suppressed in the SM a 4% measurement may provide a window into parity violating physics at the TeV energy scale, complementing colliders It is a standalone precision determination of the Weinberg angle at low Q2 For a useful check of the running of sin2qw it’s relative uncertainty has to be <1% Hall C Users Meeting, January 23, 2010

  9. Qweak Detectors • Main Detectors • All 8 bars assembled in their light tight boxes • Remaining parts (exoskeleton & support frames) are built • 1st bars ready to install late Feb • Tracking System Region I = GEMs Region II = HDC Region III = VDC Both built 4+1 built 4 built Hall C Users Meeting, January 23, 2010

  10. New Hall-C Compton Polarimeter • Compton Polarimeter can run all the time • Photon and electron coincidences greatly reduce systematic uncertainties due to backgrounds. • < 1% precision is possible by cross-calibrating with existing Møller polarimeter. • Hall C Møller <1% precision, but needs dedicated low current runs Hall C Users Meeting, January 23, 2010

  11.

  16. Qweak Target Safety Hydrogen concentration in normal air 4 < cV <74 % : deflagration 18< cV < 54 % : detonation Sub-sonic waves Shock Waves 4 kg of LH2 in 2 metal boundaries Safety incidents: • Relief (Sudden Loss of Vacuum): 105g/s Δp = 1 atm (ø pipe>2”) • Vent (cryo-loop breaks), with fluent: 210 g/s Δp < 1 atm (ø pipe>4”) • Release: hydrogen escapes into Hall C • ODH: none • Flammability: possible (556 MJ from burning 4 kg of hydrogen) 16 Hall C Users Meeting, January 23, 2010
