Analysis of zero degree calorimeter shower maximum detector data for polarimetry at STAR

The Zero Degree Calorimeter at STAR was used to calculate an asymmetry from small-angle scattering of neutral particles from proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 500 GeV. An energy-centroid method was used to define hit positions of the neutral particles for each Shower Maximum Det...
