Process of lepton pair production by polarized photon on nuclei can be used to measure the degree of linear polarization of high energy photon. The differential cross section and the analyzing power are calculated with taking into account higher powers of expansion on $Zα$. Pure Coulomb and screened potential are considered.
For high energy linearly polarized photon--proton scattering we have calculated the azimuthal and polar angle distributions in inclusive on recoil proton experimental setup. We have taken into account the production of lepton and pseudoscalar meson charged pairs. The typical values of cross sections are of order of hundreds of picobarn. The size of polarization effects are of order of several percents. The results are generalized for the case of electroproduction processes on the proton at rest and for high energy proton production process on resting proton.
Spatial distribution of intensity, degree and direction of linear polarization of tagged photon beam, which is obtained due to Compton backscattering of laser light on high-energy electron beam, are calculated. Effects of angular dispersion and spatial spread of electron beam are taken into account. Calculations have been carried out for the example of LEGS facility.
Polarization characteristics of the gamma beam obtained by the Compton back scattering of laser photons on high energy electrons are evaluated by Monte-Carlo simulations. It is assumed that outgoing photons are tagged; the energy dispersion of the tagging photons and emittance of the initial electrons are taken into account. Dependence of the final photon polarization parameters on measured photon energy is obtained. It is shown that polarization of final photons is decreasing with change for the worth of the tagging energy resolution. Calculations have been applied for the storage ring SIBERIA-2 at Kurchatov Institute. The obtained results indicate a reasonability for construction of gamma-polarimeters on existing and planned facilities for the on-line measurement of the final photon beam polarization.
