For ’96 and ‘97/’98, error of SLC Compton polarimeter measurements ~0.5%, dominated by systematic uncertainties. [Abe et al., PRL 84 (2001) 5945]
Known depolarization in NDR and NARC: ~2% (NDR 0.8%; NARC 0.7% energy spread, 0.3% synchrotron radiation, 0.4% beam emittance).
Thus, during SLC, the Mott measurements (in lab) were consistently ~2% higher than Compton corrected for known depolarization effects. Some of the difference may be spin de-tuning in NARC.
