dc.descriptionThere has been much recent research into polarizing an antiproton beam, instigated by the recent proposal from the PAX (Polarized Antiproton eXperiment) project at GSI Darmstadt. It plans to polarize an antiproton beam by repeated interaction with a polarized internal target in a storage ring. The method of polarization buildup by spin filtering requires many of the beam particles to remain within the ring after scattering off the polarized internal target via electromagnetic and hadronic interactions. Sets of differential equations which describe the buildup of polarization by spin filtering in many different scenarios have recently been presented and solved. In this paper we add to this literature by investigating a scenario where unpolarized particles are input into the beam at a linearly increasing rate, i.e. the input rate is ramped up.
