Notes:
Studies using a compact retarding-potential Mott polarimeter have revealed an unanticipated source of potential systematic error that can introduce significant error in the measured polarizations. The origin of this is discussed together with a simple procedure that can be used to test for its presence. © 1999 American Institute of Physics.
