Abstract :
The Σ-asymmetry of the reaction γ→+12C→8Be+4He→3α, through 8Be in the ground state is shown to be unity. We present an experimental setup, based on an arrangement of silicon detectors associated with a photon tagging system, which is able to extract the 8Be ground state events from the total reaction yield. The use of such a setup as an absolute gauge for the degree of linear polarization of a photon beam was studied by Monte Carlo simulation.
