Abstract :
The TRIUMF OPPIS (optically pumped polarized ion source) provides high quality polarized H- ion beam for studies of hadronic structure via the parity-violating weak interaction. High-current polarized H- ion source development is now underway at TRIUMF for the new generation of polarization facilities at RHIC and HERA. The required 2×1032/s cm2 luminosity in RHIC can be obtained with a 0.5 mA injected H- ion beam intensity. Such an intensity was already produced in DC operation of the TRIUMF OPPIS, and a similar KEK OPPIS is being upgraded at TRIUMF for future installation at RHIC
