Book excerpt: Polarized 3He target has been widely used in nuclear and particle experiments to study the neutron structure in the spin degree of freedom, as most of the 3He spin is carried by the unpaired neutron. Spin-Exchange Optical Pumping (SEOP) process is used in Jefferson Lab Hall A to polarize its 3He target. Through developments in recent years, both the performance and corresponding polarimetry of such a target were greatly improved. Several experiments recently carried out in Hall A benefited remarkably from this target for the record highest figure of merit.
