Helicity Structure

The standard helicity quartet is compose of 4 helicity states. The first set is the original helicity states pseudo-randomly set. The second half contains the complement helicity state to the original one.

The Qweak readout divides each helicity state into 4 time slices labeled block0, block1, block2, and block3.

Two PMTs are used on the end of each quartz main detector. The PMT's are called "neg" and "pos" depending on their location as shown in the figure above.
