This paper (Phys. Rev. C 91, 055205 (2015)) published on May 21 was in large part based on my PhD dissertation from UVa. It describes how we improved polarized He-3 target performance by about an order of magnitude over the course of a decade. This paper was highlighted by the Editor’s Suggestion of Physical Review C and was profiled in an MSU Today article today.
