Description
Ever since the discovery of spin, one of the fundamental properties of elementary particles, way back
in the 1920s, polarized beams have played significant roles in scientific research and technology
developments ranging from understanding fundamental properties of matter to medical applications
like NMR. Recent developments of polarized protons at high energies enabled research in unveiling the
deep secret of the proton's spin structure. This presentation gives a brief overview of the status of
polarized beams in scientific research as well as its applications in future energy and precision
frontiers.
