Calculating the polarization lifetime from the Thomas-Bargmann-Michel-Telegdi equation

It was observed at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider that the polarization of the stored beam decays by 0.17 to 3% per hour. This effect could not be simulated up to now since the simulation time for an exact calculation exceeded the computer capacity. To solve this problem the action of the whole...
