Following the installation of two more pairs of spin rotators in the course of the HERA Luminosity Upgrade, longitudinal positron spin polarisation has now been generated simultaneously at all three positron(electron) interaction points in HERA at the routine energy of 27.5 GeV. The maximum attained so far is 54 percent. The theoretical maximum for this configuration and in the presence of realistic errors is 57.0 percent. This is the first time in the history of high energy electron storage ring physics that the naturally occurring vertical polarisation has been, with the aid of spin rotators, converted to longitudinal polarisation at three interaction points simultaneously. We describe the measures needed to attain polarisation in light of the HERA Upgrade and the resulting recent performance.

The electron-proton collider HERA at the DESY laboratory in Hamburg has been in operation since 1991. After the luminosity upgrade of HERA in 2001 the control of the horizontal and vertical dispersion function of the positron beam became more important than before. Deviations from the design dispersion in the horizontal plane can change the emittance of the electron beam significantly thus leading to a reduction of the luminosity. For optimizing the polarization of the electron beam the reduction of vertical orbit and dispersion deviations is important. In this paper the combined dispersion and orbit correction in HERA is described and first results are reported.
