abstract = {Like the ANKE experiment at COSY a polarized internal
storage-cell target in front of the LHCb detector is the aim
of the LHCSpin Projekt at CERN. This target will be an
openable T-shaped tube that will be fed with a beam of
polarized hydrogen atoms from an atomic beam source (ABS)
operating according to the Stern-Gerlach principle. One
critical detail of such a storage cell is the surface
coating that should minimize polarization losses due to wall
collisions and recombination of the atoms into less
polarized molecules. Due to the restrictions of the LHC
operations a carbon coating seems to be the only option, but
this has never been investigated for storage cells.At the
Institut für Kernphysik at Forschungszentrum Jülich, a
setup is in use dedicated to study polarization losses in
storage cells as a function of surface materials,
temperature, magnetic holding fields or recombination
processes. Therefore, this setup is a good tool to
investigate carbon coated storage cells for further use at
LHC.Additionally, due to a slight modification of the ABS
the influence of Lyman-α photons on the recombination
process of hydrogen on the surface can be investigated.In
this talk, the setup of the storage cell investigations will
be presented and the recombination process of hydrogen on a
carbon surface will be discussed. The latter is also of
interest for understanding the formation of molecular
hydrogen in interstellar clouds.},
