Description
The CLAS12 detector located in the Hall-B of the Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility has been designed to operate at the nominal luminosity of $10^{35} \text{cm}^{-2} \text{s}^{-1}$, assuming a unitary particle reconstruction efficiency. Improving the performance of CLAS12 in terms of luminosity times the reconstruction efficiency will significantly enhance the physics reach of experiments in Hall B, allowing not only to conclude the approved physics program in a timely schedule, but also to access physics processes still unexplored due to limited statistics.
The possible upgrades of the CLAS12 instrumentation for efficient operation at an increased luminosity up to a factor ten are discussed.
