Description
The physics program for Hall B at Jefferson Lab includes multiple, high-impact experiments scattering electrons from transversely polarized protons. These experiments will measure, for example, the Transverse Momentum Distributions and the Generalized Parton Distribution for protons, using, respectively, semi-inclusive deep inelastic scattering and deeply virtual Compton scattering. In this talk I will discuss the technical challenges to implementing a polarized solid-state target in the Hall B experimental environment, examine potential solutions, and describe the current status of the target design.
