I will present a history of the US national lab system from the Manhattan project to today.
I will discuss Short Range Correlations (SRCs) in the Nucleus.
In my talk, I will give an overview of the experiments at Jefferson Lab's experiment hall B with the CLAS12 and ALERT detector which allows to measure low energy recoils from electron interactions with a He-4 target.
The detection of d, t and He-3 remnants from He-4 gives an opportunity to unique experiments for tagged measurements of the EMC effect, of DVCS on light nuclei and of...
Experiment E12-19-003, carried out in Jefferson Lab's Hall D in 2021, aimed to explore the predicted QCD phenomenon known as Color Transparency in photons, mesons, and baryons. The experiment used low atomic mass nuclei such as helium, deuterium, and carbon targets through photoproduction. In my discussion, I will present the preliminary cross-section ratio of the ρ0 meson between the targets...
The GlueX experiment has produced the world’s largest data sample for peripheral photoproduction of mesons with a goal to expand our understanding of the strong interaction and search for hybrid mesons. The data set was obtained at the Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility utilizing the GlueX detector and a tagged linearly polarized photon beam that peaks between 8 - 9 GeV incident on...
The installation of a new lead tungstate calorimeter (ECAL) insert in Hall D’s GlueX detector at Jefferson Lab (JLab) will allow for the improved reconstruction of η/η’ decay channels. The ECAL is necessary for the upcoming Jefferson Lab Eta Factory (JEF) experiment, which aims to study rare decays of eta mesons. The insert consists of 1596 lead tungstate scintillating crystals which have been...
