This workshop aims at producing an optimized photon source concept with 
potential increase of scientific output at Jefferson Lab, and at 
refining thescience for hadron physics experiments benefitting from such 
a high-intensity photon source. The workshop is dedicated to bringing 
together the communities directly using such sources for 
photo-production experiments, or for conversion into K_L beams. The 
combination of high precision calorimetry and high intensity photon 
sources can provide greatly enhanced scientific benefit to(deep) 
exclusive processes like wide-angle (WACS) and time like (TCS) Compton 
scattering. Potential prospects of such a high-intensity source with 
modern polarized targets will also be discussed. The availability of K_L 
beams would open new avenues for hadron spectroscopy, for example for 
the investigations of “missing” hyperon resonances, with potential 
impact on QCD thermodynamics and on freeze-out both in heavy ion 
collisions and the early universe. The workshop will aid in addressing 
PAC43 and PAC44 comments on recent proposals and letters of intent 
related to photo-production topics and K_L beams. This two-day workshop 
will take place right after the APS Topical Group on Hadronic Physics 
meeting in Washington DC.
