November 29 Briefs Excerpts: 

In the News: Detector to Create 3D Model of Proton 
The local Daily Press featured Jefferson Lab in a recent article on the same type of detectors built by the same team that recently announced a mysterious “void” within the Great Pyramid. The detectors, along with superconducting magnets and other state-of-the-art detection systems, will be used to help create a more precise 3D model of the proton.
