Dear GlueX and Hall D Collaborators,
<div><br>
<div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre;"></span>I write to invite you to sign on to a Hall D proposal that I and others are preparing for this year's PAC. This is a resubmission of last year's C2-approved PR12-23-009, on to which many of
you signed. The title is "Nuclear Charm Production and Short Range Correlations." You can find a link to our latest proposal draft here:</div>

</div>
<div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre;"></span>In this experiment, we plan to study, among several reactions, J/Psi production from protons bound in Helium-4. We are excited about this because we already see a clear J/Psi signal in the data
from our 2021 Short-Range Correlations Experiment (E12-19-003), and with a longer run we'd be able to learn a lot more. However if you don't find charm physics charming, the data will be useful for studying several other nuclear structure topics, particularly
in the area of short-range nucleon correlations. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre;"></span>If you find this interesting and worth pursuing, I would be grateful if you'd add your name to our proposal. You can opt-in here: <a href="https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdJMin7fIVkP4RSALKH3AmNQFmXiymS94s2I4Rw8bBoQS1VTA/viewform">https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdJMin7fIVkP4RSALKH3AmNQFmXiymS94s2I4Rw8bBoQS1VTA/viewform</a></div>

</div>
<div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre;"></span>We also welcome your feedback, which you can send to me and to Jackson Pybus (cc'ed). Please accept our humble apologies if we aren't able to address every comment we receive. </div>
<div><br>

<div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre;"></span>Thanks, and best regards,</div>
