"Nucleon Tomography"
Latifa Elouadrhiri, Jefferson Lab
Abstract:
A fundamental challenge of modern nuclear physics is to understand the
structure of the constituents of nuclear matter, protons and neutrons.
The 12 GeV Upgrade of the Continuous Electron Beam Accelerator Facility
(CEBAF) at Jefferson Lab and the construction of state-of –the-art
detector systems make it a unique facility in the world to address this
challenge. Electron scattering is a superb experimental tool to study the
internal structure of nucleons at differing distance scales, as the
resolving power of the probe can be varied. The Generalized Parton
Distributions (GPDs) provide the theoretical framework to interpret the
experimental data. The CLAS12 detector being installed at Jefferson Lab
is scheduled for completion in the summer of 2017. Employing continuous
wave electron beams of up to 12 GeV energy will enable a collaboration of
users’ community from all around the world to perform precise exclusive
experiments in a large kinematical regime to effectively engage in nuclear
imaging, revealing hidden aspects of its internal structure, and providing
insight into quark confinement forces in the nucleon. I will review the
landscape of both theory and experiments, and describe the new equipment
with a focus on the approved science program for the CLAS12 detector, which
will provide a unique capability to study 3D nucleon imaging.
