Dear Collaborators,
As you may know, we will transition from the GEn-II experiment to A_LL experiment starting Oct 31st.
Regarding the A_LL experiment:
The observed cross sections of exclusive pion photoproduction reactions in the wide angle regime have been a puzzle for over ~70 years, since the early measurements conducted at SLAC. Calculations that use the hangbag approach that use only twist-2 contributions fall short by over two orders of magnitude. Recent calculations that include twist-3 contributions claim that they are not just important, but are dominant. To test the validity of the handbag mechanism in this wide angle regime, a test of the helicity correlations A_LL and K_LL is therefore timely and necessary to further our understanding of the interaction mechanism in this regime that is responsible for the observed cross sections.
Hence, a timely request: Please consider signing up for some shifts to help achieve this goal! Your help is greatly appreciated!
