Hall C summer meeting:
Physics opportunities in Hall C at 12 GeV
August 4&5, 2008.
Dear colleagues,
we are pleased to share with you the program of the upcoming Hall C
summer meeting. We again invite all of you to join us at JLab. Please
note that it is not yet to late to contact us to contribute a
presentation about your new idea.
This year, the Hall C summer meeting will focus on the physics
opportunities in Hall C at 12 GeV. This two-day meeting will allow us
to review the already proposed 12 GeV experiments and to explore ideas
for new experiments. This meeting will give us, to a certain degree,
the opportunity to discuss new 12 GeV experiments in Hall C despite the
absence of the PAC meeting this summer. The meeting will especially
focus on the following physics topics: QCD in nuclei, SIDIS and
exclusive processes, and Large x physics. The final afternoon of the
meeting will be devoted to an update on the apparatus upgrade. Speakers
and topics (so far) are listed below. Finally, the establishment of a
formal SHMS collaboration will be discussed, you should contact G. Huber
with your inputs on the subject.
We look forward to meeting with you this summer.
Julie Roche,
for the Hall C steering committee (A. Ahmidouch, H. Gao, H. Mkrtchyan
and J. Roche) ,and A. Bruell.
