Sebastian Kuhn is a past chair of the Jefferson Lab Users Organization (JLUO) and current professor and eminent scholar at Old Dominion University. When he is not running an experiment in Hall B, Kuhn splits his time between his office, the university’s lecture hall, and his lab.
The Spectator Tagging Project develops the capabilities for high-energy electron scattering experiments with polarized light ions (deuteron 2H, 3He) and detection of spectator nucleons (protons, neutrons) at a future Electron-Ion Collider (EIC). Such experiments address basic questions of nuclear and strong interaction physics:
Event generators and analysis tools for electron-deuteron collisions with spectator nucleon tagging are being developed for process simulations at EIC. The materials are presently organized in the following categories:
May built a career in physics focused on health and safety
When Bob May was a student at Virginia Tech in the 1970’s, the school was in the early stages of developing a curriculum that would include environment, safety and health aspects of ionizing radiation for science majors. Now, as the ES&H deputy director at Jefferson Lab, May can look to a decades-long history of involvement and leadership in the field of health physics that began when he was a student at Tech helping to pilot the first courses in his field.
