France and the French have been involved in this local area for a number of years. In 1781, the French Army, led by Compte de Rochambeau, helped the Continental Army of George Washington defeat the British in the Siege of/Battle of Yorktown. While my sentiments with respect to that event are mixed, I have no such equivocation with respect to Thursday’s event.

September 29, 201612 GeV Upgrade
One of the superconducting magnets built in France for the Hall C Super High Momentum Spectrometer (SHMS) is now crossing the North Atlantic by ship and is expected to arrive in Norfolk by the end of September. This "Q2" magnet will be delivered to Jefferson Lab, outfitted with survey marks, and placed on the SHMS carriage for connection to the cryogenic, power and controls systems. -

Publications Refresher Course Set for Sept. 23
Mark your calendars and R.S.V.P. to attend the next Publications Refresher Course to receive a demonstration of the Jefferson Lab Publications System and have all your questions about public access answered. The next course is Friday, Sept. 23, at 9 a.m. in CEBAF Center room F224-225. R.S.V.P. to kindrew@jlab.org by close of business on Thursday, Sept. 22. -

August 24, 201612 GeV Upgrade
Preparations are almost complete for a Physics Division Experimental Readiness Review (ERR) of the base experimental equipment in Hall C. This review will focus on the operation of all of the equipment in the hall, including those components provided by the 12 GeV Upgrade, although the superconducting magnets are the subject of separate, dedicated reviews. -
Most of the Montage articles I have posted have addressed a single subject. This is different; I have a number of subjects I will try to cover which characterize the current menu of activities at the Lab.
We ran CEBAF during May to provide data for the proton radius (PRAD) experiment, and indeed completed the experiment. During the summer period, we limit operations to benefit from the electricity charge structures provided by Dominion Power. It has become traditional to concentrate on remedial and maintenance work. A good example is the next step in the gradient maintenance program. The refurbishment of one of the cryomodules by the teams in the SRF Institute has been completed and the module tested. Today, this module has been installed in the CEBAF tunnel, and there is every expectation that it will contribute significantly to the gradient capability of the machine.
