  • The Electron-Ion Collider (EIC) is a particle accelerator facility planned for construction at Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL) in partnership with the Jefferson Lab (JLab) to address the following key science questions:

  • Overview

    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:

  • Deuteron, unpolarized, proton/neutron tagged, inclusive scattering

  • 2023

  • The JAM collaboration involves theoretical physicists, experimental physicists, and computer scientists from the Jefferson Lab community using QCD to study the internal quark and gluon structure of hadrons. The people involved in recent and ongoing JAM analyses include:

  • Sensitive pre-clinical biomedical imaging is critical for conducting animal studies in search of cures for diseases in people and animals. Jefferson Lab has already drawn on its expertise in detector technology to design and build several small-animal imagers for biomedical research. These tools are already being used for basic research into diseases such as Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s and cystic fibrosis.

  • After years of design, construction and testing, Jefferson Lab is installing a state-of-the-art Gas Electron Multiplier (GEM) tracking detector in one of its experimental areas. The detector tracks charged particles, such as those emitted by cancer cells tagged with a radiopharmaceutical or radiation beams used to target cancers. The extreme precision and fast readout technologies developed for the GEM detectors are now being applied to new state-of-the-art systems for nuclear medicine.
