  • Building an Electron-Ion Collider at Jefferson Lab would capitalize on the lab’s existing Continuous Electron Beam Accelerator Facility and on the lab’s expertise in designing and building particle accelerators. The essential new elements of an EIC facility at Jefferson Lab would include an electron storage ring and an entirely new, modern ion acceleration and storage complex that would be constructed in a large-scale civil engineering project.

  • Members of the media are invited to join our distinguished guests for the ceremony dedicating the recently upgraded facility.

    What: The Department of Energy and the Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility will hold a dedication ceremony for the Jefferson Lab $338 million 12 GeV CEBAF Upgrade project, which tripled the original design energy of the laboratory’s Continuous Electron Beam Accelerator Facility.

    Who: The keynote will be delivered by the Honorable Paul M. Dabbar, Under Secretary for Science. Other notable dignitaries will also be in attendance.

  • The Electron-Ion Collider is considered to be essential to the United States’ ability to contribute to world-leading scientific research. Researchers hope such a machine can help answer fundamental questions about ordinary matter, revealing for the first time and in detail how matter’s smallest building blocks and nature’s universal forces combine to build our visible universe.

  • Jefferson Lab’s Continuous Electron Beam Accelerator Facility delivers beam to all four of its experimental areas simultaneously

  • Youngsters Tackle Computer Science Skills, Learn About Career Opportunities

    NEWPORT NEWS, VA – Fifty fifth graders from Carver Elementary School participated in computer coding activities and learned about computer science careers during their visit to Jefferson Lab on Dec. 12.

  • Research has shown that protons and neutrons that have briefly paired up in the nucleus have higher-average momentum, which allows a greater fraction of the protons than neutrons to have high momentum in relatively neutron-rich nuclei, such as carbon, aluminum, iron and lead. This result is contrary to long-accepted theories large nuclei and has implications for ultra-cold atomic gas systems and neutron stars.

  • NEWPORT NEWS, VA – In conjunction with the inaugural Virginia Science Festival being held across the Commonwealth Oct. 4-11, 2014, Jefferson Lab will hold two events.

    Learn About the Building Blocks of Matter on Oct. 7
