  • Jefferson Lab has four experimental halls. Hall C is 150 feet in diameter and 60 feet tall.

    Hall C houses two large spectrometers, the High Momentum Spectrometer and the new Super High Momentum Spectrometer.  The hall also provides space for temporary installation of other detectors such as the Neutral Particle Spectrometer and the Large Acceptance Detector.

    The research equipment in Hall C is used to study form factors and 3-D structure of simple quark systems, and short range structure in nuclei.

  • Theory and experiment combine to provide the most precise empirical extraction of the proton’s tensor charge, a fundamental property of the proton.

  • Scientists have made a new measurement that represents a breakthrough in their understanding of the proton’s mass.

  • Happy Holidays!

    Dear Colleagues,

    As 2019 comes to a close, it is worth reflecting on all that was accomplished in the last year thanks to your hard work and dedication.

  • JLab Implementing MEDCON 5 Precautions Starting Tuesday, March 17 (msg.6)

     

    Posted on behalf of Lab Director, Stuart Henderson
     

    The growing number of COVID19 cases in our region, particularly James City County, requires more aggressive action to protect our employees, their families, our Users, visitors, and the community. At the recommendation of the Jefferson Lab Pandemic Advisory Team we are implementing MEDCON 5 effective today, Monday, March 16.

  • Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility is a U.S. Department of Energy Office of Science national laboratory. Jefferson Lab's unique and exciting mission is to expand our knowledge of the universe by studying the basic building blocks of matter within the nucleus: subatomic particles known as quarks and gluons.
