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.
The Chief Operating Officer is responsible for the business functions of Jefferson Lab.
These functions include procurement, facilities management resources and services including civil construction, security, property management, legal counsel, and Human Resources.
The Laboratory Budget and Program Support Office is responsible for lab-wide and division budget development, tracking, and providing budget forecasts. The Office also submits the Biennial Budget to the State of Virginia and the Annual Budget to the Department of Energy.
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.
PA's primary responsibility is to prove to JSA and the Government that the Lab is meeting contractual obligations, whether H.50 elements or otherwise. Secondary responsibilities include performance improvement.
