Nuclear & Particle Physics
Group |
| |
|
|
|
The NSU Nuclear & Particle Physics (NPP)
group performs experimental research on the nature of
Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) at intermediate energies. The
group is involved in several experiments at the nearby
Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility (JLab),
Newport News, VA. |

| Meson Spectroscopy
at CLAS |
|
Welcome to Experiment
[E99-005],[E01-017] at Hall B of Jlab
Meson Spectroscopy in Few-body Decays. We study
exotic hybrid meson and strangeonia in the 1 to 2
GeV mass range. |

| Electroproduction
at Very Small Q2 |
|
| Electroproduction at very small
values of Q2 using unpolarized electrons is
equivalent to photoproduction using partially
linearly polarized photons. We particiate in the
design of a Forward Electron Tagger for CLAS. |

| The Structure of the Nucleon GEp |
| |
| We study the ratio of the electric and magnetic form factors
of the proton by measuring the transverse and longitudinal
components of the polarization of the recoiling proton.
Experiments have been performed at Hall A and coming in the near
future in Hall C at JLab. |

| PRIMEX (PRImakoff
EXperiment) |
| |
| The Primakoff Experiment is to perform a precise measurement
of the neutral pion lifetime using the small angle coherent
photoproduction of the pi-zero in the Coulomb field of a
nucleus, i.e. the Primakoff effect.
The pi0 to gamma-gamma decay
proceeds primarily via the chiral anomaly and represents one of
the most definitive tests of low-energy QCD. |
