Strangeness in Hard Processes, Frascati JLab Upgrade to 12 GeV JLab Upgrade to 6 GeV Add new hall CHL-2 A major focus of hadron physics with electromagnetic probes is the determination of new multi-dimensional parton distribution functions in a large kinematics range. This requires experiments at high luminosity and at sufficiently high energy. For this the existing accelerator will be equipped with accelerating superconducting RF cavities with much higher gradients. The additional 5 cryo modules will provide the same energy boost as the 20 existing ones. In addition some of the lower gradient cryo modules will be refurbished Enhance equipment in existing halls 5/7/2018 Strangeness in Hard Processes, Frascati

CLAS12 – Solenoid and Torus Magnets Pions Kaons The Torus and Solenoid magnets provide bending power for tracking with sufficient momentum resolution to allow exclusive processes to be identified. At forward angles the Torus field provides large integral Bdl while the solenoid provides tracking at large angles over a limited radial distance. The B-field transverse to the particle trajectory is approximately matched to the average particle momentum. 5/7/2018 Strangeness in Hard Processes, Frascati

Strangeness in Hard Processes, Frascati Kaon identification CLAS12 Charged hadron identification currently relies on time-of-flight measurements and supports a strangeness program for which Kaon identification is additionally constrained, e.g. from exclusive kinematics. Detailed studies of TMDs for strange quark contributions requires much improved Kaon identification capabilities for momentum > 2GeV/c. A RICH detector with large momentum range and polar angle coverage would be a suitable candidate. 5/7/2018 Strangeness in Hard Processes, Frascati

Strangeness in Hard Processes, Frascati Color transparency CLAS12 Color Transparency is a stringent prediction of QCD: under some conditions, nuclear matter will allow the transmission of hadrons with reduced attenuation Unexpected in a hadronic picture of strongly interacting matter, but straightforward in quark gluon basis. Small effects observed at lower energy. Expect significant effects at higher energy. preliminary q2 CLAS12 projected eA→eρ0X Q2(GeV2) ρ0 electro-production is an ideal probe of CT as the deeply virtual photon directly couples to the ρ0 in a small size configuration. 5/7/2018 Strangeness in Hard Processes, Frascati
Neutron Magnetic Form Factor CLAS12 At 12 GeV extend knowledge of magnetic structure of neutron to much shorter distances. Needed for constraints of GPDs at large t. Does the neutron magnetic structure differ from the proton? For Q2 < 5 GeV2 GMn deviates by less than 10% from the dipole form which also describes GMp with similar accuracy and up to much higher Q2. CLAS12 measures GMn for all Q2≤14 GeV2 simultaneously. 5/7/2018 Strangeness in Hard Processes, Frascati
Neutron structure in spectator tagging F2n/F2p ratio by tagging almost unbound neutrons using detection of low momentum protons in radial TPC. e-D→e-psX n ps p e- >70MeV/c BONUS Detector Preliminary 5 Tesla mag. field One of the unresolved issues in neutron structure functions studies at high Bjorken x is the correction for the nuclear binding effect in deuteron. Different corrections have resulted in vastly different results. A model-independent way is to tag the neutron by measuring the spectator proton to very low momentum using, e.g. a gas target and a low density tracking detector. Protons with momentum down to 70 MeV/c (T=2.5MeV) must be detected. The corrections for the neutron momentum in deuteron is shown in this graph. The elastic peak and the resonance structure show up clearly. The corrected ratio F2n/F2p is shown with the red points. The ratio of d-quark to u-quark distribution functions is shown here. The maximum xB is limited by the beam energy of 5.2 GeV. However, the trend is to rule out the scalar diquark model. Future experiments at the 12GeV upgrade will extend this range up to 0.9. CLAS12 Experiment E12-06-113 will reach x=0.8. LOI-10-05, 10-08, 10-09 received PAC support to study EMC effect by detecting nuclear fragments at 12 GeV.

Impact of QCD analysis on ΔG(x) Precise measurement of Q2 dependence of spin structure function g1(x,Q2) gives access to gluon contributions ΔG(x) to the proton spin through QCD evolution equations. E. Leader, A Sidorov, D. Stamenov, PRD75:074027,2007 The next-to-leading order fit of LSS06 shows the significant impact of the JLab data on the polarized gluon density . At x>0.2 a factor 2 to 4 reduction in the polarized gluon density uncertainty is achieved. Additional improvement at small x is due to new COMPASS data on deuterium. The sensitivity comes from the last term which is due to gluon radiation. It requires a large lever arm in Q2, which is provided by the CLAS results. The absolute density in the LSS06 NLO analysis is shown on the right side. At large the JLab data prefer a positive polarized gluon density. Overall the polarized gluon density is much smaller than what is required to explain the short fall from the polarized quark densities, opening up possible strong contributions from orbital angular excitations. Experiment E12-06-109 will significantly constrain ΔG(x). 5/7/2018 Strangeness in Hard Processes, Frascati

Strangeness in Hard Processes, Frascati Access to GPDs - Handbag Mechanism GPDs depend on 3 variables, e.g. E(x, x, t). They probe the quark structure at the amplitude level. Deeply Virtual Compton Scattering (DVCS) x t x-x x+x hard vertices g x – longitudinal quark momentum fraction 2x – longitudinal momentum transfer xB 2-xB x = The basic process in accessing the proton structure through exclusive processes is the “handbag” mechanism. Here shown for the DVCS process. The important aspects is that we have hard scattering vertices here and here and the soft part is described by the GPDs. The upper and lower part factorize which allow us to probe GPDs in hard scattering processes with photons. There are 4 GPDs which depend on 3 kinematics quantities: the quark longitudinal momentum fraction x, the longitudinal momentum transfer to the quark xi and the 4-momentum transfer to the proton.

A path towards extracting of GPDs 2 + - - + + - = ξ ~ xB/(2-xB) k = t/4M2 LU ~ sin {F1H + ξ(F1+F2)H +kF2E}d ~ Polarized beam, unpolarized target: H(ξ,t) Kinematically suppressed Unpolarized beam, longitudinal target: UL ~ sin {F1H+ξ(F1+F2)(H +ξ/(1+ξ)E) -.. }d ~ Kinematically suppressed H(ξ,t) The most direct way of accessing GPDs is through polarization measurements. Using polarized electron beams we can measure the cross section difference for opposite electron helicities. The cross section difference depends on the 3 GPDs H, H-tilde, and E. The kinematical factors suppress the contributions of H-tilde and of E so that the beam spin asymmetry is dominated by GPD H. For longitudinally polarized target the asymmetry is dominated by H-tilde as H and E are kinematically suppressed at not too large xi giving access to H-tilde. With a transversely polarized target one has access to a combination of H and E. With these 3 measurements we are able to disentangle 3 GPDs H, E, H-tilde.

Transverse Momentum Distributions CLAS12 TMDs are complementary to GPDs in that they allow to construct 3-D images of the nucleon in momentum space TMDs are connected to orbital angular momentum (OAM) in the nucleon wave function – for a TMD to be non-zero OAM must be present. TMDs can be studied in experiments measuring azimuthal angular moments in SIDIS processes. Several proposals/LOIs to measure TMDs have been accepted/supported that require the further upgrade of CLAS12 with Kaon identification.
