Research at Jefferson Lab – K. A. Aniol, M.B. Epstein, D.J. Margaziotis What ? 1)Investigate the structure of nucleons and nuclei. 2)Determine at what distance the quark structure of nucleons becomes important in nuclear structure. Where? Jefferson National Accelerator Lab, Newport News, Virginia University of Mainz MaMi accelerator, Mainz, Germany How? Using electrons of 0.6 GeV to 6 GeV energy.

What probes are available to investigate matter? 1)Gravitational Force - Use any object with mass. 2)Electromagnetic Force – Use particles such as electrons, muons or photons. 3)Strong Nuclear Force – Use hadrons, like protons, neutrons, pions, etc. 4)Weak Nuclear Force – Use neutrinos or electrons. Why do we use the electromagnetic probe to investigate nuclei? 1)The electromagnetic force is known with extraordinary precision. 2)The electromagnetic force is of moderate strength.

What benefits do students have working with us? 1)Exposure to state of the art nuclear physics data. 2)Learn how to do sophisticated data analysis using internationally recognized computer programs and the writing of software for data analysis. 3)Learn and use Monte Carlo techniques for the simulation of complex experimental setups. 4)Chance to spend time at JLab during summers or quarter breaks getting research experience in one of the US’s premier research facilities for nuclear and particle physics. 5)Salary and/or stipends as long as the grant provides them. Does Jefferson Lab have a future?
