2 e e’ p,π,… Large solid angle multi particle (charge and neutral) detector HMSSHMS Coverage of a large fraction of the hemisphere (“backward” =4π-forward) consistent operation with the forward spectrometers. Ability to detect multi charge particles with good PID and moderate momentum resolution. Ability to detect neutrons with high efficiency. Ability to operate at 10-100% of the full luminosity of Hall C (10-100 times the planned luminosity for CLAS).

6 ~800 MeV/c ~400 MeV/c star geometry Colinear geometry : From (e,e’p) + N to (e,e’p)+2N Exclusive measurement: From triple coincidence (2N SRC) to 4 fold coincidence (3N SRC) Needs large acceptance multi particle detector Need to detect two recoil nucleons 0.3-1 GeV/c p and n

7 Are the nucleons in the SRC pair different from free nucleons (e.g size,shape, mass, etc.) ? Are they nucleons ? For a 1 fm separation, the central density is about 4 times nuclear central density  1.f Nucleons 2N-SRC   4  o ~1 fm

8 Looking for non-nucleonic degrees of freedom The signature of a non-nucleonic SRC intermediate state is a large branching ratio to a non-nucleonic final state. Breaking the pair will yield more backward Δ, π, k  1.f Nucleons 2N-SRC   5  o ~1 fm

11 Δ Kinematics p Δ =640 MeV/c With SHMS(e) and HMS(p) acceptances and Γ=110 MeV Needs large acceptance multi particle detector

12 Extrapolation factor ~10 Measured ratio Extrapolated ratio The Limited acceptance allows determination of only two components of the pair cm momentum. Even the triple coincidence SRC experiment could be done better with a larger acceptance detector.

13 A large acceptance detector allows tagging of the DIS event EMC High nuclear density tagging : A recoil high momentum nucleon to the backward hemisphere is a signature of 2N-SRC i.e large local nuclear density. Due to the dominance of np-SRC pairs: a recoil neutron tags a proton structure function a recoil proton tags a neutron structure function Flavor tagging : Identifying a π + or π - with a large z can point to the flavor of the struck quark ( u or d). Recoil and forward tagging allows the study of u, d in p, n

14 Hadronization Measure the multiplicity and the type of emitted particles in a large acceptance “backward direction ” in coincidence with the forward (large z) leading π +, π -, k +, k - particle. Difference in hadronization of different quarks Difference between hardonization in a free space and nuclear medium

15 GPDs Hall C With a large acceptance detector: low mass πN system- a test of chiral symmetry With Deuteron one can measure imultaneously both proton and neutron by detecting the recoil neutron or proton respectively ? Hall B

16 Nuclear Matter in non - equilibrium condition Using hard processes to remove a single or a few nucleons from the nucleus creates a non-stable state. How does such a non-stable state decay to a stable system?

17 Large solid angle- 4π – non-symmetric opening in the forward hemisphere Large (full) luminosity Can operate in coincidence with small solid angle, high resolution spectrometer / spectrometers Multi particle detection Particle ID p e e’ Δ p A (4π – forward) DETECTOR Cover up to ~180 0 (the planed 12GeV CLAS cover up to 135 0 only)

The CLAS as a 4π-forward detector Need new power supplies, and electronics Require a careful, non trivial dismount of the current detector at Hall B and non trivial setup at hall c.

30 How to relate what we learned about SRC in nuclei to the dynamics of neutron star formation and structure ? SRC in nuclei NN interaction: what is the role played by the repulsive core ? Are the nucleons in the SRC pair different from free nucleons (e.g size,shape, mass, etc.) ? Are they nucleons ? What is the role played by short range correlation of more than two nucleons ? SRC in nuclei Roadmap  1.f Nucleons 2N-SRC 1.7f  o = 0.16 GeV/fm 3   5  o ~1 fm 1.7 fm

32 Identifying Future Experiments Looking for SRC with more than 2 nucleons:

33 Identifying Future Experiments Looking for SRC with more than 2 nucleons: The problems: The cross sections are small. 1N >> 2N - SRC >> 3N – SRC. star geometry : What is the signature for 3N correlation ? Questions What is the difference from two 2N correlations ? What is the expected isospin structure of the 3N ?

34 Identifying Future Experiments Looking for SRC with more than 2 nucleons: The problems: The cross sections are small. 1N >> 2N - SRC >> 3N – SRC. The cure for 1N background is : large p miss and/or large X B The cure for 2N-SRC: X B >2 or suppression of the 2N-SRC at p rel =300-600 MeV/c for nn or pp pairs.

35 Identifying Future Experiments Looking for SRC with more than 2 nucleons: Colinear geometry : Initial configurations ~800 MeV/c The signal of today is tomorrow’s background The 2N-SRC interaction is suppressed, opening a window of opportunity to identify 3N correlation. ~400 MeV/c A very strong isospin dependence is expected for the 2N part. For the 3N?

36 Identifying Future Experiments Looking for SRC with more than 2 nucleons: Colinear geometry ~800 MeV/c FSI are strong function of θ SRC are not

37 Identifying Future Experiments Looking for non-nucleonic degrees of freedom The signature of a non-nucleonic SRC intermediate state is a large branching ratio to a non nucleonic final state. Breaking the pair will yield more backward Δ, π, k  1.f Nucleons 2N-SRC   5  o ~1 fm

38 Looking for non-nucleonic degrees of freedom In coincidence with (e, e’p), as a function of the missing momentum we want to detect; p, n, π-, π+ k - triple coincidence
