Quasi-Elastic Family

A parasitic measurement of G^E_n will be made using the Hall A Neutron Detector and Right High Resolution Spectrometer.

This is the only Jefferson Lab polarized ³He→ experiment which is seeking to better understand the ³He→ system, as opposed to using it as an effective neutron target, by measuring double-polarized asymmetries in the ³He→(e→,e'd) reaction which are believed to be a probe particularly sensitive to the details of the ³He system. Major theoretical advances have been made in the Faddeev calculations of the Bochum/Krakow and Hannover groups, resulting in quite distinct descriptions of these observables. This development has important implications for experiments using ³He as an effective neutron target.

This experiment is scheduled to run in Jefferson Lab's Experiment Hall A from May 11 through June 14, 2009.
