Summary of Analysis Workshop and Hall A Collaboration Meeting -------------------------------------------------------------------- On December 10 and 11, 2002 the second annual Hall A analysis workshop was held at Jefferson Lab. The focus of this years analysis workshop was on how various aspects of Jefferson Lab work, including the accelerator, target, and spectrometers. Electronic versions of the talks can be found at: http://hallaweb.jlab.org/data_reduc/AnaWork2002/ -------------------------------------------------------------------- On December 12 and 13 the semi-annual Hall A meeting was held. At the meeting, the following people were officially added to the collaboration: Ph.D. students: Areg Danagoulian (University of Illinois) RCS Lisa Kaufman (University of Massachusetts) HAPPEX-II Bin Ma (Massachusetts Institute of Technology) 4He(e,e'p) Vahe Mamyan (Old Dominion University) RCS Carlos Munoz-Camacho (CEA Saclay) DVCS Post-Docs: Dr. Robert Feuerbach (Hall A) Hall A Experiments Dr. Dan Protopopescu (Glasgow University) Hall A Experiments Dr. Andrei Semenov (Kent State University) GEn Staff Physicists: Dr. Alexander Borissov (Glasgow University) RCS-II Prof. Benjamin Crowe (North Carolina Central Univ.) GEn Dr. Ru Igarashi (University of Saskatchewan) BigBite Prof. Norm Kolb (University of Saskatchewan) BigBite Prof. J.-C. Peng (University of Illinois) Hall A Experiments Kees reported that to date there are now 13 PRL/PLB Hall A publications along with 6 other refereed journals, and 7 NIM papers. http://hallaweb.jlab.org/publications/Talks/Lists/Journal_Publications.html The Hall A NIM paper is now in its final draft and five experiments have archival papers in preparation. In 2002, we finished five experiments (E99-114, E98-108, E01-001, E01-020, and E00-007). The analysis has been completed on four experiments (E94-010, E93-049, E93-050 and E99-117) and at least two more are nearing completion. The following is a list of the experiments which made presentations: E89-044: 3He(e,e'p) Fatiha Benmokhtar E91-011: N->Delta Rikki Roche E97-103: g2 Kevin Kramer E97-111: 4He(e,e'p)t Bodo Reitz E98-108: Kaon John LeRose E99-114: RCS David Hamilton E99-117: A1n Jian-Ping Chen E00-007: D(g,p) Ron Gilman E01-001: SuperRosenbluth Ralph Segel E00-102: 16O(e,e'p) Wendy Hinton E01-020: D(e,e'p) Hassan Ibrahim Also presented were status reports of upcoming experiments: E01-012: Spin Duality Nilanga Liyanage E97-110: Small Angle GDH Alexandre Deur E99-115 & E00-114: Parity Kent Paschke There are now many experiments in Hall A which require the construction of new equipment for the Hall A. The following presentations were made: Septum Update John LeRose Ring Imaging Cherenkov Francesco Cusanno Moller Polarimetry Eugene Chudakov DVCS Franck Sabatie BigBite Peter Monaghan Neutron Detectors John Watson The delays in the delivering continue to be problematic, though the first septum has arrived at Jefferson Lab. More information about Hall A experiments and equipment can be found in the 2002 status report: http://hallaweb.jlab.org/publications/StatusReports/StatusReport2002.pdf The Hall A version of the pCDR for the 12GeV upgrade was summarized by Zein-Eddine Meziani and the report can be found at: http://hallaweb.jlab.org/12GeV/ Finally five of the seven PAC23 proposal were presented during the collaboration meeting. Copies of all seven proposals can be found at: http://hallaweb.jlab.org/collab/PAC23/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------- The attached photo was taken during the collaboration meeting.
