Positrons at Jefferson Lab

Year: 2009

Type: conference-paper

Abstract: We review the compelling case for establishing a capability to accelerate positrons at Jefferson Lab. The potential applications range from the study of two-photon exchange and deeply-virtual Compton scattering to exploiting the charged current weak interaction to probe the flavor structure of hadrons and nuclei. There are also fascinating ideas for using such a capability to discover new physics beyond the Standard Model of nuclear and particle physics.
