General Physics Colloquium, Dr. Jens Dilling, Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility

Title: The future of Jefferson Lab, science and vision at the U.S. Department of Energy Nuclear Physics Laboratory

Host: Nigel Lockyer

Abstract: Jens Dilling will present an overview of Jefferson Lab including the current status of the nuclear physics program at the 12GeV CEBAF facility, for highly polarized electron beam experiments to probe the structure of protons, neutrons and nuclei, test QCD and develop a coherent and inclusive nuclear framework. The talk will also lay out future plans and opportunities for the laboratory in nuclear physics and beyond.
