Research Interests (this part
requires work, lots of work)
- Experimental Nuclear and
Particle Physics
- Construction of a proton
polarimeter
(FPP) for the hadron spectrometer in Hall A at TJNAF (formerly CEBAF)
- Measurement of the proton
electric-to-magnetic
form factor ratio, GEp/GMp, by polarization transfer, to four-momentum
transfer squared of 3.5 GeV2 in experiment 93-027 (Summer
1998).
- for details see experiment93027,
and homepage93027.
- Experiment 99-007
continues
the measurement
of GEp/GMp to 5.6 GeV2 ; it ran in
November/December
2000. The experimental results have been fully analysed, and a paper
submitted
to Physical Review Letters on Nov. 15, 2001. The reports of 2 referees
have been received Dec. 20; they both recommend publication.
- Polarimeter development
for
high energy
protons (up to 6 GeV) and deuterons (up to 2 GeV) energy.
- Newest experiment, to
continue measurement
of GEp/GMp to
9 GeV2 , was approved
