Structure of the Neutron and Few-Body Nuclear Systems with Electron Scattering

小行星9511192 以核子电荷、磁化、自旋结构、少核子系统的短程结构为中心，进行高能电子散射反应的研究。 这些领域的研究将促进我们对这些系统的夸克和胶子结构的理解。 这些主题是当代核物理学的高优先级活动。 这项工作将在SLAC和CEBAF电子加速器实验室进行。 开发、建造和利用主要的最先进设备，包括CEBAF A厅光谱仪的塑料闪烁体描迹仪，是这项活动的组成部分。 研究生、本科生和博士后的教育是这位肯特州立大学研究人员获得这笔赠款的各个方面的重要组成部分。 ***

9511192 Petratos Research will be carried out in high energy electron scattering reactions centered on the study of (1) nucleon charge, magnetization, and spin structure, and (2) the short-range structure of few-nucleon systems. Research in these areas will advance our understanding of the quark and gluon structure of these systems. These topics are high priority activities in contemporary nuclear physics. The work will be carried out at the SLAC and CEBAF electron accelerator laboratories. Development, construction, and utilization of major state-of-the- art equipment, including a plastic scintillator hodoscope for the CEBAF Hall A spectrometer, is integral to this activity. Education of graduate and undergraduate students and postdocs is a strong component in every aspect of this grant for this Kent State University researcher. ***
