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

研究方向为高能电子散射反应，主要研究(1)核子荷电、磁化和自旋结构；(2)少核子体系的短程结构。在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。这些课题是当代核物理学中高度优先的活动。这项工作将在SLAC和CEBAF电子加速器实验室进行。主要先进设备的开发、建设和使用，包括CEBAF a厅光谱仪的塑料闪烁式反射镜，是这项活动不可或缺的一部分。对于这位肯特州立大学的研究人员来说，研究生、本科生和博士后的教育是这项资助的一个重要组成部分。＊＊＊

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. ***
