The extraction of neutrino mixing parameters from neutrino oscillation experiments relies on the reconstruction of the incident neutrino energy and knowledge of the neutrino-nucleus interaction cross section for various nuclei and incident neutrino energies. The energy reconstruction is done using the yield and kinematics of particles produced from neutrino interactions in nuclei. However, none of these energy reconstruction techniques have been tested experimentally using beams of known energy.

Because neutrinos and electrons are both leptons, they interact with nuclei in similar ways. We propose to measure electron scattering from a variety of targets at a range of beam energies in …

K± Production In Semi-Inclusive Deep Inelastic Scattering Using Transversely Polarized Targets And The Solid Spectrometer, John Arrington, Whitney Armstrong, Paul Reimer, Seamus Riordan, Junqi Xie, Zhihong Ye, Andrew Puckett, Haiyan Gao, Chao Gu, Xiaqing Li, Weizhi Xiong, Zhiwen Zhao, Fatiha Benmokhtar, Alexandre Camsonne, Jian-Ping Chen, Tianbo Liu, Miha Mihovilovič, Simon Širca, Mitra Shabestari, Mohammad Hattawy, Garth Huber, Abhay Despande, Klaus Dehmelt, Nils Feege, Thomas Hemmick, Krishna Kumar, Sanghwa Park, Jinlong Zhang, Chendi Shen, Fuyue Wang, Yi Wang

Physics Faculty Publications

We propose to perform the measurement of K^± production in the Semi-Inclusive Deep Inelastic Scattering (SIDIS) using both the transversely polarized proton (NH₃) target and the transversely polarized ³He target (as effective polarized neutron target) on the SoLID spectrometer. This measurement will be carried out in parallel with the already approved SoLID spectrometer. This measurement will be carried out in parallel with the already approved SoLID experiments which will measure the π^± production in SIDIS, including E12-10-006 with transversely polarized ³He target and E12-11-108 with a transversely polarized NH₃ target. We will perform the off-line analysis to extract …

Parton Distribution Functions On The Lattice And In The Continuum, Joseph Karpie, Kostas Orginos, Anatoly Radyushkin, Savvas Zafeiropoulos

Physics Faculty Publications

Ioffe-time distributions, which are functions of the Ioffe-time ν, are the Fourier transforms of parton distribution functions with respect to the momentum fraction variable x. These distributions can be obtained from suitable equal time, quark bilinear hadronic matrix elements which can be calculated from first principles in lattice QCD, as it has been recently argued. In this talk I present the first numerical calculation of the Ioffe-time distributions of the nucleon in the quenched approximation.

Study Of J/Ψ Photoproduction Off Deuteron, M. D. Baker, A. J. Freese, L. Guo, C. Hyde, Y. Ilieva, B. Mckinnon, P. Nadel-Turonski, M. Sargsian, V. Kubarovsky, S. Stepanyan, N. Zachariou, Z. W. Zhao

Physics Faculty Publications

Exclusive, near-threshold quasi-real photoproduction of J/ψ off the deuteron provides attractive opportunities to study interesting physics. Besides studying the gluonic structure of bound nucleons and the deuteron (in coherent production), studying the final-state interactions allows a direct access to the elementary J/ψN cross section. There is one measurement of the near-threshold quasi-elastic J/ψ production off the deuteron, however data on final-state interactions or of the coherent cross section do not exist. With its high luminosity and large acceptance, the CLAS12 detector is well suited to measure near-threshold photoproduction of J/ψ off the deuteron.

This is a proposal to measure the …

Ψ(2s) Versus J/Ψ Suppression In Proton-Nucleus Collisions From Factorization Violating Soft Color, Yan-Qing Ma, Raju Venugopalan, Kazuhiro Watanabe, Hong-Fei Zhang

Physics Faculty Publications

We argue that the large suppression of the ψ(2S) inclusive cross section relative to the J/ψ inclusive cross section in proton-nucleus (p+A) collisions can be attributed to factorization breaking effects in the formation of quarkonium. These factorization breaking effects arise from soft color exchanges between charm-anticharm pairs undergoing hadronization and comoving partons that are long lived on time scales of quarkonium formation. We compute the short distance pair production of heavy quarks in the color glass condensate (CGC) effective field theory and employ an improved color evaporation model (ICEM) to describe their hadronization into quarkonium at large distances. The …

High Field Q Slope And The Effect Of Low-Temperature Baking At 3 Ghz, G. Ciovati, G. Eremeev, F. Hannon

Physics Faculty Publications

A strong degradation of the unloaded quality factor with field, called high field Q slope, is commonly observed above B_p ≅ 100 mT in elliptical superconducting niobium cavities at 1.3 and 1.5 GHz. In the present experiments several 3 GHz niobium cavities were measured up to and above B_p ≅ 100 mT. The measurements show that a high field Q slope phenomenon limits the field reach at this frequency, that the high field Q slope onset field depends weakly on the frequency, and that the high field Q slope can be removed by the typical empirical solution of …

Quantum Monte Carlo Calculations Of Weak Transitions In A=6-10 Nuclei, S. Pastore, A. Baroni, S. Gandolfi, R. Schiavilla, R. B. Wiringa

Physics Faculty Publications

Ab initio calculations of the Gamow-Teller (GT) matrix elements in the β decays of ⁶He and ¹⁰C and electron captures in 7Be are carried out using both variational and Green's function Monte Carlo wave functions obtained from the Argonne v18 two-nucleon and Illinois-7 three-nucleon interactions, and axial many-body currents derived from either meson-exchange phenomenology or chiral effective field theory. The agreement with experimental data is excellent for the electron captures in ⁷Be, while theory overestimates the ⁶He and ¹⁰C data by ~2% and ~10%, respectively. We show that for these systems correlations in the nuclear …

Resonances From Lattice Qcd, Raúl A. Briceño

Physics Faculty Publications

The spectrum of hadron is mainly composed as shortly-lived states (resonance) that decay onto two or more hadrons. These resonances play an important role in a variety of phenomenologically significant processes. In this talk, I give an overview on the present status of a rigorous program for studying of resonances and their properties using lattice QCD. I explain the formalism needed for extracting resonant amplitudes from the finite-volume spectra. From these one can extract the masses and widths of resonances. I present some recent examples that illustrate the power of these ideas. I then explain similar formalism that allows for …

Scattering Processes And Resonances From Lattice Qcd, Raúl A. Briceño, Jozef J. Dudek, Ross D. Young

Physics Faculty Publications

The vast majority of hadrons observed in nature are not stable under the strong interaction; rather they are resonances whose existence is deduced from enhancements in the energy dependence of scattering amplitudes. The study of hadron resonances offers a window into the workings of quantum chromodynamics (QCD) in the low-energy nonperturbative region, and in addition many probes of the limits of the electroweak sector of the standard model consider processes which feature hadron resonances. From a theoretical standpoint, this is a challenging field: the same dynamics that binds quarks and gluons into hadron resonances also controls their decay into lighter …

Measurements Of The Separated Longitudinal Structure Function Fl From Hydrogen And Deuterium Targets At Low Q2, V. Tvaskis, A. Tvaskis, I. Niculescu, D. Abbott, G. S. Adams, A. Afanasev, A. Ahmidouch, T. Angelescu, J. Arrington, A. Klein

Physics Faculty Publications

Structure functions, as measured in lepton-nucleon scattering, have proven to be very useful in studying the partonic dynamics within the nucleon. However, it is experimentally difficult to separately determine the longitudinal and transverse structure functions, and consequently there are substantially less data available in particular for the longitudinal structure function. Here, we present separated structure functions for hydrogen and deuterium at low four-momentum transfer squared, Q² < 1GeV², and compare them with parton distribution parametrization and k_T factorization approaches. While differences are found, the parametrizations generally agree with the data, even at the very low-Q² scale of …

Measurement Of The Beam Asymmetry Σ And The Target Asymmetry T In The Photoproduction Of Ω Mesons Off The Proton Using Clas At Jefferson Laboratory, P. Roy, K. P. Adhikari, G. Charles, G. Gavalian, A. Klein, M. Mayer, Y. Prok, B. Torayev, J. Zhang, Z. W. Zhao

Physics Faculty Publications

he photoproduction of ω mesons off the proton has been studied in the reaction γp → pω using the CEBAF Large Acceptance Spectrometer (CLAS) and the frozen-spin target in Hall B at the Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility. For the first time, the target asymmetry T has been measured in photoproduction from the decay ω → π⁺π⁻π⁰, using a transversely polarized target with energies ranging from just above the reaction threshold up to 2.8 GeV. Significant nonzero values are observed for these asymmetries, reaching about 30–40% in the third-resonance region. New measurements for the …

Center Of Mass Motion Of Short-Range Correlated Nucleon Pairs Studied Via The A(E, E'Pp) Reaction, Clas Collaboration, L. B. Weinstein, M. J. Amaryan, F. Hauenstein, A. Klein, S. E. Kuhn

Physics Faculty Publications

Short-range correlated (SRC) nucleon pairs are a vital part of the nucleus, accounting for almost all nucleons with momentum greater than the Fermi momentum (k_F). A fundamental characteristic of SRC pairs is having large relative momenta as compared to k_F, and smaller center of mass (c.m.) which indicates a small separation distance between the nucleons in the pair. Determining the c.m. momentum distribution of SRC pairs is essential for understanding their formation process. We report here on the extraction of the c.m. motion of proton-proton (pp) SRC pairs in carbon and, for the first …

Measurement Of The Q² Dependence Of The Deuteron Spin Structure Function G1 And Its Moments At Low Q² With Clas, Clas Collaboration, K. P. Adhikari, L. El Fassi, S E. Kuhn, M. J. Amaryan, S. Bültmann, G. Charles, Gail Dodge, N. Guler, C. E. Hyde, A. Klein, D. Payette, J. Poudel, Y. Prok, L. B. Weinstein, J. Zhang, Z. W. Zhao

Physics Faculty Publications

We measured the g₁ spin structure function of the deuteron at low Q², where QCD can be approximated with chiral perturbation theory (χPT). The data cover the resonance region, up to an invariant mass of W ≈ 1.9  GeV. The generalized Gerasimov-Drell-Hearn sum, the moment Γ^d₁ and the spin polarizability γ^d₀ are precisely determined down to a minimum Q² of 0.02  GeV² for the first time, about 2.5 times lower than that of previous data. We compare them to several χPT calculations and models. These results are the first in a …

Semi-Inclusive Πº Target And Beam-Target Asymmetries From 6 Gev Electron Scattering With Clas, S. Koirala, S E. Kuhn, D. Adikaram, M. J. Amaryan, S. Bültmann, G. Charles, Gail Dodge, N. Guler, M. Khachatryan, A. Klein, Y. Prok, L. B. Weinstein, Z. W. Zhao

Physics Faculty Publications

We present precision measurements of the target and beam-target spin asymmetries from neutral pion electroproduction in deep-inelastic scattering (DIS) using the CEBAF Large Acceptance Spectrometer (CLAS) at Jefferson Lab. We scattered 6-GeV, longitudinally polarized electrons off longitudinally polarized protons in a cryogenic ¹⁴NH₃ target, and extracted double and single target spin asymmetries for ep → e′π⁰X in multidimensional bins in four-momentum transfer (1.0 < Q² < 3.2 GeV²), Bjorken-x (0.12 < x < 0.48), hadron energy fraction (0.4 < z < 0.7), transverse pion momentum (0 < P_T < 1.0 GeV), and azimuthal angle ϕ_h between the lepton scattering and hadron production planes. We extracted asymmetries as a function of both x and P_T, which provide access to transverse-momentum …

Exclusive Photoproduction Of Πº Up To Large Values Of Mandelstam Variables S, T, And U With Clas, Clas Collaboration, M. C. Kunkel, M. J. Amaryan, S. Bültmann, G. Charles, C. E. Hyde, A. Klein, S E. Kuhn, J. Poudel, Y. Prok, L. B. Weinstein, Z. W. Zhao

Physics Faculty Publications

Exclusive photoproduction cross sections have been measured for the process γp→pπ⁰[e⁺e⁻(γ)] with the Dalitz decay final state using tagged photon energies in the range of E_γ= 1.275–5.425 GeV. The complete angular distribution of the final state π⁰ , for the entire photon energy range up to large values of t and u, has been measured for the first time. The data obtained show that the cross section dσ/dt , at mid to large angles, decreases with energy as s^{−6.89±0.26} . This is in agreement with the perturbative QCD quark …

Crab Cavity Requirements For The Jefferson Lab Electron-Ion Collider, Salvador Isaac Sosa Güitrón

Physics Theses & Dissertations

An Electron-Ion Collider (EIC) has been proposed to be the next large facility to explore the dynamics of quarks and gluons inside nuclei. A conceptual design for a Jefferson Lab Electron-Ion Collider (JLEIC) is being developed. It is based on the CEBAF 12 GeV machine as a full energy electron beam injector. Two crucial requirements of JLEIC are high luminosity in the 10³⁴ cm^-2s^-1 range, and full acceptance detection of particles. The full acceptance requirement relies on having the beams collide at a relatively large crossing angle of 50 mrad. Such a large crossing angle, however, …

Simulation Of Inverse Compton Scattering And Its Implications On The Scattered Linewidth, N. Ranjan, B. Terzić, G. A. Krafft, V. Petrillo, I. Drebot, L. Serafini

Physics Faculty Publications

Rising interest in inverse Compton sources has increased the need for efficient models that properly quantify the behavior of scattered radiation given a set of interaction parameters. The current state-of-the-art simulations rely on Monte Carlo-based methods, which, while properly expressing scattering behavior in high-probability regions of the produced spectra, may not correctly simulate such behavior in low-probability regions (e.g. tails of spectra). Moreover, sampling may take an inordinate amount of time for the desired accuracy to be achieved. In this paper, we present an analytic derivation of the expression describing the scattered radiation linewidth and propose a model to describe …

Search For Three-Nucleon Short-Range Correlations In Light Nuclei, Z. Ye, P. Solvignon, D. Nguten, P. Aguilera, Z. Ahmed, H. Albataineh, K. Allada, B. Anderson, D. Anez, L. B. Weinstein

Physics Faculty Publications

We present new data probing short-range correlations (SRCs) in nuclei through the measurement of electron scattering off high-momentum nucleons in nuclei. The inclusive ⁴He/³He cross section ratio is observed to be both x and Q² independent for 1.5 < x < 2, confirming the dominance of two-nucleon short-range correlations. For x > 2, our data support the hypothesis that a previous claim of three-nucleon correlation dominance was an artifact caused by the limited resolution of the measurement. While 3N-SRCs appear to have an important contribution, our data show that isolating 3N-SRCs is significantly more complicated than for 2N-SRCs.

A Glimpse Of Gluons Through Deeply Virtual Compton Scattering On The Proton, M. Defurne, A. Marti Jimenez-Arguello, Z. Ahmed, H. Albataineh, K. Allada, K. A. Aniol, V. Bellini, M. Benali, W. Boeglin, P. Bertin, M. Canan, C. E. Hyde, M. N. H. Rashad

Physics Faculty Publications

The internal structure of nucleons (protons and neutrons) remains one of the greatest outstanding problems in modern nuclear physics. By scattering high-energy electrons off a proton we are able to resolve its fundamental constituents and probe their momenta and positions. Here we investigate the dynamics of quarks and gluons inside nucleons using deeply virtual Compton scattering (DVCS)-a highly virtual photon scatters off the proton, which subsequently radiates a photon. DVCS interferes with the Bethe-Heitler (BH) process, where the photon is emitted by the electron rather than the proton. We report herein the full determination of the BH-DVCS interference by exploiting …

First Exclusive Measurement Of Deeply Virtual Compton Scattering Off 4He: Toward The 3d Tomography Of Nuclei, M. Hattawy, N. A. Baltzell, R. Dupré, K. Hafidi, S. Stepanyan, S. Bültmann, R.

We report on the first measurement of the beam-spin asymmetry in the exclusive process of coherent deeply virtual Compton scattering off a nucleus. The experiment uses the 6 GeV electron beam from the Continuous Electron Beam Accelerator Facility (CEBAF) accelerator at Jefferson Lab incident on a pressurized ⁴He gaseous target placed in front of the CEBAF Large Acceptance Spectrometer (CLAS). The scattered electron is detected by CLAS and the photon by a dedicated electromagnetic calorimeter at forward angles. To ensure the exclusivity of the process, a specially designed radial time projection chamber is used to detect the recoiling ^{4 …}

Instrument Design Optimization With Computational Methods, Michael H. Moore

Physics Theses & Dissertations

Using Finite Element Analysis to approximate the solution of differential equations, two different instruments in experimental Hall C at the Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility are analyzed. The time dependence of density fluctuations from the liquid hydrogen (LH2) target used in the Q_weak experiment (2011-2012) are studied with Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) and the simulation results compared to data from the experiment. The 2.5 kW liquid hydrogen target was the highest power LH2 target in the world and the first to be designed with CFD at Jefferson Lab. The first complete magnetic field simulation of the Super High Momentum …

Test Of New Readout Electronics For The Bonus12 Experiment, Mathieu Ehrhart

Physics Theses & Dissertations

For decades, electron-proton scattering experiments have been providing a large amount of data on the proton structure function. However, because of the instability of free neutrons, fewer experiments have been able to study the neutron structure function. The BONuS collaboration at Jefferson Laboratory addresses this challenge by scattering electrons off a deuterium target, using a RTPC capable of detecting the low-momentum spectator protons near the target. Events of electrons scattering on almost free neutrons are selected by constraining the spectator protons to very low momenta and very backward scattering angles. In 2005, BONuS successfully measured the neutron structure with scattering …

Nuclear Chiral Axial Currents And Applications To Few-Nucleon Systems, Alessandro Baroni

Physics Theses & Dissertations

This Thesis is divided into three main parts. The first part discusses basic aspects of chiral effective field theory and the formalism, based on time ordered perturbation theory, used to to derive the nuclear potentials and currents from the chiral Lagrangians. The second part deals with the actual derivation, up to one loop, of the two-nucleon potential and one- and two-nucleon weak axial charge and current. In both derivations ultraviolet divergences generated by loop corrections are isolated using dimensional regularization. The resulting axial current is finite and conserved in the chiral limit, while the axial charge requires renormalization. A complete …

Searching For Heavy Photons With Detached Vertices In The Heavy Photon Search Experiment, Holly Szumila-Vance

Physics Theses & Dissertations

The Jefferson Lab Heavy Photon Search (HPS) experiment is searching for a hypothetical massive particle called the heavy photon which could mediate a dark electromagnetic-type force. If heavy photons kinetically mix with Standard Model photons, they may be radiated by electrons scattering from a heavy nucleus and then decay to e+e- pairs. HPS uniquely searches for heavy photons that either decay at the target or a measurable distance after. The experiment utilizes a silicon vertex tracker (SVT) for momentum and vertex reconstruction, together with an electromagnetic calorimeter for measuring particle energies and triggering events. The HPS experiment took its first …

R&D Of A High-Performance Dirc Detector For A Future Electron-Ion Collider, Stacey Lee Allison

Physics Theses & Dissertations

An Electron-Ion Collider (EIC) is proposed as the next big scientific facility to be built in the United States, costing over $1 billion in design and construction. Each detector concept for the electron/ion beam interaction point is integrated into a large solenoidal magnet. The necessity for excellent hadronic particle identification (pion/kaon/proton) in the barrel region of the solenoid has pushed research and development (R&D) towards a new, high-performance Detection of Internally Reflected Cherenkov light (DIRC) detector design. The passage of a high energy charged particle through a fused silica bar of the DIRC generates optical Cherenkov radiation. A large fraction …

Rosenbluth Separation Of The Π0 Electroproduction Cross Section Off The Neutron, M. Mazouz, Z. Ahmed, H. Albataineh, K. Allada, K. A. Aniol, V. Bellini, M. Benali, W. Boeglin, P. Bertin, M. Canan, C. E. Hyde, S. Koirala, M. N. H. Rashad

Physics Faculty Publications

We report the first longitudinal-transverse separation of the deeply virtual exclusive π⁰ electroproduction cross section off the neutron and coherent deuteron. The corresponding four structure functions dσ_L/dt, dσ_T/dt, dσ_LT/dt, and dσ_TT/dt are extracted as a function of the momentum transfer to the recoil system at Q² = 1.75 GeV² and x_B = 0.36. The ed -> edπ⁰ cross sections are found compatible with the small values expected from theoretical models. The en -> enπ⁰ cross sections show a dominance from the response to transversely polarized …

What Are The Low-Q And Large-X Boundaries Of Collinear Qcd Factorization Theorems?, E. Moffat, W. Melnitchouk, T. C. Rogers, N. Sato

Physics Faculty Publications

Familiar factorized descriptions of classic QCD processes such as deeply inelastic scattering (DIS) apply in the limit of very large hard scales, much larger than nonperturbative mass scales and other nonperturbative physical properties like intrinsic transverse momentum. Since many interesting DIS studies occur at kinematic regions where the hard scale, Q ∼ 1-2 GeV, is not very much greater than the hadron masses involved, and the Bjorken scaling variable x_bj is large, x_bj ≳ 0.5, it is important to examine the boundaries of the most basic factorization assumptions and assess whether improved starting points are needed. Using an …

The target and double spin asymmetries of the exclusive pseudoscalar channel e→p→→epπ⁰ were measured for the first time in the deep-inelastic regime using a longitudinally polarized 5.9 GeV electron beam and a longitudinally polarized proton target at Jefferson Lab with the CEBAF Large Acceptance Spectrometer (CLAS). The data were collected over a large kinematic phase space and divided into 110 four-dimensional bins of Q^2, x_B, −t and ϕ. Large values of asymmetry moments clearly indicate a substantial contribution to the polarized structure functions from transverse virtual photon amplitudes. The interpretation of experimental data in terms of …

Factorization Breaking Of Adt For Polarized Deuteron Targets In A Relativistic Framework, Sabine Jeschonnek, J. W. Van Orden

Physics Faculty Publications

We discuss the possible factorization of the tensor asymmetry AdT measured for polarized deuteron targets within a relativistic framework. We define a reduced asymmetry and find that factorization holds only in plane wave impulse approximation and if p waves are neglected. Our numerical results show a strong factorization breaking once final state interactions are included. We also compare the d-wave content of the wave functions with the size of the factored, reduced asymmetry and find that there is no systematic relationship of this quantity to the d-wave probability of the various wave functions.
