Positrons at Jefferson Laboratory
arXiv:0907.4748 · doi:10.1063/1.3232031
Abstract
We review the compelling case for establishing a capability to accelerate positrons at Jefferson Lab. The potential appplications range from the study of two-photon exchange and deeply-virtual Compton scattering to exploiting the charge current weak interaction to probe the flavor structure of hadrons and nuclei. There are also fascinating ideas for using such a capability to discover new physics beyond the Standard Model of nuclear and particle physics.
Invited talk at the International Workshop on Positrons at Jefferson Lab, March 25-27, 2009
