  29. Parity Violating DIS A V V A Moller PV is insensitive to the Cij C1u and C1d will be determined to high precision by Qweak, APV Cs C2u and C2d are small and poorly known: one combination can be accessed in PV DIS New physics such as compositeness, leptoquarks: Deviations to C2u and C2d might be fractionally large

  30. PVDIS with SoLID • High Luminosity on LH2 & LD2 • Better than 1% errors for small bins • x-range 0.25-0.75 • Moderate running times

  31. (2C2u-C2d)=0.012 (sin2W)=0.0009 Unique, unmatched constraints on axial-vector quark couplings: Complementary to LHC direct searches • 1 TeV extra gauge bosons (model dependent) • TeV scale leptoquarks with specific chiral couplings Examples: Physics Implications

  32. PV DIS and Nucleon Structure • PVDIS provide precision study of hadron structure: • Higher twist effects • Charge Symmetry Violation (CSV) • d/u at high x • JLab at 11 GeV offers new opportunities • PV DIS can address issues directly • Luminosity and kinematic coverage • Outstanding opportunities for new discoveries • Provide confidence in electroweak measurement

  33. Parity Violating Moller Scattering QWe modified sin2W runs with Q2 (sin2W) ~ 0.0003 Comparable to single collider measurements • Semileptonic processes have • theoretical uncertainties • E158 established running, • probing vector boson loops • JLab measurement would • have impact on • discrepancy between • leptonic and hadronic Z-pole • measurements

  34. Hadronization in Nuclear SIDIS Quark Propagation Through Nuclei

  35. Nuclear Deep Inelastic Scattering and Hadronization • We can learn about hadronization distance scales and reaction mechanisms from semi-inclusive nuclear DIS • Nucleus acts as a spatial filter for outgoing hadronization products Initial focus on properties of leading hadron; correlations with subleading hadrons and soft protons also of interest.

  38. Summary • 12 GeV JLab with high luminosity (1039 unpol., 1036-1037 pol.) and large acceptance will lead us to a new precision frontier • Provide precision data on multi-dimension nucleon structure and a deep understanding of strong interaction: • Spin-flavor structure in the valence region • Generalized Parton Distributions with DVCS and limited DVMP • Transverse Spin and TMDs with SIDIS • Parity violating electron scattering provide precision low-energy tests of standard model and a precision tool to study hadronic physics • Precision Study of hadronization and nuclei medium effects • Other important physics opportunities: • GlueX, Form Factors, Short-range Correlations, Few-Body, J/y, …

  39. Strong Interaction and QCD • A major challenge in fundamental physics: Understand QCD in all regions, including strong interaction (confinement) region • Strong interaction, running coupling ~1 -- QCD: accepted theory for strong interaction -- asymptotic freedom (2004 Nobel) perturbation calculation works at high energy -- interaction significant at intermediate energy quark-gluon correlations -- interaction strong at low energy (nucleon size) confinement, chiral symmetry breaking as E

  40. New Hall D, Enhanced Existing Halls A, B & C C D 9 GeV tagged polarized photons and a 4 hermetic detector Super High Momentum Spectrometer (SHMS) at high luminosity and forward angles A B Retain HRS Pair for continuation of research in which resolution comparable to nuclear level spacing is essential. Use Hall to stage “one-of-a-kind” specialized experiments requiring unique apparatus. CLAS upgraded to higher (1035 cm-2s-1) luminosity and coverage

  41. Why Are PDFs at High x Important? • Valence quark dominance: simpler picture -- direct comparison with nucleon structure models SU(6) symmetry, broken SU(6), diquark • x 1 region amenable to pQCD analysis -- hadron helicity conservation? • Clean connection with QCD, via lattice moments • Input for search for physics beyond the Standard Model at high energy collider -- evolution: high x at low Q2 low x at high Q2 -- small uncertainties amplified -- example: HERA ‘anomaly’ (1998) • Input to nuclear, high energy physics calculations
