6. 12 GeV “White Paper” • Preparation for 2012 NSAC activity • Update physics case for “NSAC audience” • Small group of writers/editors

7. Outline • Physics Opportunities with the 12 GeV Upgrade • at Jefferson Lab • Overview (3) –Pennington/Ent/BMcK • Meson Spectroscopy and Structure (5) – Meyer, Dudek • Nucleon Structure and Spectroscopy (10) - Meziani, Richards • QCD and Nuclei (5) – Weinstein, Miller • The Standard Model and Beyond (5) – Kumar, Essig • Appendix A: Experimental Equipment (10) - Young

8. Charge from Lab Director Jefferson Lab Strategic Plan The goal is to produce a concise document, perhaps not more than 20 pages, which would start with a vision statement and a set of goals for the laboratory as a whole and would then delve deeper into what we do, developing visions, goals, and outcomes at multiple levels. The intent is that we engage our owners, both the science and operations components of the lab, the laboratory leadership more broadly, the  staff, and the user community, essentially all of our stakeholders, in the process.

9. From Our Website Jefferson Lab's mission is to provide forefront scientific facilities, opportunities and leadership essential for discovering the fundamental nature of nuclear matter, to partner with industry to apply its advanced technology, and to serve the nation and its communities through education and public outreach, all with uncompromising excellence in environment, health and safety.

10. Jefferson Laboratory Strategic Plan Strategic Plan Decisions, planning LDRD DOE SC Annual Lab Plan JSA (contractor assurance, risk registry, …)

11. Strategic Plan Status • Strategic Plan development is getting started • Scheduled town meetings with Physics, Theory, Accelerator, FEL divisions (will schedule one for “Technology” soon) • Will include other stakeholders in the process: users, lab operations, etc. • Lab leadership retreat in Spring 2012 • Report to Users at June meeting • A comprehensive plan is the goal: < 1 year

12. Town Meeting • Mission Statement of your Division – What is or should be the mission statement of your division? • Scope of Current Activities – What is it that your division does, what is your current scope of work? • Unique capabilities - What facilities/capabilities/expertise does your group offer that is unique, world class? • Synergy – Discuss how you think your division contributes to the missions of other parts of the lab. Can you do more? • Vision for the Future - What do you see your division contributing to/doing in the future? What could you be doing? • 5 year • 10 year • 20 Year • Beyond • Lost or missed opportunities - Were there expansion opportunities/synergies that you missed or that you have not been able to capitalize on? What were they, and what was the obstacle that kept you from realizing that opportunity? Are there lessons to be learned from that experience? Are there likely future opportunities in the same or similar areas? • Required New Initiatives - What research, projects or preliminaries would you need to pursue or put in place to achieve the visions above? This should include internal to the lab as well as external.
