Snowmass2021 Theory Frontier: Theory Meets the Lab

We review how theorists have been instrumental in launching and developing new experiments in the last decade, and comment on the challenges and opportunities for this program to continue to thrive going forward. This whitepaper is a solicited contribution to the Snowmass2021 Theory Frontier.

Nuclear Transparency from Quasi-elastic ¹²C(e, e'p) scattering reaction up to Q2 = 14.2 (GeV/c)2 in Hall C at Jefferson Lab

Color Transparency (CT) is a unique prediction of Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) where the final (and/or initial) state interactions of hadrons with the nuclear medium are suppressed for exclusive processes at high momentum transfers. While this phenomenon has been observed for mesons, there has never been a conclusive observation for baryons. A clear signal of CT for baryons would be the first evidence of baryons fluctuating to a small size in the nucleus, and the onset would show the transition from nucleon-meson picture to quark-gluon degrees of freedom. The experiment E1206107, searching for the onset of CT in protons was completed in Hall C at Jefferson Laboratory (JLab) using the upgraded 12 GeV e- beam. It used the High Momentum Spectrometer (HMS) and the new Super High Momentum spectrometer (SHMS) in coincidence to measure the e- + ¹²C ? e-' + p + X reaction in quasi-elastic kinematics. Data were collected on a ¹²C target over the range of Q2 = 8 - 14.3 (GeV/c)2, covering the region where a previous p + A ? p' + p + X experiment at Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL) had observed an enhancement. Proton Transparency (PT) was extracted from these data. A rise in the PT as a function of Q2 (defined as the square of the negative of the 4-momentum transfer by the scattered electron) is predicted to be a signature of the onset of CT. Our data showed no significant increase and consistent with the traditional nuclear physics calculation. This dissertation discusses the theory and implementation of the CT experiment, summarizes the data analysis and presents results on hydrogen normalization and nuclear transparency.

2.3.3.404 - National Lab and University Collaboration for MHK Instrumentation and Data Processing Tools

Field and laboratory validation, testing, demonstration, and operation are critical steps for increasing the technology readiness level of marine energy (ME) converters because they provide high-quality testing and performance data that are critical information used to feed all aspects of technology development. This project, in partnership with industry, enables the marine and hydrokinetic energy (MHK) community to reliably and efficiently collect, process, manage, and share quality data by facilitating access to and development of instrumentation, guidelines and data processing/QA tools. Under this project, open-source data processing code (MHKiT) and tools (ME Data Pipeline, MRE Code Hub, PRIMRE Code Catalog), instrumentation (loads measurements), data acquisition systems (miniDAQ), and measurement guidance tools (Telesto, high EMI guidance) were developed to facilitate the collection and processing of quality laboratory and field data. Overall, this project is intended to improve the quality of the data collected during laboratory and field demonstration projects by standardizing the collection and processing techniques, as well as by improving access to instrumentation, code, and measurement guidance. Quality data will, in turn, lead to improved knowledge capture following ME device testing.
