| Abstract: | The BLAST (Bates Large Acceptance Spectrometer Toroid) experiment has been carried out at the MIT-Bates Linear Accelerator Center to study
the spin-dependent response of inclusive and exclusive electron
scattering. The data have been used to extract precision results for
the proton elastic form factor ratio GEp /GMp, the elastic form
factors of the neutron, electromagnetic structure observables of the
deuteron such as the tensor analyzing powers T20 and T21 and spin
correlation parameters T10 and T11, polarized structure functions of
the quasielastic deuteron breakup as well as single and doubly
polarized pion electroproduction in the delta resonance region. In
this presentation, an overview of the experiment and the obtained
results is given. The seminar will conclude with an outlook on a
possible future application of the BLAST apparatus in the proposed
OLYMPUS experiment at DESY to definitively determine the two-photon
exchange effect in elastic lepton-proton scattering. Upcoming Seminars: Jan 16 Wally Greenberg (Maryland) Jan 23 Krishna Kumar (UMass) Feb 13 Xiaodong Ji [Tenative] (Maryland) Feb 20 Dennis Sivers (Portland Phys. Inst.) Mar 20 Dieter Dreschel (Mainz) Mar 20 Peter Winter (PSI) |
