Manpower

Faculty

Prof. Bill Briscoe, 40% of research time on JEF/GlueX, 30% on CLAS, 10% on MUSE, 10% on Mainz.
Prof. Axel Schmidt, 25% of research time on GlueX, 45% on CLAS, and 30% on Hall C.
Prof. Igor Strakovsky, 35% of research time on GlueX and 35% on KLF, 20% on CLAS, in particular, FROST data analyses, and 10% on PWAs and SAID DB support.

Responsibilities

Physics Interests

Meson photoproduction, particularly the pi0, eta, eta’, a0(980) above resonance regime.
Omega-baryon photoproduction.
J/psi photoproduction at the threshold.
Short-range correlations.
Eta' decay.

Disclosure of Other Research Activities

Profs. Briscoe, Schmidt, and Strakovsky also work on the GlueX, CLAS, and SRC Collaborations studying baryon and meson spectroscopy and short-range correlations. However, because the production mechanisms and decay channels are different, there does not seem to be a conflict of interest with the ongoing work in the KLF Collaboration.

 == Responsibilities ==
-<!-- # Igor Strakovsky involves in an interpretation of gp-->pi0p, gp-->eta p, and gp-->a0(980)p sigma-beam asymmetries at 9 GeV.
-# Igor Strakovsky involves in an interpretation of the J/psi photoproduction at the threshold (he made an essential contribution to the first GlueX paper).
-# <font color=red>Stuart Fegan is responsible for the TAGH calibration work, just timing alignment and the timewalk. Then Olga Cortes picked up this responsible for these works when Stuart left GW.</font>
-# Olga Cortes is responsible for the analysis of the Omega-baryon. Now, she will do analysis of 2017 data to look for an Omega signal.
-# Olga Cortes was responsible for the CDC monitoring which is done in 2018.
-# Olga Cortes is involved in the analysis of low-energy data collected fall 2018.
-# Olga Cortes is responsible for the analysis of the Dalitz plot for the eta’-> eta pi pi channel.
-# Olga Cortes was responsible for the CDC monitoring.
-# Olga Cortes is part of the Committee for the analysis note of \Lambda(1520).
-# Olga Cortes is part of the GlueX Diversity and inclusion group.
-#<font color=red>Stuart Fegan and Olga Cortes made an essential contribution to the GlueX instrumental paper “The GlueX Beam Line and Detector” submitted to NIM. In particular, Stuart had commenced through his editorial responsibility for the relevant sections of this NIM paper.</font>
-#<font color=red>Stuart Fegan had played a leading role in the introduction of the technique of Longitudinal Phase Space (Van Hove) analysis to the wider GlueX community. He intends to collate four particle Van Hove studies of GlueX data and MC studies into an internal memo showcasing the technique, and explore the possibility of external publication, along the lines of a three-particle paper published by Peter Pauli et al.</font>
-#<font color=red>Stuart Fegan and Olga Cortes are drafting Notes with technical information on hardware and commissioning of the GlueX beamline, in order to bring it to the standard of a NIM or JINST article.</font> -->
-# Phoebe Sharp is responsible for the PS calibration.
-# Peter Solazo is responsible for the a0 project - advisors Briscoe and Strakovsky.
-# Olga Cortes and Peter Solazo are responsible for testing bases+preams for FCAL-II.
-# Olga Cortes is supervising GWU summer students (2022 and 2023) who helping to construct and install FCAL-II.
-# Briscoe and Strakovsky are working on FCAL-II project as needed.
