Manpower

Faculty

  • Prof. Igor Strakovsky, 50% of research time on KLF, 20% on GlueX, 20% on CLAS, and 10% on PWAs and SAID DB support.
  • Prof. Bill Briscoe, 15% of research time on KLF, 35% on JEF/GlueX, 30% on CLAS, 10% on MUSE.
  • Prof. Axel Schmidt, 15% of research time on KLF, 20% of research time on GlueX, 35% on CLAS, and 30% on Hall C.

PostDocs

  • We submitted a Supplement Request for a postdoctoral fellow to address critical software tasks for the K-Long Facility upgrade at Jefferson Lab. These tasks include implementing new KLF equipment into simulation, modeling the response of new detectors, adapting reconstruction algorithms, and establishing new methods of calibration for use with a pulsed Kaon beam. This work is critical to passing upcoming ERR-II, and furthermore cannot be covered by current group personnel.


Responsibilities

  1. Igor Strakovsky involves in...
  2. William Briscoe involves in...
  3. Axel Schmidt involves in...
  4. Olga Cortes involves in...

Physics Interests

  1. Formation of \Sigma* and \Lambda* hyperons with K-long beam interacting with cryo LH2 and LD2 targets.
  2. Exploring reactions with final state K\Xi reaction for a search of \Xi* hyperons.
  3. Search for exited \Omega* hyperons in a KK\Omega* final states.
  4. The possiblity studies for \beta decay of K-long with the Flux Monitor of KLF.

Disclosure of Other Research Activities

Profs. Strakovsky, Briscoe, and Schmidt 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.
