The physics program accessible to a positron beam at CEBAF energies is rich with a variety of possible experiments addressing the physics of different reaction channels: deeply virtual Compton scattering, two-photon exchange physics, potential physics scenarios beyond the Standard Model, and others processes where understanding would benefit of a comparison between electron and positron probes.

These different possibilities will be collected into a Positron White Paper (PWP) which will be made publicly available by the PAC meeting. We are asking every person interested in the study of a specific physics channel with a positron beam at JLab, to contribute to the PWP with a description of their ideal experiment in no more than 4 pages. Proposals should expect a baseline of unpolarized positron beams with 1µA maximum intensity, and polarized positron beams with 100nA with a minimal polarization of 40%. As the conceptual design of the source and integration develop, efforts will be made to increase these values.
