Description
Jefferson Lab's Continuous Electron Beam Accelerator Facility (CEBAF) has been delivering high polarization and high current electron beams for fixed target nuclear physics experiment for more than two decades. Plans are now being developed to use the CEBAF accelerator for providing highly polarized positrons to the experimental halls. This work builds on the successful Polarized Electrons for Polarized Positrons (PEPPo) project which demonstrated the possibility of using polarized electrons for making a polarized positron source. In this talk will give an overview of the planned polarized positron source as well as an overview of the science that has been proposed to be done with this upgrade to the Jefferson Lab accelerator.
