Title: The Mirror Nuclei 3H and 3He Program at JLab

Abstract

Jefferson Lab plans to carry out in the near future a group of four experiments involving the mirror nuclei 3H and 3He, using electron beam energies of up to 11 GeV. Our experiments aim to, (A) extract the deep inelastic neutron to proton structure function ratio F$$n\atop{2}$$F$$p\atop{2}$$ (and u / d quark distributions) for 0.2 ≤ x ≤ 0.9 , (B) study the isospin structure of two-nucleon and search for three-nucleon Short Range Correlations (SRC) for x < 3 , (C) measure the proton momentum distribution of both nuclei at $x = 1.2$ to further our understanding of SRCs in the few-body and (D) extract the charge radii of both nuclei at Q2 ≤ 0.1 GeV2.
