EIC Detector Overview
- Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility (TJNAF), Newport News, VA (United States)
The Electron Ion Collider will have two interaction regions that can be instrumented with detectors. Here, the first region will be instrumented as part of the project and needs to be capable of delivering the physics that has been outlined by the National Academy of Sciences and ready at the start of beam commissioning near the end of this decade. Plans for a second complementary detector to be located at a second interaction region are already in progress and will hopefully come to fruition just few years after the first detector comes online. While the basic parameters of these detectors are being selected using conventional approaches, the optimization of the detectors is already being enhanced by making use of advanced optimization techniques.
