Description
The Electron Ion Collider (EIC) is planned to be the next large U.S. project for nuclear physics research. It will be the world’s first collider with polarized electron- and light ion beams, and capable of accelerating nuclei up to uranium. In this talk, the Jefferson Lab full-acceptance detector concept will be presented, with physics emphasis on integrated particle identification (PID) system. The detector was designed to detect and identify the complete final state, including all partonic and nuclear fragments. Excellent PID in the central detector is also needed for studying the current-jets, in particular through exclusive- and semi-inclusive processes, which allow for imaging of the 3D structure of the nucleon. It is also important for heavy-flavor.
