Probing the quark-gluon structure of matter, and probing for new physics beyond the Standard Model.
The Medium Energy Physics (MEP) group has a multifaceted program consisting of three main pillars: the study of hadronic matter in terms of fundamental particles and interactions, the emergence of nuclear structure, and a search for signatures of physics beyond the Standard Model of particle physics. The MEP group has a proven track record of leadership in conceiving and executing novel, high-impact nuclear physics experiments through the development and exploitation of cutting-edge technologies in line with the mission of DOE-NP.
