Jefferson Lab: The Next Ten Years and Beyond

Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility

Jefferson Lab had its 25^th anniversary in 2009. After successful operation of its 6 GeV continuous wave superconducting radiofrequency accelerator for a decade, the laboratory is constructing an upgrade to double the energy of the accelerator to 12 GeV, and to extend its experimental capabilities. The result will be an exciting physics program, which will extend well beyond 2020.
