Title The hypernuclear physics program at Jefferson Lab
Abstract Missing mass spectroscopy of ? hypernuclei using the (e,e?K+) reaction has been performed in the past at the Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility (Jefferson Lab) by several experiments in Halls A and C. A new experimental campaign is expected to start running in 2026 in Hall C and to provide the first study of the isospin dependence in medium-mass hyperisotopes by populating 40-?-K and 48-?-K using isotopically enriched calcium targets [E12-15-008]. During this campaign, it will be possible to study ? interactions in nuclear matter using a lead target [E12-20-013]. Solid-state targets made of lithium, beryllium, boron [LOI12-23-013], and aluminum [LOI12-23-016] are considered to be included in the campaign. The use of the HKS and HES spectrometers together with thin target foils and high beam currents leads to a sub-MeV energy resolution, significantly better than in hadron beam experiments. Valuable information on few-body hyperon systems would be gained if helium targets we
