Schedule in FY08 delayed by another month, driven by need to install and commission(!) new cryo-moduyles, but otherwise it would have been limited by the budget available for 6 GeV operations.
This will remain for the outyears with possible additional constraints driven by the need for engineering and design manpower for 12 GeV and limitations in capital funds.

6 GeV Energy Recovery Plan
Today
Hall A collaboration meeting, Junr 21-22, 2007, 9Operated by the Jefferson Science Associates for the U.S. Department Of Energy

Long-Term Schedule
•Highly likely that CEBAF will be limited to ~30 weeks of beam on target in FY08 and following FYs as long as the budget continues as expected. This corresponds to a total of 4 months accelerator down per year.
•Based on these assumptions Hall A would still have a full year of running available for new proposals.
However, for the last 18+ months before the accelerator down we would have to run in parallel with Qweak at a fixed energy/pass of 1.1 GeV and possibly severe restrictions in the available current (I have suggested to Larry to run Qweak at 150 µA in stead of the requested 180 µA).
Also, resources, both capital and designers, will become scarcer as the 12 GeV activities increase.
•Larry has “predicted” that there will continue to be 6 GeV PACs until ~3 years prior to the 12 GeV shutdown. This would mean that there will be (at least) two more 6 GeV PACs (2008 and 2009).

LRP Recommendations
1.We recommend the completion of the 12 GeV Upgrade at Jefferson Lab. The Upgrade will enable new insights into the structure of the nucleon, the transition between the hadronic and quark/gluon descriptions of nuclei, and the nature of confinement.2.We recommend the construction of the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams, FRIB, a world-leading facility for the study of nuclear structure, reactions and astrophysics. Experiments with the new isotopes produced at FRIB will lead to a comprehensive description of nuclei, elucidate the origin of the elements in the cosmos, provide an understanding of matter in the crust of neutron stars, and establish the scientific foundation for innovative applications of nuclear science to society.3.We recommend a targeted program of experiments to investigate neutrino properties and fundamental symmetries. These experiments aim to discover the nature of the neutrino, yet unseen violations of time-reversal symmetry, and other key ingredients of the new standard model of fundamental interactions. Construction of a Deep Underground Science and Engineering Laboratory is vital to US leadership in core aspects of this initiative.4.The experiments at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider have discovered a new state of matter at extreme temperature and density - a quark-gluon plasma that exhibits unexpected, almost perfect liquid dynamical behavior. We recommend implementation of the RHIC II luminosity upgrade, together with detector improvements, to determine the properties of this new state of matter.

LRP Recommendation #1
We recommend the completion of the 12 GeV Upgrade at Jefferson Lab. The Upgrade will enable new insights into the structure of the nucleon, the transition between the hadronic and quark/gluon descriptions of nuclei, and the nature of confinement.
A fundamental challenge for modern nuclear physics is to understand the structure and interactions of nucleons and nuclei in terms of quantum chromodynamics. Jefferson Lab’s unique electron microscope has given the US leadership in addressing this challenge. Its first decade of research has already provided key insights into the structure of nucleons and the dynamics of finite nuclei.
Doubling the energy of this microscope will enable three-dimensional imaging of the nucleon, revealing hidden aspects of its internal dynamics. It will complete our understanding of the transition between the hadronic and quark/gluon descriptions of nuclei, and test definitively the existence of exotic hadrons, long-predicted by QCD as arising from quark confinement. Through the use of parity violation, it will provide low-energy probes of physics beyond the Standard Model, complementing anticipated measurements at the highest accessible energy scales.
