New trends in hadronic physics at JLab

The 2014-scheduled 12 GeV upgrade of JLab will allow for a whole new range of experiments, extending our knowledge of nucleon structure. The program for the nucleon form factors and elastic scattering parity-violating asymmetry experiments is presented here, along with the benefits of the new large-acceptance forward spectrometer (Super BigBite, SBS) to be installed in Hall A.
