1. Introduction• JLab Experiment E04-108: GEp-III and E04-019: GEp-2γ • These two experiments use the same polarization method to measure
proton form factor ratio in ep elastic scattering process.• Experiment GEp-2 γ finished Oct. 2007-Jan. 2008. GEp-III is running.

What’s the explanation of the discrepancy between polarization and Rosenbluth data? 2γ?
What will the proton f.f. be at higher Q2?

• TF1-0 type lead glass, 12-stage Russian FEU-84 PMT, coupled by 1cm soft optical ‘cookie’.
• Protvino part: 1024 bars of 3.8x3.8x45cm3 lead glass. Cover 1.479m2
• RCS part: 720 bars of 4.0x4.0x40cm3 lead glass. Cover 1.152m2
• BigCal goal: identify elastic event, reduce high background rate

• Detector issues:
• FPP• The alignment of FPP to HMS track. Optimization of FPP DC can significantly reduce false asymmetry.
• BigCal• Radiation damage made BigCal lead glass “dark” and the gain of signal drop, the energy and position resolution
get worse.• About 2 weeks low power UV light curing during the shutdown of accelerator (without take out phototubes).• The lead glass recovered to about 70% of the beginning of the experiment.
Before experiment After experiment UV curing
Note: Low power UV light curing, did not take out phototube from back side.
4. Summary• Detectors works well as designed• GEp-2 γ finished and data analysis is going on
• GEp-III one kinematics data point is done.
• Focal plane asymmetry at beam energy: 2.847Gev shows difference between elastic and inelastic, resonance state near this energy region maybe the explanation of this discrepancy.
