Welcome<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Following the site selection for construction of the U.S. Electron-Ion Collider research facility by the U.S. Department\u00a0of Energy (DOE) in early 2020<\/a>, the EIC Users Group led a year-long Yellow Report initiative to define the detector\u00a0design criteria needed to realize the EIC physics described in the EIC White Paper, supported by the National Academy\u00a0of Sciences. Using the Yellow Report as input, a Reference Detector concept was presented at the recently held DOE Critical\u00a0Decision-1 review of the EIC. Next.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A Call for EIC Detector Proposals<\/a> has been issued by DOE & BNL\/JLab on March 6, 2021, with an expected proposal submission deadline on December 1st, 2021. The EICUG community’s strong preference for two detectors has led to multiple exciting detector initiatives. We invite all interested groups and consortia to come together to plan for a detector inspired by the Yellow Report detector concept based on a new central detector magnet up to 3T. We are actively planning to evolve this effort into a concrete detector proposal and start the process of forming a new collaboration for IP6. Please contact us if you wish to join us!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
