Abstract
The availability of high quality tensor polarized solid targets is an important milestone for the
Jefferson Lab physics program, and is necessary for several high-impact approved experiments as
well as other future studies on the tensor structure of deuterons. Deuterium, commonly employed
in experiments as deuterated ammonia (ND3), can be relatively easily vector polarized with the
help of Dynamic Nuclear Polarization (DNP). However, reliably enhancing tensor polarization
remains an area of active research. The most successful technique involves the usage of focused
high-power RF, used in several relevant techniques such as semi-selective RF (ssRF) hole-burning
and adiabatic fast-passage (AFP). In this proceedings we discuss the current status of the new RF
system in the polarized target lab at the University of New Hampshire.
