Prof. Jianwei Qiu (Jefferson Lab)10/09/2018, 10:20Spin Physics in Nuclear Reactions and NucleiPlenary Sessions (for INVITED PLENARY TALKS only!)Spin is an intrinsic and quantum property of all particles that we know of, including the elementary particles of the standard model, as well as composite particles, such as nucleons and nuclei that make up essentially all the visible matter in the universe. Without the spin, our world would not be the same as what we have seen and lived in. In this talk, I will briefly review the spin...Go to contribution page

Dr Frank Rathmann (Forschungszentrum Jรผlich)10/09/2018, 12:10Fundamental Symmetries and Spin Physics Beyond the Standard ModelPlenary Sessions (for INVITED PLENARY TALKS only!)The Standard Model (SM) of Particle Physics is not capable to account for the apparent matter-antimatter asymmetry of our Universe. Physics beyond the SM is required and is either probed by employing highest energies (e.g., at LHC), or by striving for ultimate precision and sensitivity (e.g., in the search for electric dipole moments). Permanent electric dipole moments (EDMs) of particles...Go to contribution page

Prof. Tomotsugu Wakasa (Kyushu University)11/09/2018, 09:00Spin Physics in Nuclear Reactions and NucleiPlenary Sessions (for INVITED PLENARY TALKS only!)One of the primary goals of nuclear physics is to describe nuclei and their dynamics in terms of interactions between nuclear constituents. In addition, high-precision experimental data and sophisticated theoretical calculations are very important for other research fields such astrophysics and neutrino physics. In this talk, three topics will be discussed by comparing experimental data...Go to contribution page

Dr Pasquale Di Nezza (LNF)12/09/2018, 09:40Future Facilities and ExperimentsPlenary Sessions (for INVITED PLENARY TALKS only!)New physics frontiers can be opened by using internal gas targets at the LHC. The various collision systems like pp, pA and PbA at energies varying from โs_NN=72 GeV to โs=115 GeV, and the implicit forward kinematic of the collisions, make accessible a broad programme of measurements, from the large-x frontier for particle and astroparticle physics to spin and heavy-ion physics. A first step...Go to contribution page

Prof. David Hertzog (University of Washington)12/09/2018, 10:20Fundamental Symmetries and Spin Physics Beyond the Standard ModelPlenary Sessions (for INVITED PLENARY TALKS only!)Conventional wisdom suggests that new particles should exist as part of highly anticipated Standard Model extensions. Further, the discovery tool is expected to be an energy-frontier collider, where new particles are produced directly among the debris of the highest-energy pp collisions. The Higgs discovery affirmed this technique; although it has not signaled new physics (yet), it...Go to contribution page

The very first observation of beam self-polarization followed in 1968 at ACO in Orsay and confirmed at Novosibirsk VEPP-2 in 1970. However in particular at high energy, e+-- polarization is not...Go to contribution page

Gunar Schnell (University of the Basque Country UPV/EHU)12/09/2018, 12:10Nucleon Helicity StructurePlenary Sessions (for INVITED PLENARY TALKS only!)Three decades ago it became that the simple quark model approach for the proton failed in describing the spin structure โ the spin contribution from quarks, as measured by the European Muon Collaboration (EMC), came out small, by far insufficient to explain the proton spin of 1/2. The experiment utilized the polarized muon beam from CERNโs SPS, which is naturally polarized originating from the...Go to contribution page
