    On 9 February 1959 it was announced that the 1 GeV energy was reached by the Frascati synchrotron. This great achievement, considering the Italy of the post-war period, started the Frascati history on particle physics experiments and on development of particle accelerators and detectors. The synchrotron team then developed the accelerator concept by building the first electron and positrons...

    In this talk I will discuss photon measurements i) as tests of pQCD and
    used to tune PDFs ii) providing important information for BSM searches, and
    iii) related with the Higgs Boson. I will go over LHC and non-LHC results
    and give prospects for HL-LHC and beyond.

    Precision phenomenology at the LHC requires accounting for both higher-order QCD and electroweak corrections as well as for photon-initiated subprocesses. In this talk I summarise the development history concerning: the inclusion of electroweak effects in parton distribution functions, the evolution of PDF algorithms for the determination of the photon PDF during the past decade, and the...

    On the wake of the results obtained so far at the SPARC_LAB test-facility at LNF, we are currently investigating the possibility to design and build a new multi-disciplinary user-facility, equipped with a soft X-ray Free Electron Laser (FEL) driven by a ~1 GeV high brightness linac based on plasma accelerator modules. EuPRAXIA@SPARC_LAB is conceived as an innovative and evolutionary tool for...

    I discuss the possibilities for using the LHC as a photon colliding
    machine. The photon parton
    density is quite precisely known and I consider the
    implications for the LHC phenomenology. In addition, the colour singlet
    nature of the photon means that it can readily lead to exclusive or
    semi-exclusive events, with limited or no extra particle production in
    the final state. I will show...

    Understanding the properties of nuclear matter and its emergence through the underlying partonic structure and dynamics of quarks and gluons requires a new experimental facility in hadronic physics known as the Electron-Ion Collider (EIC). The EIC will address some of the most profound questions concerning the emergence of nuclear properties by precisely imaging gluons and quarks inside...

    We discuss recent highlights in SM photon physics at the LHC, new opportunities at its forthcoming high-luminosity runs, and perspectives for its possible high-energy upgrade and a future electron-ion collider (EIC). Particular emphasis is put on the role of photoproduction processes in understanding the nuclear structure and interactions at high energies and on searches for photon-like...
