This workshop will focus on the continuing development of the scientific case for a 22 GeV upgrade to CEBAF made possible by recent novel advances in accelerator technology. CEBAF’s envisioned capabilities, at the highest luminosities, will enable exciting opportunities that give scientists the full suite of tools necessary to comprehensively understand how QCD builds hadronic matter in the valence region. Through this workshop, JLab and its user community will continue to build the science case with descriptions and concrete projections for experiments that would become possible with an upgrade.
We encourage our users and others interested to submit talks and ideas on the scientific topics listed below.
Physics Topics:
- Charmed and light hadron spectroscopy
- Structure of hadrons: Form Factors, Parton Distribution Functions, TMDs, GPDs, Fragmentation Functions, Fracture Functions
- QCD in Nuclei and associated Nuclear Modifications and Dynamics
- Low energy tests of the Standard Model and physics beyond the Standard Model
Deadline for abstracts:
October 31
