Scientific Topics
The conference will cover topical issues at the frontier of hadron structure and explore outstanding open questions. Topics discussed will include:
-
QCD at high parton densities and small-x evolution: BFKL, Color Glass Condensate.
-
Quark and gluon content of nucleons and nuclei: (nuclear) parton distribution functions, hadron and jet fragmentation.
-
Spin and 3D structure: helicity distributions, transverse momentum dependent (TMDs) and generalized parton distributions (GPDs).
-
The properties of colored probes in cold nuclear matter: modifications of quarkonia production, jet formation and evolution, hadronization.
-
Complementarity and connections of EIC physics with p+p, p+A and A+A collisions: high-pt processes, diffraction, multi-parton interactions, quark-gluon plasma, colored probes in hot nuclear matter.
