The EdgeConRVA conference sponsored by from the Richmond Technology Council (RVATech) is scheduled for Friday, Feb. 17, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. in Richmond, VA. The conference will discuss best practices in modern technology with case studies and speakers. One of JLab’s own, Marla Schuchman, will be presenting her talk, titled “Your Neighborhood National Lab: Why Entrepreneurs and Established Companies Need to Pay...
This workshop aims at bringing together theorists and experimentalists to discuss the current status and potential directions for the physics of hard exclusive reactions, in particular for interpretations about hadron imaging. Subjects covered during the workshop will include hard exclusive single-meson and associated-meson production, 'novel' Compton-like reactions beyond DVCS and the sensitivity of the...
The American Physical Society (APS) hosts its annual April Meeting "Quarks to Cosmos" as an opportunity for APS members, physicists, and other scientists to come together to discuss their research and current events relevant to the scientific community. The meeting encompasses a broad range of physics spanning astrophysics, particle physics, nuclear physics, and gravitation. It brings together researchers from...
Over the last decade, a number of explanations for the modification of nucleon quark distributions in nuclei (the EMC effect) have been put forth, leveraging information from the 6 GeV JLab program. In particular, new information on the A dependence in light nuclei and the correlation with the observation of high-momentum nucleons born in two nucleon correlations (2N SRCs). By the time of the workshop, several...
The 2023 Tri-Institute Summer School on Elementary Particles (TRISEP) will be held June 19-30, 2023 in Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics, Waterloo, ON, Canada.
TRISEP is an international summer school organized jointly by the Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics, SNOLAB, and TRIUMF Canada's laboratory for particle and nuclear physics. TRISEP will feature lectures by leading experts in the field of particle physics in its broadest sense and is designed to be very interactive with ample time for questions, discussions and interaction with the speakers. The school is...
We kindly ask all attendees to provide their full name when entering the event. If attendees have questions for the speaker, please introduce yourself before asking the question.
Speaker: Bijaya Acharya (Oak Ridge)
Title: Nuclear electroweak structure in chiral effective field theory
Abstract: Chiral effective field theory provides nuclear interactions and electroweak currents as controlled approximations to quantum chromodynamics and electroweak theory at momenta relevant for nuclear processes. In this talk, I will outline our recent progress that has enabled...
