Title: The precision Frontier for Gluon Saturation
Abstract: A major pillar of the Electron-Ion Collider (EIC) scientific program is the discovery and characterization of a new regime of nuclear matter, known as color glass condensate (CGC), dominated by a highly dense and saturated system of gluons. Predictions from the CGC...
Title: To the Issue of Geodesics and Torsion in the Theory of the Gravitation
Speaker: Yaroslav Derbenev
Abstract: A simple differential analysis of the issue of correspondence between notion of the geodesics in gravitation theory of GTR and straights of inertial motion in the Minkowski’ space-time discovers that, conventional certification of the geodesics in GTR is not compatible with the existence of the Riemann-Christoffel curvature tensor (RCT). We show that, a resolution of this crisis consists of a natural extension of the Christoffels in the dynamic...
Science Bowl is a competition is open to middle school teams from across Virginia. The middle school competition will take place on Saturday, March 2, 2024.
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a rapidly developing field focused on computational technologies that can be trained, with data, to augment or automate human skill. A subset of AI is machine learning (ML), which is usually grouped into supervised, unsupervised and reinforcement learning. Nuclear Physics is big data: the gigantic data volumes produced in modern experiments now and over the next decade are reaching scales and complexities that require computational methods for tasks such as big data analytics, design of new detectors, controls, and calibration systems. AI has the potential...
Norfolk Waterside Marriott

Norfolk, VA 23510
Norfolk, Virginia is called the city on the water, which can easily be reached via plane, car, bus, or train. If traveling by car, plan for the many bridges and tunnels that you may encounter, as well as potential tolls. Summarized PDF details can be found here.
Due to the current COVID-19 pandemic emergency,
the HUGS 2020 school has been CANCELED.
We will do our best to organize HUGS 2021 in the late Spring or Summer of next year, extending the number of students we can accept into the program. Keep an eye open for the HUGS 2021 announcement! ...
Feb. 11: CEBAF Center (CC) L102
Feb. 18: CC L102 Rescheduled to March 23 and relocated to CC F113: Long-form writing (reports, plans, etc.) - Original Date: Feb. 25 Rescheduled to March 30 and relocated to CC F113:Short-form writing (memos, emails, etc.) - Original Date: March 3
The English language, it’s been said, is “complex and weird” — but writing doesn’t have to be. That goes for any form of writing here at Jefferson Lab. The first two of these four lunch-and-learn workshops will range from “universal truths” (on writing in general) to useful tools in grammar, syntax and more.
The latter two rescheduled sessions will cover guidance and tips on specific writing types, both long form (reports, plans, etc.) and short form (memo letters, emails, etc.).
Altogether, they’ll equip you for better writing…no matter where you work.
The First Backward-Angle (u-channel) Physics Workshop will be held virtually, on September 21-23, with the support of Jefferson Lab and JSA.
The objectives of the workshop are as follows:
* Offer a platform to connect scattered experiment and theory efforts together, thus, potentially forming small backward-angle physics working groups.
* Generate discussions on the implications the backward-angle physics and probe the physics case for a systematic backward-angle physics research
program.
* Inspire future backward-angle physics data mining or dedicated studies...
Annually since HUGS 2015, the best student presentations are awarded a prize based on a peer judging system, and the winners' names kept on our Wall of Fame for eternity (or the lifetime of the internet).
The seminars are judged by the student peers and other seminar session attendees (organizers, other JLab students, postdocs, and senior researchers) based on 3 criteria: Organization of Slides; Oral Presentation; and Command of Topic. Posters are similarly judged by the student peers, as well as by a judges panel composed of JLab postdocs and senior researchers....
