Newport News, VA
Please join us for the 2019 Jefferson Lab Users Organization Annual Meeting, June 24-26. Registration is now open.
The theme of this year's program is "JLab Science Around the World.” Each day has a sub-theme, and these are: “an international user community,” “reaching the full potential of 12 GeV,” and “from 12 GeV to the EIC - toward CD-0,” setting the emphasis for each day.
The program includes a variety of physics talks, presentations from the User Group Board, laboratory management and funding agencies, and the winners of the thesis prize and the postdoc prize. Examples...
Title: Measurements of Single and Pair Production of Hadrons in Nuclear SIDIS in the CLAS Experiment
Abstract: I will present recent measurements of semi-inclusive deep-inelastic scattering measurements off nuclei with CLAS, in both single-hadron and double-hadron channels. I will describe how these measurements can constrain the interaction between quarks and cold nuclear matter, and also the nuclear modifications to transverse-momentum dependent parton-distribution functions. I will finalize by describing an upcoming eA...
Title: Generalized Parton Distributions Through Universal Moment Parameterization: The Gluonic Sector with Deeply Virtual J/ψ Production
Abstract: We present a further step toward a global extraction of gluon generalized parton distributions (GPDs). In our previous work we performed the first global analysis of quark GPDs by including lattice quantum chromodynamics (QCD) calculations, global fitted forward parton distribution functions (PDFs), form factors (FFs), and Deeply Virtual Compton Scattering (DVCS) measurements from...
Title: Functionalizing Advanced Materials and Surfaces in Superconducting RF
Speaker: Zeming Sun (Cornell University)
Abstract: Materials scientists seek to contribute to the development of next-generation SRF accelerating cavities. In this seminar, I present recent achievements and learnings in designing advanced SRF materials and surfaces, including Nb3Sn [1,2], ZrNb(CO) [3,4], and Au/Nb surface design [5,6]. Efforts involve electrochemical synthesis, phase transformation, and surface chemistry, which are closely coupled with superconducting properties, SRF...

Topic: They Scatter Neutrinos, Don’t They?
Abstract: Despite the crushing difficulty of using neutrinos as a probe, neutrino scattering experiments in the US and Japan have recently benefited from ever more intense neutrino beams, new schemes for building cost-effective, large, capable detectors, and dogged determination to run long enough to complete a thousand marathons. I’ll discuss recent some results and techniques, with a focus on the MINERvA experiment at Fermilab.
Science Bowl is a competition is open to high school teams from across Virginia. The high school competition will take place on Saturday, February 3, 2024.
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: Giovanni Chirilli (Regensburg University)
Title: High-Energy Behavior of Quark Non-Local Operator: Implications for Lattice Calculations
Abstract: Pseudo and quasi-PDFs are key tools to compute parton distribution functions (PDFs) directly on the lattice. However, using the lattice to make these calculations has its challenges. To get the Bjorken-x dependence from the...
The XVIth Quark Confinement and Hadron Spectrum Conference ("Confinement24") will take place at the Cairns Convention Centre in Cairns, Australia on 19-24 August, 2024.
This edition, organized together with the Asia-Pacific region QCD communities, will celebrate the conference's 30th anniversary.
