[Cuga] u-channel Physics Workshop announcement

[Jodi Patient]

Dear Colleagues,

We are pleased to announce that the First Backward-Angle (u-channel) Physics
Workshop will be held September 21-22 at Jefferson Lab, Newport News, VA.

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,
  including the JLab 12 GeV program, and PANDA/FAIR.
* Discuss the feasibility of including backward-angle physics in the EIC
  scientific program.

The scientific program is expected to comprise roughly 15 talks, followed by a
group discussion on the Tuesday afternoon, which we hope can lead to an
eventual white paper on u-channel physics.  A social dinner is planned for the
evening of Monday, September 21.

More detailed information, as it is finalized, will be found at the meeting
website:

Please mark your calendars, and do not hesitate to contact any of us if you are
interested in contributing a talk or participating in the discussions.

We hope to see you there!

The program committee:
Wenliang Li, billlee at jlab.org
Justin Stevens, jrsteven at jlab.org
