[Cuga] First Circular, workshop "Towards improved hadron femtography with hard exclusive reactions, 2023"- A message from Marie Boër

[Lorelei Carlson]

First Circular, workshop "Towards improved hadron femtography with hard exclusive reactions, 2023"

Venue: Virginia Tech, physics department in Blacksburg, Virginia, USA
Date: August 7th- 11th, 2023

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 respective exclusive processes to GPDs, GTMDs, spin structure and gravitational form factors. Opportunities at low and high x, at fixed-target and collider experiments will also be discussed.

In order to facilitate informal discussions and the development of new ideas, this workshop will be exclusively in-person (though remote attendance as an audience, only, is possible with a free registration). Ample time will be given for discussions, with dedicated round tables for each topic.
A participation fee of $250 will be collected to contribute to the costs of the organization. This covers the workshop dinner, the reception and the social activity. At the discretion of the organizers, limited support to as many people as possible will be provided, with priority for early-career participants and participants from low-income countries, who can apply for reimbursement of the fee.

All who are interested in the study of exclusive processes are encouraged to submit an abstract. The deadline for abstract submission is June 20th, 2023.

Sessions include:
Hard Exclusive Compton-like Reactions
Hard Exclusive Meson Production
Meson Structure
Nuclei and transition GPDs
Theoretical progresses
Models and Interpretations
Current and future experiments
Computing and AI/ML techniques
Lattice QCD
Hardware for exclusive measurements
