[Cuga] School on Few-Body Physics: Nuclear Physics from QCD- A message from Tobias Frederico

[Lorelei Carlson]

Dear Colleagues,

We would like to call your attention to the ICTP-SAIFR/ExoHad School on Few-Body Physics: Nuclear Physics from QCD, from October 16 to 25, 2024.

The school will consist of four 4-hour courses on the topics of relativistic scattering theory, effective field theories (EFTs), lattice methods (both EFT and QCD), and finite-volume physics. Included in this course are practical exercise sessions to apply these tools to examples common for the study of few-body hadron and nuclear processes. Additionally, there will be a virtual three-day course before the school to prepare the participants on the fundamentals of non-relativistic scattering theory, particle and nuclear physics, and field theory.

Lecturers (virtual - October 16-18)

Lucas Madeira (USP São Carlos, Brazil): Non-relativistic Quantum Scattering
Felipe Ortega-Gama ( Lawrence Berkeley Lab, USA): Basic Particle Physics, Lagrangians, & Feynman Rules

Lecturers (in-person - October 21-25 @ ICTP-SAIFR, Sao Paulo, Brazil)

Sebastian Dawid (University of Washington, USA): Relativistic Scattering Theory
Amy Nicholson (University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, USA): Lattice QCD
André Walker-Loud (Lawrence Berkley Lab, USA): Effective Field Theory
Andrew Jackura (William & Mary, USA) and Raúl Briceño (U.C. Berkeley, USA): Finite-Volume physics

Opportunity of paid internship at the University of California, Berkeley: At the end of the school, students will take an exam on the topics covered. Based on their exam scores, the top student(s) may be chosen to receive an all-expenses paid research internship from June-August 2025 at the University of California in Berkeley, California, USA. Paid expenses include lodging, travel, and visa fees. The student will be matched with a research mentor, who will guide them during their two-month internship. Furthermore, the student will be invited to participate in the next summer school and workshop hosted by the ExoHad collaboration, which is sponsored by the U.S. Department of Energy.

There is no registration fee and limited funds are available for travel and local expenses.
