Dear Colleagues,
<br>
<br>
I send you the second circular of the KEK theory center workshop on
<br>
high-energy hadron physics with hadron beams.
<br>
<br>
We welcome your participation. Please register until December 6, 2009
<br>
if you are interested in participating in the workshop.
<br>
<br>
Best Regards, Shunzo Kumano (KEK)

<br>
<br>
The workshop on high-energy hadron physics with hadron beams will be
<br>
held from January 6 to January 8, 2010 at KEK, Tsukuba, Japan. This
<br>
workshop is intended to discuss topics on high-energy hadron physics
<br>
with the high-momentum hadron beams at J-PARC and related facilities
<br>
such as Fermilab, GSI-FAIR, and CERN-COMPASS. The J-PARC is an
<br>
accelerator complex with a 30 (50) GeV main ring for high-intensity
<br>
proton beam (<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext"
href="http://j-parc.jp/index-e.html">http://j-parc.jp/index-e.html</a>).
The Phase-1 construction
<br>
has already been completed, and the beam operation has started.
<br>
<br>
The workshop topics include
<br>
* hadron properties in nuclear medium,
<br>
* partonic structures of nucleon and nuclei,
<br>
* QCD and hard processes with hadron beams,
<br>
* other physics opportunities with polarized and unpolarized hadron
beams.
<br>
<br>
The goal of the workshop is to discuss exciting hadron physics programs
<br>
which can be pursued at J-PARC and other hadron facility. If you are
<br>
interested in participating in this workshop, please send the attached
<br>
registration form by email (and please register from a KEK web site
<br>
if you are Japanese). We have some funds to cover domestic travel and
<br>
local expenses for participants, particularly young researchers.

<br>
If you make the reservation from the above web page, the reduced
<br>
rate is not available. In any case, rooms would not be available

*** For Japanese participants ***
<br>
You may try to make a reservation at the Urban hotel.
<br>

if a room in the Urban hotel is not available or if you prefer
<br>
to stay at another hotel.
<br>
<br>
*** For graduate students ***
<br>
Even if the KEK support is provided, it is not sufficient
<br>
enough to cover the hotel expense at the Urban hotel.
<br>
You may consider to stay, for example, at
<br>
Tsukuba Kenshu center TEL: 029-851-5152
