Colleagues,<br>
<br>
It is our great pleasure to officially announce that the
International Workshop on Partial Wave Analyses and Advanced Tools
for Hadron Spectroscopy (PWA13/ATHOS8) will be held at William
& Mary in Williamsburg, Virginia, USA between May 28 and June
1, 2024. It will be organized as a collaboration between the
Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility and William &
Mary.<br>
<br>
PWA13/ATHOS8 is a joint meeting combining the 13th International
Workshop on Pion-Nucleon Partial Wave Analysis and the
Interpretation of Baryon Resonances (PWA) and the 8th Workshop on
Partial Wave Analysis Tools for Hadron Spectroscopy (ATHOS). The
purpose of this workshop series is to bring together experimental
and theoretical groups working in hadron spectroscopy. The
emphasis of the scientific program is on methods and tools for
data analysis, addressing challenges that are common in the study
of excited baryons, mesons, and the recently discovered exotic
hadrons in the light- as well as in the heavy-quark sector. A
special focus is put on the application of innovative statistical
methods like artificial intelligence and machine learning (AI/ML)
to the field of amplitude analysis. An active participation of
early-career scientists (students and postdoctoral researchers) in
the discussions is encouraged.<br>
<br>
We cordially invite you to participate in this workshop and submit
a contribution through the website:

<br>
Please find the first circular with additional information on the
workshop attached to this mail. Feel free to distribute this
message in your collaborations or forward it to other individuals
who may be interested. We apologize in advance if you receive this
announcement more than once.<br>
<br>
We hope to welcome you in Virginia next Spring!<br>
