[Nuclear] Fwd: Baryons 2016 Conference

[Lamiaa El Fassi]

Dear NPWG'ers,

I am forwarding you a call to submit abstracts to the upcoming Baryons 2016
conference that will be held on May 16-20, 2106 at Florida state university.
Since the scientific program (this link
<https://baryons2016.physics.fsu.edu/indico/event/0/program>) of this
conference is covering various topic, it would be nice to have
contributions from the active NPWG members as well.
Please note that the abstract submission deadline has been extended till
March 18th.

Thank you for your attention!

Best regards,

Lamiaa

Dear Lamiaa,

I would like to bring to your attention the *Baryons 2016* International
Conference (see information below). The meeting highlights a large variety
of aspects concerning baryon (and hadron) physics. The list of topics
includes (but is not limited to):

* Spectroscopy of Light / Heavy Flavor Hadrons (resonances, exotic hadrons,
etc.)
* Structure of Hadrons (decays, form factors, structure functions,
polarizabilities, etc.)
* Hadrons at Finite Density and Temperature (QCD vacuum, chiral symmetry,
hadron properties, etc.)
* Electromagnetic and Weak Interactions (photo- and electro-production of
hadrons, P- and CP-violating processes in nucleons and nuclei, etc.)

We have received several abstracts from CLAS on spectroscopy but
unfortunately very little on Deep Processes (one abstract on *Deeply
virtual Compton scattering with CLAS12)*. It would be great to have some
more results in this area from CLAS presented and discussed at the
meeting. Would
you mind advertising the conference again in the Deep Processes working
group? We have extended the abstract submission deadline until March 18th.

Best regards and thank you very much in advance,

Volker Crede

*Brief Overview*
*--------------------*
This BARYONS conference will be the latest in a series of successful
conferences, which
started in 1970 at Duke University, and takes place every three years. The
scope of the
conference is to bring together theoretical and experimental experts on all
areas of physics
relevant to baryon spectroscopy, nucleon structure, and related aspects of
hadron dynamics.

The conference will highlight the physics of baryons and related subjects
in particle, nuclear
and astrophysics. The main issues to be discussed are our understanding of
the structure
and reactions of baryons from the fundamental theory of the strong
interaction, Quantum
Chromodynamics (QCD). In particular, the highly non-perturbative phenomena
of quark
confinement, mass generation and spontaneous breaking of chiral symmetry
will be addressed.

Recent developments of new and forthcoming facilities in the world
will also be showcased.
We strongly encourage the participation of young scientists, including
students and postdocs.


*Main Topics Include:*
*-----------------------------*
* Spectroscopy of Light / Heavy Flavor Hadrons
Resonances, Exotic Hadrons
* Structure of Hadrons
Form Factors, Structure Functions, Polarizabilities, etc.
* Recent Approaches to Non-Perturbative QCD
AdS/CFT Correspondence, Lattice Gauge Theory, Effective Field Theories
* Hadrons at Finite Density and Temperature
QCD, Vacuum, Chiral Symmetry, Hadron Properties, etc.
* Electromagnetic and Weak Interactions
Photo- and Electroproduction of Hadrons, P- and CP-Violating Processes in
Nucleons and Nuclei
* New Facilities and Instrumentation
