Hi everyone,

This week's nuclear/hadronic physics seminar will take place on Thursday 
at 3:30pm in Small Hall 122. Simona Malace, postdoctoral fellow at 
Jefferson Lab, will be presenting her research on determining the parton 
distribution functions of quarks and gluons in the nucleon. The title is 
"Nucleon Structure: First Year of 12 GeV Physics in Hall C at Jefferson 
Lab." An abstract is appended below.

Please let me know if you would like to meet with Simona after the 
seminar, or join for dinner.

Cheers,

Wouter

Schedule of future fall nuclear physics seminars:

Nov 19: Kalyan Allada (MIT), transversity in nucleons

Dec 3: Ciprian Gal (UVA), parity violation results with the Qweak experiment

Nucleon Structure: First Year of 12 GeV Physics in Hall C at Jefferson Lab

Abstract: The nucleon has been a laboratory for studying the strong 
interactions for decades. The investigation of its quark and gluon 
structure ultimately led to a fascinating and complicated picture that 
is still subject of vigorous, fundamental research. I will start this 
seminar by presenting the most outstanding, current questions pertaining 
to the nucleon dynamics, I will introduce a well established QCD 
approach to modeling the nucleon via universal parton distribution 
functions and then I will focus on Jefferson Lab's physics program, in 
particular the upcoming Hall C 12 GeV experiment E12-10-002, that will 
produce precision measurements to constrain the second generation of 
parton distribution function fits, those from the CTEQ-JLab collaboration.
