Subject: Seminar & discussion:  Mark Strikman,  "Perspectives in high-energy eA physics with EIC",  Friday, January 27, 9:30 AM, Room F326

Dear Colleagues,


Mark Strikman (Penn State) will visit JLab this week and give a seminar on perspectives in 
high-energy eA physics with EIC, at the time & place of the regular EIC meeting, Friday 9:30 AM, Room F326. 
The event will be informal and is intended to enable broad-based discussion of future plans.
All interested theorists are welcome to attend!
Please see abstract below.


Mark Strikman (Penn State):
"Perspectives in high-energy eA physics with EIC: 
Nuclear shadowing, nonlinear effects, black-disk regime"


In this talk I will focus on the electron-nucleus phenomena which lead to a nonlinear dependence 
on the nucleus atomic number, A. First, unitarity considerations will be used to estimate the x-range 
where the rise of the small dipole-nucleus/proton cross section should be tamed and the black-disk 
regime may set in. Contrary to some expectations it is found that this regime is reached at similar x 
for nuclei and proton targets, due to the presence of leading-twist nuclear shadowing. Next, the theory 
of leading-twist shadowing will be reviewed, including confirmation of our prediction of large leading-twist 
gluon shadowing in J/psi photoproduction at the LHC. The EIC will provide ample opportunities for detailed 
studies of various phenomena related to the nuclear shadowing. Finally, we will discuss methods for 
observing the breakdown of leading-twist dynamics due to the approach to the black-disk regime. We will 
argue that the most promising approach is studying forward hadron production at the EIC and the LHC.
