[Theory-seminars] Online theory seminar next week

[Astrid Hiller Blin]

Dear all,

Here is a reminder of next week's theory seminar:

*Theory seminar*
Monday August 10, *9:00 AM *(Please note the unusual time.)

Pia Zurita (University of Regensburg), "Parton Distribution Functions in
nuclei: status, recent work and future colliders"

Abstract:

A precise knowledge of the parton distribution functions (PDFs) is crucial
for any study involving at least one proton in the initial state. When
protons are replaced by nuclei, the non-trivial modifications of the cross
sections can be attributed to changes in the PDFs due to the medium. These
nuclear PDFs (nPDFs) are relevant for e+A, p+A and A+A collisions, where
they can help disentangle cold nuclear matter effects from genuinely new
phenomena. Moreover, they can be used to improve the flavor separation of
the quarks in e+p and p+p experiments. Despite four decades of dedicated
studies, a full description of the nPDFs is still missing. In this talk, I
will review the current status of nPDFs and discuss the latest results and
possibilities for improvements in future colliders.
