<b>Extracting scattering and resonance properties from the
lattice</b><br>

</michaelp@jlab.org></pshana@mit.edu>As JLab completes its 12
GeV upgrade, the coming years are expected to bring major
developments in our understanding of the strong force. To get the
most out of upcoming experiments, it is crucial to have solid
theory predictions, based in the underlying theory of QCD. Here
the well established methods of Lattice QCD should play a key
role. However, numerical Lattice QCD calculations are necessarily
performed in a finite volume and with Euclidean time and for
scattering and transition amplitudes these constraints have
important consequences. It is not possible to directly access the
desired observables from the numerically determined correlators.
Nonetheless, great progress has been made by using finite volume
as a tool rather than an artifact, and deriving non-perturbative
relations between the finite- and infinite-volume theories. I will
review recent developments in this work with particular focus on
three-hadron final states.<br>
