EIC-Asia Workshop on QCD and Hadron Structure

29 Apr 2026, 08:30 → 1 May 2026, 18:00 Asia/Taipei

Meeting Room, 5F, New Phys Bldg (Institute of Physics, Academia Sinica)

C.-J. David Lin (Institute of Physics, National Yang Ming Chiao Tung University), Chia Ming Kuo (National Central University, Taiwan), Jen-Chieh Peng (University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign), Po-Ju Lin (National Central University), Wen-Chen Chang (Institute of Physics, Academia Sinica)

The electron-ion collider will significantly enhance our understanding of hadron structure.  This workshop aims to bring together experts in experiments, phenomenology and lattice calculations that are relevant to this subject.  In addition to invited presentations, we may be able to accommodate a few contributed talks with priority given to junior reseachers.

Registration deadline: The 20th of April 2026

Abstract submission deadline: The 14th of April 2026

Topics include

     Lattice QCD and hadron structure
