Invited Speaker / Conférencier(ère) invité(e)

Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) governs the structure of visible matter, yet its most pressing challenges, from dense gluonic dynamics to precision descriptions of hadrons and nuclei, increasingly demand coordinated efforts beyond traditional collaborations. The Inter-American Network of Networks of QCD Challenges (I.ANN QCD) connects communities across the Americas to address fundamental...

Invited Speaker / Conférencier(ère) invité(e)

Generalized Parton Distributions (GPDs) have emerged as a powerful framework for exploring the internal structure of hadrons in terms of their partonic constituents. The proposed Solenoidal Large Intensity Device (SoLID) at JLab is well suited to the study of GPDs, with its unique combination of large kinematic coverage and high luminosity ($>10^{37}$/s/cm$^2$) capabilities. The SoLID GPD...

Invited Speaker / Conférencier(ère) invité(e)

Hadronic physics aims to understand the contribution of quarks, gluons, and their internal dynamics in the for- mation of hadrons. Quantum Chromodynamics predicts a number of bound states, including those having an explicit gluonic degree of freedom called hybrids, but only a few have been confirmed experimentally. The GlueX experiment at Jefferson Lab, USA, utilizes a linearly polarized...

Oral not-in-competition (Graduate Student) / Orale non-compétitive (Étudiant(e) du 2e ou 3e cycle)

For over a century, physicists have developed a detailed framework describing the fundamental particles and their interactions. This framework, called the Standard Model (SM), successfully explains phenomena governed by the electromagnetic, strong, and weak nuclear forces. However, it cannot explain several major mysteries, including dark matter, dark energy, and why the universe does not...
