Workshops

Exotic atoms—where electrons are replaced by heavier particles such as muons, pions, kaons, antiprotons or heavier antinuclei—serve as very powerful precision laboratories to investigate the fundamental interactions and symmetries of nature.

The past fifteen years have seen a remarkable evolution in our perception of hadron structure. Especially within the past five years, modern experimental facilities, new techniques for the continuum bound-state problem, and progress with lattice-regularized QCD have begun pointing to a crucial role for soft quark + quark (diquark) correlations in forming the structure of hadrons.

The proposed workshop will cover one of the most outstanding topics of strong interaction physics which is the dynamics of quark-gluon interaction in the nuclear medium.
