T1-6 Physics at the EIC Symposium: Electron-Ion Collider, An Overview (DNP) | Symposium sur la physique à l'EIC: collisionneur électrons-ions, un survol (DPN)
- Garth Huber
The Electron-Ion Collider (EIC) is a pioneering new particle accelerator that will be built on the current site of the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider at Brookhaven National Laboratory. It will provide high energy collisions of polarized electrons with polarized protons and ions, allowing for experiments that probe the nature of strong interactions to unprecedented precision. The EIC Project...
Understanding the properties of nuclear matter and its emergence through the underlying partonic structure and dynamics of quarks and gluons requires a new experimental facility in hadronic physics known as the Electron-Ion Collider (EIC). The EIC will address some of the most profound questions concerning the emergence of nuclear properties by precisely imaging gluons and quarks inside...
As part of large international collaborations, several Canadian universities are shaping the development of the Electron-Ion Collider, its experiments and their detectors technologies. In this presentation I will give an overview of the current and future Canadian activities from coast to coast, and present opportunities for researchers to join these efforts.
