Physics with high-luminosity proton-nucleus collisions at the LHC - Workshop

4 Jul 2024, 09:00 → 5 Jul 2024, 16:25 Europe/Zurich

503/1-001 - Council Chamber (CERN)

David d'Enterria (co-chair) (CERN), Iwona Grabowska-Bold (AGH University of Krakow (PL)), Cynthia Hadjidakis (Université Paris-Saclay (FR)), Jean-Philippe Lansberg (co-chair) (Université Paris-Saclay (FR)), Ronan Mcnulty (University College Dublin (IE))

The workshop on "Physics with high-luminosity proton-nucleus collisions at the LHC" will take place at CERN Council Room on 4th-5th July 2024.

The aim of this workshop is to discuss experimental and theoretical issues connected to the physics of proton-nucleus collisions in Run-3 and Run-4 at the LHC. Past results from by the ALICE, ATLAS, CMS/TOTEM, LHCb, and LHCf  experiments will be discussed as well as the future measurements to be carried out. The main topics of the workshop include:

• Constraints of nuclear parton distributions functions (nPDFs).

• Small-x QCD and gluon saturation physics.

• GPDs/TMDs/dPDFs with photon-induced processes in UPCs
• "Small system" p–A benchmark measurements for interpreting A–A collision data.
• Photon-photon collisions in p-A

• Double- and triple-parton scattering in p-A.

• Impact of collider p–A (in particular p-O) measurements for ultra-high energy cosmic rays physics.

• pA, fixed-target, and EIC complementarities

• Beyond the Standard Model opportunities.
