International collaboration and free exchange have been for many decades key assets in the progress of particle physics. In particular, international workshops have provided open forums for the sharing of new scientific results and for discussion. The Covid pandemic first, and the current political context, have been challenging the role and format of global scientific cooperation. The online-only format of this Workshop, the first in what we expect to be a series, is chosen to allow universal open attendance, free of constraints from politics, cost of participation and environmental impact of travel.
The Workshop will run for only 2h/day, so as to minimize the inconvenience across time zones, and to allow enough time for personal work as well as meetings and chats among participants. The workshop will be supplemented with a Summer school, which is also run on open access.
This first Workshop on "QCD at the Extremes" will consist of the following Working group sessions:
- Onium production: Toponium and other Onia. Conveners: S. Baranov (P.N. Lebedev Institute of Physics), A Grohsjean (UHH), Ch. Schwanenberger (DESY)
- Quantum entanglement. Conveners: S. Baranov (P.N. Lebedev Institute of Physics), K. Kutak (IFJ PAN)
- Parton Densities and TMDs at high scales, including Heavy Boson PDFs. Conveners: A. Glazov (DESY), S. Taheri Monfared (DESY)
- Parton Densities and TMDs at low scales, including saturation and recombination. Conveners: N. Raicevic (University of Montenegro), K. Kutak (IFJ PAN)
- Strong coupling at small scales. Conveners tba
- New developments in calculations in HEP with AI. Conveners tba
