Description

The "Reimei workshop on in-medium modification of vector mesons @ Yonsei" will be held on March 8 - 10, 2026, on-site at Yonsei University, Seoul, South Korea. The workshop will focus on topics related to the experimental/theoretical study of vector meson modifications at finite density and/or temperature. With the J-PARC E16 experiment starting its physics measurements in 2026, with the goal of determining the phi meson properties in nuclear matter, the workshop will attempt to provide an overview on the current status of the field.  We hope to create a relaxed atmosphere at the workshop which will hopefully stimulate intensive discussions between all participants, but especially between theorists and experimentalists.

        Quantum Tomography and entanglement in hadronic collisions 40m

        Quantum tomography reconstructs higher dimensional features of quantum mechanical
        systems from lower dimensional experimental information. The method is practical and directly processes experimental data while bypassing field-theoretic formalism. Quantum tomography can probe entanglement while avoiding model assumptions such as factorization. We present our work applying quantum tomography to the analysis of collider reactions. Building on these foundations, we introduce AI-driven extensions enabling it to tackle the large, complex datasets emerging from modern facilities. This work opens a new pathway for fundamental physics to uncover the hidden multidimensional structure of matter directly from experimental measurements.
