Scientific program of NICA (Nuclotron-based Ion Collider fAcility) is now under realization phase at JINR (Dubna). The main goal of the program is an experimental study of hot and dense strongly interacting matter in heavy ion collisions at nucleon-nucleon centre-of-mass energies of 4-11 GeV and at average luminosity of 10E27 cm-2s-1 for Au (79+) in the collider mode. In parallel, fixed target...

Heavy nuclei probed in deep inelastic scattering and diffraction with leptonic probes
in the high-energy (small-x) regime open a new precision window into answering
fundamental questions in QCD.
The proposed electron-ion collider at BNL (eRHIC) will be a new high-energy
and high-luminosity electron-ion/proton machine. The design offers
unprecedented access to study the nature of QCD...

Oral Presentation
The project of a new experimental facility at CERN, the Large Hadron-electron Collider, which will collide electrons against the LHC beams at center-of-mass energies around 1 TeV per nucleon, will be presented. After a brief introduction and showing the proposals for accelerator and detector, the physics opportunities for QCD studies will be discussed. Specifically, I will focus on the...

We outline the physics opportunities~\cite{Brodsky:2012vg} which are offered by a next generation and multi-purpose fixed-target experiment exploiting the LHC beams extracted by a bent crystal. This mature extraction technique offers an ideal way to obtain a clean and very collimated high-energy beam, without altering the performance of the LHC~\cite{Uggerhoj:2005xz,Scandale:2011zz,LUA9}. The...
