Description
In this talk, we present an overview of the scientific opportunities that would be addressed by the China Electron-Ion-Collider (EIC). In the first phase the China EIC will be 3 ∼ 5 GeV polarized electron on 12 ∼ 23 GeV polarized proton (and ions about 12 GeV/nucleon), with luminosity 1 ∼ 2 × 1033cm− 2s− 1 . we will focus on discuss the EIC plan and its exciting physics po-tentials with the lowest experimental conditions. It converges towards a set of golden experiments that illustrate the science reach on such a facility. It will open up a new window to study the three dimensions (3D) nucleon structure for both sea and valence quarks in both momentum and coordinate space and help fully understand the strong interaction.
