Other Institutes

The EMMI workshop Challenges in Photon Induced Interactions will be hosted  
by the Polish Academy of Arts and Sciences in Cracow, Poland.

Date:

• workshop: Wednesday, September 6 - Friday, September 8, 2017
• student day: Tuesday, September 5, 2017

The aim of this workshop is to evaluate the present understanding of photon-induced processes at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), and to discuss the potential of the photon-physics programmes of the LHC experiments in future data taking.

Scientific topics:

• Processes induced by photons at the MeV scale
• Ultraperipheral heavy-ion collisions at RHIC and the LHC
• Photo-nuclear processes as probes of gluon distribution in nuclei
• Photons as partons in the nucleon
• Photo-excitations of baryon resonances
• γγ → γγ scattering in ultraperipheral heavy-ion collisions
• γγ-physics at e+e- colliders
• γγ → γγ scattering in laser induced reactions
• The physics of strong electromagnetic fields
• The search for beyond Standard Model Physics in γγ-collisions

Main organizers:

• Rainer Schicker, Physikalisches Institut Ruprecht-Karls Universität Heidelberg
• Antoni Szczurek, Institute of Nuclear Physics PAN Cracow 
  and Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences, University of Rzeszów
