The second workshop on Parton Distributions and Lattice Calculations (PDFLattice2019) will be hosted at the MSU Kellogg Biological Station (near Kalamazoo MI). Sessions will start at 9am on Wednesday 25 September and will end at 1pm on Friday 27 September 2019.
The workshop continues the series started at the University of Oxford in 2017 and aims at bringing together the global PDF analysis and lattice-QCD communities to explore ways to improve the current understanding of the distributions of partons in the nucleon.
The format of the workshop will be similar to the one adopted in the previous edition, that is few short talks and ample time for discussions will be scheduled. In addition to a follow-up on the topics discussed in Oxford, one full day will be dedicated to talk about issues and opportunities in the determination of transversity. The rest of the workshop will include a brainstorming session on what lattice QCD could do to help determine Generalized Parton Distributions (GPDs), and a session to plan how the output of the workshop will be documented.
