The 2022 Electron-Ion Collider User Group meeting will take place from July 26-30, 2022 will be hosted by the Center for Frontiers in Nuclear Science (CFNS) at Stony Brook University. The meeting will be run in a hybrid mode with the in-person meeting at the Wang Center and remotely on Zoom. The meeting will feature recent advances in EIC project including the…
L’Electron Ion Collider (EIC) è un futuro acceleratore di particelle che ha l’obiettivo di approfondire le nostre conoscenze riguardo l’interazione forte, una delle quattro interazioni fondamentali della natura, attraverso collisioni di elettroni su nuclei e protoni. L’infrastruttura del futuro detector comprende un sistema d’identificazione basato sull’emissione di luce Cherenkov, un fenomeno che permette di risalire…
Dear Colleagues, it is my privilege to inform you that the ATHENA proposal, resulting from so much work and dedication by the ATHENA Collaboration, is now accepted for publication on JINST, reference no. JINST_063P_0522. The ATHENA proposal will also be documented in the DIS2022 proceedings and in the Pisa Detector Meeting 2022 proceedings. All this will…
Le Giornate Nazionali di Catania sono la quarta edizione di una serie di appuntamenti annuali. I gruppi INFN interessati alla futura sperimentazione all’Electron-Ion Collider, (EIC) nuova macchina acceleratrice che sarà realizzata a Brookhaven (USA) ed è prevista entrare in operazione nel 2030, discutono stato e prospettiva del coinvolgimento italiano e dell’INFN in questo progetto scientifico internazionale. In questa intervista John Harris…
La giornata nazionale EIC_NET 2021 è il terzo di una serie di appuntamenti annuali in cui i gruppi INFN interessati alla futura sperimentazione a EIC in USA discutono stato e prospettiva del coinvolgimento italiano nel progetto scientifico internazionale. L’evento sarà all’indomani della sottomissione delle proposta della proto-collaborazione ATHENA, di cui i gruppi italiani sono membri,…
CD-1 milestone marks start of project execution phase for next-generation nuclear physics facility that will probe the smallest building blocks of visible matter
International community of EIC scientists publishes “yellow report” laying out physics case, detector requirements, and evolving detector concepts for future nuclear physics facility
Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL) and the Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility (JLab) are pleased to announce the Call for Collaboration Proposals for Detectors to be located at the Electron-Ion Collider (EIC). The EIC will have the capacity to host two interaction regions, each with a corresponding detector. It is expected that each of these two…
The EIC Yellow Report Workshop at CUA/Washington DC is the third of a series of four workshops in 2020. The purpose of the Yellow Report Initiative is to advance the state and detail of the documented physics studies (White Paper, INT program proceedings) and detector concepts (Detector and R&D Handbook) in preparation for the realization…
The 2020 edition of the “Electron-Ion Collider User Group Meeting” will take place online through Zoom from July 15th to 17th. This user meeting will be the first one to take place after the recent CD0 and site selection made by the US Department of Energy, with the EIC to be constructed at Brookhaven National…
