[PAST EVENT] Physics Seminar
November 12, 2015
3:30pm - 4:30pm
Abstract: The nucleon has been a laboratory for studying the strong interactions for decades. The investigation of its quark and gluon structure ultimately led to a fascinating and complicated picture that is still subject of vigorous, fundamental research. I will start this seminar by presenting the most outstanding, current questions pertaining to the nucleon dynamics, I will introduce a well established QCD approach to modeling the nucleon via universal parton distribution functions and then I will focus on Jefferson Lab's physics program, in particular the upcoming Hall C 12 GeV experiment E12-10-002, that will produce precision measurements to constrain the second generation of parton distribution function fits, those from the CTEQ-JLab collaboration.
