Workshop

QCD Evolution provides a forum to discuss the most recent scientific advances in the exploration of the strong interactions and how they give rise to mass, spin and the internal structure of all visible matter at the femtoscale, or the field of nuclear femtography. A major goal of the workshop is to provide guidance to the physics programs at experimental facilities from Jefferson Lab to the upcoming, next-generation nuclear physics accelerator in the US, the Electron Ion Collider (EIC).

Since its first workshop held at Jefferson Lab in 2011, QCD Evolution has grown into a "key role playing" hadron physics meeting.

The main topics addressed in the workshop will involve Transverse Momentum Distributions (TMDs), Generalized Parton Distributions (GPDs), Wigner Distributions and small-x physics, together with advances in perturbative and non-perturbative techniques within Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD).
