Advances in machine learning methods provide tools that have broad applicability in
scientific research. These techniques are being applied across the diversity of nuclear …

Abstract This White Paper aims at highlighting the important benefits in the science reach of
the EIC. High luminosity operation is generally desirable, as it enables producing and …

A precise knowledge of the quark and gluon structure of the proton, encoded by the parton
distribution functions (PDFs), is of paramount importance for the interpretation of high …

Quantum Chromodynamics, the theory of quarks and gluons, whose interactions can be
described by a local SU (3) gauge symmetry with charges called “color quantum numbers” …

We summarize the ongoing scientific program of the 12 GeV Continuous Electron Beam
Accelerator Facility (CEBAF) and give an outlook into future opportunities. The program …

We present a review of the conceptual basis, current knowledge, and recent progress
regarding global analysis of nuclear parton distribution functions (PDFs). After introducing …

We perform the first global QCD analysis of pion valence, sea quark, and gluon distributions
within a Bayesian Monte Carlo framework with threshold resummation on Drell-Yan cross …

The study of the dynamics of strong interactions in the high-energy regime is a core line of
frontier researches at the LHC as well as at new-generation colliding facilities. Here, the …

The last two decades have witnessed the discovery of a myriad of new and unexpected
hadrons. The future holds more surprises for us, thanks to new-generation experiments …

We outline the physics opportunities provided by the Electron Ion Collider (EIC). These
include the study of the parton structure of the nucleon and nuclei, the onset of gluon …
