Proceedings of the SUNY Institute of Technology Conference on Theoretical High Energy Physics, June 6, 2002


Book Description

This proceedings is the result of the second Theoretical High Energy Physics conference held at the SUNY Institute of Technology, in conjunction with Mount Allison University. The conference was held over a 3 week period in June 2002, involving speakers from international universities.




Physics With Gev-particle Beams - Proceedings Of The International Conference


Book Description

The investigation of hadronic and nuclear probes with protons and electrons in the energy range of a few GeV is of great importance for the understanding of the properties of nucleons and mesons as well as of their interaction. Experimental results from studies with these beams provide the basis for the development and the tests of theoretical approaches in the energy regime of non-perturbative QCD. They can also clarify the effect of the nuclear medium on elementary reactions. The conference has reviewed the present status of this field of research. The topics have beenThe conference topics comprised investigations near energy thresholds in the tradition of the conferences on Particle Production near Threshold in Nashville, IN, USA, 1990, and Uppsala, Sweden, 1992.




SCADRON70


Book Description

The light scalar mesons have been posing serious problems to both theorists and experimentalists. Even nowadays there is no consensus whatsoever on the quark structure of these hadronic resonances, some of which are very broad. Nevertheless, the light scalars are of tremendous importance for a better understanding of QCD and strong interactions, with far-reaching implications for nuclear physics as well. The SCADRON70 Workshop managed to bring together many of the leading experts in the field, with invited talks of spokespersons of practically all major experimental collaborations in particle and hadronic physics, besides invited talks given by some renowned theorists. Simultaneously, the Workshop allowed to honor one of the pioneers of scalar mesons, viz. Prof. Michael D. Scadron, at the occasion of his 70th birthday.




The IVth International Conference on Quarks and Nuclear Physics


Book Description

The QNP series of international conferences on Quarks and Nuclear Physics is by now a well established and highly respected forum where the most recent developments in the field are discussed and communicated. QNP 2006 is the forth edition of this biennial meeting. Selected and refereed original contributions of QNP 2006 have been published in The European Physical Journal A - Hadrons and Nuclei (EPJ A), while the present proceedings book, in addition to reprinting the articles published in EPJ A, further includes all other contributions selected and accepted by the organizing committee for publication and archiving.
















Hadron Spectroscopy


Book Description

The purpose of Hadron 05 was to discuss recent developments in hadron spectroscopy. New hadrons have been discovered in the past few years. These states do not quite fit into the traditional quark model classification scheme of hadrons. There has also been a remarkable improvement in the understanding of heavy quark bound systems, or heavy quarkonia, as well as the so-called scalar mesons. Topics covered include baryons, exotics, and hadron structure.
