Multi-particle reactions play a pivotal role in a wide range of phenomena, from understanding and determining the spectrum of quantum chromodynamics to probing rare processes that serve as stringent tests of the Standard Model of particle physics. This workshop aims to bring together researchers from various subfields of nuclear and particle physics, including lattice QCD, amplitude/phenomenological analysis, effective field theory, and few-/many-body methods.
The primary goals are to showcase cutting-edge research, explore innovative ideas at the intersection of these disciplines, foster collaboration among experts, and enhance the potential for groundbreaking discoveries.
- Lattice QCD studies and related formalism,
- Scattering theory,
- Effective field theories (SMEFT, χPT, ...),
- Ab-initio methods for light and medium nuclei,
- Phenomelogical/experimental analysis of hadron spectroscopy & low-energy nuclear reactions,
- Rare electroweak decays,
- Novel techniques for studying strongly-interacting theories.
This workshop is hosted jointly by the Physics Department at UC Berkeley and the Nuclear Science Division at Lawrence Berkeley National Lab. The lectures will all take place at the UC Berkeley campus, but the participants may have the opportunity to visit the Lab in a guided tour and for a social event.
In addition to talks on the latest findings in this exciting field, the workshop will feature several discussion sessions to foster the development of new ideas. The final two days will highlight the work and career of Stephen Sharpe, a leader in many efforts closely related to the workshop’s focus.
This workshop takes place inmediately after a two-week summer school for graduate students and postdocs on the same topic. For more information about the school, please visit its website: https://conferences.lbl.gov/e/multi_school.
