[Physics-grads-open] PASS talk on Nuclear Physics

[Pooyan Goodarzi]

Hi all,

We will have our first PASS talk of the year next Monday. Please join us 
at noon (from 12:00 pm to 1:00 pm) in the Nebula Room (PHYS 3027).


*Sebastian Moran, PhD student*

Monday, 12:00 pm, Nebula Room (PHYS 3027)
*Study of superfast quarks using Jefferson Lab 11 GeV data*


"Exploring EMC-style ratios for x>1 provides critical insights into the 
EMC effect. Inclusive scattering from nuclei at Bjorken x>1 and high Q2 
is particularly sensitive to the distribution of high-momentum quarks, 
often referred to as 'superfast quarks.' These quarks, which carry 
momentum exceeding that of a nucleon, are linked to the short-distance 
structure of nuclei. This region presents a promising opportunity to 
investigate the role of quark degrees of freedom in nuclear structure. 
The 12 GeV data from Jefferson Lab enables a more precise study compared 
to the 6 GeV data, the maximum energy achievable before the upgrade, as 
the higher Q2 values enhance the dominance of deep inelastic scattering 
(DIS) while suppressing quasi-elastic contributions"


If you’re interested in sharing your work as a speaker, please feel free 
to add your name to this spreadsheet [Google Sheet
