Description

The 1st workshop on Baryon Dynamics from RHIC to EIC will be held at Center for Frontiers in Nuclear Science (CFNS), Stony Brook University, on Jan 22-24, 2024. 

This workshop aims to address fundamental questions such as what carries the baryon quantum number and how a baryon is stopped in high-energy collisions.



This question has profound implications for understanding the structure of baryon. It also challenges our current knowledge of QCD and its non-perturbative aspects, such as baryon junctions and gluonic topology. The workshop will explore the origin and transport of baryons in high-energy collisions, from the AGS/SPS/RHIC/LHC to JLab Fπ, HERA/EIC, and discuss the experimental and theoretical challenges and opportunities in this field.

The workshop will feature invited talks by leading experts. The topics will include:

• Baryon junctions and gluonic topology in QCD

• Baryon stopping and charge stopping in heavy-ion collisions

• Baryon transport in photon-induced processes 

• Baryon-meson-transition in High-energy backward u-channel reaction  


• Models of baryon dynamics and physics of baryon-rich matter

• Novel experimental methods to search for true carriers of baryon number

The workshop will also foster dialogue and collaboration between the RHIC/LHC and EIC (ePIC & det-II) physics communities and identify future directions and goals for this research area.

This is a hybrid meeting. We strongly encourage you to participate in person, for informal discussion and fostering future collaboration. We will however accommodate remote participation in case you have travel restrictions.


 This event is part of the CFNS workshop/ad-hoc meeting series. See the CFNS conferences page for other events.

        (Remote) Classical non-planar stable motions of the baryon- and tetraquark strings 30m

        Classical non-planar motions of a Y-shaped string with massless quarks provide a picture of a baryon on its leading Regge trajectory, with the same slope as for the mesons. Adding a second junction, a tetra-quark is obtained. A semi-classical quantization a la sum-over-histories leads, for each value of the total angular momentum of these objects, to discrete values of their masses and of the relative energies of the different string branches. A quantized phenomenological “diquark mass” is derived.
