EPIOS meeting

Mar 19, 2026, 9:00 AM → Mar 20, 2026, 7:00 PM America/New_York

CFNS, Peter Paul Seminar Room, C 120 Physics Building (Stony Brook University/Online)

EIC Polarized IOn Source (EPIOS) consortium is working on development of different polarized ion sources for the upcoming Electron Ion Collider. Last year we had our first meeting. This year we will meet again on 19th and 20th March to discuss our progresses and future plans at Stony Brook University.

This event may be attended in person, or virtually using Zoom.
