AC.00001: Critical Tests of QCD at the EIC Invited Speaker: Jianwei Qiu Nuclear Physics community recommended a high-energy high-luminosity polarized EIC as the highest priority for new facility construction following the completion of FRIB in its 2015 Long-Range Plan. National Academy of Sciences provided ``An Assessment of U.S.-Based Electron-Ion Collider Science'' in 2018, finding the science that EIC will achieve is unique and world leading and will ensure global U.S. leadership in nuclear science, as well as in accelerator science and the technology of colliders. In this talk, I will briefly review specific measurements at the EIC that provide critical tests of our understanding of mass, spin, hadron structure, and emergent properties of dense systems in QCD.

AC.00002: Quantum Information and Nuclear Physics Invited Speaker: John Preskill I'll discuss the current status and future potential of quantum information science and technology, emphasizing the prospects for addressing Grand Challeges in Nuclear Physics using quantum computers, quantum simulators, and quantum sensors. Eventually, quantum computers and simulators will be able to explore properties of nuclear matter and features of hadronic dynamics that are beyond the reach of foreseeable classical computers. However, this big physics payoff may still be many years away. Realistically, the goal of the NP community in the near term should be to light the way toward future progress by developing new tools, methods, and insights. Today’s research can hasten the arrival of a new era in which quantum technology fuels remarkable advances in NP research. [Preview Abstract] |
