5th DAE-BRNS Workshop on Hadron Physics (Hadron 2011)

Workshop on Magnetic Fields in Hadron Physics

Three Lectures on Hadron Physics

These lectures explain that comparisons between experiment and theory can expose the impact of running couplings and masses on hadron observables and thereby aid materially in charting the momentum dependence of the interaction that underlies stronginteraction dynamics. The series begins with a primer on continuum QCD, which introduces some of the basic ideas necessary in order to understand th...

Hadron Physics at BaBar

The BABAR experiment at SLAC is designed to measure CP violation in the B meson system, however the very high statistics combined with the different e+ and e− beam energies, the detector design and the open trigger allow a wide variety of spectroscopic measurements. We are beginning to tap this potential via several production mechanisms. Here we present recent results from initial state radiat...

Challenges in Hadron Physics

Received (Day Month Year) Revised (Day Month Year) In this talk, I address some open problems in hadron physics and stress their importance for a better understanding of QCD in the confinement regime. 1. Introductory remarks Hadron physics explores the least understood sector of the Standard Model (SM), namely QuantumChromoDynamics (QCD) at large gauge coupling. In the region of energies below ...

Aspects of Hadron Physics

Detailed investigations of the structure of hadrons are essential for understanding how matter is constructed from the quarks and gluons of Quantum chromodynamics (QCD), and amongst the questions posed to modern hadron physics, three stand out. What is the rigorous, quantitative mechanism responsible for confinement? What is the connection between confinement and dynamical chiral symmetry break...
