Dear Colleague,

Following the successful Conference on "Polarization in Electron Scattering" which was held on September 1995 in Santorini, we are initiating a series of conferences on: "Electromagnetic Interactions with Nucleons and Nuclei"

The idea is to have in Europe, each other year, a meeting which will provide a forum to discuss the latest achievements in this field and to prepare its future. The participation of young researchers is strongly encouraged. No proceedings will be issued.

The next Conference will be held in SANTORINI (Greece) from TUESDAY OCTOBER 21 (evening) to SUNDAY OCTOBER 26 (morning),1997 with the title "ELECTROMAGNETIC STRUCTURE OF HADRONS AND NUCLEI"

The program will be set in such a way as to review the latest achievements and milestones in Nuclear and Hadronic Physics at the borderline between Nuclear Physics and Particle Physics. Significant amount of time will be devoted to discussions in order to identify issues which require a common approach.

The following topics will be covered:

INTERNATIONAL ADVISORY COMMITTEE (* to be confirmed)

This Conference has the support of the Board of the Nuclear Physics section of the European Physical Society (EPS) and is endorsed by the European Science Foundation (ESF).

EUROPEAN RESEARCH CONFERENCE

ON

ELECTROMAGNETIC INTERACTIONS WITH NUCLEONS AND NUCLEI:
Electromagnetic Structure of Hadrons and Nuclei

Santorini, Greece, 21-26 October 1997

Organized in Association with the Nuclear Physics Division
of the European Physical Society

Chairman: Jean-Marc Laget (Saclay, FR)
Vice-Chairman: Costas Papanicolas (Athens, GR)
Chairman of Local Organizing Committee: Nikos Giokaris (Athens, GR)

Scope of the Meeting
--------------------

One of the major areas of activity in Hadronic Physics is the understanding of the structure of hadrons, and their interactions, at the scale of the confinement of quarks. Recent theoretical developments in the treatment of hard scattering mechanisms, as well as in effective theories, have made significant conceptual advances possible. Technical progresses in the accelerators of continuous beams of electrons, as well as in colliders between electrons and protons, have opened new ways to explore the structure of hadronic matter. This meeting will combine the contributions from experts in both Nuclear and Particle Physics, to evaluate key achievements in these fields and identify issues which require a common approach. Emphasis will be on discussion following presentations by internationally renowned researchers.

TOPICS TO BE INCLUDED IN THE MEETING
------------------------------------

Quark and Gluon Degrees of Freedom in Hadronic Matter
Effective Degrees of Freedom in Nuclear Matter
Nuclear Structure
Structure of the Nucleon: Form Factors
Structure of the Nucleon: Deep Inelastic Scattering
Heavy Flavors
Instrumentation

A round table on "Future Projects and Developments in Europe" will conclude the meeting.

A book of abstracts will be edited by N. Giokaris, Chairman of the Local Organizing Committee, and distributed at the begining of the Conference. Participants and invited speakers will be invited to submit a one page abstract. Instructions and template will be available from Santorini97. In each session, presentations, preferably by young researchers, on latest results will be selected from the abstracts. A Poster session will be organized for others.

Network meeting at Erlangen, February 11--13, 1999,
combined with the European Real Photon Working Group Meeting.

1st circular

Dear Colleagues,

  1. The date of the general meeting of our Network HaPHEEP, in Erlangen, which fits with the schedule of most of us, and the schedule of the European Real Photon Working Group, is:

    February 11--13, 1999

    Please secure it in your agenda, and make sure that the network post-doc(s) in your team will attend. You can use the Network fund (under the Networking Costs item) to cover the travel to, and living expenses in, Erlangen.

    A Draft Programme would be:

    Thursday, February 11 : Real Photon Working Group  
    Friday, February 12 : Real Photon Working Group (Morning)
      Network General (Afternoon)
    Saturday February 13 : Network Post-Docs Presentation(Morning)
      Work Plan (Afternoon)
      Next Network (Afternoon)

    The idea is to intertwin the Network Meeting and the Real Photon Working Group Meeting, at least on Friday, and to shorten the entire event down to three days.

    I strongly suggest that the Post-docs of our Network attend the entire three days of the event, and start discussing among themselves if they are not directly involved in the technical discussions of the Real Photon Working Group.

  2. In order to prepare the Post-Docs presentations and discussions, I will ask each of them to send a brief account (Status report) of their work(s) within the Network (1/2 a page).

    Cold you let know the E_MAIL ADDRESSES of your Network Post-Doc(s). Thanks. I need to update my mailing list!!

  3. Next Network. The call for proposal for the Network Activities in the 5th RTD Programme will be issued mid January (unofficial) and mid February (official). The deadline for submission will be mid June. During the last meeting of the Steering Committee (Monday Nov. 30), we agreed on the following scheme:
    • Each Team send me (JML) their thoughts
    • First discussion in Bad Honnef
    • If a consensus emerges, I will circulate it before Erlangen
    • Finalize the geometry and the work plan in Erlangen
    The important issue is to identify themes/topics on which Teams are willing to work together.

  4. For those of you who will attend the Bad-Honnef Seminar, we will meet on Wednesday at 21:00.

    I am looking forward to hear of you soon.

    Best Regards,
    Jean-Marc


2nd circular, Erlangen meeting

Dear Colleagues,

I attach at the end of this message, the instructions for reaching Erlangen and book your hotel, that Gisela Anton kindly sent me.

I'll be away from Saclay during the entire next week, but I'll read my e_mail messages.

The draft programme is still:

Thursday, February 11 : Real Photon Working Group  
Friday, February 12 : Real Photon Working Group (Morning)
  Network General (Afternoon)
Saturday February 13 : Network Post-Docs Presentation(Morning)
  Work Plan (Afternoon)
  Next Network (Afternoon)

When I am back, I'll send you a more detailed programme. For the moment, the only new item is that E. de Sanctis will present the option ELFE at CERN on Friday afternoon. He has recently been appointed by NuPPEC to coordinate the corresponding actions, and a meeting of the coordinating group is scheduled on Wednesday Feb. 10 at CERN.

In order to prepare the meeting I need the missing status reports from post-docs: to date, I only got those of Deandrea, Thomas and Gaulard.

I also need your input to produce a draft of the work program and to define the geometry of the next network: to date, I only got written comments and suggestions from Boffi, Mulders, Pirner and Van de Vyver, and over the phone by De Sanctis.

Best wishes for this new year!

General Information
 
 
 

The aim of the workshop is to stimulate an active scientific interaction between theorists and experimentalists working in the field with the ambitious goal of identifying open problems and perspectives for future activities.

The workshop will address the following themes:
- Models of the Nucleon;
- Nucleon Form Factors in the space- and time-like regions;
- Unpolarised Nucleon Structure Functions;
- Polarised Nucleon Structure Functions.

For each of the above themes we foresee both invited and contributed talks and plan to leave large fraction of time for general discussions. These will be led by two conveners, one theorist and one experimentalist. Participants will be encouraged to participate into the discussions by presenting their work or ideas on the subject in a maximum of two-three transparencies.

There is no registration deadline. However, since the low rate rooms reserved in the hotels of these area are held until February 28 and since the numbers of participants is limited to 130, you may better register soon.

The workshop fee is 360.000 Italian Lire - 185,924 Euro - (to be paid at the Registration Desk, no advanced payment, no checks, no credit cards). It includes proceedings, shuttle service during the Workshop, coffee breaks, lunches and social dinner.

Dear Jean-Marc,

I am sending you a general invitation to our workshop about light-cone wave functions, August 1-3. I hope very much that you will be able to attend, and I think that this workshop may be interesting to many members of our network. I encourage you to distribute this announcement among members of the network. Note that at this stage we mainly plan review talks around which we want to have a lot of discussions. We hope that the participation costs for the network participants can be covered by the network, since our funds are very small.

with my best regards, Vladimir Braun


Dear Collegue, 

We are very glad to invite you to participate in the workshop

               LIGHT-CONE WAVE FUNCTIONS IN QCD

to be held in Regensburg,  1-3 August 1999.

The general question which we want to center on is 
to which extent studies of light-cone wave functions 
(distribution amplitudes) can be made fully 
quantitative and whether the task is worth the effort.
We may also include the topic of off-forward parton distributions 
in case there will be enough interest.


We hope to organize reviews followed by detailed discussions
focused on the following (and related) topics:

1) Experimental feasibility:

- Can one identify suitable reactions in which distribution 
amplitudes 
  can be measured with defendable accuracy? 

- Would one need new dedicated experimental facilities or is the 
program  
  feasible at existing accelerators and detectors ?

- What is needed to convince experimentalists that such a program 
would be 
  of a sufficiently high profile? 

2) Interplay of Feynman and  hard-rescattering  contributions to 
hard 
   exclusive  processes

- Can we produce a list of reactions which can be calculated in pQCD
  at realistic values of momentum transfers with controllable accuracy?

- Can we produce reliable estimates of end-point contributions?

- Do  Sudakov-type resummations really help ?

3) Lattice calculations of light-cone wave functions

- What can and what cannot be done, at what time scale and to 
  which accuracy ?

4) General theory of light-cone wave functions 

- Renormalisation

- Estimates from QCD sum rules/chiral quark models

- Higher-twist wave functions

- Light-cone quantisation 

In all cases we want to emphasize quantitative aspects of the 
problems.


We plan July 31 as arrival day (Saturday), three full days of 
work August 1,2,3; and we may add one day 
August 4 in case there will be interest.

We have set up the WWW-page:


http://www.physik.uni-regensburg.de/~ste23080/conf.html

with further pointers to the information relevant to
the workshop, on-line application form etc.

We hope very much that you will be able to attend and would 
appreciate 
having your definite (positive!) answer as soon as possible, 
to simplify our planning.
 
Unfortunately, we are generally not able to reimburse
travel expences. In a desperate situation, let us know, we will 
try to invent smth. 

With our best regards,

Vladimir Braun, Andreas Schaefer and Eckart Stein

Workshop on The Pion Form Factor
NIKHEF, Amsterdam, The Netherlands
January 18, 2000

The pion is a prime case for calculations of hadron structure, whether in a perturbative QCD framework or non-perturbative ones. Recently the electromagnetic faorm factor of the pion has been studied with state of the art techniques at the Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Laboratory (experiment E93-021) and the results are about to be available.

For this reason on January 18, 2000 in Amsterdam a one-day workshop on The Pion Form Factor will be organized, to discuss the data situation and especially the status of the theory of the pion form factor and how to reliably extract it from experimental data. The format will be plenary talks (mostly invited, but there is room for one or two contributed talks) with ample time for discussion. The topics to be discussed include:

The workshop is supported by the Vrije Universiteit, NIKHEF, Jefferson Laboratory and the European HAPHEEP network.

In order to emphasize the discussions and the workshop character the attendance is limited to about 35 people and will be by invitation only. Like for the "Amsterdam Miniconferences" participants are asked to arrange their travel and lodging themselves (a list of hotels can be found on the NIKHEF web page), but in return there will be no conference fee.

Persons interested to participate are asked to contact the secretary Betsy Eimers by e-mail (betsy@nat.vu.nl). A more detailed program including confirmed speakers will be sent to the participants soon.
