Short-Range Correlations (SRC) emerge when a proton and neutron within a nucleus come into close proximity - at distances comparable to the nucleon radius - forming a high-momentum, strongly interacting pair. This phenomenon offers a unique window into the transition region between two descriptions of nuclear matter: the low-resolution picture of nuclei as systems of protons and neutrons, and...
The Electron-Ion Collider (EIC), scheduled to commission in the early 2030s, will be the world’s first facility that collides a polarized electron beam with a polarized proton beam as well as ion beams. The collider will be built at the Brookhaven National Lab (BNL). The Electron-Proton/Ion Collider (ePIC) is a general purpose detector to be built at the six-o’clock interaction point (IP6) of...
The spin structure function $g_1$ is important for understanding the quark spin contribution to the overall spin of nucleons, which has been a long standing puzzle in nuclear physics. Through the $Q^{2}$ dependence of $g_1$, the structure function is also sensitive to the gluon spin contribution. In addition, it is important for testing the Bjorken sum rule and can provide a unique way of...
The upcoming MOLLER (Measurement Of Lepton Lepton Electroweak Reaction) experiment at Jefferson Lab aims to measure parity violation in fixed-target electron-electron scattering with unprecedented precision and significantly extend the reach for new dynamics beyond the Standard Model in the electroweak sector. Using the high-intensity, high-precision 11 GeV electron beam at Jefferson Lab,...
The proposed Electron-Ion Collider in China (EicC) envisions advancing China's future High-Intensity heavy-ion Accelerator Facility (HIAF) through strategic upgrades to establish a polarized electron-ion collider. This premier facility will provide a comprehensive experimental platform for nuclear physics, particle physics, and related scientific disciplines in China. Functioning as a modern...
Hyperons were found to be polarized in p-Be collisions at Fermilab as early as 1976, 12 years before the EMC results sparked the "proton spin crisis." Since then, polarized Lambda hyperons have been observed in electron-positron, proton-proton, and proton-ion collisions. However, unlike the extensive study of nucleon spin structure, the origin of Lambda polarization lacks systematic...
The proposed STCF is a symmetric electron-positron beam collider designed to provide e+e− interactions at a centerof-mass energy from 2.0 to 7.0 GeV. The peaking luminosity is expected to be 0.5×10^35 cm−2s−1. STCF is expected to deliver more than 1 ab−1 of integrated luminosity per year. The huge samples could be used to make precision measurements of the properties of XYZ particles; search...
The High Intensity heavy-ion Accelerator Facility (HIAF) will be a major workhorse for the accelerator-based (sub)atomic physics in the multi-GeV region in the next decades. As fundamental as the mass, spin plays a profound role in the structure of microscopic particles and interactions among them. Besides, spin has long provided unique approaches to test fundamental symmetries and to search...
