The last years have seen a remarkable progress in hadron and nuclear physics towards a unified framework based on the fundamental theory of the strong interaction Quantum ChromoDynamics and Effective Field Theories based upon QCD symmetries. The workshop will address some of these recent developments. The topics to be discussed will cover:
- Chiral and heavy-quark spin symmetry
- Chiral dynamics of few-body hadron systems
- Chiral symmetry and hadrons in a nuclear medium
- Chiral dynamics in nucleon-nucleon interaction and atomic nuclei
- Chiral symmetry in rotating nuclei
- Hadron structure and interactions
- Exotic hadrons, heavy flavor hadrons and nuclei
-
Mesonic atoms and nuclei
The intention is to provide an overview of the present status in these fields as well as of new developments, and a preview of forthcoming investigations.
