Introduction to Transverse Momentum Imaging - Lecture 3

Explore the third lecture on Transverse Momentum Imaging delivered by Andrea Signori as part of the International School and Workshop on Probing Hadron Structure at the Electron-Ion Collider. Delve into advanced concepts related to the internal structure of protons and neutrons, focusing on the distribution of quarks and gluons. Learn about the upcoming electron-ion collider (EIC) at Brookhaven National Lab and its potential to uncover unprecedented details about fundamental particles. Examine key questions the EIC aims to address, including the distribution of quarks and gluons in nucleons, the origin of proton mass and spin, and the possibility of gluon saturation in heavy ion collisions. Gain insights into the EIC's high luminosity and wide kinematical coverage, which will provide access to previously unseen information about nucleon structure. Suitable for PhD students, postdocs, and junior faculty members working in particle physics, QCD, hadron physics, or heavy ion physics.
