Positron Source and Beam Physics
Oral Contribution
Both polarized and unpolarized positron beams with an energy range from a few eV to hundreds of GeV have diverse applications in medicine, material science and nuclear physics. In many cases, they are the unique tools for the study of the physical world. However, the creation of polarized positrons with sufficient intensity is particularly challenging. We propose a dedicated scheme to generate...

Oral Contribution
One of the puzzles of the proton form factor is the difference between
determinations of the form factor ratio using unpolarized and polarized
beams. The causal source of this discrepancy is is believed to be two
photon exchange (TPE). Recent precision experiments at $Q^2$ below 2.5
$(\mathrm{GeV}/c)^2$ found smaller than expected but clear indication of two photon
exchange. However, they...

Interference Physics
Oral Contribution
Measurements of Deep Inelastic Scattering (DIS) from nuclei, aimed at
understanding the nuclear dependence of inelastic structure functions (the
EMC effect), are typically performed at high energies, hence effects due to
the acceleration of electrons in the Coulomb field of a large $Z$ nucleus are
usually ignored. However, there are certain kinematics, in particular at
large...
