Talk Low Energy Spin Physics with Lepton, Photon and Hadron Probes Low Energy Spin Physics with Lepton, Photon and Hadron Probes

Speaker

David Hornidge (Mount Allison University)

Description

A central problem of modern physics research is the solution to QCD in the non-perturbative regime. One method of testing QCD in this low-energy region is by measuring certain structure constants of hadrons -- called polarizabilities -- that show particular promise of allowing a direct connection to the underlying quark/gluon dynamics through comparison to modern QCD-inspired model calculations, and to solutions of QCD done computationally on the lattice. This talk will report on recent results on the proton electric and magnetic dipole polarizabilities from a measurement at the Institute for Nuclear Physics in Mainz, Germany.
