    Form factors are Lorentz invariant functions describing the internal structure of a system. In particular, they encode how physical properties like charge, energy, momentum, pressure, ... are spatially distributed. While nucleon electromagnetic form factors have been studied for a long time, the first extraction of nucleon gravitational form factors from experimental data was reported in 2018,...

    The gravitational form factors (GFFs) are an elegant way to describe the structure of nucleons and nuclei. Their Fourier transform allow a a description of the spatial distribution of the mass, angular momentum , pressure and shear forces densities for both quarks and gluons in the nucleon. The GFFs have been the target of an intensive investigation at Jefferson Lab and form the basis of...

    The polarizabilities of a composite system such as the proton are elementary structure constants. They describe its response to an external electromagnetic (EM) field and quantify the deformation of the charge and magnetization distributions inside the proton caused by the electric or magnetic field, respectively. When studied through the virtual Compton scattering process, the virtuality of...

    The use of spin polarized fuel could increase D-T fusion reactivity by a factor of 1.5 and, owing to alpha heating, increase fusion Q in ITER even more [1]. The use of polarized D and 3He in an experiment avoids the complexities of handling tritium, while encompassing the same nuclear reaction spin-physics, making it a useful proxy to study issues associated with full D-T implementation. 3He...

    Quantum simulation may open the door to addressing a range of computationally intractable problems in strong-interaction physics. In particular, with its reliance on Hamiltonian methods, quantum-simulation and quantum-computing methods are ideal for accessing a wealth of static and dynamical properties of hadrons, nuclei, and dense matter, including a range of structure functions, dynamical...

    A new era for the exploration of hadron structure has begun with the Jefferson Lab 12 GeV program and the planned Electron Ion Collider. The new generation of experiments will allow us to probe the quantum correlation function (QCFs) of quarks and gluons that emerges from the theory of strong interactions. Since QCFs are not direct physical observables, they need to be reconstructed from...

    Recently years have seen significant progress in the first-principles calculation of TMD physics from lattice QCD. In this talk, I will describe the theoretical method for calculating both quark and gluon TMDs, which has been developed under the framework of large-momentum effective theory. I will then review its most recent applications to the non-perturbative quark TMDs and their rapidity...

    Jets of hadrons produced at high-energy colliders provide experimental access to the dynamics of asymptotically free quarks and gluons and their confinement into hadrons. We highlight recent developments in the theoretical understanding of jet substructure, focusing in particular on the "energy correlator" observables, and their application to the spin physics program.

    The proton radius puzzle began in 2010 when the CREMA Collaboration released their measurement of the proton radius (Pohl et. al (2010)) from muonic hydrogen spectroscopy: rp=0.84184(67) fm, This was five standard deviations smaller that the accepted CODATA value at that time (0.8768(69) fm), and sparked an enduring and intriguing puzzle. This puzzle has been addressed in repeated electron...

    Generalized Parton Distributions (GPDs) are nowadays the object of an intense effort of research, in the perspective of understanding nucleon structure. They describe the correlations between the longitudinal momentum and the transverse spatial position of the partons inside the nucleon and they can give access to the contribution of the orbital momentum of the quarks to the nucleon...

    Huge orbital angular momenta (OAM) are produced perpendicular to the reaction plane in non-central high energy heavy-ion collisions, and part of such huge OAM are tranferred to the hot and dense matter created in collisions. Due to the shear of the longitudinal flow particles with spins can be polarized via the spin-orbit coupling in particle scatterings. Such a type of spin polarization with...

    Fixed-target pp and pA collisions with a proton beam at the TeV scale provide unique laboratories for studying of the nucleon’s internal dynamics and, more in general, for investigating the complex phenomena that arise in the non-perturbative regime of QCD.
