Subject: Future Prospects in QCD at RHIC & Jefferson Lab


Dear Colleague,

A workshop on accelerator based nuclear physics (to be pursued
in this and the next decade) is being planned at Brookhaven 
National Laboratory in July 17-22, 2006. It will review the frontiers of QCD today and begin planning the QCD physics of next decade including:
1) precision measurements of the nucleon structure including its
spin, 
2) measurements and understanding of the properties of the cold & 
hot dense matter being created at RHIC and expected to be
created at LHC (using heavy ions), and last but not the least, 
3) the status of precision QCD calculations including the lattice 
techniques.

The workshop will be hosted by BNL. It is being organized 
by physicists involved in experimental and theoretical aspects of 
QCD being pursued at RHIC, Jlab & other facilities. If you are 
interested in any aspect of physics in the near or far term 
future of RHIC (RHIC II, eRHIC), Jlab (Jlab12, eLIC), or heavy 
ion physics at LHC you will hear about it in this meeting and 
your opinions and input would be extremely valuable. 
Please also note that this will be the *last* informal
meeting, before the start of NSAC's Long Range Planning process, 
where the nuclear and accelerator physicists will gather together 
and discuss: the technology, physics aspirations, and the R&D 
required to realize the physics goals. We invite you to participate and make your opinions & ideas heard. 

Workshop on Future Prospects in QCD at High Energies
A Joint EIC2006 and Hot QCD Meeting Hosted by BNL
July 17-22, 2006

This is the third circular of this workshop. The dead line for 
registration is July 10, but earlier registrations will help us 
make our local organization easier. If you are already a speaker and have not registered, please register now.

Thank you and we look forward to seeing you on July 17, 2007

First Circular:

Workshop on Future Prospects in QCD at High Energies
A Joint EIC2006 & Hot QCD Meeting Hosted by Brookhaven National Laboratory
July 17-22, 2006


Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) is the fundamental theory of strong
interactions which explains much of the observable matter in the
universe. In the past decade there has been great progress in our
understanding of hadron structure in the framework of QCD at high
energies and its extrapolations of properties of the theory at extreme
temperatures and densities. These studies have been greatly aided by
increasingly sophisticated ab initio QCD calculations. Further progress
in understanding the fundamental structure of matter will require
upgrades of current facilities, and new accelerators & detectors in the
future.

A workshop is planned at Brookhaven National Laboratory on July 17-22,
2006. It is the third workshop in the series of EIC workshops, with
significantly expanded scope to include broader aspects of QCD. Its
purpose is to take stock of the dramatic progress in the recent
explorations of QCD and to refine the scientific case & experimental
requirements for the next generation of frontier studies in QCD at high
energies. The first two days of this workshop will be dedicated to
developments in accelerator technology, followed by the next four days
with a focus on the physics and detector related issues. Significant
time will be set aside for discussions.

Please mark your calendars, register (https://www.bnl.gov/qcdfp/). 
We hope you will attend this workshop and participate in formulating 
the future directions in QCD at high energy.
