19th International Spin Physics Symposium (SPIN2010)

Dates: Monday 27th September – Saturday 2nd October 2010
WWW: www.congressa.de/SPIN2010
Location: Jülich, Germany

description

The symposium, which will be organised into plenary sessions and parallel sessions, will cover topics related to spin phenomena, in particle and nuclear physics. These topics will include:

  • fundamental symmetries and spin,
  • spin structure of hadrons,
  • spin physics beyond the standard model,
  • spin in hadronic reactions,
  • spin physics with photons and leptons,
  • spin physics in nuclear reactions and nuclei,
  • spin physics with rare isotope beams,
  • acceleration, storage and polarimetry of polarised beams,
  • polarised ion and lepton sources and targets,
  • future facilities and experiments,
  • medical and technological applications of spin physics.

In particle physics and quantum mechanics, spin is a fundamental characteristic property of elementary particles, composite particles (hadrons), and atomic nuclei. All elementary particles of a given kind have the same spin quantum number, which is an important part of a particle’s quantum state.

Participation by students, young physicists, and physicists from developing countries is strongly encouraged at this symposium.
