Lederle Graduate Research Tower (LGRT) 419B , U Mass Amherst
Joint ACFI-Jefferson Laboratory workshop, with support also provided by U.N.C.-Wilmington.
The workshop will explore new opportunities for probing physics beyond the Standard Model and testing chiral symmetry in hadronic process. A particular focus will be on the proposed measurements of rare eta decays at Jefferson Lab (see http://www.jlab.org/exp_prog/proposals/13/PR12-13-004.pdf, http://people.uncw.edu/ganl/primex/PAC40/erd_main2013may5b_merged.pdf and https://cnidlamp.jlab.org/RareEtaDecay/JDocDB/node/31/rareallneutraletadecayswriteup.pdf ), placed in the broader context of present and future probes of mesonic decays. The third day of the workshop will consider possibilities for Jefferson Lab measurements relevant to the hadronic light-by-light contribution to the muon anomalous magnetic moment.
