Conference Program
 
Photonuclear Reactions
August 1-6, 2010
Tilton School
Tilton, NH

Application Deadline
Applications for this meeting must be submitted by July 11, 2010. Please apply early, as some meetings become oversubscribed (full) before this deadline. If the meeting is oversubscribed, it will be stated here. Applications will still be accepted for oversubscribed meetings. However, they will only be considered by the Conference Chair if more seats become available due to cancellations.

The Photonuclear GRC is a forum for active researchers to present their latest results from theoretical and experimental studies of photon and electron scattering from nucleons and nuclei. The topics at the 2010 meeting will cover new ideas on the internal spatial and spin quark/gluon structure of the nucleon, on the spectrum of excitations of the nucleon, the structure of few-body and exotic nuclei, and the implications of the measured photonuclear processes for high-density nuclear matter. Ample opportunity will be set aside to discuss ideas with others in the field, and identify future opportunities for our research community. The Photonuclear GRC, on the campus of Tilton School, has historically provided ample and unique opportunities for young physicists and leading researchers to interact both formally and informally.
