This talk introduces the concept of glueballs, their significances, and their expected experimental signatures, followed by a brief review of the history and longstanding challenges of glueball searches. The main focus is on the discovery and investigation of X(2370) at BESIII, with particular emphasis ...

Abstract:Light takes just 3 yoctoseconds to traverse a proton-an ephemeral instant that nonetheless suffices to form alocally) thermalized QCD medium from the initially out-of-equilibrium system right after a lead-leadcollision at the LHIC. Over the past two decades,...

Speaker： Xiangdong Ji, T.D. Lee Institute, Shanghai Jiao Tong UniversityTime:  June 2, 2026,Tuesday,10:30 amLocation: Room 9409  Abstract:The Big Bang energy was preserved inside the protons and neutrons (nucleons) through the confinement mechanism of strong interactions in the process of expansion and cooling of the Universe, becoming the sources for stellar evolution and solar energy. Understanding ...

Speaker: Prof. Hongxi Xing, South China Normal UniversityTime: May 19, 2026, Tuesday, 10:30 AMLocation: Lecture Hall 9409Abstract:Elucidating the fundamental partonic structure of hadrons remains a central objective in both particle and high-energy nuclear physics. Since the pioneering deep-inelastic scattering experiments at SLAC in the late 1960s, decades of extensive experimental programs worldwide ...

Speaker: Dr. Jørgen Randrup, Lawrence Berkeley National LaboratorTime: May 7, 2026, Thursday, 10:30 AMLocation: Lecture Hall 9409Abstract：Nuclear fission is a rich physical phenomenon involving strong, electromagnetic, and weak interactions, and it displays classical as well as quantum features. In addition to its many practical aspects, fission is also of basic scientific interest. For example, the ...
