Sixth International Workshop on Pion-Nucleon Partial-Wave Analysis and Interpretation of Baryon Resonances held at George Washington University

部分波分析（PWA）研讨会自2005年以来每隔一年举行一次，汇集了世界各地的专家参加一个国际公认的论坛，以表彰其对物质最基本组成部分的基本理解，即原子核的中子和质子成分的独特贡献。今年的PWA研讨会将在乔治华盛顿大学雾底校区举行，由哥伦比亚艺术与科学学院核研究中心（CNS）赞助，该中心于1990年11月获得特许，是公认的原子核物理学领域的学术领导者。目前，基础和精密核子物理的活度非常高。自1998年以来，该领域的许多最新发展表明，国家层面对PWA项目的兴趣和支持重新燃起，该项目一直由位于CNS的数据分析中心（DAC）领导。这些发展包括杰斐逊实验室12 gev升级的建设，这代表了联邦一级对支持精密核子物理计划的设备和基础设施的实质性承诺。杰斐逊实验室的核物理项目是包括欧洲和日本在内的精密实验核物理学国际努力的一部分。美国和国际机构的实验室即将提供大量精确的数据。这些新的实验物理学的努力带来了理论和分析研究的复兴。更广泛的影响是，今年的PWA研讨会将把目前参与分析现有和即将进行的核子和强子物理实验的专家和专家聚集在一起。研讨会参加者将包括学生，博士后研究人员，以及年轻和更有经验的教师和研究人员。我们将集中讨论时间敏感和关键问题，以解决精密核子物理实验方案的成功。杰弗逊实验室的大力支持表明了PWA的重要性以及DAC和CNS的工作对项目成功的认可。除了要交流的技术外，一个重要的问题是规划未来的实验，以确保项目的成功。

The Partial Wave Analysis (PWA) Workshops, held in alternating years since 2005, bring together the world's experts in a forum recognized internationally for its singular contributions to the fundamental understanding of the most basic building blocks of matter, the neutron and proton constituents of the atomic nucleus. This year's PWA Workshop will be held at the Foggy Bottom Campus of The George Washington University under the auspices of the Columbian College of Arts and Sciences' Center for Nuclear Studies (CNS), which has been chartered since November of 1990 and is universally recognized as an academic leader in the field of the physics of the atomic nucleus. Currently, activity is very high in fundamental and precision nucleon physics. Many recent developments in the field have signaled a reinvigorated interest in and support for the PWA program at the national level, which has been led by the Data Analysis Center (DAC) housed in the CNS since 1998. These developments include the construction of Jefferson Laboratory's 12-GeV Upgrade, which represents substantial commitment at the federal level for equipment and infrastructure supporting the precision nucleon physics program. The nucleon physics program at Jefferson Laboratory is part of an international effort in precision experimental nuclear physics including efforts in Europe and Japan. A wealth of precision data is forthcoming from laboratories both in the United States and international institutions. These new experimental physics efforts have ushered in a renaissance in theoretical and analytical research.Of broader impact, this year's PWA Workshop will bring specialists and experts together who are presently involved in the analysis of existing and forthcoming experiments on nucleon and hadron physics. Workshop attendees will include students, postdoctoral researchers, and both younger and more experienced faculty and researchers. We will focus on time-sensitive and critical issues addressed to the success of precision nucleon physics experimental programs. Substantial support from Jefferson Laboratory indicates the recognition of the importance of PWA and the work of the DAC and CNS to the success of the program. Beside techniques to be exchanged an important issue is the planning of future experiments to ensure the success of the program.
