 Special Colloquium: INPP Annual Lecture Monday, April 27, 2015 3:30 PM Physics Building, Room 203 Note special date. Note special room. Stanley J. Brodsky [Host: Dinko Pocanic] SLAC, Stanford University "The Novel World of Hadron Physics"   Slideshow (PDF) ABSTRACT: I will survey a number of exciting new developments in hadron physics. These include: new insights into the nature of the color-confi ning con finement quark potential in quantum chromodynamics; a novel application of supersymmetry to hadron physics; the relation between the parameter ΛMS which controls high-energy interactions of quarks to the mass of the proton; and the elimination of the renormalization scale ambiguity for perturbative QCD calculations. I will also discuss several novel experimental tests of QCD which can be performed at JLab, including: hard exclusive and diff ractive reactions, flavor-dependent antishadowing of nuclear interactions; intrinsic strange- and charm-quark phenomena; the production of tetraquarks and other exotic hadronic states; and factorization-breaking lensing phenomena.
