Abstract
We propose a one-week workshop at ECT* to discuss the theoretical and experimental aspects of high-mass dilepton production with meson and antiproton beams. Opportunities to carry out new measurements on high-mass lepton pairs productions using meson and antiproton beams can provide unique informations on the partonic structures of pion, kaon, and nucleons. A proposal to construct the RF-separated beams at CERN would produce high-intensity kaon and antiproton beams. A high-momentum secondary beam line being constructed at the J-PARC facility will also offer the possibility to measure exclusive Drell- Yan reactions for the first time to explore Generalized Parton Distributions in a time-like process. The goal of this Workshop is to discuss in depth the physics opportunities and experimental feasibilities to investigate hadron structures using the Drell-Yan process with high-intensity meson and antiproton beams.
Organized by
The European Centre for Theoretical Studies in Nuclear Physics and Related Areas (ECT*) in Trento (Italy) provides a dedicated and structured combination of scientific activities for a large international scientific community. ECT* acts as an "intellectual" centre of competence, complementary in scope and activities to existing research facilities based at universities or experimental laboratories. It promotes coordination of European research efforts in nuclear physics and related research areas.
