As such, the tomography of the nucleon, including its spin, flavor, transverse momentum and position dependence\u00a0are the key goals, particularly for gluons and sea quarks. These, in turn, provide important additional information for LHC physics such as the higher-x dependence of parton\u00a0distributions or the intrinsic transverse momentum dependence that impacts any heavy boson production process, known or unknown. \u00a0Using heavy ions, the EIC can study\u00a0the nonlinear dependence of gluons at high gluon densities that in turn impact low-x processes, the cold baseline for Heavy ion collision data and may shed light on the so-called\u00a0color-glass condensate. \u00a0In this seminar, I will introduce the EIC project, its design and planned timeline and will discuss a selection of the main physics goals.<br><a href=\"https:\/\/www.icrr.u-tokyo.ac.jp\/prwps\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022_10_26_EIC_Todai_Seidl2.pdf\" title=\"\">Presentation Slides<\/a><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/div><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","tag_year":[],"class_list":["post-12677","event_researcher","type-event_researcher","status-publish","hentry","en-US"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.icrr.u-tokyo.ac.jp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/event_researcher\/12677","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.icrr.u-tokyo.ac.jp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/event_researcher"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.icrr.u-tokyo.ac.jp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/event_researcher"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.icrr.u-tokyo.ac.jp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=12677"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"tag_year","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.icrr.u-tokyo.ac.jp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tag_year?post=12677"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
