Physics Opportunities at an Electron-Ion Collider (POETIC) XII International Conference
Feb 15–19, 2027
Assess the scientific opportunities of the Electron-Ion Collider as detector construction, software and computing move toward implementation. The conference examines nucleon and nuclear structure in quantum chromodynamics, including the origins of proton spin and correlations between spin and momentum. Jet physics and small-x dynamics connect theoretical predictions with detector technology and analysis requirements. The meeting brings the international EIC community together to discuss recent results, coordinate contributions and shape future experimental and theoretical work. 15 February 20
