A Case for EIC • Explore an absolutely new regime of QCD: An e-A collider will provide a unique opportunity to explore fundamental and universal aspects of QCD. • Measurements would be essential to fully understand the QGP already being studied at RHIC now, also physics at LHC later. • An e-A collider will also allow us to explore with great precision inclusive measurements that have not been pursued beyond the fixed target experimental era. It would also enable, for the first time, a wide range of semi-inclusive measurements in a nuclear environment. August 6, 2002 Parton Distributions, Experimental
A Case for EIC (cont. )…. . • A polarized e-p scattering facility with variable sqrt(s) will allow a) at high sqrt(s) a new region in the x-Q 2 to be explored for the spin DIS. It will address issues that no other present or future approved facility will address. b) in the already measured x-Q 2 range the high luminosity of EIC will allow us to settle lots of yet uncertain issues regarding the proton spin! • Detector and its surrounding experimental area, details of the accelerator design: To_Do! • If the facility is built at BNL, RHIC will become a unique facility where particle & nuclear physicists can do experiments of their choice: e-A. , e-p, polarized e-p, p-A, polarized p-p, A-A.

Conclusions Quality of PDFs permits quantitative predictions with solid errors of Tevatron II and LHC physics. Many open questions at hard scales: A-dependence, saturation, flavor structure, spin structure, transversity, semi-inclusive and exclusive processes. New facilities: HERMES, COMPASS, SLAC, Jefferson Lab, RHIC spin with exciting possibilities in the near future. August 6, 2002 Parton Distributions, Experimental
