Institute of research into the fundamental laws of the Universe

Theory and phenomenology studies at LSN are focussed on a better understanding of the quark and gluon structure of hadrons, and of the mechanisms of elementary reactions. 

They are devoted to :

• Calculation of cross sections and polarization observables in scattering and annihilation reactions;
• Description of static properties as mass, spin and dynamical properties of hadrons as nucleon form factors, structure functions, Generalized Parton Distributions (GPDs), Transverse Momentum Dependent parton distribution functions (TMDs);
• Classification, modeling and understanding of world experimental data.
