Aim of the Workshop
The aim of this workshop is to discuss recent and
existing results, and to foster current and future research, investigating
the phenomenon of quark-hadron duality.
Whereas perturbative QCD methods fully describe experimental results at high
energies, and chiral perturbation theory is the low energy effective theory
of the strong interactions, a for of duality is observed transcending these
two regimes. In these intermediate kinematics, a wide variety of reactions
are observed which can be described simultaneously by single particle
(quark) scattering, and by exclusive resonance (hadron) scattering. This
dedicated workshop is aimed at bringing together for the first time
researchers from different areas of hadronic physics, dealing with different
manifestations of quark-hadron duality, to address as one group this
exciting topic.
