In this talk, I review the description of low-energy pion-Compton scattering in chiral perturbation theory. At one-loop order, the effects due to the pion structure consist of the electric and magnetic polarizabilities (subject to the constraint $\alpha_\pi+\beta_\pi =0$) and a unique pion-loop correction interpretable as photon scattering off the ``pion-cloud around the pion''. The latter...

The charge radius Rp of the proton has so far been known only with a precision of about 1% from both electron scattering and precision spectroscopy of hydrogen.
We have recently determined Rp by means of laser spectroscopy of the exotic "muonic hydrogen" atom [1]. Here, the muon, which is the 200 times heavier cousin of the electron, orbits the proton with a 200 times smaller Bohr radius....

Recently the muonic hydrogen lamb shift has been measured with unprecedented accuracy [R. Pohl et al, Nature vol. 466, p. 213 (2010)], allowing for a precise determination of the proton radius. This determination is 5 sigma away from the previous CODATA value obtained from (mainly) the hydrogen lamb shift and the electron-proton scattering. Within an effective field theory formalism, I will...

In the Quark Parton Model, the nucleon is successfully described in terms of parton distribution functions (PDFs). Whereas unpolarized parton distributions like $q(x)$ and $g(x)$ interpreted as number densities of quarks and gluons at a given longitudinal momentum fraction $x$ in the nucleon are relatively well known, distribution involving polarization degrees of freedom are less well...

Recently, the exploration of the partonic composition of protons and neutrons has entered a new phase, with the study of the three-dimensional momentum and space structure. New theoretical concepts like the Transverse Momentum Dependent Distributions (TMDs) help to describe the momentum distributions of partons inside nucleons. Several dedicated experiments are running, being built or planned....

One of the open challenges in subnuclear physics is to understand the non-perturbative regime of Quantum Chromodynamics, including the world of the nucleon and its excitations. One of the key issues here is to identify the relevant degrees-of-freedom and the effective forces between them. A necessary step towards this aim is a precise knowledge of the experimental spectrum and the properties...

These are exciting times for quarkonium production. New theoretical advances are coinciting with the awaited measurement of new observables at the LHC. Progress has been made in testing different production mechanism for the heavy quarkonia. For instance, recently, a global data analysis of J/psi production within the framework of nonrelativistic QCD was performed at NLO accuracy, hinting at...

We review lattice results relevant for pion and kaon physics with the aim of making them easily accessible to the particle physics community. We introduce quality criteria and use these when forming averages. Although subjective and imperfect, these criteria may help the phenomenologist to judge different aspects of current lattice computations.

The BESIII experiment had taken about 106 million psi(2S), 230 million J/psi events in 2009, and 0.92 fb-1 integrated lumimosity on psi(3770) peak for D physics in 2010. We are still collecting data at the psi(3770) this year, in this summer, we will have another 2.2 fb-1. The total luminosity on psi(3770) peak will be 3.1 fb-1, which is about four times of that at CLEO-c.
The BESIII will...

The determination of the excited spectrum of baryons has been a major focus of experimental efforts worldwide. Spectroscopy reveals

Hadron modifications in hot and/or dense nuclear matter have been predicted by many model calculations.
