In our fifth episode of “Stories Straight from the Heart of Matter,” we explore the internal structure of nucleons through TMDs with our guest, Elena Boglione from the University of Turin.

We explore exactly how this works and the role Lattice QCD will play for the Electron-Ion Collider with our expert, Professor Martha Constantinou of Temple University.

What are parton distribution functions or short PDFs, how we extract them, and why they are of importance for Nuclear and High-Energy Physics, we learn from our expert, Dr. Tim Hobbs of Argonne National Laboratory.
