Description
The study of QCD has served as a unifying focus and a common ground for the disciplines of high-energy and nuclear physics, and for both phenomenological and formal studies in theoretical physics. We are embarking on a historic journey. Existing facilities, from JLab to the LHC, and the now-approved Electron-Ion Collider, will provide unprecedented opportunities and challenges to reach a new level of understanding of the visible universe. We can hope to answer questions we have learned to pose so far, and to realize fully the potential of these developing tools, new questions remain to be discovered.
