Understanding the properties of nuclear matter and its emergence through the underlying partonic structure and dynamics of quarks and gluons requires a new experimental facility in hadronic physics known as the Electron-Ion Collider (EIC). The EIC will address some of the most profound questions concerning the emergence of nuclear properties by precisely imaging gluons and quarks inside...
After a brief introduction to the Electron-Ion Collider (EIC) and the Joint ECFA-NuPECC-APPEC Activity on "Synergies between the Electron-Ion Collider and the Large Hadron Collider experiments", I will go into examples of such synergies, focusing mostly on the QCD related ones: parton densities of protons and nuclei, quarkonium production, transverse momentum dependent parton distributions...
