Abstract
- One of the most challenging topics in Quantum Chromo-Dynamics (QCD) for decades is the study of nucleon structure in terms of the fundamental QCD picture of quarks and gluons. Performing this study over a range of energies helps understand the dynamics of strong interaction, and gives a reasonable description of the transition from colored confined partons to the ordinary colorless hadrons. One of the best tools to study this transition is to search for the onset of Color Transparency (CT), one of the predicted phenomena of QCD. Color transparency refers to the suppression of final (and/or initial) state interactions caused by the cancellation of color fields in a special configuration of quarks and gluons with small transverse separation. I will give an overview of the CT measurements that were carried through the production of different hadrons at various energies, and highlight the future experiments planned for the 12 GeV upgrade at Jefferson Lab.
