Recent Advances in Hadron Physics

The Blois workshop has become, in recent years, a general particle physics conference, unlike the early workshops. The seventh workshop was no exception, dealing with the wide range of fundamental particle physics and new results in hadron physics above and beyond elastic and diffractive scattering.

The proceedings cover the most recent, exciting experimental results of diffractive physics from the Fermilab and HERA colliders and related theoretical issues, in addition to the fundamental strong interaction subjects, such as elastic scattering, the Pomeron, and perturbative and non-perturbative QCD. The interesting topics of heavy quark physics, effective field theories, low-x physics and new particle searches are also included.
