1. GRC Photonuclear Reactions 2008 Took place Aug 10-15 at Tilton School, NH >100 attendees from >50 different institutions Contributors: JSA, NSF, Ohio State, Anonymous contributor Organizers: S. Jeschonnek, R. Ent, P. Pedroni Scope: detailed studies of the nucleon-nucleon interaction and few-body systems, structure of the nucleon itself and how such structure can be related to the underlying QCD dynamics of quarks and gluons Topics: current theoretical and experimental work on electron and photon scattering from nucleons and nuclei 54 talks (3 by students, ~35% Jlab), 33 posters All results shown are considered un-published – not allowed to be shown outside the conference

5. Theory Developments Mainz: Vanderhaeghen, Tiator interpretation of GPDs, N* properties Washington: Miller nucleon structure Lisbon: Ramalho s-wave models of N and Delta Ghent: Ryckebusch nuclear transparencies Giessen: Leupold in-medium hadron modification Jlab: Radyushkin, Psaker, Dudek AdS/QCD, truncated moments of structure functions, meson spectroscopy on the lattice arXiv:0807.4537

6. Non-traditional Developments Radiocarbon Dating and Biblical History Conventional archaeology chronology uses a combination of excavation (pottery etc) assuming that Biblical texts provide a good road map Issue: conventional archaeology chronology may be off by more than a century Using radiocarbon dating (carbon-14 sampling) introduces a modern and more reliable technique into the field Medical Applications: Medical Imaging Proton radiotherapy
