This volume contains the proceedings of the 24th Nishinomiya-Yukawa
Memorial International Workshop entitled ``New Frontiers in QCD 2010
— Exotic Hadron Systems and Dense Matter —
(NFQCD 2010)", held at the Yukawa Institute for Theoretical Physics,
Kyoto University, during the period January 18--March 19, 2010.
On the occasion that recent developemnts in quark-hadron sciences are
remarkable, we made extensive discussions in the workshop on recent
theoretical, experimental and observational progresses of hadron
physics, non-perturbative and condensed matter aspects of QCD, and
their relation to QCD-related astrophysical phenomena. Theoretical
developments in lattice QCD and AdS/CFT correspondence and AdS/QCD are
also discussed. Topics which are covered in this volume include
(1) Hadronic astrophysical phenomena
theoretical developements in low density nuclear matter, equation of
state of dense nuclear matter, signals of phase transition during
explosive and collapse processes, numerical simulations of compact
astrophysical phenomena.
(2) Exotic hadrons
multiquark states, hadronic molecular structure, role of light-heavy
flavors, scattering theory and reaction dynamics related to exotic
hadrons.
(3) Hadrons in nuclei
kaonic nuclei, nuclei with strangeness, meson-nuclear bound systems,
meson properties at finite density, partial restoration of chiral
symmetry, excited hadrons in nucleus.
(4) QCD phase diagram
QCD critical point, competition among chiral, deconfinement and CSC
transitions, experimental and observational implications of the phase
transition.
(5) Theoretical developments in quark-hadron sceinces
lattice QCD at finite temperature and/or density, baryon-baryon
interaction, hadronic resonances, AdS/CFT correspondence and AdS/QCD.
We had several review talks in the mini-symposia and several lectures
during the workshop by the distinguished physicists. This volume also
contains these review and lecture papers in addition to the
mini-symposium talks and selected seminar talks. We believe that this
volume would provide a nice snapshot of current QCD physics for
experts and would be a useful introductory volume for non-experts who
want to look over the recent progresses in quark-hadron sciences.
