DESCRIPTION:The 8th International Workshop on Future Tau-Charm Facilities\
 , referred to as FTCF2026 will be hosted by Shandong University\, in Qingd
 ao\, China\, from 22 to 26 November\, 2026 (Registration on 22 November). 
 The workshop is the 8th edition in the series of the joint workshops on fu
 ture tau-charm facilities that was first held in Orsay (2018)\, and then i
 n Moscow (2019)\, Hefei (2020\, online)\, Novosibirsk (2021\, online)\, He
 fei (2024) \, Guangzhou (2024) and Huangshan(2025). It's worth mentioning
  that there have been International Workshops focusing on  discussion of 
 the Super tau-Charm Facility projects in China and Russia\, respectively\,
  which were held in Hefei (2015)\, Beijing (2018) and Novosibirsk (2018).\
 nIn the field of particle physics research\, the tau-charm energy region h
 as unique properties\, rich frontier physics topics\, and great potential 
 for scientific discoveries.  The next generation of tau-charm facility pr
 ojects have been proposed and extensively discussed. With a peak luminosit
 y two orders of magnitude higher than that of the currently operating Beij
 ing electron-positron collider (BEPCII)\, and twice the energy range\, suc
 h facilities will provide a key platform for deepening the study of the in
 ternal structure of hadrons\, searching for exotic states\, and understand
 ing the nature of non-perturbative strong interactions\, exploring the asy
 mmetry of matter-antimatter in the universe (CP violation)\,  and probing
  new physics beyond the standard model. The construction of the facilities
  will challenge many of the world's cutting-edge accelerator and detector 
 technologies. The workshop will bring together experts and researchers fro
 m around the world to explore the physics potential of future high-luminos
 ity tau-charm facilities\, review progress in accelerator and detector des
 igns and R&D\, discuss new ideas for accelerators\, detectors and data pro
 cessing\, and facilitate the formation of international collaborations.\n\
 nThe workshop program features plenary and parallel sessions covering the 
 following topics for future high-luminosity tau-charm facilities: \n\nHad
 ron spectrum and hadron structure\nFlavor physics and CP violation\nDetect
 or design and R&D\, novel technologies\nAccelerator physics and technologi
 es\nSoftware and computing\n\n\nConference Dates:  22 – 26 November\, 2
 026\n\nSunday\,  22 November: Registration\nMonday\,  23 November – Th
 ursday\,  26 November: Scientific Sessions & Talks\n\n\n\n\nhttps://indic
